The rain sound when showing your deck garden was wonderful and peaceful. Great idea on the dehydrated and powdered potatoes. I followed your directions and dehydrated some of my garden potatoes but they are pretty hard. I really like the idea of powdering. I also lightly cooked diced potatoes and froze. Makes great country style breakfast fried potatoes. So very gratefully for you Heidi !!!
seriously adorable little sprouts !!!!!
Great this n that! Cute chicks!
Heidi, I took your information for dehydrating meat and love it. So I am a van dweller and have been using food grade fabric bags and nut bags to dehydrate friut, veggies, ginger and such on my dash. This has been very successful for years. This summer I tried dehydrating cooked meat and it works excellent even on my dash. I probably would never had thought to try meat if you had not talked about it. I have tried to dehydrate broth last week but that was not a success however I will try again. Keep up your amazing videos. Peace, Love and Freedom 🇺🇲
Happy to drop by 😊
Your deck garden is beautiful!
Thanks Heidi 😊 ❤❤
All those chicks 😍🐓
Thank you Heidi! 🙂
Blessings! 💜
I totally agree with you on the experience thing. If I've done something for 50 plus years and never had a problem with it I'm probably not going to change.
Glad you brought up the roosters. Listen love, good neighbors, especially in these economic times should be accepting of a few rooster calls. I don't raise poultry, but my neighbors do. I'm fully aware of the fact that most of that noise will end in 5 to 12 weeks when the roosters graduate to freezer camp. I don't let it bother me. I don't live in a graveyard for Heavens sake. Being a good neighbor goes both ways. God bless and keep you.
Oh gosh, your hen that runs into your arms and cuddles right up just made me all gooey inside. One of my roosters, Butterscotch, does that, he'll just snuggle right in and relish the cuddles and sleep. A few of my hens don't mind being picked up, but no one cuddles like my Butterscotch. I just love when chickens do that. They are just as cuddly as cats, in my experience.
Very informative video! Thank You for sharing, and GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES.
You are one one of the most respectful people I know and there is no way you would insult someone for doing things their own way. And yes, there are canning Nazis and basically all kinds that are "by the book" with regulations and food safety with go above and beyond and sometimes just silly rules.
I loved watching Patrick's video and looking forward to more. Such a time consuming job, but so worth it! Enjoy the process!!
God bless!!
G’day Heidi, sound information as always 🙂🪴🐣
When my mom and dad retired they moved to their home I. The country. They had a blueberry orchard for several years where people would pick their own. My dad typed up recipes on his old Royal typewriter and mimeographed copies and stapled together to make cookbooks for his customers.
Hope you'll do a Heidi & Beatrice hugging video. So cute!
We recently lost our first rooster Ricky Longsong, he was the best! He was considerate of the hens, docile and handsome. We have 6 or 7 roosters which we are going to take down to 2 or 3. We tried to rehome, but no luck. Our broody buff is on her 2nd batch of eggs for this year, and her last 3 pullets are hanging around the garage for another week or so before we move them to the chicken yard. We have buffs, cinnamon queens, and Delawares, but the buffs are my first and favorite hens. ❤
Shalom
Oh my Heidi... Just noticed your going to 400 K subscribers! Congrats & TY!
Technically, I should have been there several months ago but thanks to this platform stomping me down and hiding my content from many, all my analytics have dropped to a third of what they once were
Dehydrated cabbage, carrots, onions, celery, all Greens including lettuce are realky good. Swiss Chard easily rehydrates and the stems are my favorite. Dehydrated mashed potatoes would be nice to thicken soups. Dehydrated peas are okay, they are mushy by the time they are rehydrated. You are blessed to have elk on your third property. Thanks Heidi!
Thank you! 😊🌱💚🌻🐝🐓
Awwwwwe. how Precious are those babies.
I look forward every week to your this and that videos ❤❤❤❤
Thanks Heidi
Thank you!!
It is good to have cooked dehydrated potatoes in this days
I really enjoyed watching Patrick clearing the land. Im going to try dehydrating potatoes!! Thank you Heidi!!
Looking forward to the blueberry update video and trying colcannon from dehydrated goods. Have a lovely week!
I' m 80 in Jan.I can a lot like my grandmother and mother.My food keeps 2 years.
I have been getting on a Yorkshire pudding kick here lately. I want to try making it just to see what I can do with it. Have a good day.
Take care!
We recently experienced our first time having a broody hatch some chicks. 3 out of 5 were alive and well. Such a wonderful and beautiful experience. I really enjoy your channel, thank you for sharing your life.
Just a comment to help out😊
But I'm waiting for the potato video!
I hatched out 8 of my eggs earlier this spring and got 5 roosters.
I ended up culling 4 of them. But not soon enough. Seems the boys mature faster than the girls and I lost 2 hens because these guys were so aggressive and chased the hens all over. The 2 I lost wouldnt return to the coop and nights here are full of predators. PLUS.....all my hens stopped laying because of the stress.
Funny thing is....2 of my hens went broody after they started laying again and I gave up on the battle of locking them out of the nesting boxes because the drive was so stong they were throwing themselves against the wire around the coop to get inside. Each hatched 2 chicks and as far as I can tell all 4 are hens.
A 3rd went broody a few weeks ago. Mid hatch, she stole another egg to add to the 2 she had under her so it is about 1 week behind the other 2 that just hatched. It shows development but ahe abandoned it so I'm incubating it, and praying she accepts a younger chick if it hatches out.
I have an el cheapo incubator, rather basic and I've adopted the dry hatch, no turn method and it has worked great for me.
yesterday i had 8 chicks hatched, 1 naked neck i was so hoping get one. I have 2 manna pro Harris incubators, wow price double since got ours.
we gave our garden rest and lots tomatoes and squash some other things still came up.

I like to hydrate my dehydrated mash potatoes in bone broth instead of water.
For me it depends on how I am using them
Culling 13 roosters tomorrow! We did 14, 2 weeks ago! Food for the freezer!

I love your channel. 😂But my least favorite chickens are buff. God Bless
Are you or Pat finding some surprises on the other property like edible weeds, flowers, berries, etc? Mushrooms? I know you get Turkey Tail on your other nearby property.
He has mostly just been working on it, I have only ever been out there once but did not see anything at the time

Heidi, I tried to grow marshmallow from seed but no success, maybe you can make a video on how to grow seeds that are hard to grow.
I don,t know your zone or situation, but I got 2 nice new bushes by 'winter sowing' in zone 6a. leads me to think marshmallow needs cold stratification. This was the first year for them and I look forward to seeing how they do next year. Wishing you all the best.
I know I have shared it in several other gardening related videos but would not remember which so I will make sure to cover that in next Monday's This~N~That
Do you have a video on how to enter new chickens both half grown and grown to the flock?
I cover what I did and o in the video coming out in a few weeks that I had mentioned
I usually put the small chicks in a smaller cage in the coup with the big ones. After a week or so I prop the side up so they can get in and out if pecked on. After they get along remove the small cage.
One way to do it, that had worked for us, is to put them in the coop at night when the chickens are sleeping. The "old" chickens wake up in the morning and just accept them as always having been there. We've introduced them in the middle of the day and that didn't work very well, especially for the roosters.
@@utopicconfections5257we do the same. Any moves are done at night, but we do let the small ones get a little size so they can better defend themselves if needed.
I fortunately have my coop sectioned off into 3 smaller coops. Only one has a covered run so that is kept open for the established flock. My middle one is turned into a nursery if a broody hatches eggs just to segregate the teeny tiny ones till they get big enough that I can see them and not step on them doing coop chores. The 2nd or 3rd is used to put newbors in the coop for a week or 2 so they can get use to seeing each other. When i do let the newbies out to free range, i let the others empty out of the coop and open the door later to allow the newbies the option of going out too. I notice they tend to form their own separate floocks and dont really integrate until the newest ones lose their cheeping voices. Cheeping just seems to paint a target on them for the older hens to bully them.
Will Pat ever go Elk hunting on your other property? Ty.
If he happens to have time during elk season, which is pretty short, but we still have a freezer full of deer, elk, and beef so I would not be interested in him getting one this year
🌸🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌸
How long does it take for a baby rooster to start crowing & are they still considered a baby at that point? Ty
It really depends on the breed. Mine were only about 3 months old at the most. Some can take 6 months
Can you plant just your grape seeds to grow more grapes? Is that possible to do? If so I would buy your seeds. Ty
I am sure one can though I have no need to do so as I get far more than I can use in even a couple of years just from my three plants
🥰🤍🐤🤗
Do you prefer dehydrating potatoes over freeze drying them?
I do not own nor want a freeze dryer so it is dehydrating for me: czcams.com/video/j4XNsip1vmY/video.html
@@RainCountryHomestead tyvm. I'm so grateful for all that you share! I appreciated the link and am jumping in to see all that I have missed in your library
