  • MAJOR Winter Storm Farm Prepping- Part 1
    We are on a crash course with a major winter storm and we have to get ready. The prediction is for heavy snow over the coming days.
    Planning for all possibilities like losing power, no heat and being unable to get off the farm are all things we have to think about.
    One of our major concerns is feeding the animals. The goats, chickens, pigs and cow will all need to eat.
    The storm is about 2 days away so NOW is the time to get ready.

    Your fields look great 👍 , the storm will not last forever. It will melt . I live in ny the snow isn't the problem it's the cold . Thanks for finally showing ( or letting be on film ) Angel and your better half SANDRA. Lol 😝. The nipples might freeze 🥶 like mine do nearly every day. I use a torch to Thaw them out. We also just fill the rubber made bowls with water . Great idea for feeding now ahead of time . You might want to make some kind of overhead shelter for the pigs, especially the little ones with hog panels in the corner with tin or tarps on it and some hay. Just a thought . Well glad to see you r videos . And glad to finally see Your 2 girls 🤪 Todd

    Two cattle panels tied together and covered with a tarp makes a good shelter for pigs. I cut a panel in half to cap one end. A few T posts anchor it in place. Pigs really need some shelter from harsh weather.

  • @Harvesttimebluegrassgospel

    Hey Chuck you can unroll with your hay spear. If you are on any incline at all but even in a level field you can drop your roll and go to the side and push it to get it to unroll. Only bad part is there will be lots of waste because you don’t have enough cows to eat at least 1 roll per day. It’s hard to put out just enough but it is possible. Farm is looking great by the way.
