I've used old holey sheets tshirts gunny sacks and newspaper over my garden and mini roses love seeing the big smiles on all your faces when around your animals God Bless you ALL
Put those citrus trees on a rolling platform during frosts to make it easier to roll inside. I'm in Cali, they die in freezing weather. 🍈🍊You've all done ALOT so far, great job!👍👍
Love seeing all the animal's having the best life and honouring the ones for food is what it's all about! At this stage for the new ducklings without a mother for oils, they shouldn't be in the water if it's cold, they do need water to eat though. Cheers
I love listening to all the animals, and I love seeing Danielle's face when she interacts with all of them. The ducks are adorable. I loved when she saw them swim and said "Stop It". Lol.
Love seeing the animals!! The ducks are darling- when you said runner ducks- I started singing sesame Street’s “ Rubber Ducky - you’re so fine. Rubber Ducky you’re all mine.” A tomato plant like the suckers pinched off & pinch the top off. That way they put down a good root system & they bush out. They will put more blossoms on the plant instead of getting tall & spindly. 💜
Looking good guys. The rabbit feeders hook to the outside of the cage. Cut an opening big enough for the feeder part to be inside the cage. Also rabbit poop can be used for fertilizer at anytime, no composting needed.
The chicks look good. ❤️🌱🐥. No traditional farmer uses a chicken tractor. Most mid century farm models keep the birds penned up. We started raising meat birds in tractors after reading Joel Salatin’s book from Polyface Farms about growing meat birds to sell. We have used chicken tractors since 1999 (Y2K). Way better for healthy birds and no disease issues.
Even though it's exciting to see the little citrus trees produce, you should pull off the fruit for now so the tree can put it's energy in growing strong and getting established
You can take those lower leaves off the tomatoes and plant them deeper… all the little hair along the stem can be roots if they make contact with the soil. That way they grow stouter and wind won’t bother them until they are staked. As the farm grows, the issues appear..it’s all part of farming! Oh what joy when it all works! Danielle is loving all of the little ones and farm life. Anxious to see when it’s time to prepare these food animals, that will either make you true homesteaders…or just lovers of livestock. Good luck!
I’ve noticed that all the Crockers including Danelle try to do the right thing but it’s just the Crocker way . Always seems to me it works out . Keep doing things your way . Awesome .
Ducks are my favorite on my farm, besides goats, I have 10, I love them, they grow fast😀😀😀precious, mine have never mated with my chickens, I have a couple pools I change and clean every day but they are good and get along with my chickens, turkeys, goats dogs and cats as long as they grow up with them no problem, great addition to your ranch🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
I'm glad the animals are doing well and believe me, you won't be the first to plant early and lose a few things. Baby chick's and ducks are so cute 😍 Love ❤ yall
Love seeing all the animals. Was surprised to see the baby ducks. I know you have had rabbits before, but don't leave them out in the sun they will get heat stroke. My kids loss there rabbit because of it. As to the garden watch to see if it's going to get to cold at night if so put a cover over them. Keep up all your hard work.👍👍💖💖
You may have thought of it already, but go to you local restaurants and see if you can get their left overs for the pigs and birds, even check with you local grocery store for veggies and fruits. This will help with feed cost more than you think.
Back in the 80s my grandpa used to go collect all the left over fast food (burgers, fries, etc) from their dumpsters to feed to his pigs. They throw A LOT of things away. I doubt you could go do that now. Definitely have to ask. People probably thought he was weird and hungry. He was smart.
For that garden, why not build a wood frame to stand up against the metal siding. Attach the cattle panels to the wood frame and let it slant down to the front of the garden. You'll have to get some wire to enclose the ends. This will stop the dogs layng on it.
So glad i saw this video!!!! I'm in Muskogee and have 9 chicks in my bedroom with the heat lamp on and I"m tired of cleaning the enclosure. lol They are going outside today!!!
Try making a wet spot for the dogs to lay in. I had a heck of a time keeping Nikki out of my garden until I made her a wet spot and keep it wet for them. They will dig and lay there. You have enough chicks in there that they cuddle together at night and keep each other warm. I love the ducky.
If it rains, the chickens could get wet from being on the ground. Do you think it would be good to put a board across the bottom where you added sides to block the wind & rain? Maybe add some straw on the board for comfort & warmth? They sure are cute. I love the 3 new additions 🐥🦆🐥
Have y'all ever checked your water supply to see if it is potable, if it has and containments from living close to oil wells ? I sure wouldn't be using it for animals or for watering your garden! Also for your tomato plants since you have them close together if you have any cut off's from your cow panels you can use those for trellises and if you can obtain some used tires you could use those to plant potatoes! Keep up the good work!
Tropical fruit usually only grow in warmer weather no snow.tomatoes,bell peppers melons also cold weather is lettuces broccoli cabbage,rutabagas,carrots,greens,like collards,mustards,kale,turnips plant when most of the cold weather it at the end.
While the ducks are small place a large pan filled with water and with a ramp. Animal feed pan found at a farm store would work, something 18"-24" and 4"-6" deep.
With the rabbit you have to watch out for fire ants. Once you get the rabbit cage off the ground make trays to put under the cages. make them about 2" deep and add top soil in them. Than add about 2 dozen night crawlers they will help decompose the dropping and watch them multiple like crazy. Then you will be able sell the bait for fishing.
The yellow chickens that quack are boss! Lol We have Racers in Florida, they're definitely fast and don't do water like other ducks. Let's just say they skirt the waters edge and become food for the lizards... Love the laid back days ya'll have, enjoying life and your new beginnings! Love ya'll ❤️
The plants should be fine. If we get anymore freezing weather put a tarp over top. Pull off in morning. Also just sprinkling straw or hay over top of that nice fence barrier will save plants too. Also your rabbits and chicks in shade are pretty important. I lost a bunny from just a short time in direct sun as I was cleaning cage. Keep plenty of fresh water and chick starter to chicks
When the Dew berries bloom there is a cold spell. Always wait until after that “Blackberry Winter” to plant the tomatoes and warmer weather plants. Good luck!
Glad ya got the old truck back. Sorry it cost so much to fix. Packer is like Jared with his short smooth hair and Cowboy is like Jason, looks like he got hit by lightning and full of static 😂 God bless you all and keep you safe
Jared, Excellent idea to use the Cattle panel as a barrier to keep the animals out of the garden. Have you all looked into getting old vegetables from the grocery stores or farmer's market for the animals ? They would probably give them to you. My friend would pick up the vegetables from the grocery store and coffee grounds and old oil from restaurants. The coffee grounds she used for the garden and compost. The oil she burned for fuel. She purchased some heating system that uses recycled oil. She barely had to pay for any feed just treats for her animals. I thought it might be worth mentioning again now that you have this property and are raising animals again. If it looks like you'll get another frost, you can always try covering the plants with buckets or cut gallon milk jugs to keep them warm. Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you, your family and your adventures.
Hello from Philadelphia, Pa I am new to your channel and WOW I love everything you guys are doing on your Awesome Property. Also congrats on your purchase of the 60 plus . You both are so impressive. Best part is to watch you work together. Thank you for the great content. Can't wait for More!! Love, and Respect Barbie
Put a pan of water in side for them to swim in. Of course they huddle together, they're chilly. Use a heating pad to hide under. It is the warming tray where you put plants on. Heat lamps can cause fires. Enjoy. You're friends have many rabbits. Ask them for the names they raise. Maybe you could buy some from the couple.
So glad your chicks are doing well and the quacking ones also lol. Mine were older than yours so I thought mine would be fine without heat lamp and I lost them all. Broke my heart I lost 40 of them. So glad yall didn't loose any. I have two Cornish Cross that I couldn't bare to dispatch they were so sweet and my goodness they produce some jumbo eggs. I was told that the eggs would not be fertile but they are good egg layers lol.
Put some clear plastic the thicker stuff and keep it rolled up by the building on cold nights make a tent over plants make sure you water I'm good before it gets hot if you get the leaves wet and it gets hot that will damage the leaves try putting the tent 12 to 18 inches above the plant it could be that that's a really hot spot you might burn them up you might have to use that fabric I think it's called 50% shade for new seedlings
Are you going to build your chicken house up about three to four feet from the ground? So they can get off the ground. Might help when it rains. Did you ever patch the holes in the side of the shop?
Off the clock, dang I'm way behind. Hadn't seen y'all in awhile didn't realize I'm still another channel short yet. I'll be sure to add it . Need to go search Jared's too. Y'all have a wonderful day.
Hey honestly Crocker cte those peppers will be fine but it anything in summer like how people were saying that black metal being really hot for plants u can always stick some acre hooks on those window sills above and put a couple t posts in on opposite side of garden bed and put a shade cloth with a certain percentage and have a clip on both end like a carabean or key chain
All the animals look good, thanks for walking us around! EVERYTHING is looking great. You guys are doing an awesome job. Love the Crocker way of doing things.. Bright future..
pick the leaves 3/4 the way up, leaving about the top 4- six leaves of your tomato plants & then sink the root ball & stem 3/4 deep. it will protect them from cold & wind. they will root like crazy all up the buried stem. this also helps strengthen the plant if it's leggy or crooked. a little food; liquid fish poop from Tractor Supply, (thinned down with water) swizzled in the bottom of the hole is a nice boost in our okie red dirt...
I been wanting to go with high tunnel to grow gardening in &to start fruit trees ,from crazy Oklahoma weather. Just a matter of saving up and getting it built. Wish y'all best of best wishes. Love them baby animals 😍 . That's awesome guys. That's a duck, not a chicken lol
Interested to see how well the land reacts/recovers from having the animals on em. Justin Rhodes and Joel Salatin’s vegetation sure does thrive with the rotational grazing. Justin’s pigs have done wonders.
looking good crockers....the chicken coop and feeders are just fine....glad your garden survived as well...we never plant until mid may here in n.y. state but i think winter is about over...still have some cool nights but the days are getting in the 60,s and 70,s......Good job guys!
You can take clear window plastic and place over your garden boxes it will act as a greenhouse then after the cold snaps are over you can take the plastic off
Looking good guys!!! Absolutely love the new place!! Babies are sweet !!! Good to see you all doing so good💙🙏🏻💙. Keep doing you & not let the haters bother you💙💙💙
Check out the design of Carolina coops they are amazing a friend has one. He free ranges his chickens during the day and they go back in at night his birds winter fine in it and maintenance is a breeze.
get a whatever size container that the chicks and duckies drink water, they also like getting in the water as taking a bath. ducks love it as they swim in it.
I live in Louisville Ky and people that live hear don’t plant till after Derby after the first week in May . We usually have frost till then and rain .
You can look up your last frost date by your ZIP code. You might want to look at that I got one more coming I don't know about you guys. If you got jugs you can cut the bottoms out and set them over the top of the plants but there has to be a lid on the top or tape it. You might have to get you some chicken wire and some wooden posts and go around your garden. Got to keep the cats and doggies out.
Hey y’all, learned a shortcut in Bristow today. At 4 way stop at gas station when you get into Bristow, don’t turn left, go straight on Chestnut. No stop signs all the way through town until you get to 10th street. Then turn left. You’re welcome.
You guys are doing great. Chickens don't need heat lamps the generate enough heat. They always say you need grow light for starting garden stuff. I've grown mine without and they are doing great. Planting the rest of my tomatoes and peppers 🌶
Do you know of Hugel Kulture? Look it up and see if you can apply it there. It works well in raised beds also, watering troughs 2ft deep or wood sided beds.
Sorry about the garden. They’ll probably just take a little time to snap back. I’m sure it will all be ok. Wish I lived near you because I would bring you tons of plants that I start but Massachusetts to Oklahoma is a bit too far for that.
Good job saying Catossa right Jason! Congratulations! It was so funny when you all was calling the ducks chickens. I was going, ah guys those are ducks. LOL The plants will come back just cut off all the dead and keep them watered. The pigs have made themselves an awesome little place. All the animals look happy & healthy to me. Have an awesome evening. X's &
People need to give You guys credit you do know what you doing .. the freeze chances should be over usually by Easter so the garden and chickens will be just fine
I've used old holey sheets tshirts gunny sacks and newspaper over my garden and mini roses love seeing the big smiles on all your faces when around your animals God Bless you ALL

I love listening to all the animals, and I love seeing Danielle's face when she interacts with all of them. The ducks are adorable. I loved when she saw them swim and said "Stop It". Lol.

Looking good guys. The rabbit feeders hook to the outside of the cage. Cut an opening big enough for the feeder part to be inside the cage. Also rabbit poop can be used for fertilizer at anytime, no composting needed.
Just not real fresh cause the nitrogen can burn.
Rabbit poop is a “cold compost” you can use it right away
The chicks look good. ❤️🌱🐥. No traditional farmer uses a chicken tractor. Most mid century farm models keep the birds penned up.

Hello 👋dear, how are you doing?
People forget that weather affects animals and vegetation differently around the country and world.
Way to go Crockers!!!!!!

Hi Jared & Jason & Danielle 🤗 your garden & animals look happy & growing like weeds👌 I pick Hewy-Dewy-Lewy for the ducks🐥take care & be safe 🙏
I'm glad the animals are doing well and believe me, you won't be the first to plant early and lose a few things. Baby chick's and ducks are so cute 😍 Love ❤ yall
Looks like they all still show life on them … just keeping the dogs off will be the hardest part . So excited it’s all falling into place ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏼👍🏼
The farm is looking good. Love the baby ducks. God Bless you guys
Those baby ducklings are so cute, it's nice to see your farm growing.
They were scared to death.
What cute ducklings! And the chicks are growing so fast!! Rabbits looking good!! Those baby goats are really growing. The ranch is looking good!!

Hey Guys! Your animals are all looking great! So cute. Did you ever figure out what was screaming the other night?
Hey Gang, FYI>>>Rabbit manure is cold>>>can be used right away for your plants and veggie gardens...Cheers from Maine
I am absolutely enthusiastic, pumped, and love the sustainability of the ranch! Thanks for always sharing!!!
Thanks for sharing all the animals, Jason. It was so sweet when Danielle hold the little ducks to take their first swim

Everything is looking great on Shootdang ranch! I love all the animals.
Sending all my love You guys will overcome everything and and anything x
1 TBS of white vinegar kills any algae. Good for pet bowls too! Its what we do for our rain catchment
That's good to know. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, I did not know that...
@@lindam.1571 very welcome. It's very cool to put it in green water and watch it turn clear
So glad i saw this video!!!! I'm in Muskogee and have 9 chicks in my bedroom with the heat lamp on and I"m tired of cleaning the enclosure. lol They are going outside today!!!
Love the little farm animals. The ducks swimming...too adorable!! Have great weekend guys. Love you all. Karen 🙂
You guys are doing awesome with all your critters🙂💕
Don’t start with the click bait. Your videos are good like they are. Keep it real.
it wasn't click bait.
You know you wanted everyone to think the baby chicks died. Just kidding with you BTW before someone starts over thinking things!
@@nellmarie98 nothing died?
Love the video! Thanks for letting us see the animals! 🤗👍🏻❤️🤗

All the animals are looking healthy and happy, yah cant ask for anything more! :)
So much crap. You have obviously never seen a happy rabbit
@@noname-jv6ht Ahh a necro reply. Why yes, i have seen a happy rabbit, on my plate or in some stew. I was very happy indeed. Run along little troll!
OMGOSH I love Runner Ducks ❤️❤️... All the animals are looking extremely happy 🥰
Hello 👋 dear, how are you doing?
How is the soil? Are you improving the soil? The more nutricious the soil is the higher on the Brix scale the plants/fruits will be on.
The yellow chickens that quack are boss! Lol We have Racers in Florida, they're definitely fast and don't do water like other ducks. Let's just say they skirt the waters edge and become food for the lizards... Love the laid back days ya'll have, enjoying life and your new beginnings! Love ya'll ❤️

Great to see all the farm yard animals , thanks it’s fun to watch them .
I plant my tomato plants in March.. I cover them with a frost blanket and it has worked for me in Oklahoma ..
I put tomatoes in to soon 2 years ago and they got frost, but the plants came back healthier than before. Your plants should all be fine.
we always put a little heat lamp in for them. at night they would all snuggle up in a big pile.totes adorbs
i love seeing and listening to all the animals and you guys!! hi Jared, Jason and Danielle.!! love your videos and channels.!!
The animals all look they're doing great. Can't wait to see what's next.
I'm loving all the animals and they are their house and theirs care takers. Everything loving life.
So glad your chicks are doing well and the quacking ones also lol. Mine were older than yours so I thought mine would be fine without heat lamp and I lost them all. Broke my heart I lost 40 of them. So glad yall didn't loose any. I have two Cornish Cross that I couldn't bare to dispatch they were so sweet and my goodness they produce some jumbo eggs.

Those feeders work best when hung on the outside of the cage with just the part they eat out of poking through a hole in the cage
Get ready for some heavy winds !! today it has been over 60 mph where I live so you should be getting them tomorrow.
Don't you just love how almost everyone has advice on everything that you do 😆. Only on Shoot Dang Ranch could a person raise jackalope. 👍
I just love the animals guys,I think I remember Jared had a chicken raise some turkey's, great video guys
Hey honestly Crocker cte those peppers will be fine but it anything in summer like how people were saying that black metal being really hot for plants u can always stick some acre hooks on those window sills above and put a couple t posts in on opposite side of garden bed and put a shade cloth with a certain percentage and have a clip on both end like a carabean or key chain
Would cool all that right down
All the animals look good, thanks for walking us around! EVERYTHING is looking great. You guys are doing an awesome job. Love the Crocker way of doing things.. Bright future..
Hi guys. Just a thought. U guys need a green house. It wouldn’t take much to build one
pick the leaves 3/4 the way up, leaving about the top 4- six leaves of your tomato plants & then sink the root ball & stem 3/4 deep. it will protect them from cold & wind. they will root like crazy all up the buried stem. this also helps strengthen the plant if it's leggy or crooked. a little food; liquid fish poop from Tractor Supply, (thinned down with water) swizzled in the bottom of the hole is a nice boost in our okie red dirt...

You guys have been breathing New Life into that piece of property. It is looking very good ( and Spring adds to its Beauty). 👍👍✨
I like Larry, Moe, and Curly for naming the ducks.
You can take clear window plastic and place over your garden boxes it will act as a greenhouse then after the cold snaps are over you can take the plastic off
Looking good guys!!! Absolutely love the new place!! Babies are sweet !!! Good to see you all doing so good💙🙏🏻💙. Keep doing you & not let the haters bother you💙💙💙
You can always throw a sheet or towel over them to protect them from frost.
Loved seeing all the animals. Was lookin at the chickens & spotted the duck right away❤👍🇺🇸
Been smart loop pvc pipe over garden taped clear plastic sheeting over it as cold frame warm plant keep moisture in it open warm up.
Plant Marigold Flowers around the garden and it helps keep animals and bugs out of your garden! :)

My dad had a 2 acre garden and he would plant after the Easter snap. Cover with plastic or cloth to protect it
Do you know of Hugel Kulture? Look it up and see if you can apply it there. It works well in raised beds also, watering troughs 2ft deep or wood sided beds.
One big happy family. Enjoying seeing all the animals at SDR. Where is the rain when you need it lol
Those little ducks are So Cute!
Sorry about the garden. They’ll probably just take a little time to snap back. I’m sure it will all be ok. Wish I lived near you because I would bring you tons of plants that I start but Massachusetts to Oklahoma is a bit too far for that.
Good job saying Catossa right Jason! Congratulations! It was so funny when you all was calling the ducks chickens. I was going, ah guys those are ducks. LOL The plants will come back just cut off all the dead and keep them watered. The pigs have made themselves an awesome little place. All the animals look happy & healthy to me. Have an awesome evening. X's &
Try draping some clear plastic over them at night, and on cold days.

People need to give You guys credit you do know what you doing .. the freeze chances should be over usually by Easter so the garden and chickens will be just fine
