    We bought 2-yr-old laying hens off a truck as they were being loaded to drive off. Their career as layers for a large egg production "factory" was over. The owner declared he was doing us a favor and charged one dollar per hen. I think we bought eight. We had chicken feed trays and water set on the floor of the hen house. Next morning when I went out toward the hen house, I could hear loud "tap, tap, tap" coming from there. I looked through the window. All the hens were lined up pecking at the wall!! They were expecting the conveyor belts of feed to be there. Anyway, it took a few days and they were no longer tapping the wall but pecking the food out of the floor trays.

      A very interesting observation. For a dollar a hen I definitely would have bought a bunch more. Why? Because I think some friends would take some of them off my hands and the rest probably five at a time, would go in the freezer. Don’t hate me, they would be well cared for before the freezer.

    1,884 lbs for Lady! She's so beautiful! Bree is so pretty. I'd say one reason Bree looks like she isn't gaining all that much is because she's gaining in height and it just makes her look thinner. But getting rid of the parasites in her gut will help a lot with her keeping weight on! Brenda, hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day!!!!!!❤

    Jim and Brenda, My guess is that Lady presently weighs in at 1925 lbs or 873 kilograms. I don't know who is more content in milking Pansy . Brenda or Pansy. The hand milking takes me back to the 1950's on my Grand Parent' s Farm on Prince Edward Island Canada with my Grand Mother hand milking a 1/2 dozen milk cows. They did invest in a couple of milking machines later down the road .

    Bree is looking good. Can't believe that Lady is almost ready to foal. I think that's great how good of a farm hand William is. How he, in between loading wood into his machine, he comes over and takes the scrap pieces off of Jim's side and puts them on the pile. What a great worker he is. Brenda did an awesome job too in spite of Skippy trying to "help". Really flat tire on the wood cart William was taking from. Pansy is looking good. Glad she's eating grass.

    • @AbleGoodman
      @AbleGoodman Před 25 dny

      FYI, the different Amish groups are vastly different from one another. Some are VERY strict, and others can use phones, tractors and other power equipment. The "strict" ones frequently "shun" the less strict groups/neighborhoods. The ecclesiastical politicians (church leaders) often believe their leaders' "rules" are more important than the Bible and the words of Jesus Christ himself. I couldn't go that route, and am hostile to that idea. It is anathema to many (probably most, I suspect) Christians. My deceased parents were Evangelical dental missionaries to South Africa, so it is easy for me to presume the Bible is wiser than the Amish Leadership. Among the Amish, some folks get "shunned" for simply refusing to "shun" their friends whom the local church leaders want them to "shun" for being "disobedient" (disagreeing with their group's ecclesiastical politicians.

She really looks great and ready to foal. Bree is growing nicely such a good looking young horse. Y'all work hard and the Good Lord will bless y'all. I will try to remember to pray for Lady to have a safe birthing of another healthy foal. I will also pray for y'all.

    I cannot thank you enough for telling the story about the worming syringe cap!! I did the same thing! I felt like a horrible person and I questioned my sanity! I found out that I had done it because my mare just casually and expertly spit it out like she would a pill lolol. It’s amazing how sensitive they are with such big mouths and tongues and how dexterous they can be. Also, you probably know this already but a dog can be very negatively affected by the medicine in worming meds so they shouldn’t allowed around the house when they are being wormed.

    Wow! I can't believe Lady is almost ready to foal!! So exciting!!! I hope you can "fix" this sweet cow! Others sure can mess animals up by not letting them be in their natural way. 😢 Nice video!! 💕

    Watching Brenda doing the milking brings back fond memories.I first learned to milk a cow around 8 years old.that was over 60 years ago.before school and after as I was the oldest it became my job and dad could turn his hand to other things.
