    I love all your videos girl you are so blessed. Wheni i was like 10 years old i had to spend a whole summer at my grandparents on their farm. I never had so much fun than when the big mama pig had 12 babies. They were so cute and would scream their heads off if i touched them. Grandpa said i had to wait till they got older and he'd let me hold them. I fell in love with each one and named them all. I would sit for hours by that pig pen no matter how bad it stunk. I had to go home when it was time to go back to school. I cried all the way home. Grandma said she had never seen a girl take to animals like me. Those were good times. Love you guy's

    😘😘. You’ve definitely spoiled so many by ALWAYS sharing whatever you’re doing. People forget just hard your daily life is with just the ranch alone. When your kids were born they didn’t come as instant helpers.....you had to raise them too. Everything takes time to do and then you add filming not only to have memories but to share and educate it as well. I’m burned out and exhausted just typing this all out and I haven’t begun chores yet. I’d be happy with a few times a week or even one long one once a week just so you wouldn’t be burning candle at both ends at same time. Add as needed ......whatever works well for you. You’ve become a good source about anything and would hate to see it end cus it’s become to much. Just like those little ones getting banded it takes time to heal. Just want to say thank you for sharing all your knowledge and love of what you do and always a source people can count on. Everything great takes a lot of work to continue doing and GREAT you are. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

    You guys are my favorite and I do not care what you show I am just excited to see more videos. We had a pig when I was a kid and lived on a farm. We got him for free as a piglet. My dad helped a farmer castrate his piglets so my dad brought our piglet home. We named him snort and the intention was to eat him in time but he became a pet and my parents did not have the heart to butcher him. He would play ball, chase cars ( we lived in the country with very little traffic) and he played with our dogs so he thought he was a dog. he followed us all over the farm like a dog would as well. We moved and gave him to friends and they did butcher him and my sister and i were so disappointed that my sister became a vegetarian. I just love pigs along wih goats whcih I have never owned any goats.
