"It's part of me now" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 one minute in and it's chaos already. I'm here for it.
😂😂😂
I know, I'm dying laughing. 🤣
I needed a good safe laugh right now 😂😂
Butterfinger 🤪 Broken window 🪟 what a day Glad it ended with a delicious dinner 🥘👵🏻👩🌾❣️
😂😂
Butterfinger 😂
You two are soulmates. Nothing more needs to be said.
Nailed it
💯 talk about finding a compatible partner!
Your opening scene was a hoot, a real treat to see you two making each other laugh and being playful.
totally agree
I love the silly side!😂
yeah
Now there’s an observation on life that hits the mark. “It’s so funny how they can go from little tiny chicks to these ruthless chickens.”
You two never have a dull day! Amazing watching you move that heavy structure.
It might sound weird but I love when you guys make mistakes. It shows how human you really are and you let us all know that not everything you do is peaches and cream. You also show what happens when those mistakes are made and that it’s not the end of the world.
The best intro EVER. Laughed so hard. Loved the night shot of picking chicks out of the tree. 😅 YOU GUYS ARE ROCK STARS!!!!!❤
The beginning was hilarious. I have to tell you I was a bit disappointed you didn't eat the butterfinger on camera LOL. I always breathe a sigh of relief when you finish a project like this one. I love, love, love your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your lives with us.
You can't make a cake without breaking a few eggs or in this case, you can't move a coop without breaking a window! Wonderful video as usual!
My goodness! That was a lot of work!I don’t know what would be worse the claustrophobia being under the coop or the bugs all in your face. Well done, team!
i'd say both!
Chickens are like memory foam mattresses, they get used to the same old things, and takes a minute to see the changes. They'll be fine, given a few days and food. Sorry for the window, I tried yelling you to stop...lol 😂😅 Love ya'll ❤
Your tenacity to get it done!👍The coop looks good over there! Whew! Lucky chickens to have such great caretakers.😊
Thank you for sharing your Alaska adventures.😊
Well, never let it be said you two aren’t “influencers “. As soon as you mentioned butterfingers I put you on pause, went to my grocery order for tomorrow and added the butterfinger mini’s. 🤣. Then went back and finished watching your splendid adventure of moving the chicken coop! Hugs to you and the furbabies. ❤️
You two are very special. Please keep your videos coming !!!
Im a city girl, and gasped at the stuff in Arielle's hair,
the window was a tough one also.
You two make me laugh.
Eric's line " as usual we are winging it."😂
That is a classic example of how to adapt and improvise, also the mushroom sauce looked lush! Well done you two!
As an undergrad I was tasked with the dendrochronology (counting tree rings) of tamaracks that were killed in a freakishly cold winter in a local bog. I would have trunks no more than three inches across well over a hundred years old. We had to use a microscope to count the rings, some which were only one cell layer thick.
If you take coffee grounds and bake them until they start to burn and then sprinkle them around the area you’re working in it will help to deter the mosquitoes. The coffee doesn’t necessarily have to be burnt if you don’t feel like taking that extra step. Burning them just makes a stronger odor that they don’t like. The smell hides the odor of fresh blood making it more difficult for the mosquitoes to find you. I’ve always had success with this method.
Wonder if this might also work for those small biting blackflies! Nothing else seems to!
The mosquitoes find You by detecting the carbon dioxide that you exhale.
Wow, you two would have made great Egyptians moving big things with logs. I am so impressed with the way you get major things done by yourselves. Your chickens are so lucky to have you taking care of them. Please be safe. Till next time...
I don’t think there’s anything you two can’t do😮
Yall are a joy to watch!! Love the care & love you show your babies!!
You two are better than any comedy team ❤️❤️❤️. And you still put out one heck of a high quality video for us!!!! #1 you tubers👍
I have a whole new appreciation for the term ‘chicken sh!t’ 😅
Also I love when you guys say ‘I don’t know how we’re gonna do it but it needs to get done so we’re gonna figure it out!’ ❤❤❤
I didn't even know that windows were still made from simple glass like that. Thought it was all safety stuff and argon-sandwiched panes.
I also love watching chickens act like mini velociraptors. Another great episode! 👍🏼
Those are some OLD windows!
@@ThePjl110That's what I was thinking...
@@ThePjl110 I hope the cleanup was thorough. Thankfully, there were no injuries.
Those are old windows they got from a friend who wasn’t going to use them. 😊
I laughed I cringed and got hungry. You guys never disappoint. I’m sorry about the window but you guys handled it gracefully as always. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
I just said a similar thing the food! Leaves me starving. I say that every time they make food! Lol, they have not fixed one thing that I would not eat 😅
Another great video of life in Alaska and
have a wonderful weekend y'all.🤠👋🇺🇲
A heroic feat of engineering.🐓 That coop was no small task to move. Kudos to you for a job well done. You had me drooling at the end over that fine meal, I could almost smell the deliciousness through my screen. Thanks for some of the best damn videos on YT. 👌
Eric and Arielle have the most beautiful chickens on the Interwebs ... Prove me wrong!
Lovely to see Pepper's cameo and some bee shots as well. Never a dull moment, especially with "jack frost" nipping at your heels! Thank you again for sharing life, hard work and laughter; always a treat to spend this quality time with you two.
OK my dudes after seeing you guys move that chicken coop with no fear I’ve come to the conclusion that you can do anything!👏👍☮️😁❤️
YUP! That's what I said too!
Awesome! As always I'm glad to see a new video from you guys. Thank you for the shot of Pepper. I hope both of the dogs are doing ok. Hows Bo doing with the kidney disease? At least with all of those trees cut down you have more fire wood for next year. it will take a day or so but the chickens will get it figured out and be all back to normal. As always plenty of luck and blessings to you all!!
Kitty and puppy clips are always good. :)
What a job! The coop looks so good in the new area. I love that you can see it from your front porch. ❤️
That rooster is gorgeous!
You guys are the hardest working and most productive homesteader couple ever! Nice job! That chicken coop is awesome! Thanks for sharing such wonderfulness each week. I always look forward to viewing your channel.
Chicken’s are looking good. They are going to be snug as a bug in a rug come winter. I like the way you moved the coup. Than was genius. Can’t believe your getting your first frosts. Summer for you guy’s is over in a flash. We here in the U.K. had a mini heat wave last week. That felt really weird for September. Thanks for the video, it was super enjoyable. 👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙👍🩷💙
“Ruthless chickens” = Raptors. Great job. Keep going. “Winter is coming. “ 🥰🤗
Never a dull moment with you two. Is there anything you won't tackle.....total admiration for you both....thanks for all the entertainment...🤩
Well, that was a major pain, but I dare say you did better than I would’ve. Another great video guys!
Omg~ what a shocking beginning to the video! 😂
I love the natural comedy timing y'all seem to have. that wrench exchange got me.
Thank you for producing some of the best content on CZcams!! Funny, heartwarming, inspiring, educational, family friendly...simply the BEST!!
I've watched every video you have made and love that you have shared your journey! You are an amazing pair and your skills and talents are incredible!!
There's NOTHING you two can't do with your experience, intelligence, common sense, resilience, teamwork, and motivation...and now with the Branson tractor, you are unstoppable!!
I think I speak for many when I say that you two are the best of what is real and good in America!! Stay safe and keep letting us share your dreams.
Love and prayers to each of you, Eric and Arielle, and to Bandit, Bo, Pepper and the beautiful chickens! ❤️🙏🏼‼️
I love the way you attack a project and that there is a plan B. If this doesn't work you figure it out! Eric you like my dad, have the knowledge and ability to carry on when others might get another person to do the job. Eric you look nothing like my dad, but you remind me of him when you're working around the homestead. My dad had "nervous energy" ADHD, when working be it building, growing food, cooking, fishing and hunting, you have that can do attitude. Todays video was a good one. Until next time much love and many prayers. 💖💖
Butterfinger! Boy that brings back childhood memories. Sorry that you had to replace that window. But, otherwise, all in all you accomplished a great deal over two days. That looked like hard work. I really love your work ethic. I enjoy watching Eric cook. He’s really turning out to be a great chef. Y’all come up with the best recipes. Perfect example of “farm to table” cuisine. I hope the chickens are settling into their new coop location. Enjoy the fruits of your labor. Great videography as usual. Sending love and blessings ❤️🙏🏼
I am a senior and have seen many things including wars but never a God blessed hard working team like you two. Yes, yes you’re twins souls indeed. You are absolutely great, humorous and loving.
Perfect watching you. Thank you for giving the world the best example of living a life in perfect harmony. 😮😊❤
I had no idea the chickens would go up in the trees, yikes! I'm glad you were able to get them all rounded up also! That mushroom gravy looked so good, my mouth was watering😊
Chickens native habitat is forest & meadows.
Yep I’ve had to rescue my chickens out of trees. Not as tall as those tho 😳
I will never look at a butterfinger the same. 😂😂😂. Great job, you two. ❤
Yay to Arielle for cutting down your first tree. Huge job moving the chicken coop you accomplished so far. Your dear chickens are so loved. On a ladder reaching into a tree to get chickens out of the tree. So thankful yfor you both that ou bought your Branson vehicle/tractor.
Big job moving the coop, but you got it done. My daughter used to raise chickens and she also had to pull them out of the trees occasionally. The salmon, potato and mushroom dinner covered with gravy looked so good! Well deserved after a hard day's work. Your videos are always so interesting. I enjoy watching you tackle all the different projects. Take care.
It's remarkable how you both work so well together! My husband and I probably would NOT lol. I love how you rescued your chickens instead of just leaving them for the predators. Your videos are awesome 👌 👏
Well, you've gathered mushrooms, berries, rose hips, and now the chicken trees are ripe.
HAHAHAHA!!!
My goodness kids, what an ordeal! RIP window! I cracked up about the stuff in Arielle's hair and she said 'It's apart of me now!" lol! I bet that was no fun brushing out! I clapped for her when she downed her first tree! Maybe the title should have been "The Chickening" hehe. As always, fantastic video and yummy meal.
I love how you keep this "PG" cause when the strap broke and the metal loop broke, that "gosh darn" that Eric likes to say would have been "$#%^&!!" from my mouth! Great job... love watching your guys video... watch them like a favorite TV show!!
I don’t think there’s anything you two can’t do. You two are very special. Please keep your videos coming !!!.
You two really work as a team. Perseverance! Good video
I'm surprised that you're surprised that the chickens were confused. They are, after all, bird-brains! 😄 Perhaps the foam insulation is the chicken's bubblewrap - you just can't resist popping them! You really need a chandelier for that dining room, to add a little class! 🤣
I believe they need some bar stools on the porch, what a view to eat by, love the ambiance ❤
You guys are the epitome of Alaskan, you find a way to get the job done, improvise, overcome and adapt. Well done.
Incredible videography again, as usual !!! And as per usual ... mission accomplished. Sorry I laughed at you ,up ladders in the night, fetching roosting chooks out of the trees 😂 With a smashed window as the only casualty in that chicken coop move, I'd class that a huge success !!!!!!! You work so well together Eric & Arielle, you compliment each other so beautifully. That half hour went way to quickly and I'm on rewatch mode already. The frost, altho beautiful, is a sign that winter is def closing ìn. I hope you get all the winter prepping done on your chicken coop in time. Thankyou again for a wonderful insight into your Alaskan life on your new property. Until next time: be well, be happy, be blessed xxx from this old Nan from Down Under who loves you 2.🇦🇺✝️🤗💞🙏👌👍✌️👊👏🇺🇲
I've watched you two do some crazy things, but this one had me holding my breath. Every time Eric stepped across the taught chain I feared it would snap...oops! Then there's the chicken crap and wild woman of the woods hair....lol. Great content!
That's a beautiful piece of property. So the chickens are right out in the open what about the birds of prey? You two work so well together it's just a joy To watch you guys get stuff done. God bless you
They said they are making a run.
Arielle is a true woman of the north. No flowers in her hair for her! She went with moss and twigs! I’m glad you got all the chickens back inside and safe. I liked how you could see the chicken coop from your porch. It’s easier to keep an eye on them. Congratulations, Arielle on your first tree cut down!
You two just have extra fun to replace fear, I am always inspired by watching you!
Those silly birds!! A beautifully built coop and here they are nesting in a tree! Bird brains! 😂🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
🤣🤣🤣🇨🇦
That’s what birds do 🤷♀️
15:35 The way you picked the chicken from the tree and the „here you go“🤣🤣🤣👌🏼💚
You two are a go get it done team! You're doing it on your own terms and it usually works out great. Another great video guy's. Thanks for taking us along. Ariel, you are one tough, brave woman. You don't let anything or anyone stop you.
I thought this video was the best one yet!! You two seemed a lot more animated which was awesome.
What a beautiful parade of colorful chickens! They would all be my pets. Love the new hair style! You guys have got frost in the morning already! It was 85 degrees here today in Washington state. I remember, when I was young, and we would go camping. We did all the things out doors, and by the time dinner rolled around we would all be starving, and it didn't matter what the food was, it tasted like a gourmet meal. The amount of work you two put out in a day, you probably burn off all the calories with no problem. Awesome video of another successful chicken coop adventure!
You talk about the dynamic duo. These two are my heroes. At my age I'll never get to do these things but I get to watch these to perform and it's absolutely amazing, love y'all be safe
Literally laughing out loud! I'm going to have a t-shirt made that says, "Let's just do it and see what happens!"😂😂😂😂
❤
I truly love the life you both have built. I look forward to your videos every week. Thank you for putting your life on CZcams for all of us to live it vicariously.
Jeanne
Hi Alaska I am very happy you are back again I really love your show and I really love your animals and I love your dogs I will always praying 🙏 for you so you will be safe ok you have a wonderful day and have a good night and day ok love Lorilee xoxoxoxox
I never tire of watching your videos. They are always so great and I will agree with the other person that said U2 were so late you worked so well together and play together laugh together and that’s what’s important that’s really sweet I’m 74 and I’m loving it and Santa Rosa.
Love the intro to this one…made me giggle with you laughing at Eric, and making him laugh continually…lol…but best part was hearing you say “it’s part of me now” and just accepting it, as all the brush and moss was stuck in your hair…you handled that gracefully, and it actually looked kinda pretty! 😂😅 love seeing what you guys create and cook!
Wow got super excited this just popped up and I happen to be bored and looking for something to watch. Never a disappointment.
Awesome video! I don't think there's anything you all can't do! Can't wait to see the next video! Take care & stay safe! 💜🙏🥰
Another great video today. Eric is right about the coup looking good in the new pasture. Dinner is yummy looking, reminds me of when my Mom would fry Lake perch or smelts. I was surprised at the frost but your season is so far ahead of us here in north west Indiana. Nice to see the bee's are alive. Peace Hope Love 💕💖
That intro made me laugh. Great to see you adapting to your new environment to such a degree that Ariel is now also growing lichen!
The chickens continue to have the best life. Great shed, lots of space, so many sand baths, and now even more insulation against the cold! I hope that in combination with the heating will work wonderfully this winter.
I LOVE the nature shots you include so often. You really have a gift in cinematography. And we are blessed to see such beauty where you live.
Great move guys, love how you engineer on the fly!!!!
You two are the epitome of "play hard and work hard." Your projects are complicated and you never shy away from the challenge. David and I look forward to every episode. Thank you so much.. Lee
I was super excited to see you had a video today. Love all you're doing on your property it looks great.
Oh no! The brand new window!
Chickens just don’t get moving day and Eric nailed, the do grow up to be ruthless.
Only one window damaged, I say that was a complete success. The building made the move whole. I can’t say the same for myself when we moved ours, it caved in on itself. No chickens were harmed and spent a day or two in the trees roosting until we were able to make a new chicken coop.
Thanks Guys, great movie. The chickens will be very happy going out in the winter in the high tunnel. Put the high tunnel where you want to grow potatoes or your garden. Great start for excellent soil condition 👍👍.
I absolutely love the both of you, I've been watching all your videos for 4+ years and I look forward to the next one every week! I moved to remote Alaska 7 years ago and I'm looking forward to my 10 mile ride into Talkeetna to get a butterfinger! Great job both of you.
I could watch your films for hours. They are so entertaining, wonderful directed and cut, so peacefull, so funny, so interesting. It‘ so calming down watching a hen laying an egg. Unbelievable! 👏🐣🫶 🐔
Great hairdo!!
One of my favorite teams!!😊
How do the chickens like their moved home!?😊
They are all settled in and back to enjoying life :)
@@SimpleLivingAlaska Hooray for the chickens! That would be a bit upsetting to see your house going across the yard! Glad they are settled in!
And again, when it comes to moving big stuff, you guys prove it that you are unbeatable! Amazing job!
U guys are amazing and work so well together. Thanks for sharing guys always a pleasure 😊😊
This is the best start to your videos you can ever do.
I laughed lot 😂
Thank you
You two sure do not let the grass grow under your feet. So refreshing in this day and age!
I appreciate and love the way you both work together. Living (stationed) in Alaska for 3 years now and we love it, but tours come to an end. Next year, summer it's it. We're also from California, but southern California. Again, one last winter for us. Maybe we'll see you both in the ice. Hopefully pull out a Lake trout as that and a sheefish are the last to harvest. We love Alaska and respect and love the beauty. Thank you guys for the amazing content.
Thanks for another great video. It's great to see you take what's around you and making it work.🙂
The moss in your hair...'oh can't get it out, its part of me now'....absolutely hilarious. Endearing that Eric was attempting to groom his love...by the way, how long DID it take to remove all the twigs, moss, etc? Great teamwork, you guys!
love the laughter and especially loved Ariel's new 'do'!
Aww, guys never move the chicken coop without the chickens contained. I learned that lesson about the same way you just did. It does look good out there though, they’ll all come back, there going to realize that there’s not as much food in the forest as there is in the coop. Thanks for the video, Jimmy.
Fascinating to see you moving that heavy coop. Luckily you had a spare window. Awesome update as always. 👍
Great job guys. I know I’ve said it before but you amaze me. Your not afraid to do anything. Your a joy to watch. Thank you for taking us along on your adventure. Take care. Looking forward to the next video. Love you both👍❤️❤️🇺🇸
Honestly, I’m really happy when neither of you get hurt during one of your major move or construction jobs. Another great job you guys! Congrats Ariel on your first tree!
You both are such a loving and caring and special couple and you both deserve each other I am so happy to be member of your channel I really appreciate you both letting me join you I love you both God keep on blessing you both awesome video but so much hard work
Always wondered how I could confuse a chicken. Now I know. You do learn something everyday. 😂😂😂
I had been given a homemade coop a few years back. When I did some alterations on it and had to remove the foam board in some areas, they were infested with ants. Tunnels everywhere throughout each foam board. I'm in the upper north - east of NY. Hopefully this doesn't happen to you guys. But over time if it seems colder on the inside you might want to check them. Beautiful birds.
I love this couple.They're working together very hard and get the job done.
