  • Well what started out as a field shelter/ark has now turned in to three separate pig houses and pens! More on why and when soon but the important thing is that their settling in quarters are all ready and secure. Won't be long before they are out and about enjoying the fields though.

    Great stuff Tim, Love watching the farm develop. We bought ours 4 years ago, my favourite jobs are the ‘farm’ ones, fencing, used timber, big nails…

    I think you need to get in touch with the artisan who did your lead on your previous roof to cap this off - just to fully over engineer this fully! Great use of leftovers, but does go against man-code as you should store/stack all “useful” bits for a “future project” that never materialises!

    • @TheRestorationCouple
      @TheRestorationCouple  2 роки тому

      Plenty left in the stack! Plus it’s already growing so fear not, a healthy ‘float’ of hoarded material will be ever present!

    And we've recently seen multiple occasions where a homestead rescue team advised penning pregnant, birthing, new, and aggressive pigs. It's great to be setup in advance! Well done.

    I am loving Farmer Tim and his Girls! I am originally from Kentucky and I have never heard of free range pigs. We had pigs when I was young, for our own consumption, and my ex-husband's grandfather raised pigs and sold to market. I can only imagine that free ranging pigs smells very much better than keeping them penned does!

    • @TheRestorationCouple

      Let’s hope so. They respect electric fence well so we hope to move them around the fields and trees every few days.

      Watch out. An electric fence may not be enough. Pigs are clever and will be able to figure out in a few hours if it is off.

    Live in France… and my French wife and neighbor decided they would raise some chickens… being retired guess who got most of the work building coops/ pens etc. I did though insist on heritage light Sussex breed, so bought one cock and three hens…I’ve named them George and the Georgette’s. I’m only saying this because George crowing and the Georgette’s chuckling are a whole lot of fun! All the very best with your farm!

    Our Labradoodle does the same as Maggie. As soon as the saw comes out he turns up for off cuts to chew. The only issues are, one tripping over him and two him crewing the bit you want to use rather than waist….

    My Bosch GKS 18V-57 G circular saw went back. It was underpowered and struggled. Fortunately it stopped working within warranty and I got a refund. The GKS 18V-68 GC BITURBO that replaced it is far better (and slightly bigger). Both are track compatible.
