10/11/24, 5;37am EST Great Job and Smart. I like keeping the cattle & other smaller Livestock separate, but together. I've been thinking about having a place to sit when one is about to give birth and also have an area to serve as the feed/med/office/tack/etc room with the WashBay/Grooming/Farrier/Vet/Dental space at the other end where the 2nd garage door can access away from the Foaling Box are so they can drive in and and out while the pregnant Mare is not so easily stressed. I have been researching barns and barn setups for the past few years and now that I am retired I can finally have my Farm. Congrats, you did a Great job explaining why you did this and that. I have been thinking to build a separate temporary Clear Span building with garage doors at both end to keep the gas/diesel/ equipment away from the office and Animals. Making it a pass through design for the tractors, Livestock Box Trailer, 1-2-horse Trailer, Kubota, mower, the 1 ton diesel tow truck, pallet mover, snow plow, etc. My thought is making them both temporary until the permanent barn plans have been approved and built. I am also planning on having a classroom setup for the local FFA and the 4-H to use for the children who do not have the means and place to care for their 4-H/FFA projects. This way, I have more time to get the place surveyed and watch it through the seasons watching for rainwater and snow melt flow patterns and meanwhile get my projects started. I like the idea of temporary building use so that I can have it moved to a different space where it can repurposed... like for a greenhouse & Aquaculture setup, or other use.
@DoloresPhifer sorry I missed your comment, not sure how that happened. I appreciate you watching our video. Now that it's done, there are thingsn I would change, and will hopefully build another barn in the next few years. I would like to have a separate area for our show cattle now that we have them also. I have changed the barn some so we this video and plan on doing an update soon! It sounds like you have a good plan for your barn. Congratulations on retirement!
Hey Robert! Happy to see new videos as always! I was curious if the chemical spills that happened recently in Ohio have shown any effects around your area? Wishing you and the family the best! Stay safe and keep pushing hard through recovery brother!
Hello. That chemical spill was on the other some of the state from us. However the deep well injection site where they are disposing of some of the chemicals isn't that far from us. I can't imagine having something like that happen in our small town. Thanks for thinking of us!
@@PheasantLaneFarm I can tell, I have horses too and you were very smart with the way you set things up, i pet sit for minis too and they keep 2 together in one regular horse stall. ( In the beginning I though you preggo mares name was Pizza haha)
@Agetawod thanks for the comment. We actually did right after this video. With all the insulation we rarely need to turn it in moon, but it's nice to have if we do
@@PheasantLaneFarmI'd be interested in price of the structure including concrete. I'd say the horse stall portions were the cheapest parts. Buildings are crazy high now
@tracyjohnson5023 I had a quote from a company between 80 and 90k. I can tell you I had 33k in materials and 4k in concrete, not including labor. Insurance has replacement value around 120.
Got to your YT channel randomly, checking for horse barn ideas. Glad I came here. I am also subscribed to Gary's channel. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for checking us out!

I’d love to see the building process or an explanation of how the stalls were built!
I can do an in depth video for you soon!
@@PheasantLaneFarm great! Thanks!!
Robert, you have built and awesome barn! Take care sir and I’ll see you on the next one…
Thank you so much! I'm glad it's reached this stage, at times I thought it was never going to get done.
Very nice barn! Good luck with Peaches baby!
Shout out to my girl Brenda at Premier 1! ❤ I’m glad I stumbled across your page. I enjoy the content!
We appreciate that. We've had some family stuff going on lately but hope to have some videos out soon.
The pig in a sweater 🥹
Ya I guess he will be staying around the farm for a long time. Kiddo said no freezer in his future.
Great video Robert and please don't let Casper the Boss be to rough on you buddy.
Haha he can be a little bossy. I told him to knock it or its off the the freezer for him haha. Thanks for watching, Josh.

I hope you were able to get workers comp ❤
Looks great and smart design❤
Thank you. We put a lot of thought in when designing it.

@metalkingtohorses hahaha. Ya I wish we could put the minis in together to free up a stall. They have a serious love hate relationship lol
Do y’all have photos or more videos of the stall budget horse barn? I want to do something similar but for chickens.
I have.some footage but I can make another video that's more in depth if it would help
Consider changing your heater to a safer oil filled radiator type space heater. They work great, but are significantly safer than the kind you have.
@Agetawod thanks for the comment. We actually did right after this video. With all the insulation we rarely need to turn it in moon, but it's nice to have if we do
so what was the cost? Did I miss that?
For the whole barn or the horse portion?
