    The heifer has to be bred and have a calf before she will give milk that's going to be a while, plenty of time to pet and love on Peaches.😊❤hope your time with your gran was cherished time . Welcome bk

    • @modernhomesteadalaska
      @modernhomesteadalaska  Před 9 měsíci +1

      You know what’s funny I would have never thought you would need to tell someone that they only produce milk after giving birth. However my neighbor boys came to meet her. They had never seen a cow in real life until her. But I grew up with them I forget (I shouldn’t!) that not everyone knows about live stock

    You exude such a caring spirit. This entire video was a testimony to such. You are taking off to care for Grandma, you meal prep for the care of family, chicken care and comfort done, same with Peaches and the pups. Assuming you are back home from your trip. I’ll need an update on Aaron’s success moving all the stone. Until we visit again….

    Wow. I can’t believe how that pile of gravel froze like that. I think I’ve definitely underestimated how cold the ground gets. Absolutely amazing! Great job on all the souping with friends. Im finally catching up on videos. Peaches is so cute and growing so fast. Have a fabulous week sweet Jessica!

  • @WillowsGarden
    @WillowsGarden Před 9 měsíci +6

    Hi Jessica and sweet family! I know you where rushing around like a mad lady trying to get everything done before your trip. At one point I thought you looked a little stressed.
    Please take care of yourself, I know your cup runneth over, but they will be fine. You’ve got a wonderful husband and responsible children that will take care of things.
    Peaches and Roberto are adorable.
    Just wait till Kodie sees how Blu cried for his mommy, just too sweet.
    Have a safe trip and a blessed day everyone!

    Hi Jessica, good to hear, Wyatt is recovering from his accident enough to wrestle. You are the cookingness {is that a word?} person I have ever seen. This is the best time of the year to clean up cow poo, lol. Your calf is very cute and it was fun watching the calf and Roberto sniffing each other. Thanks for sharing and have a safe trip.

    So happy Wyatt had a fantastic recovery! Aaron has his work cut for him with that pile. The way the tractor is lifting off the ground is a bit scary. Growing up on a farm, we would hear stories about people getting crushed under tractors after a roll over. Question: what’s that on the poor chicken’s back? It sort of looks like it’s molting but also has some red stuff stuck on the back?

    • @modernhomesteadalaska
      @modernhomesteadalaska  Před 9 měsíci

      Oh thank you. The chicken has a saddle it’s c at liked. The old rooster pulled her feathers and it protects her from the others pecking at her. It’s protection

    • @modernhomesteadalaska
      @modernhomesteadalaska  Před 9 měsíci

      Yeah I have addressed it. He is a collage athlete with the hopes of making an Olympic team. There are no issues. He is off at collage and lives on his own and works and all that. We don’t have him on the channel because he asked to stay private. And we respect several family members who say they don’t want to be on the channel or social media at all.
