    Hydraulic splitter and a larger chainsaw would save you enormous amounts of time and the whole family could participate in wood harvesting.........When I bought a hydraulic splitter 29 years ago, I wondered why I did not do that 10 years prior!!! (now I am old and need one to get anything done, lol)

      I have one too, I haven't used it since I was in the car accident 3 years ago. Hopefully after the surgeries are done I can burn wood again.
      Those spliters are back savers for sure, I love mine!

    What I notice is teamwork and for what we saw, everyone stayed in their lane and did their job with integrity, knowing that the whole process (a big one) will really suck if attitudes get in the way. Great family and great team work to keep your livestock healthy. Great to participate by watching. Thank you!

    Trinity if you are going to split wood the old fashioned way, my favorite is a Stihl splitting maul, for the big stuff, a Stihl splitting Axe for the small stuff, and a Stihl splitting Hatchet for making kindling. Stihl chainsaws and hand equipment are the best in my opinion. They're nor cheap, and are balanced. Try them and you'll agree. If you are Man enough a steel handled Monster Maul is indestructible. For splitting a couple weeks worth, a gas engine hydraulic splitter is a must. That's alot of horses. Good show.

    Man, I loved seeing all the horses, but the residual warmth of seeing your family all together enjoying a good meal, that's something i think we should all strive for and I thank you for sharing that part of your life with us. Coming from the country lifestyle where we did have horses and and goats, gardens and collected and chopped wood to make it through the winter, I truly miss that chaotic yet peaceful labor, having since moved to a more suburban area. One day I'd adore to work on a ranch alongside good people like you and yours, and really find myself in it again

    So how much hay does a horse eat compared to a beef cow??? Dad always use to say one horse (full sized) eats as much hay as five cows. (full sized )

    • @LifeintheWest
      @LifeintheWest  10 місяців тому +9

      Its about the same as a cow, but depends on the size for sure. The main difference is that cows get much more out of their feed than a horse. A horse only has 1 stomach and doesn’t chew a cud so hay goes right through them.

      Revenue comes from kids camps and Guest Ranches that don’t want to own the horses. There is lots of demand.
      The biggest issue is that it has become almost impossible to find good horses to buy for a reasonable price anymore.
