This is where you go (in the future), " Remember when we were powering up our chicken production project and everything was catch-as-catch-can, and I got flu-sick. It was a struggle. And we 'powered' through it. Look at all of those chickens now and the system we put in place. It's work, but it pays off."
Yes, sometimes my grit gets me through because things are not always smooth but they still need to get done. Now I am starting my next round of chicks and pray I will be fully recovered when it is time for them.
Katie you are such a trooper… hope you get to feeling better soon. Sending healing prayers to you🙏
Thank you!
Take care, Katie. Glad you’re on the mend.
Oh, my goodness! All those broody hens with the tiny babies! What a cute sight!
Right?! They are only 1lb themselves so babies would outgrow them quickly.
Aw Katie, its good to see you doing more and feeling better. Sometimes even when you are trying to get well, just making yourself get up and get moving improves circulation and improves your immune system. I am so enjoying your journey with the chickens! Looking forward to upcoming videos!
So true! You can only stay put for so long.
God bless you, prayers, for your healing. Hugs ❤ 🤗
Thank you!
Awww Sweetie get better soon.U are superwomen ❤️Love u
Pure grit with a splash of sarcasm...that is me ;)
I really enjoyed seeing more of the domestic side of life! A very nice mix of interests.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing. Feel better Katie🌸🇺🇸
I don't know how you able to get so much of your work done around the homestead, even when you are still so sick. I admire your stamina. Your little chicks are so cute and they all look so healthy and energetic. Folks are going to be very happy purchasing your chickens. Nate is going to have to build you another big brooder soon. Y'all have a Blessed day.
I am working on getting a chicken house for my operations and moving it out of the house. Hopefully this will be something I can do in the next two months.
Don' t forget to take care of yourselves even when busy! The chicks are so cute! How funny that pile of broody chickens, hopefully more then 1 chick with them! Blessings!
They are hilarious. They are so tiny only 1lb each so they all share.
Katie I love your video. 😊
Thank you!
Take care Katie ..Great idea for storing spices. Maine looks like a battle ground with all the tree damage from our storm. My fruit trees were buried and snapped a lot of branches . The weight of the heavy snow took the branches to the ground. When I can get to them I will know the extent of the damage. It was nice getting our power back but our Bluetti kept our pellet stove running along with a generator.
Oh no, I hope they were not too damaged after the storm.
Awesome video
Thanks!
Hope you feel better soon !
The times when we need to keep on pushing makes us look back and think...yea i did that . ❤
Exactly, there will be lots of those times throughout our lives.
You are an inspiration! Get well soon.
Thank you, feeling a bit better!
Thanks for the granola recipe! Baby chickens are adorable! That's alot of broody hens. Lol Please get some rest and don't overdo it! Hope you're feeling better soon!
Thank you, I will
Sorry it's been a wild ride with the chicks and you being sick. Hopefully you over the top of it now and on the end run of your cold/fluish feeling. You sure did get things done however and glad you did get some rest.......sometimes you just have to~~ That's a lot of work getting a business going and you are hands on and also with you full time job. Take care of yourself and feel better........
The chicks are so darn cute!!
I'm hoping Katie that you are on the mend.
And I love to see all the new life on the homestead. I wish I could have one of those chickens 🐔 that have feathers on their feet. I can never remember what they are called.
I also hope Nate is well.
Thanks for taking the time to show us the recipe for granola.
We have three breeds with feathered feet. Cochins are the fluffiest with almost their entire legs being feathered. Brahmas (Betty Jane) have feathered feet. Salmon Faverolles have an extra toe, feathered feet, and poofy cheeks.
Puffy cheeks would be great with feathered feet. I'll have to look for them when I watch your channel. Also, Sean has some great chickens he got from you. Terrific. Thanks so much.
I always love all your videos, they are fun, informative, and always true to real life on a farm. As a former dairy farmer I feel I can say this without impunity. So sorry you are sick Katie, it really sucks to have to work while sick. I know!
Yes, I did sleep in and rest more than normal but couldn't take the time off completely with everything going on. All the chicks were hatching or had just hatched. I imagine a dairy farm was even more labor intensive.
Hoping you get to feeling well soon.
Thank you!
Katie, How do you do it all? So much energy. Of course I'm 71 yrs. old now. Hahaha
Not sure about energy, maybe just grit to get it done.
I commented on your web site but I don't know if it went thru. I wanted to mention about growing a large crop of black- eyed peas to get you thru the winter feeding your livestock. I saw some you tube videos of homestead people doing this. And my brother-law told me the history of the Civil War and how the north took all the souths food and crops and the south had nothing to eat. But the north didn't mess with the black -eyed peas because up north they didn't eat that. If it was grown it was for the livestock to eat. The north didn't know that south grew it for human consumption or they would have annilated the crop of peas. So that was what kept the south from starving. So if you grew a large crop to tired you over the winter. Now it was fed to horses, cattle, hogs, goats. You will have to check if it can be fed to sheep, chickens. Geese as that is what you have. The other two you tube videos were of willow trees. They were small and grow fast. They feed your sheep. Can grow this for winter to feed them. It makes fencing that can last ten years. It can be used to stop erosion on the banks of a pond or creek bank. It can be weaved as a fence or different designs. I so appreciate the videos you make letting us into your life working hard to make your homestead. I dearly love the Shenanigans. Please show them more and give us updates on them. And I like that you named them that. My name is Taia Tully and I live on 22carces in the country between Victoria and Yoakum Texas. Thanks again. Sorry I don't have the name of the video of the willow trees but it is a woman and she had great designs for different fences and crops of it to feed her goats. Bye for now
Loved the video! I love seeing the chicks. Love a barnyard mix!!
I always love the BYM, such original looking chickens.
@@TheKraemerLife yes they are. You have some beautiful ones!
💟
hope you get better soon it's no fun being sick
🙂🌻
I am ready to not be sick anymore :)
those chicks are so cute hugsssss
They are so cute when they are this age.
You sound a little better and seem to have a little more energy. Get well soon!
Yes, I feel like I am turning the corner.
Praying for health🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you!
I swear If I don't feel well all those "domestic chores" seem worse than ever. Way to power through Katie. Now I need a nap! Take care🙃
Nice video 😊
Thanks 😊
Nice video guys. ❤
Thank you
You’re getting really good with this chicken raising business! Are people able to start ordering from you?
Thank you! Yes, I am taking orders for local pickup.
Oh Katie you sound terrible but I totally understand where your mindset is at. Until my boys are stronger I’m the only one that can do most of the farm chores and that means sick rain or snow. Take good care of yourself Katie and you too Nate. ❤
Lots of interesting content! Thanks for the granola recipe. Praying you feel better soon.❤
Thanks so much!
🐓🐓
Cute chicks!
They are so stinking cute.
Wishing you a more speedy recovery
Thank you, I am starting to feel a little better today...finally.
@@TheKraemerLife glad to hear that Katie
I used one of my goose eggs today in a 3 egg recipe and I look at the yolk first and yup this was a fertile egg, Pass 2 years they were not, So I may let her set later,
Good luck, just checked and we didn;t have a single one develop.
you get well Katie, loved this video
Thank you!
Feel better soon chickie ❤
Thanks
I really enjoyed vidio you've had a heavy dose Katie it may take some time to recover thank you for giving us your time
Thanks, starting to feel a bit better.
Hope you managed a nap somewhere in there.
Slept in a bit longer than normal.
Just came across ur video. I really liked it. How long have you been home stealing, and where are you guys located?
Great video, Katie! I hope you get to feeling better soon!!
Thank you!!
You have to clean up to mess up. 😊
You got that right!
Spending the past few weeks catching up on all your videos on both channels. So interesting....I'm hooked!
I've heard you talking in the past about planting comfrey.
My searches say it's poisonous, so what do you use it for? Thanks
Luv ya Katie
Hello can I ask why you keep your eggs out?? And not in the frig? Ty 😊
Collected fresh daily so we know how old they are, they last at least two weeks on the counter (we rotate them so the oldest are on top) we go through them before they are close to bad so it works great...also, have you seen the size of an RV fridge?
So glad your feeling better. I'm gonna have to try that granola. How long do you cook it at 250? I don't remember it you said. I'll have to rawatch and see if I catch it. It looks pretty good to be having on hand.
I put in more cinnamon than what is called for, I think the original recipie I started with called for a tablespoon but it wasn't enough, in my opinion. I bake it for about 10 min then stir it around then back in for 5-10 more depending on the doneness you want. You may try less time if it is coming out too dark...my oven isn't as strong as a conventional one.
@@TheKraemerLife Thank you
Is Rodney a border terrier?
Not sure who Rodney is.
@@TheKraemerLife lol. after I watched that channel, I watched yours. their dog is named Rodney!! sorry about that
What is organic honey?😊
It is from bees that have not been exposed to any synthetic pesticides or herbicides.
@@TheKraemerLife I’m not trying to be difficult, but how can a bee keeper control where there bees go?
NO SYMPATHY HERE! 24/7 UNTIL YOU GIVE UP! 50 YRS LATER, I GAVE UP. REMEMBER, YOU ARE LIVING YOUR DREAM....
