My Dire Wolf
Переглядів 2262 місяці тому
Follow along as I explain what a dire wolf is and my acquisition of this amazing canine from @direwolfproject You can find their website from their UA-cam.
If you are not staying with m names I would have said stormy for the curious one, perhaps and stream for the sweet one. The circumstances when you got them seem appropriate. Apparently Marka is an Indian name for steady rain, and Makani is Hawaiian for wind, Moani is Hawaiian for gentle fragrant breeze. Just thoughts.
That is so creative! Definitely going on the list. Thank you!
Very important advice that cost nothing to observe, but can cost dearly if not done before purchase. Thanks for the acronym... Twisted Cape!!!
Yep, you've been twisted.
Good morning, this is Manny. I would name Bella and mario, Say hello to your brother and your father.😊
I already have a Bella. I think you'll recognize her😉 ..watch for her in future videos!
There are Mist flowers and May flowers. How about Misty and May? That sounds cool.
Great ideas. Added to the list. Thank you!
Those are pretty names
Yeah I like Marigold too. There’s also Myrtle and Mimosa that are nice. That was some serious rain 😂
Great suggestions! ..And yes, serious rain indeed.
How about Mithra and Maverick !!!!! please picked these lol
Thanks for these name ideas! Certainly going on the list!!

can't hear you
Thank you, with all the crap going on in the world right now, it is so nice to have a good chuckle! Stay blessed.
Thank you! I'm glad it made you smile :)
To me it seemed that the dog was happy about the stick more than the leaves. A very canine reaction.
Yes, he really loves sticks!
Given I don't pay attention to plants much, I'm impressed by your knowledge. Say, is jam the kind with the fruit bits in? And what is "tart" in terms of flavor? Sour or something like it, maybe? I know tart is a type of dessert, but I'm not familiar with other meanings of the word. P.S. I love your montage music choice, it's calming. :D
Jam is where you mash the fruit whereas a preserve has whole or nearly whole fruit. The fruit was pretty mashed by the time I was done with it. Tart is describing a flavor profile. It makes you want to pucker a bit. Imagine a lemon and how sharp the flavor is and how it makes your mouth water. Sour is not as intense and has bitter notes. At least that's how I would describe it. We all taste differently.
@@twistedcape I follow, thank you very much. :D
It's so awesome getting to see you do this after having you tell me so much about it. Such a cool homesteader
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
2:12 Made me slap my right earbud off my head. Those mosquitoes get ya even on a UA-cam video.
They are everywhere this time of year, including in my videos.
❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊
Hi there!! Amazing to meet you, your brother and your farher Charlie. It is wonderful to learn from you guys!!! ❤❤❤
New follower here and supported
If Google is correct 100°F is about 37-38°C. O.O I hope all of you have enough to drink. P.S. What the Hell are people thinking when they try to breed animals of clearly incompatible sizes?! All that will happen is that everyone involved in the process will suffer, especially the mom and the offspring. I'm guessing they also mourn the loss of their young. - Your girl seems to be doing well, but it must have been difficult. :( Hm, do goats accept hugs? I know dogs don't appreciate human style hugs because they feel boxed in. Not sure how that would work with goats.
They didn't do it on purpose as they had no idea they could be bred at such an early age. An accident, but yes still tough on the moms. It was a while ago, but she is okay. Not really a hug, but cuddles. They like to come over and lay next to you or lick you. It's Iike their version of a hug :)
@@twistedcape Ah, I follow, thank you for clarifying. :) I thought the bad breeding match up was intentional. My apologies if an accusation was thrown around needlessly. I guess it's just incredibly easy to sympathize with animals as they might not have a choice or even fully understand what's happening to them in such situations. - That has to be incredibly scary. Oh and thank you for notes on how goat affection works. :D
Great job!
Love your videos! So cool to see Acacia too! I have a twisted question. I hear there are many things in the wild that goats can’t eat. Do you know what everything is in your fields and woods? I will be buying a farm soon and want to have goats. I have read a lot about how to raise them but I have learned more from the videos I watch like yours. How do you identify the things in your fields?
Depending on where you live, your local agriculture department can help. I'm not aware of any noxious plants in my field and have never had an issue. Be careful tho as some ornamentals like azaleas may cause an issue.
@@twistedcape thank you for the taking the time to answer. I will definitely take your advice. Kiss the goats for me!
Awesome vid love the herd yikes ticks ,don't need that, lyme diesase and other stuff the goaties don't need. can you treat your land for them?
You could, but we don't because we don't really have a problem. What you saw in the video was a surprise to me. As a side note we have guinea fowl and they are suppose to help by eating the ticks. Clearly they missed this one, lol!
Definitely interested in more information about the breeds especially the long-year pigs.
Noted!
Hi this is is Barb B from McPherson KS. I have followed Blue Cactus Goats 🐐 on and off in the last 6 or 7 years maybe a little longer I just know they were the # 1 videos I started watching. Now I have added you to my list of Videos.❤❤❤ I like both names Throe or Tucker
Hello Barb and welcome! Thank you for commenting and being here☺️ ..I hope you enjoy my future videos!

Hm, are guineas related to turkeys? They look a bit similar to me, but otherwise, I haven't heard of these birds before. They might look small, but I'm guessing by their build they can rather quite fast. P.S. What are the whitish-brown growths hanging from the tree?
They are related as both are game birds in the order Galliformes. That hanging stuff is Spanish moss. A real common sight here.
@@twistedcapeThank you very much. :) I think I'll head to Wikipedia next to get the basics down. It's always cool to have a new research topic. :D
I see they appreciate being petted, nice. :D (Though I'm personally biased towards canines first. :) ) Say, do such small breeds usually not have horns? I can tell Thor is somewhat bigger than his female counterpart, but outside of having it pointed out to me that he's a male goat, I'd likely mistake him for a girl with the lack of horns. XD Or do female goats also have horns? ... How does all that work? (It's rather late at nearly 11 p.m. here and I'm a bit confused now.)
All goats, boy or girl get horns. Some of them, like Thor, are naturally hornless.
@@twistedcapeAh, I see. Thank you. :) I guess relying on that as a cheat sheet might work better with bovines or sheep.
Call him TNT, as in Tucker -N- Thor
Haha! Good one.
I didn't think funny songs about chickens were a thing, but here we are. Most well done. :D
Hm, they might appreciate the request to pass along some petting once they get older and more used to being handled. Say, is it like humans for animals in the way that some individuals hate being touched while others adore it? And is there an etiquette for petting domestic animals? With dogs and cats, I think I have it down with letting them sniff me and letting them approach you at their pace, if they seem comfortable (dogs are usually more open than cats and will usually go towards you if they like touch, with felines it's best to wait until they demand to be petted to be sure); but I don't recall having tried to pet a pig or a goat, given I live in a city.
Petting a pig and goat is life goals! Highly recommend!
@@twistedcapeDuly noted. I'll check if the local zoo has that option. :) Is there an approach that's different from cats or dogs, or will what I already do suffice? Asking so I won't spook the little ones by accident. I'd prefer to be respectful and ensure they feel as comfortable as possible - animals deserve personal space and their boundaries about it respected the same way people do. :)
@@NiceLittleWolfie your approach sounds perfect. Animals often let you know how they like to be handled. Respect is key.
@@twistedcapeUnderstood, thank you very much. :D If I get confused, I'll ask a zookeeper for advice - animals mostly go with body language on such matters and my autism sometimes makes me confused about how to interpret non-verbal ques (be it from animals or people). Though I've learned a lot and have come a long way. Plus, asking is a safe tactic that ensures everyone is on the same page. :)
Animal facts? Yay! :D I'd like more, please. :) However, I'll stick to admiring them like this, as I don't have the appropriate space for an outdoor animal. Also: Babe's spot as the cutest pig may be in danger. :) Say, how DO you make sure they don't sneak away?
Lots of animal facts to come. :)
@@twistedcapeAwesome, thank you. :D
Hello, I come from the Blue Cactus Dairy Goats YT channel! Idk why, but I could've sworn that Acacia was Tucker's mother- I went back to check, and nope, his mom is Trixie, who looks a bit like Acacia. I was pretty confused when you mentioned breeding them, lol.
Yeah, they do look similar. Trixie is really gorgeous too, but I definitely wanted an unrelated pair for breeding.
Yeah, I was concerned, breeding a mother and son is not a very good idea. Glad I was wrong, I'm sure their babies will be beautiful!
I love Tucker I came to watch Tucker from Blue Cactus Dairy Goats and Acaica’s adventures
Cool. You've come to the right place!
I was just about to ask who or what Blue Cactus was, my thanks for the context and channel recommendation. :)
Congratulations on winning 2nd and getting to blue castic goats I've followed them for many years
Thank you! I feel so lucky!
Those floppy ear ones are so stinking cute!! LoL ❤❤❤ they are all cute, but the floppy ones with the wrinkles is 😊😊😊 lol
Haha, yes they are cutie pies. Like puppy pigs!
