when it comes to hard work you sure get after it.the good lord has blessed you with health foresight and the ability to share.BIG THANKS TO HOLLIS AND NANCY.
Suggestion: Throw some ground cover seeds where ever the sun hits (winter wheat, leafy greens like kale, etc) , they will love the food, save you some money, it will attract worms, make them lay more, and the ones you eat will taste great!
Also, you mentioned critters... they LOVE chicken! Add a hot wire to the top of the fence.
Looks great, best wishes!
I am so excited for you guys. Just think, crops and animals !👍🏼🐶🐣🦆🐰🐓🐇🍎🍅🥬🥒🍠🍆🍓🥦🥕🍗🥟🥚🍷🥓🌶🥬🥝🍞🍳
So happy for you guys that your dreams are becoming a reality 🤗
Great Job Hollis, you made light work of cleaning up the paddock. Looking forward to upcoming videos. My best to Nancy and Bing.
You have done a tremendous amount of work!. Congratulations on your accomplishment!
Nice work on the chicken/turkey paddocks. I look forward to seeing your coop builds and all the additions you will bring to Bing Bing's family. BTW Nancy, you do a such great job with the camera work and editing of your videos; but, I would fire the person who was Hollis' wardrobe stylist for this video. :-)
Looks beautiful. Hard work and it shows!
Wow can I move in with the girls 😂😂 Love you guys you have inspired me so much im looking for land now and hopefully when the time comes I can have everything so nice and neat like yours I cannot wait to see the coop up and running god bless you and your homestead
What a blessing to have water and electricity on your cross fenced property that’s a major expense you don’t have to deal with your plans sound great 😁
Thanks for sharing your life!
Carl from Northeast Ohio I've been following you for a long time it is awesome what you guys are doing God bless you both see you next time
That is a nice looking Paddock for your future chickens. It would also double as a park. I have 5 acres but the only trees are the ones that I planted for shade in the 1 acre that I set aside for my Home, Garage and outdoor living area. I wish I had trees all about on the rest of the acreage like you have. It is so beautiful. Thank you for allowing me to view it. I appreciate your videos very much. Art in CA
I love you guys. VERY VERY down to earth.
I'm excited about the chickens. Can't wait.
Thank you for sharing
It is a joy to watch your homestead taking shape. As a fellow Floridian living in rural Florida (since 1984) I have to admit when I see all of those trees and listen to your dream of chickens running around in those paddocks, the first thing I think of is that the trees are great perches for hawks (Red-tailed, Red-shouldered, Cooper's) and Owls, all of which prey on chickens. My little granddaughters lived out on the family property for a while and one day one was horrified when a hawk flew off with her pet rabbit, and another one on another day, her pet duck. We lost our own flock to weasels. A neighbor has been losing his to coyotes, steadily. There are so many chicken predators in Florida, but lots of people do raise chickens. I will be interested to learn your plans for protecting your girls from predators. Probably places for them to run for cover can help during the day and locking them up securely at night. Palmettos abound on our property and could make great cover, but then again, every predator likes to hid in palmettos too. I'll stay tuned. You are doing a great job.
Thank you Kimberly! Yes, we have lots of predators but so far so good. We have lots of videos coming this year that you may like. Stay tuned❤️
Congratulations on your new home. Looking forward to seeing the progress. May The Lord bless y’all.
Thank you Jay. Lots of new videos coming out this year showing the homestead coming to life. We are looking forward to sharing them with everyone ❤️. Starting March 1st we will begin releasing videos on Thursday and Sunday evenings at 6:00 pm for the rest of 2020👍
Enjoyed the video! Can't wait to see part 2!
Yall have done a great job on the place. I look forward to seeing more. Thanks for sharing. I have 3 more years to work and I am planing on having chickens.
Hollis!
I thought Nancy had you locked-up out back! lol
Hope you all are gearing up for garden soon? Gotta get them peppers sprouting!
Looks like you all are keeping busy.
Cheers Mac
Great video, I raised chickens in both the USA and The Philippines. The chickens were well worth the effort. We incubated, brooded and raided our own birds. Great project. The information that you provide is very valuable. God bless you both as well as Bing Bind, and God bless a
America.
What a transformation! You two are simply amazing. I'm tired just watching the video. hahaha I can hardly wait to see your first egg. xoxoxo from Ohio
You really hard working love that reminds me of my daddy
I'm so looking forward to all this information. 😊 God Bless you for keeping us inspired!
Exciting times ahead!! Can’t wait to see your building design. I’m getting ready to build mine for chickens and goats! 🐔🐣🐐🐖
Alright now it's on for the growing season!!!
enjoyed your video looks like a nice area to get started I look forward to more videos on the chicken project
Hollis, the turkeys will gobble gobble super loud, that's when there's a predator after the chickens. That's something that I learned years ago when I raised chickens and turkeys.
I've heard a Donkey can be really good guardians for your livestock. I've been reading about & considering one because of the raccoons eating my chickens food in plain sight when they are out in the run (at least they are not eating the chickens) We use to have coyotes too eating the food in the run & they also never attacked the girls) I've heard other people getting a donkey & that has solved the issues. I live in Orlando :)
I see lots of donkeys mixed in with cattle around here. I have heard the same thing, very protective of livestock
You guys are amazing hard-working people with so much positive attitude.... I live in Putnam County for the last 3 years. I used to live in Connecticut so Florida is very new experience to me weather wise I'm trying to adjust to. I subscribed to your Channel because you are a great motivation for me to be successful with things I like to do such as planting fruit trees and have vegetable and flower garden. So far I am happy with what I achieved by now, I planted over 20 different fruit trees. I'm also happy with my leafy greens such as kale, arugula, radishes and more.. back in Connecticut I used to have some chickens, I was thinking about having few chicken's over here as well but I have serious concerns if they are going to be safe from predators especially those flying above! And this is why I cannot wait to see your chicken coop and all the arrangement you going to have to protect your chickens. My best wishes to you and to your beautiful wife.
Thanks for watching Jess! We love Putnam County too. Keep up the good work on your homestead. Sounds like you are off to a great start👍👍👍. We have had no problems with hawks on our chickens so far. They are around but they just haven’t bothered them. We ha e some videos coming out on how we secured the chicken coop. Hope they help you. We love having chickens. Lots of fantastic tasting eggs and they are fun to raise. A great addition to our homestead❤️
OK, you just woke up Curious George. What kind of chickens, eggs and meat, how many, protection from predators, ( including the flying ones) ??? I know, I know, Stay Tuned! LOL, staying tuned. Thanks Hollis and Nancy for the ride along. Mark
Very happy for you guys.
Thank you for sharing all that you are doing! Great job By The Way!
Wooooow 😄 that's awesome...I'm interested in raising chickens. .this interested right on time...and to hear you say that you're in Florida...I'm a florida native...born and raised in West Palm Beach. Gosh I miss the beach...lol...I live in Dayton Ohio now for the past 9 1/2 years now. Good luck with your chicken house.😄😊
I'm so looking forward to seeing you actually building everything. I always learn new tips and tricks while watching you.build. Can't wait until you start planting the garden also. God bless your hard work.
Looks exciting! Love the progress!
Beautiful area.
I am new to rising laying chickens and am looking forward to what you have to share.
Be well and be safe.
Peace
Love the videos cant wait to see y'all producing
Love the progress! 😊 I am looking forward to the building going up for the chickens 😁 Thank you for sharing 😇
Can't wait to see the chickens. Great Video. Blessings Hollis & Nancy.
You guys are such a hard working people.
Love your area. 🤗🤗
I have 10 chickens in my small backyard.
I enjoy them so much they love shredded lettuce and carrots.
I haven't bought eggs for 3 years.🌳🐓🌴
Will you use the ashes from the burn pit to help in your soil? God bless you both. Great Job you both have done.
Good morning from Texas! Y’alls hard work shows, and you’ll be greatly rewarded for it. Have you considered livestock guard animals to guard your future flock and herd? We have two Anatolian Shepherds that do great protecting our goats, who are GREAT at clearing underbrush. LGD’s can be trained for protection of overhead predators as well as four, and two legged. 🤠 One of our biggest predators of our chickens was from overhead. However, the tree cover did give them a little bit of a head start to run and hide. Keep up the good work, and look forward to more videos!! 🤗
Who, on Gods green earth, gives Hollis and Nancy a thumbs down!!?? 🤔. I love y'all to pieces and your videos. Can't wait to see the rest of the videos on the chicken area!!
Yay. A chicken video. I've been waiting. I love chickens.
Those first couple of eggs are going to go down a real treat! I bet you already know how you are going to prepare them! If it was me I think fried in butter😇.
Klaus
Love you guy's
As always ya'll on "on top of it." Great camera work and planning going forward. God bless and keep you "showing the way!"
Exciting stuff coming for you both, Im happy for you.
🐓🦃🦆= predator 🍫🍭🍬 here in the Forest. Looking forward to seeing how things go...and welcome to our area.
Really enjoyed the video. May God richly bless y’all.
I can only pray that the Lord will bless my family like He has blessed yours. Looks great!
You've been blessed by the Lord to have all that it looks like at one time somebody has a lot of horses there. I wish to have more land because of a horrible divorce I lost my land and now I have to start all over with the Lord's help and buying more. I live in Florida also and is very hot here. I raise Rhode Island Reds and had wonderful setting hens with lots of little chicks these chickens were so friendly I could call them and they would come running I could pick them up they even laid eggs in my hand Rhode Island Reds are wonderful laying chickens and make great pets and if I had my wish I would I could live way out in the woods way out in the woods away from everybody with my chickens my horses and whatever else I wanted + a wonderful big Garden with the Lord's help maybe I'll have it again but the Lord comes first in my life and whatever he lead me to is where I wish to go. I live in a house in the city and hate living here that's why I watch the shows like yours and have my dream and hope that one day it comes true
Hello from Iowa!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
WTG Hollis!!
👍
Your gonna have a lot of playmates for Bing Bing..................
Hi. How will you discourage the bears? N larger cats n wild dogs? I'd go electric fencing, maybe a strand or two, a foot inside outer fence n higher than outside fence so people don't get shocked but an animal climbing on top of fence won't go into coop area. I'd hate to see you loose birds after all the hard land clearing. Great job !! Peace to you and yours
Good looking spread. You have worked hard to get it looking so good. Are you doing any gardening?
I love your channel! You guys have inspired me to create my own larger scale garden (20 asparagus plants growing right now!)
. Your videos are so clear and the sound is great. What camera and mic do you guys use? Keep the videos coming, and I'll keep watching, and God bless!
Thanks for watching! Congratulations on expanding your garden 👍👍👍. Our camera is a Sony 6500 with a Sennheiser Lavalier system
We want a chicken coop for our new little homestead but I am very concerned about the coyotes in our area. We have experience building a coop and run that will keep out wild animals but I don’t want the coyotes to be lured into our yard by the chickens. We have a fenced in yard with two small dogs and I am concerned for the dogs safety. ANY SUGGESTIONS. Are you concerned about something getting your chickens? Can’t wait to see your coop, I know it will be awesome. God bless you guys
Our chicken yard has a 10 foot fence. The skirt of the building is protected with fencing buried about a foot around the perimeter or the building. We have videos coming on these👍. We do. It allow our dog out at night due to coyotes, bears and bob cats
Are you saying that the videos we are watching may be two years (+ or -) old?
Oh wow you guys move to Florida? I've been following you guys when you live up north. Welcome to Florida. If you don't mind me asking where in Florida are you. Love you channel.
We moved to Orange Springs in November 2017❤️
Wow! You have been there 2 full years? Where's the garden. Didn't you plant one?
We have been working on the garden from the beginning. Had to clear the land first them amend the soil. You will see lots of progress on the garden complex starting In the spring up until the vegetables are growing
I just love your place! Are snakes or other predators a problem there?
❤🐓🐔🐖🐐❤
I was curious to what your water supply is to the paddock?
We have a deep well on our property
Are you going to get some ducks with the chickens. Ducks beneficial...god bless your new family
No plans for ducks at this time. Next will be turkeys
@@HollisNancysHomestead thankyou looking forward your big garden god bless .
We started with new chicks. They grew together. You cant put small chickens with older ones because they go by size. The big chickens will attack and kill the small ones.
That Llama will protect your whole herd. They use them here in Texas for protecting the goats and sheep herds from coyotes. They are TOUGH!
That was why we had heard👍
i hope you have a plan to keep the coyotes and other animals away from the chickens.
Indeed we have a plan❤️
Hi, God Bless. I don't want your address only where in Florida you at. I have some land in Ocala and nothing grows there.
We are very close to Ocala. We are located in Orange Springs
Don't you like horses don't you know how to ride it would be wonderful riding through all those woods on horseback
