      We actually got so tired of pitchforks, shovels & garden rakes breaking I contacted a guy we bought a shovel from at one of the local festivals a few yrs ago who hand makes the metal parts & uses extremely hard wood for handles which he cuts/shapes/seasons/treats himself. We bought 2 of everything...which wasn’t cheap...but I know someone who bought a shovel from this guy’s dad over 25yrs ago & it’s used heavily daily & looks brand new. They also guarantee their tools. So worth the investment if you can find someone who makes them using the old ways! My guy also includes a jar of the maintenance sealant to apply once or twice a year to the handles just using a cloth. My little great-niece actually left one of the shovel on the concrete behind our truck & my hubs backed over it while the truck was heavily loaded & other than a very light scratch from the rough concrete you can’t tell anything happened! Something similar happened with one of those I believe harden, reinforced synthetic shovel handles & it cracked & splintered badly. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think these may last long enough to be passed down a few generations.
      - I overheard someone tell my guy that he was “crazy” for making tools which last so long bc won’t make much money from repeat customers since they won’t need new tools. Which my guy said that “It’s wrong/immoral to intentionally make something which will break in hopes of selling more as replacements”. Which I 100% agree with! Im pretty sure tool & other companies now days purposely make tools/products which will break in just a few years. Just to help insure they keep making more money.😕🤷🏻‍♀️ If ALL or most manufactures of a product do the same thing by making a product that doesn’t last...not only does it mean people just accept that’s how long that product is “supposed” to last *AND* they can charge extremely inflated prices for any higher quality product they make guaranteed to last longer than the avg current tools.🙄 Even when the cost of making said product is no higher than the cost of the lower quality products they make!! Or *at least* any extra cost making the higher quality products is *far less* than the increase in consumer price. Capitalism strikes again!😒
      I *get* wanting to make lots of money but...nowadays it seems like more & more companies are working together to actually *lower* the quality/longevity of various products across the board so that consumers both get used to/accepts that’s just how it’s supposed to be &/or just so consumers don’t have hardly any other options!!😡 IMO it’s morally wrong & bordering on theft when all the manufactures come together to essentially *cheat* consumers out of hard earned money by only producing low quality products! The same applies to sellers who agree to inflate prices for various items across the board!(gas prices are a good example!) If a fair amount of the extra generated profit was going to the workers...it wouldn’t be AS bad. But no...instead workers get less & less paid vacation/sick/maternity leave(esp compared to other countries!) & most companies try to not keep many longterm(thus higher paid) employees as it costs them less to constantly higher & train new employees at lower pay rates.
      So it’s only those at the very top of such companies & their top investors which profit. Makes me sick!😡 It’s rapidly getting worse in the US meaning things both cost more & have to be replaced more often! Meanwhile the average income here only increases a tiny bit each year or so. The gap between what the US gov considers a “sufficient living wage/income” aka enough to meet all basic needs and the *Actual* cost of living is *Steadily Growing*!! That’s what happens in a country where Capitalism is regarded as more important than nearly anything else...the rich get richer & nearly everyone else gets poorer.😕😡 Something has got to change soon bc if not we are heading towards having extreme problems.😕
      - Sorry. That’s my rant for the week.😂
      Just so frustrating!🤷🏻‍♀️

      @@roguewolf7053 I am not sure making crappy products is a tenet of Capitalism, but I totally agree that quality does not seem the priority. My refrigerator I bought in ‘94 lasted 25 years. It was still going strong until a dang rat chewed it’s refrigerant line in two. My new one was quite expensive and it is about 3 years old and has had the ice maker replaced three times! Kudos to you for finding a craftsman to make your yard tools. Most of mine are around 20 years old and still going strong. There seems to be a larger plan afoot to keep everyone in perpetual financial need due to always having to replace everything from coffee makers to washing machines.

    Sweet lady. Please don't "Seriously Sandi" on yourself!! You have to understand: 1. that as a human you have limits. 2. when you push those limits things will happen (tying the barrier to the wrong part of the bunks). 3. your own self talk has the ability to make things better or worse. So when things go wrong, start using better self talk to set yourself up for success! Just saying! We love you, things happen, let it go! You know your family loves you either way - and we do too, so give yourself a break! Try, "I can do better, this won't happen again." Try, "It's dangerous to overspend my energy, I won't do that again." Try anything that makes you feel better - and sets you up for future success, and immediate relief.

    Ok for the winter breeding-if babies are coming early can you make a mini tarp barn type thing with some tarps that will allow you to keep the early group warmer? Because then you could bring heat in and the heat wouldn’t just float to the ceiling. there are some safe space heaters you could use. Don’t despair! There is a solution for every problem :)

    • @bethmccormack5172
      @bethmccormack5172 Před 3 lety +9

      That’s a really good idea. I have a tarp style high tunnel greenhouse that’s 12x12 and it stays warm inside. The only problem I can think of is if it condensates during the day. That might ice on the inside at night and drip water drops on the babies and bedding during the day.

    I love how you can easily change and setup pens to fit the needs of your sheep depending on the time of year, lambing, sorting and everything else. I only found your channel last week and I know next to nothing about sheep or farming beyond what little information learned in school, reading, and now CZcams, but I can tell that your sheep are very happy and well cared for. It is interesting to see how they interact with you and seek you out whenever you enter the barn. Noah is a perfect example and so cute to watch as he tries to talk to you and get your attention if you’re doing something else that doesn’t include him or you’re filming something and he is in the background talking up a storm in hopes that you will include him and give him snuggles.

Can be portable , and set up on the side of the lambing pen . ..Put straw on the bottom ,or cut off the bottom and utilize the floor of the pen . Mom still gets to bond and feed her baby ....As soon as the lamb is dry and warm ,can be removed ....

    Hi again SANDI
    Good stats with this group but I still do think the very best part is that things seem to flow better and with much less stress.
    Well nothing you can do about the breakout. Boys will be boys ya know lol!! You'll find out eventually and will have to make the best of it. Not the end of the world or something really tragic. Hope the weather would cut you some slack if necessary...
    Thx as always for sharing especially the close up of little Bella. Oh so cute and cuddly. Enjoy that extra morning sleep you can get now yay!!!!

  • @NiaJustNia
    @NiaJustNia Před 3 lety

    Could you set up heat lamps for the winter or do a ventilated poly tunnel over the lambing pen to keep the heat in better during the winter but minimise condensation? Essentially like a mini version of the barn inside the barn, but with maybe the occasional heat source. I think bottle babies in the winter/early spring having a heat source from either a lamp or storage heater might be good as they can't snuggle up to mum for warmth.
    It would probably be more pleasant for you too to not be so cold!

    You really are a rare breed my dear. Im amazed every time I watch your videos from your strength and determination . I thought something bad happened from the title so I stopped everything to watch it. I’m just glad it wasn’t too serious and you shouldn’t beat yourself up about it. We are human and entitled to make mistakes. No one is expecting you to be perfect. You run around most days like a chicken that lost its head. Lol! You need a real long vacay! You and the hubby should go away somewhere tropical for a couple weeks. I know that’s nearly impossible for farmers who have to keep the wheels turning at all times but after harvest and lambing, you need to take a break. I’ve seen stress take out strong men from executive positions that suffered and ended up developing into ptsd which some never recovered. My now ex at one time was the best thing in my life until she couldn’t handle reality after a time. It killed me cause I couldn’t do anything about it. Being totally helpless and being pushed away almost broke me entirely.
    I would have to remind her to take the some to smell the roses. Life isn’t worth continuously beating up yourself. Find a zen place to just zone out.
    Hope you guys have a great weekend,

    like we complain about manure videos🤣
    when your cuddling Bella you hear a funny popcorn sound but you don't see jumping boys in the background so you might have just caught them as it happened🤷‍♀️ but your right even animals are children...when the noise level is diffrent they are up to something🤣
    btw...when are you going to fix the mirror on the telehandler? you brike it with the bale of hay like forever ago🤔is it hard to find one?

    We had always to leave the hay whole winter. So the moisture goes down and they are always dry. At the and of winter it was half a meter high even higher. So they are always warm and dry. And in the corner a headlamp. I even slept on that and it's really warm and dry. It's only when it's not high the pee of the sheep and goats are going into the upper layer. But you always have to put new straw on top. They were always healthy big lambs. I find these lambs always very small. We had texel sheep.

    Just saw you video on the garage cleanup. To make it so Banker boxes will stack you have to stop using grade 1 (staples/office depot/ any base level brand) and move up to grade 2 (the brand banker box) then you can stack 5 High as long as start in a wall corner, keep and use the Lid, and DON'T over pack the boxes.
