We're transforming this 90 acre property into a self reliant homestead and farm stay vacation rental. We're building infrastructure to accomodate future growth such as barns, duck house, 7 coop chicken house, water hydrants, planting an orchard, building a garden etc. Chickens, ducks, geese, mini pigs, rabbits, a bunch of barn cats and two old english sheepdogs make up our team here at the farm. Please follow along on our journey of transforming this place into something special.

    Good day, Chad. Once again, I loved the vlog.
    The rabbits love to chew. My experience with 🐇 a long time ago, is they chew, and it keeps their teeth filed down.
    As for the caterpillars, her in eastern Ontario, we call them tent worms,, thats what dad told me. As soon as i see a branch in the tree with them, i cut and burn it right away. Unfortunately, you have so many trees it is hard to control.
    OH ASIAN pears, i would love to grow them here.
    Well, enough of a book for you to read.
    Love to all your farm animals, the cats, Olive, your Darlin, and of course you.
    Till the next one.. Keep on keeping on

    To find out what type of worm that is,go to Google search,take a picture of the worm and it will tell you what they are. Then you can search how to get rid of them.
    I think the blue eyed geese is beautiful. I didn't know they had blue eyes. I believe with the love you are showing the geese they will come around.
    Love to you and Rhemy,have a blessed day.

      @@HiddenSpringFarm wood chips would be as good as pine shavings and if you mix it with Timothy hay…they eat that and it smells nice for them. They will chew on it too. Rabbits teeth never stop growing so they need to chew to keep the teeth in check. Avoid wood dust like fine sawdust. Bad for the respiratory system. The wood breaks down and heats up the animal waste in the compost. Gives it a nice balance.
