Cedar Hills Homestead
United States
Приєднався 11 лип 2023
A Montana homestead up in the Salish Mountains. We raise American Chinchilla rabbits, Nigerian Dwarf goats, Golden Comet hens, and Guinea fowl. We also hunt, fish, forage, and raise a pitiful little garden that is regularly wiped out by mid summer frosts.
We’re a family of four, and we live on the north side of an unnamed mountain. Our homestead borders the beautiful Kootenai National Forest.
New videos go up every Monday morning. 🫶🏻

How to Smoke Rabbit Hides on an Open Fire | Part 3 How to Brain Tan a Rabbit Hide with Real Brains
Переглядів 1 тис.14 днів тому
This is a super quick and easy way to smoke hides over an open fire. Materials needed to smoke your pelt: - wood, for the large fire (cedar is my favorite scent) - punky wood, to go beneath the pelts (again, I like cedar) - a tripod (three sticks and twine will work) - old cloth to make a smoke funnel, like a sheet, blanket, or a long denim skirt - clothespins, to hold the smoke funnel and pelt...

Amazingly concise. Well done.
great!!!!!
When keeping kits for breeding do you have a need to bring in other family lines. Is inbreeding a concern?
I used to have chickens, but then I decided to have ducks. Now I wake up at the quack of dawn.
Thanks for the great video! could you please send the exact grams/pounds of the alun and salt used ty!
Wow
A crazy amount of information. Thank you for breaking everything down for us.
Offtopic observation: I would love to raise chickens some day. If you can raise your own, maybe read up the new studies about seed oils. Afaik humans should not consume meat that is fed with those. Good things to humans to eat are for example: flax-seed, chia-seed (proper omega 3 and 6 ratio.)
Thank you, 10/10 video. Most videos I find on youtube waste your time or have clickbait titles. This was straight to the point, well thought out and explained with information I would have spent hours combing through ad filled blog posts for. Subscribed!
Hahahaaaaa ridiculous
$3.70 in feed, man that's a high input cost when I can buy a rotisserie chicken for $5.
I love that you assumed a scenario where the feed and grocery stores are shut down, but you're still paying for an $18 hunting license 😂 in a full-blown apocalypse scenario I might skip that
I raised chickens 20 years ago. Now living in Japan, I'm looking forward to raising them again!
Great content and great channel !! You will also noticed your content will get seasonal highs and lows... My channel is monetized, but much smaller. I made a video on building a chicken coop from pallets. It always spikes up in the spring. I have lost enthusiasm to make videos this past summer... May we will get back into it this fall on our small farm.
Thank you so much for this video! I’ve watched a few now and learning a BUNCH. In your other rabbit video you say you can use the pelt after 3-4 months. What makes you wait 6 months?
3-4 months is the most efficient, 6 months is when the hide thickens up (especially in winter like how I time it) and when the hide is as big as it’s going to get. I don’t mind feeding them longer for that but some people will want to do it earlier, it’s all preference 😁
@@CedarHillsHomestead thank you for your perspective! Keep up the vids you’re doing amazing!
Holy crap this was AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for putting in the time to make such a well put together video. Seriously impressive. This video will help so many!
Some comments/questions 1. That jelly looks so delicious! 2. THOSE BISCUITS look divine. Are you willing to share your recipe? 3. Your joke about the sugar gave me a good giggle. 4. Is Kitty a Rock Star? 😉 5. I really appreciate how you share your joy with us, messy kitchen and all. Thank you
Wow this is not what I expected I am amazed at the information packed into this video thank you so much!
Try swapping the sugar for honey. I had the best apple sauce recently that i ever had in my whole life. And it had 0 sugar in it. So now i experiment with honey instead of sugar. (I don’t have sugar canes… yet)
That coffee looks weak
Awwww! Thank you so much for this. I'm curious if the same process works for other fruits? Like mulberries, blueberries, and strawberries? Also, Hello Kitty! (I make pet rocks with my little one, too) ❤❤❤ Much love from Michigan ❤
yeah pretty much just boil strain sweeten and thicken to taste
I just make a syrup and my husband adds it to water to drink. He loves it! We didn't get too many this year, but there were lots last year. Hello Kitty!
Hello Kitty!
You are the kindest, thank you! 😁💖
@@CedarHillsHomestead Greetings to your daughter, the artist, as well!
Hi, where would you recommend finding wild grapes in Maine? Thank you!
I don’t believe you have Oregon grapes but you should have Vitis labrusca (Fox Grape) in your area near the coasts. Check the shores of lakes, rivers, and wetlands, the edges of forests, and area with dappled sunlight. They pop up in recently disturbed soil too.
and if you can't find them spread them yourself these ground cover wild berry bushes are adapted to growing in rough conditions
Soo much information here!! Thank you so much. This could be a book.
It’s not cannibalism if you feed your chickens, your enemies 😊 everybody thinks that they are going to be able to find nutrients and they are going to start a garden if there’s going to be an apocalypse what will happen is you will be too afraid 😧 😱 😳 And worried about eating your neighbors, cat, 🐱 and dog 🐶
I have 3 bunnies as pets, but i'm still not yet okay with making them live so little time should i be raising rabbits to eat them one day (but it's me applying human morals to farming, not very practical, i agree) But anyhoo! I'd love to raise animals in the future, that way i'll know exactly how well the animal i'm eating has been treated and i know they won't have been suffering like cattle suffers in slaughter houses in their last moments, so big thanks to you mam!
I love how info dense this video is and how quick you go through it. I've had chickens for a decade (always a small flock of around 5) and since I buy feed from the store I never really knew how much acreage a flock of chickens would take to feed! Those figured of the wheat, oats, and peas were mind blowing. I've never looked into raising bugs for chickens, but I wonder if it would be worth purposefully letting a harvest of wheat get contaminated to grow maggots or mealworms or whatever
I absolutely love your content and the kind-hearted way you approach everything you do. Your videos are so well thought out and always packed full of information! You are such an inspiration to those of us who want to live a life more in balance with nature. Thank you for enriching our lives and being brave enough to do what you do on this platform. ❤Much love, from Australia.
How much firewood you go through the year? Also how you make the heat reach all the areas of the house you need to be heated ?
Just plant 2-3 trees for each tree you cut. Should be fine. You can also plant trees you prefer and can grow in your area. So don’t try to grow a mango or something with all that snow. 😅
The squirrel probably thought it was saving some sort of Australian squirrel who came visiting. 😂 What an odd behaviour.
I wish I could like twice :)
I honestly would love to have any recommendations of books of historical journals or letters like the ones you mentioned in the video.
BTW, this is the first video of yours that I have watched. It really struck me how "professional" your voice and your delivery is. VERY clear and precise. For what it's worth.
This video is an amazing resource! Thank you for all of your hard work.
Great video
We could have it all, but the pedos that run the world say "billions must starve"
Thanks, very nice presentation.
Thankyou so much for all the work you put into this video. You made a mind boggling topic easy to understand and doable.. Very much appreciated i feel inspired❤😊
Loved your breakdown on everything, learned so much! Thank you!
Really well done 👍
Watership down anyone?
This was AMAZING. Your labor over doing the calculations alone is commendable. Also fascinating that there’s no smoke and mirrors around chickens’ diets but humans seem to be tricky. Thank you for this
I too have American Chinchilla rabbits, awesome that you blirred you boy out, creepy world now🎉
So Un-American. Wow, the first ever video by an American on UA-cam, where every sentence is pure information. James seem to love their voices! And opinions, and and and and, lengthy boring videos with lots of nothingness. Excellent job on this video. This lady knows her stuff and shares it in world record time. Well done to you.
Wow I saved this as ABSOLUTELY BEST CHICKEN GROW INFO😊 I would definitely like the Rabbit info as well. Thanks so much .😊
Really grateful i stumbled upon your channel 🌟🤟
Thank you! Great information, I'd love to see similar for rabbits and maybe ducks or Turkeys.
THIS IS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO SELF SUFFICIENT CHICKENS that I have seen in nearly 50 years of raising chickens!! Wow, thanks for putting all this info together in one place, absolutely a gold mine of everything a person needs to know.
