I'm so glad you did not fall. My husband was working fir a client, cleaning out their gutters.
He slipped and fell on his back on the ground. I was holding the camera videoing him. Now, to this day, he has a 8 inch rod and 12 screws in his back. 😢. Changed both our lives, and he aged at least 10 years.
Hi! I'm the lady that got you the canning stuff a while back. Can't wait to see if it works for you. I hope you got the link I left you Mel on your garden video. Hope it helps your garden flurious. Love your videos 🎉❤
As a former goat owner I feel impelled to let you know that your plans for an electric fence will not contain your goats. Goats are the Houdini of all livestalk and will quickly defeat an electric fence. It is my experience that the only way to contain them is with a welded wire fence at least 6 feet tall. Also goats are not the brightest animals in the barnyard. They will quickly entangle their leads around anything within their reach. Be prepared to constantly be untangling them. Putting them on a lead sounds like a good idea at first, but you will soon regret it. I don’t mean to be a negative Nancy owning goats is a delightful endeavor that has many rewards but you must first be able to contain them in order to keep them safe. Given that you have 41.36 acres you have some leeway before they get out to the street but beware they eat everything! Nothing is sacred they will clean out your garden in record time and they are equally fond of ornamental plants.and don’t worry about the myth that rhodendrens are poisonous for goats. Our goats completely inialated my rhodendrens and suffered no consciquences. All that said I hope you truly enjoy your new goats as they add a whole new layer if happiness to the barnyard.
One of the delights at the agricultural shows in Zimbabwe is seeing the plastic, iron and all manor of non fecal goat droppings. They literally eat anything, and are seemingly able to keep from harms way whilst doing this. I’ve never heard of goats being kept on a lead, however they seem pretty smart in not straying too far from the general area where they are supposed to be although they fail to recognise a fence as a boundary.
You took leaving a comment to a whole new level, a bit long in the tooth some might say. I mean wow, get a life!
The goats are in electric fencing already since birth. The ones the 41.36 are getting haven’t escaped yet, but one of the mothers and another baby goat has figured it out. But they do stick around and mow for groceries.
@@smokiedavinci she’s just trying to help, maybe she’s new to the channel and do not know all of what they are doing. I don’t see the need to tell them or anyone to get a life because they were communicating in a post, they really weren’t negative at all, so no need to be rude to them.
@@smokiedavincihey they are giving advice!
My dad had some goats, and learned quickly like the lady said about their leads. They also love to climb. DO NOT put anything near a fence or building. My dad found his on top of their barn one time and had to remove the items next to the barn and fence, because they will jump a fence if not tall enough. They are in fact very good escape artists. 😮 We still haven't figured out how some got out. Good luck with them, they are funny little critters and a joy to watch.😊
Great work the kid’s did cleaning the pecker palace😊Abe has grown up so much. I will never forget how when you were laying blocks he was trying so hard to help❤. The goats will be very Happy!! I donated to the goat fence hope you see it here ❤Aunty Laura🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
The kids helped a lot. Picking up all that gold. Next year's garden food.
Hey Abe ,Julia and Scarlet, you are all great helpers , proud of you .😄💕
Happy to see your kids doing some real work around their home. Hopefully more to come because you have a lot of weeds out there. When my son and niece were around seven and nine years of age, I taught them how to watch my hand and operate the wood splitter. I would load and they would operate the controls. Now she’s an environmental engineer and not afraid of doing hard work. 👍🏾
Respectfully that's not our business. MeL and Gary Great job.!
Hi Mel and Gary, have you watched K&S get out on CZcams. They have I think 13 goats that free range on their homestead for an hour or two a day. Worth a watch. They have also just made a little extension to the goat yard and used electric netting. Goats stay inside no problem
That's awesome compost for your next year garden that you're taking out of the chicken areas. Don't use it on fall gardens because it'll burn it up the chicken manure has too much nitrogen to use right away. But piled up in a compost pile getting rained 🌧️ on it'll be perfect for your Spring garden tilled in really well. 😁👍🏼
Hi CC❤ 🙏 🤲
@@evalinawarne1337 I got a new phone 📱 and sometimes I leave a comment and it just don't post or I have had YT erase comments for no reason. Don't know why the first one didn't post but I commented to you again hopefully it stays this time. Have a awesome God blessed day Evalina 🙏🏼😁👍🏼
@@evalinawarne1337Well evidently someone don't want me telling you about Mel's mom's channel cause it got erased again ! Wow 😲 Shaking My Head in disbelief .
Abe looks like he's been filming forever! LOL Love that take charge attitude. glad you had Mel there to spot for ya Gary!
It blew my mind at how good Abe was at videoing, especially at his young age! He's a natural. I'm so glad you will be using an electrical fence to keep the predators away. Can't wait to see your next video regarding your deck work. You two are so good at what you're doing. Thank you for continuing to share your lives with us subs.
My Dad and a neighbor bought two goats and with an electric fence enclosing a piece of land between both houses, the goats Cleared The Land. Afterwards they sold the goats. It was fascinating to watch the progress. 👍😍
The barn has turned into a great goat house. It will be great to see goats on SLR and CRC❤❤❤❤❤❤
Those goats are going to come in handy eating all the overgrowth around your yard and less weedeatin on the property
You have come a long way.
for the barn floor you can get rubber stall mats ,makes it so much easier to muck out and provides animals hoof relief. you can start a manure pile off the bank on the back of the barn, we did with our horses and reclaimed about 50 sq foot of creek bank.. it will compost down and you can use it in the garden as it seasons.
Go to a farm and garden supply and get a grounding Rod that you drive in the ground with a sledgehammer. Its a 6 foot long brass Rod and you drive it 5 foot deep. The Solar electric ⚡ fence charger has two places to connect 2 wires a Ground and a Hot wire. U Hook one connector wire to the Brass ground Rod you drove in the ground and the other connector you hook a wire on the charger to the positive & from there to your electric fence. I bought my solar fence charger at Tractor supply and It'll do 3.5 miles of electric ⚡ wire. You can get them to do different lengths, but take in consideration 3 strands of electric wire will take up 3.5 miles on a small piece of property probably 1.5 acres . So the more miles your solar fence charger is the more it will electrify. Unless you want to use your own electricity 🔌 Which will cost you to run it. So i suggest solar panel controlled fence charger which wont run up your light bill. Mine wasnt too expensive at Tractor supply for a 3.5 mile one, it comes with it's own solar panel to face it in a sunny area. But that's a smart idea going electric ⚡ fence because after the Goats 🐐 get zapped ⚡ they'll learn real fast stay away from that fence. I suggest get surveyors ribbon 🎗️ and tie a small piece on the sections of wire once they been zapped ⚡ and see that ribbon 🎗️ they'll avoid it like the plague 😂
OMG ABE SOUNDS SO PROFESSIONAL MAN!!! A FAMILY THAT WORKS TOGETHER LOVES AND PLAYS TOGETHER. I LOVE YOU ALL. XOXO
Good Job done by all.
Exactly right, Mel and Gary.... tether them where you want them to clear the area during the day and in the barn at night… will give you a ton of time to build an enclosure. I had only Boer goats on 23 acres and never needed an electric fence, at night we hearded them into the barn to protect them and their kids from the foxes. Cheers Susanne
staking them out is the best idea. the best and easiest and eco way of clearing out your brush....nothing goes to waste, not even using the gas to use a chain saw...
The kids are getting so big. Great little helpers.
The whole family did a great job🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I remember having goats as a child and we had a long driveway. They cleared it on a leash. We use small car tires filled with concrete and eye bolt. Easy to roll
Awesome video God Bless you and your family Amen
Yall all do such a great job!!
Keep in mind the 8-foot-or-so plastic pipe on the tether idea so they don't get tangled. I've never personally tried it, but I think it would work. And keep the goats just enough away from each other so they can't tangle up each other :)
You guys have a good plan❤❤❤
Thats some good livin right there!!!
Be careful having the goat clear the hill sides. Ground cover stabilizers it in heavy rain. Don't let the hill sides get washed away.
Good job with getting ready for the goats. I think you will enjoy them and have fun with their antics. It is wonderful to see you all working together so well. I saw the storm you are facing. It will be a lot of rain from the hurricane. I used to live in Houston, so I am used to the amount of rain you will face. I hope you have a power source if your power goes out. Stay safe.
Good luck with the goats. Looks like your ready. Thanks for sharing✌️🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
HELLO 🤗 Abe is a budding cameraman & the kids did a nice job on Pecker Palace 🥰 Good job on cleaning out goat barn & fixing metal piece on roof 😉 Gary, sounds like good plan gor goats 🐐 have a great day 🙏🇺🇲💖
Abe did an excellent job with the camera! Looking forward to the goats, too!
Hi Mel and Gary, I had a few goats a long time ago now. One would run to but me and was a great escape artist. It may sound cruel but he was a big old buck and very strong, he bowled and injured me a few times so I put a strong collar on him and a length of chain which was bolted to a round post that meant he had to drag it around, it stopped the escapes and I had a chance to fix fences etc with him in the area without being butted. You could say the old beast and I developed an understanding. Electric fences were annihilated by him and also the large kangaroos, you won’t have that latter problem though. You have predators to worry about which can do damage to fences etc whilst looking for a feed. Dave’s goats haven’t been too bad so I hope you have good luck with them.
Well, you have some great fertilizer for your garden and for anywhere you need fertilizer that was a great idea. I remember doing that with outside chicken coop for my uncle but the thing is the stuff was 3 1/2 inches 3 1/2 foot deep not 3 1/2 inches like you’re digging Stayed all winter chickens inside and they went outside and they were freeway birds they could go out anywhere on the 80 acre farm and free range bugs and everything else but you’re not doing with your chickens or your rabbits you need to put them on free range so they can go out in the open place and eat the bugs and the grass and everything else quit keeping them in cages that’s no good Thank you. This is Rabbi Turner thank you.
I love it when your boy asserts himself like an adult. He is quite precocious. ❤
Yes he is
Awesome Job Gary and Mel
Abe good job with the camera all three of you did a great job, your parents have taught you well. God bless sending love from the UK.
One thing I generally notice down in Arkansas compared to where I live in Central West Central Missouri is you always seem to have a nice breeze no matter how hot
Julia, Scarlet and Abe are great helpers. Abe is going to be a great You Tuber
Follow your channel regularly. Glad the kids are helping
They always help, I just don't put them on the channel all the time. People are weird.
Amazing children y’all have on 41.36 👍🏻🇺🇸🤠🇺🇸
U can use pallets in the barn and put plywood on top of the pallets.
If your goats happen to be trained to a bucket of grain they will follow you or come to you when you shake the bucket to get them corralled back in the barn. 👍
Still plan to do water catchment on the barn?
Y’all working hard kids 👍❤️
Love How the 3 Children Cleaned that Chickens pen & coop Up So Nicely & Worked Together.. GREAT JOB ABE SCARLETT & JULIA !!❤ Great Tubing Cameraman Abe!! 🎉 Gary at it Again Testing the Strength and Limits of 😮❤Made My Anxiety Go UP & little Mel holding You on that Ladder on loose Rocks & Gravel...Be Prepared to Enjoy NEW ADVENTURES with the Goats 🐐 ❤ God Bless & Stay Safe from SEVERE WEATHER & Possible Tornadoes 🌪 😮😢 ❤
Great vid again guys 💜💜💜
check out k n s get out on how they built their goat enclosiers and fences, hidden heights raises goars and blue cactus dairy goats is a supper chanel to learn from, especially if you are going to breed some. the eddy family farm also has a ton of goats on their place maybe get a few not relared to yours from them.
Yes all these channels are good
🐐 SOON. YAAYYY!
Gary, You are a beast, lol. I wouldn't have gotten on that roof.
Doing a great job guys
Yikes that was scary 😳.. Great job building it so sturdy 💪... I love the idea of putting the goats on leads 👍... Great Abe and Julia, the pecker palace looks great 💪❤️❤️
Thank you Auntie Ann ☺️❤ hope you're having a wonderful day today
Great progress!!!😊🎉❤😊
How you guys doing today hope you guys are having a wonderful day keep up the good work
Love your videos 😊❤
If you tie them out all day, be sure to provide water for them. I grew up in Arkansas and know how brutal summers can be. Really enjoy your videos
Far out y'all, man you get it, or rather you got it, there's a market for goat hide too, my circle drum is made with goat hide, ya'll are gonna have a blast. Keep on keeping on 👍👍👍✌✌✌💚💚💚
Thank you so much! We try our very best and are having so much fun learning as we go. ❤ Thank you for being here
Awesome job
At least you had a little breeze while working on the roof.
You need a sturdy 6 ft wire fence, electric fences don't work and they will eat everything including clothes on wash lines.
The barn and the area and plans looks like it will work great for the goats 👍
All that compost material oh you are going to have the best stuff for making great new soil for the fruit orchard. The more animals the more material to make great growing material for more acres of tasty goodness.
best garden fertilizer.
Looks good to me!
Loving the children recording them self cleaning awesome
I just started this video and I have to say…at least Gary starts out with a positive attitude. That makes the work a smidge easier!
Excited for you to get your goats or goat 🐐! Good luck with them ! 😊❤
He kids great job
Good job
Thanks!
OMGoodness! Thank you so much!! This is gonna help us A LOT! THANK YOU THANK YOU 🙏🏼😊🐐💚
@@SimpleLifeReclaimedyour very welcome. I sent you an email 🙏💕
That little spider looks like the golden weaver we have in Australia. The goats we had were never grazers but like to forage and like to pull the leaves from trees and still have feed them pellets
Great job on the up cycled barn. It cleaned out great and great job to the kids on cleaning pecker Palance .the children are growing up so fast. You have 2 beautiful young ladies and Master Abe. With lots of love from your crazy friend in ohio
Thank you so much John. ❤ They sure do grow up quick! I can't believe how much they've changed since we got here. All for the good, but bittersweet still too. Anyhow thanks for the love today! Sending you back some ❤ have a nice day today
You need electric wires out there bears and wolves.
The kids are growing so fast
I watch several homesteading channels and several have cameras set up so they can check on their animals at night or when there is a lot of movement in the animal area. Have y’all ever considered something along those lines to monitor your animals? ❤❤❤❤❤❤ excited to see y’all with goats.
looks great y'all... can't wait for y'all to get the goats and broadening the eats on the homestead
Dog run cables make great leads for goats if you're tying out. And I recamand using high voltage wire for electric fence if you deal with panthers and bears. My brother's favorite fencer was the Galager brand that he had set to keep the wild game out of his feilds were we kept all the live stock. Please not I may have misspelled the brand name of the fencer.
Good luck with the goats.
Abe is a natural with the camera, watch out mama, he’ll be taking your job soon 😂
Hey both of you
Hello y’all
Bells on goats sounds like a good idea to me.
Good job kids
you can actually have them up under the electric lines in the hay and blackberries and wood line. just walk them to where you want the fences. they train pretty good if you are consistant.
Unattended goats manage to get stuck in a tree split trunks or flipped over on a rope will choke and die. I heard this common story after we found ours upside down almost dead. The collar was choking her. After that she was always very quiet. We think oxygen deprivation. We never left a goat alone on a collar rope again without supervision. We were told after that it’s s a bad idea, because goats will manage to find trouble with a rope on the neck. I just read it now and it’s not recommended. Better safe than sorry… supervise them if you do it!
I like d music in the background when your son was saying what he’s going to do with the picker place and the greens
Your son is a gentleman👍🏽
❤️❤️❤️
Greetings from Northeast Ohio. Gary, while you’re shoveling, I had my hand over my nose lol
I have 4 goats now . I have goats before they are a pain (a$$). But I love them and got more. Congratulations on your new baby’s ❤Love your videos ❤
It's looking good might I suggest a 25 or 30 ft clothesline cable lead for the goats God Bless from your Canadian Friend.
I recommend putting gps tags on the goats just in case they do they go on their own walk a bout.
Good afternoon coffee… have a great day…
Love it when the kiddos get in there and help! Just one suggestion if it’s ok. When you’re doing chicken 💩 clean up, I’d wear some type of paper respirator. There’s alway the risk of breeder’s lung. I use to raise pigeons and always wore one.
i also watch another channel that have goats on THIS OF GRID LIFE on you tube and when the goats get to know you better you can take them on walks with you
Make sure the teathers are METAL (i.e. Chain or cable - anything else and the goats will chew through them.
Great reminder! Thanks 🙏🏼❤
Abe got this😂 he is putting you out of a job Mel❤💪
Can't wait to see your adventures as goat parents.
I made a fire with the compressed chicken hay, it burned for 3 days through the rain! The whole Valley I live in was filled with thick white smoke
Just a heads up the regular electric fence wire they will get out I know . I would just do woven wire fence and t poles and just make plots but you do your thing y'all doing a great job
