Featuring the horses is no different than when you got all the heavy equipment and it was the star of the show. I love that you support Lily and her interest and find a way to help find her way.🥰
Totally agree 👍🏻
Very good point and I agree wholeheartedly!
Perfectly stated!
Exactly what I was thinking!!!
next is the horse parade!
Noticed lily dropped a pretty sizeable screw in the horses space. You want to keep all debris like that away from horses areas. They are very very heavy animals. It wouldnt take much to step on that the wrong way or kick it the right way. You won’t believe the way horses find ways to hurt themselves. Also. Future tip. Horses can cut them selves pretty deep and gnarly and be totally fine(aka no need for vet) keep all wound cleaning care on hand and keep it clean and flushed out daily with proper meds reapplied everyday. And they bleed alottt. Do not always be so alarmed with injuries when they come. Love this horse journey yall are doing great!
Lily is precious. She works so hard.
I'm sure you will (and probably have been) getting all the comments from horse people! I've been involved with horses for 30 years, both casually and professionally. It's a running joke if you ask 2 horse people the same question you will get 3 different answers. What you are going through is exactly what the majority of first time horse owners experience (just most of them not for the whole world to see, thank you for being real!). I'm not going to give you horse advice, your trainers seem very knowledgeable and helpful for you. Just wanted to give you some encouragement that it will all work out and thank you for letting Lily experience this, it will only make her a better horsewoman ❤🐴
right? I remember getting my first horse and went through the same things. its brutal to see all these horse people trying too "help" like give them a break their learning and can't learn all at once, these are the mistakes you learn from to end up a good rider/horse person. you have too make mistakes in order to learn. i don't know why people need too come too the the comments and be their couch. 1 they have a great couch it seems 2 they're taking the right steps and they're not afraid to ask her couch too help.
Yes, you in your worry for Lily’s safety, let Peaches win. From now on put him on his lunge line and make him exercise until he gets it in his head that Lily is the boss. He cannot be allowed to behave like that and get away with it. Work his backside around and around the circle until he’s exhausted. He’s just taking advantage of Lily’s inexperience. Lily HAS to take control of each situation or he will.
You are 100 percent correct,so glad someone said that
I agree. I like to get mine where they are more than happy to stand still at the point I mount up. Lol. Night and day difference. Especially if it’s a cold and windy day (ask me how I know this lol). She’s so adorable and I love that you let her show what she’s doing! Good that peaches has a buddy now. They will figure their pecking order in time.
Equine trainer here, canine as well. So important to become the lead mare. My voice alone now can control any one of my herd from 5 acres. Even my hot breeding jack
Although you're right, everybody getting into horses and riding go through not knowing what to do and make mistakes. They have a trainer that seems to be awesome. Peaches got away with that and probably will get away with a lot more things to come. Yes in the long run, lily will have deal with it, it takes time. they have not had this horse for a long time, and have a LOT to learn. lets just say there gonna make little and big mistakes along they way and that's okay. You can't be perfect, and I know from my experience; my mistakes taught me to figure out my problem and seek help and evidently fix them. The only way too learn is too make those mistakes, cause if you didn't make those mistakes, how are you going too do it correctly?😁
Justin, your instinct was correct in telling Lily to dismount. Probably don't want to put your daughter in a "contest" with a 1,000 lb. animal. As someone else pointed out, the horse needs a leader, not a boss. Peaches is saying, "I have a new friend who is very interesting and I want to be with him." Additionally, if someone has to hold a horse in order for the rider to mount, things will probably not go well once mounted. This was borne out in the video when Peaches began to rear up. All that said, it is good that Peaches has another horse. They are now a herd. Guess where horses go for safety and comfort? The herd.
I’d be totally fine with a Lilly’s horse channel takeover 😂 just too much cuteness 🐴 although we’d probably miss the cows 😅
She needs her own channel
I love that you got Peaches a buddy, they shouldn't be alone - and I'm sure you're gonna find new routines and he's gonna calm back down! Don't worry Lily :)
Greetings from Northeast Ohio. Justin, I love how you support Lily and her horse adventure. You’re right by her side. Same way with her Cooking Channel. You are right there observing and making sure she is telling us , her audience, all the things she is putting it in to her cakes and cookies.
One thing I discovered having two horses that are bonded, is that I couldn’t ride one without the other having a total fit. My gelding wouldn’t leave for the trails and stubbornly kept going back to his mate. When I took my mare out, the gelding went nuts in his pasture. Hopefully that’s not the case with Peaches. Plus, thankfully you have someone helping guide the way with this whole horse thing. They are more complicated than you think.
Maybe she needs a 3rd horse 😂
Ive always heard.. one horse.. or three. 2 never works bc of that exact reason… the one left behind freaks out
Take things slow and steady lily. It can take along time for horses to trust and and become comfortable with their routines. Don't expect too much too quick! 🐎 Gonna learn and grow together
I'm soooo happy for you Justin and your recent diagnosis update. My homesteading journey has been sidelined for over 10 years by illness that was misdiagnosed and I'm finally getting the right tests done by a new doctor, fingers crossed. Looking forward to the spring planting season and your posts of all the updates on the homestead and thanks for sharing.
I'm sure your trainer has already chimed in... always end on a positive with your horses. They need to do something you ask them to do rather than something they've forced on you before you reward them by turning them out or putting them up. And she's told you that the new pony needs to be worked too. Find out who has the most energy and, lol, wear them out first because if you leave them while you work the easier one they just get more and more excited. You'll figure it out. Good Luck!
Peaches is nervous and will see the pony as leader if there is no other leader more suitable.
It's not boss, it's the one Peaches will follow when things get scary or unsure for him.
Lily can totally learn to be a good leader for Peaches and Blaze.
Correct advice here.
I love the new adventure with Lily same as the Biking Adventures, Heavy equipment adventures etc.
I think every video should feature your kiddos on the homestead as this is the NEW PHASE of your lives!! 😂
I couldn't help but notice that Lily picked up a long screw that was resting on top of the fence enclosure for the horses and then let it drop to the ground. I sure hope someone else noticed and went back and picked it up? One of our horses stepped on a nail like that and it got up into its hoof and caused serious damage, which resulted in us have to spend several hundred dollars for surgery on the horse not to mention the pain the poor horse had to suffer through.
Yes, I noticed that as well. My very first thought was I hope a horse doesn't step on that. That could cause some major damage. I'm not sure why Lily would have done that.
I hope that someone took the time to go and look for it @@justanothermichele.
I hope Lily learns to control his feet. They control him. ❤️🙏🏼I'm praying for you, brave horse girl!
Blaze is a cutie. He will be a great brother for Peaches. They will have to figure out the pecking order and who is going to be the alpha. There will be some bickering but they will adjust and become best friends. Blaze really seems to be a calm, cool and collected one so maybe he will help settle Peaches. She needs to make sure she splits her time with them. Give them time. Lily needs to be strong and work through the ups and downs. Dont let the downs scare you and detour you from doing what you love. The horses will learn you are the boss and they will learn to respect you IF you show the dominance and patients. Keep up the good work, it will pay off in the long run. Have fun and enjoy them. 💜💜🐴🐴🐎🐎
P.S. i would suggest not putting shoes on them. You guys dont have very rocky terrain so they will be fine without them. None of my horses were shod and we rode through a lot of rough and rocky terrain. Leave them natural, its better for them. Just a suggested.
Thank God for the false positive test, no worries about lupus. I do hope that Peaches will settle down. We've been so happy for Lily and we really want this to work for her. I am glad that you are giving her the opportunity to have her dream, just as you have given your sons the opportunity to explore theirs.
Peaches hasn’t had time to adjust and figure out who the leader is yet, I don’t know, I hope I’m wrong but buying a pony sight unseen is kinda scary I’m really surprised your trainer didn’t tell you to wait for vet check, and actually meeting this pony first, another horse later was what we did so we had horses we could ride. Also if you’re worried about companionship a Pygmy goat is what our horses bonded to. Ponies sometimes are just like little dogs, they pick up really bad habits because people treat them like cute little toys. Someone else posted earlier to get back to the basics, ground work Always before you mount up on the left side of the horse. They will both definitely need to be exercised daily consistently. Find Lily a mentor who has been around horses for awhile, ask your vet who he’d recommend, best decision we’ve ever made for our daughter, she spent 15 years learning/working with her mentor and I don’t regret one minute or $ spent. Best of luck Lily, don’t let peaches scare you, just a healthy respect and you’ll have a lifetime bond. Also please don’t hook either up to a cart without proper supervision
I don’t know that he has a vet. I’ve never seen one there or heard they got a veterinarians opinion on anything
They've had house calls from one or two vets, over the years.
@@kar702 well with 2 horses (horse and pony), he’s most definitely going to Need a vet, and a farrier etc. one thing horses are and they aren’t cheap, but if Lily gets the right direction it’ll be money well spent, I believe it saved my daughters young life and taught her so much
When Lily was considering Star, my heart grinned. First because Stella means star. Then my thoughts turned to “Star light; star bright; first star I see tonight…” and the pony’s late night arrival. With my chickens sometimes I go through several names before settling on a name. So Blaze it is!
I like Blaze too
Blaze is such a good name...❤
I am hooked on this introducing Peaches to a friend side-plot! Very excited for you all and hoping it goes well. :)
Me too can't wait to see the next one :)
I love seeing Lily being so happy with the pony's! she is living a dream I have had for 41 years. Maybe the new pony will make it so she can have a friend come over and they can ride together. Riding is so fun with another person and its safer.
With rescue dogs there is a rule 3 days to get acclimated, 3 weeks to get comfortable, 3 months to feel at home. If you talk to horse people I'm pretty sure they feel the same. Don't force it. Give Peaches time to adjust. He has been removed from his environment and needs to adjust.
Seen your short story of the storm, in the news too North Carolina is devastated. Praying your fine in there, God bless you & your family.
Talking to a couple old timers about horses...if they are used to a buddy they don't want to leave them, if they get used to being alone they will be fine. Sometimes it can depend on their personality.
True. It's called being "buddy sour".
lilly remember horses have their own personalities so just remember to take your time with them and the trust will be growing every day
Happy new year! Love Lily so much! She’s a natural!
Steve young is a great horse trainer in the UK. He's somewhat repetitive but the lessons help you and the horse understand each other. The most recent lesson is about how to get your horse balanced on the right eye side.
Yes, I would HIGHLY, recommend they attend a natural horsemanship conference. It’s so important to speak the language of horses. I’ve been riding etc for over 25 years and I’m still learning. I went through pat pareli natural horsemanship and it was a huge game changer.
No worries! Lily is your daughter and horses are her thing and now is part of your farm! Blessings!
Working together ! Money cannot buy those PRECIOUS Moments! You And Rebecca are doing a fantastic job ! Nothing is perfect but you are a Family and you have a home! Loving HOME! Blessings to you all!❤
Never put a gelding in with a mare. Always put the mare in with the pony or she can/will hurt him. Let them be together but separated by the fence for a couple weeks. If he’s cranking after being so quiet he was probably medicated. Never ever buy an animal sight unseen in the dark!
He was forward moving from the start. Wouldn’t say he isn’t quiet, he is energetic. He was probably worked more in the previous home. Didn’t look medicated at any point.
Peaches needs to be bonded to Lilly not the pony. More ground work. Go back to the basics.
Great advice
This will take months and what she is doing is as basic as it comes ,she is not steeple jumping. She is learning and he is also they are sharing it all .Lily being green is going to make mistakes and that's how you learn.
Hi Justin and family, so good to see how well the family is growing and doing. The kids are getting so big, so fast.
I think you should’ve called the pony Midnight! After all, that’s when it got there
Lily will learn that either she is in charge - or the horse will be in charge. And animals figure that out early and stake their position. One of them will end up being the alpha.
Lily, If you get off of Peaches when he misbehaves, you are teaching him that misbehaving is a good way for him to get what he wants and he will turn into a total brat. Part of having horses is knowing how to NOT train them to do bad things.
Couldn't have said it better
I'm loving the whole horse storyline. I can't wait to see if Jonah can restore that pony wagon. I hope you film that. Lili has the patience of a saint with that little stinker Peaches. How old is Blaze?
GOTTA KEEP SOLDIERING ON...pony up...huge responsibilities...in a few weeks hopefully things will smooth out...lots of work ahead...
SOOOOO happy to hear that it's NOT LUPUS! NEVER panic over the 1st bad health news because then yoy manifast it in your body!!! Horses WILL take over your life....unless you're stronger than we were! LOL!
I felt in my heart it was not lupus or diabetes, or any of the other stuff they’re coming up with. They’re just doing a bunch of guessing.
11:13 lily grabbed a 3” screw that was laying on the top of the horse stall and dropped it on the ground I know how responsible and hard working she is but if any of those horses step on that screw that could be a big problem obviously she didn’t know and that’s why I’m saying something heck honestly they won’t even see this comment they never do EVER hopefully I have never seen a like on a comment from Justin or Rebeca
I don’t think they read the comments at all. They sure don’t take any advice either
not all horses get along and horses are fine alone. Sometimes better alone
Lily and Peaches were like Heigh-Ho and the Lone Ranger! She did well to stay on.
Lilly hitch Blase nearby when riding Peaches. It's called buddy sour. Everything is brand new to both, they need time to settle in to everything. Go back to ground work and establish bonds with both , riding and driving can resume later ❤
Hi Rhodes family. R y'all going to the Mountain Readiness festival in May?
LOL, Loving the new Justin Rhode's horse channel 1🐎🐴🦄🦓🐎😂
1. I just watched a whole show of boys riding dirt bikes to get hamburgers. I've watched them warfaring with paintballs. And watched them cutting down trees, building things etc. I'm never going to do any of those things but I enjoyed watching them do it. Lilly is learning about horses. Her progress is very interesting. She has instincts that she is developing. Many homesteader wanna-bees love horses, too. 2. The horses aren't going to become best friends the minute you put them together. The poor little pony just got upended from one place to another, new everything. And his first hours were in total darkness Poor baby.You can't force this process, just observe. Maybe let Lilly go with her instincts. She is very interesting but she is all new to this, too.
I recommend reading books like Monty Roberts, on natural horsemanship. It is not about 'wearing the horse out' before you hop on him, instead, Lili needs to establish a bond with him where she is higher up in the herd than him, this involves a lot of groundwork, getting him to move his feet away from her when asked, yielding when asked, lots of little 'games' you play with a 'carrot stick' and other aides that will assist with this teaching. I would never hop on the back of a horse if it isn't fully listening and engaging or you risk being thrown off or injured. If the horse doesn't 100% respect your space and listen on the ground, they will be ten times worse when you are on their back. Go back to basics, don't ride for a while and slowly build back up to doing lots of groundwork - which is not lunging in circles, it is so much more than that. There is heaps of info online about this stuff. Also, don't take a horse behaving like this away from his mate, bring the 2nd horse with you when training, otherwise, they will be distracted and want to return to their horsey friend. Horses can be dangerous and you can make them have life long habits if you get this wrong, so it is quite serious for the animals welfare as well.
Lily don’t give up you have a wonderful pony he just confused. Don’t put him away when he acts up, you should never end a session on a bad note. Either lounge him or just take him for a walk. ALWAYS end on a good note, don’t let him have his way. 😉🙂
I like the name Blaze. It's nice that Chris could stop by to take some measurements. I'm glad Rebekah had a nice talk with Erin. Nice lunch! It's great that everyone pitched in to make it. Dinner; pork chops, gravy, taters, and collards. It looks delicious. I'm glad another test was a false positive. Thanks for this video Rhodes family!
You let him win. You really need to have her instructor take her through these moments or else you better change that horse's name to Mr. Brown. Bad habits are hard to break.
Bless you, but it's gonna take more than one day to get one horse moved in and the other horse calmed down.
0:18 the kids cleaning an AR on the sofa ROFL.
Peaches playing up( its called napping) is normal he did not want to leave his friend, Hey its winter there is not a lot going on on the farm. so showing Lilly and you learning about horses gives you something different to show case. Let Lilly know we all have had to go through this part of horse owning so don't worry to much about Peaches being a pain it does get better
Howdy! So are you saying No Lupus? If so how awesome is that. Auto immune stuff is so weird.
New animals and learning them is what yall do besides growing food. 😊 Yall will figure it out and just roll that video, I'll be watching!
I sure hope she picked up the screw before star gets it in his foot.
Peaches needs ground work. Lilly has to be able to get her to do whatever she wants on the ground first and then when she's in the saddle things will go much smoother. Gotta stop on a good note too not when the horse is throwing a fit. You just reinforced the fit. That's also why you gotta get Lilly and the horse ground work first. She's not safe up there til then.
Horses want to be with their buddies, when you pull them away they want to get back together
I have some if the same symptoms. I have AS, autoimmune disease
that screw you droped could go in the harses hoof
Star in Italian is Stella - so cute either way
Perhaps you should start the 100% grocery free in June or July when you actually have food growing? That way it could become perpetual and you could win at it!
So, does the false positive on the blood work mean you do NOT have lupus or that you do not have anything else? Either way I am so happy for you I cried. Such a blessing. Thank you for all you do as your videos encourage me and my adult daughter whom I live with to continue making our homestead better a little at a time.
Wow. Were you waiting to see Lily's new pony too? Pfft.
Y'a gotta be fast & don't blink!
Dating in the mundane is so awesome!
I had several horses through the years. Don't really know that you needed a buddy for Peaches. I have noticed Lilly giving Peaches treats. I know her intentions, but animals get addicted to this. Looks like he is barn or maybe buddy sour, and maybe spoiled. Myself, I would put him on hay only for a week. This will get rid of all that excess energy. He may not be a beginners' horse. Be careful. Be safe.
Enjoy your videos.
Could you share the cinnamon roll recipe please. Happy Peaches got a friend.
This mother and father pull on the heart strings of there patreons for money. Be careful of who you watch no matter how innocent it seems
Lily, I think will be your farm girl. The way she takes care of the sheep.
The most important regular maintenance you must do on a horse is hoof maintenance.
When I saw your pork chop meal it reminded me of a recipe that I have, It's called Saffron Rice and pork chops. You cook up your pork chops and remove them from the skillet. Using the drippings, add in some minced onion and minced garlic (or onion and garlic powder). Add in a package of saffron rice until it has absorbed some of the drippings. Add in 2 cups of beef broth and cook until the rice is tender. Mix in 8 oz of sour cream and cook until sour cream has warmed up. place the pork chops back in the skillet to warm them back up and then serve.
Spaghetti squash is so good I’m glad you reminded me to get some and good idea to grow your own. I’m glad it was a false positive thank you Jesus!!!!!
Love your ponies Lily..
Hope you didn't just drop that long screw in your ponies stall area.. Loose Screws & nails can be dangerous for horses and animals causing injury in their hoof soles if stepped on, especially in deep bedding situation.. Prayers for safety and care while you love on your new passionate venture! Love all your sweet enthusiasm with Life on your farm with your family!
I think they need a companion pony for the pony so that when Peaches is out the pony has a friend. It’s simple horse math! (Just kidding). I love how this family supports each other!
If Peaches figures out that if she bucks & the rider gets off, she will continue to misbehave. Just like a child that isn’t corrected. A bigger rider may need to ride Peaches every now and then and remind her that she will be ridden. Not being mean, but someone that doesn’t come off very easily. Sweet Lilly probably will get thrown off at some point. Every rider I’ve known has been thrown off at some point.
I think Lilly dropped that long screw on the railing while you was talking about the horses. Hope you can find it so a horse don't get it in there hoof. Pretty horses
Peaches may need round pen work or lunged before riding? I new a guy who had a horse that would buck every time unless he worked him in the round pen for a few minutes first.
Hello family. & new pony. I hope it gets easier for the 2 horses to boned & Peaches steals down soon. Good luck Lily
Its to early to get another horse.poor peaches hasnt had time to really learn who is right yet.
The two will figure out who is boss totally normal just relax, I have had horses for years it’s always been this way when introducing them. It’s always the way they figure it out,at one time had 12 together there’s always a boss but spreading out hay so they have their own, but one will always want to taste it first. When feeding grains and not working hard every day he’s going to have a lot of energy to burn off. Check with your trainer and friends if they are feeding that much . We only feed hay when not working out hard and minerals when grazing and salt block during the winter hopefully this helps
It really is time for Lilly and her horses to have center stage. She is an awesome child and her interests need to be respected and cared about. I really enjoy seeing your channel with Lilly and family stuff instead of constantly being taught something. I don’t think I would have purchased the pony under the circumstances those people put you in. Maybe going back and talking to them more, maybe even looking else where. Seemed sketchy.
I eat Lyndt 90 % Chocolate I trained my taste buds, just a little at a time. within a week or so I was hooked I loved it !! my favorite!! I eat 2 squares a day and maybe one more later, I Look it up! Hardly any sugar in 3 squares! I am 83 years old !! My favorite homesteaders are you and the Hollers !!
Please speak with some horse people about the fencing and netting you are using ... those look like bad accidents waiting to happen.
Should call the pony cream, when you call out to them it’s Peaches and Cream 😊.
Letting them get acquainted through the fence for a few days is advisable
He doesn't want to leave his new friend. It's called being "buddy sour".
Looks like you got a Hackney pony :)
You can grow a lot of food & all your meat, milk & eggs but you need the grocery store. Not in times of food shortages but in good times. Just like the chocolate, bananas, treats for kids & paper products.
Now that you guys have the pony for peaches, peaches might ride better if they aren't seperated. So, maybe someone could walk the pony while lily rides peaches, that way they dont feel like they are too seperated and uneasy.
Please please check out that place where star was let out the first morning Lilly was playing with a long screw when she was talking to you she dropped it in that area !!!!! !!!!!! It can get in th horse hoof
Peaches just didn't want to leave Blaze I do believe.
The pony addiction has begun 😅
LOL! Going to be at midnight and that turns you out :P If I get to bed before midnight I have done something :P I am a major night owl!
Add peanut butter to the sour cream and pork chops! Amazing
It's amazing how many people think they're gonna tell you what's up😅
Whoever edits your videos makes you look ill in your thumbnails
Having Lilly stop when he's not behaving teaches him to develop bad behavior
Instead of buying processed chocolate candy, just buy the baker chocolate so you can add sweeteners like honey, etc... yourself. Plus, you can avoid all the waxes and preservatives. Trust me, home made fudge is MILES better than the store bought stuff. Buy dried dates and boil those down to make a date syrup. LOVELY stuff. You have milk so make your own caramel. Plant sugar beets this summer to make your own sweetener as well. Sugar cane can also be grown in your climate if you protect the roots with a pile of mulch and plant them on the south side of a wall to shelter from direct northern cold.
Remember in the animal world all animals have their place and space - Peaches is just just showing his dominant streak now...which is so normal and healthy and a good sign👌
I love horses 🐎
