Our Wyoming Life
PO Box 667
Gillette WY 82717
Join us on our journey as we leave a life in corporate america to come back to Wyoming and help on the family ranch.
Our Wyoming Life features our Wyoming ranch and our ranch family. Giving you a look into the workings of ranching from raising cattle to raising and harvesting crops. Erin will join you weekly out of the garden, showing you how she helps provide for our family through growing produce and selling at local farmers markets, and Mike will take you along as he tends to the animals and land of ranch, from calving to fencing to planting and harvesting hay.
People who like birds, are down-to-earth and wonderful people - another best thing about them, they are super honest so Mike, you are lucky to have this wonderful person your life, she will always take care of her family, specially you.
Baby peacocks learning from baby chickens, How cool!
Your kids have and will have a great advantage to their lives living there. I wish I grew up on a farm, it is too cool!
Why does Erin always look like a glamor queen? I’m a wreck on a good day!
Behind the scenes , Is where all the hard work takes place.
Peacocks are great for letting you know when someone shows up in your yard LOL. There is a yard about 5 miles from my work that has about 20 of them, they stay around their yard, I noticed a few younger ones this morning.
Mike, your an amazing man. I envy your life as I live and work in a city of 6 million people. I wish I had the opportunity to take on a ranch / farm like you. I start my day watching your new videos and rewatching some of the old ones before going to that rat race I call work in the city. Thanks for all you do and your wife too. I really enjoy the videos were you break down the costs. I had no idea just watering the cattle costs! Be good. From my Toronto life... Joel Taylor
That horse is one beautiful beast
Mike and Erin, that was really cool to look around the ranch, and the kids with their bunnies was just adorable. Thanks for sharing. JohnG
Love this channel. Found it almost a week ago and can’t stop watching your videos.
I could have watched one or two of your videos, but your narration and production quality make it hard to stop watching them. Well done!
Thank you very much - Mike
The bigger the bird the dumber the bird statement is pretty true. My brother in law worked on a farm once that raised ostriches. Ostriches are extra stoooo-pid. They had to put thin plywood in the corners to make them round,because a baby ostrich will get stuck in the corner and run themselves to death 😐
Wow. Now that is dumb. Thank you -Mike
Holy crow that broccoli head was huge! Nice job👍
It was a good size one. Thanks. :) Erin
The ranch roundup was planned for 100 guests. What’s the total number now. Really looking forward to seeing you guys. Thanks for the opportunity to visit
Thanks, Mike, for the tour around the range. Nice to have the animals as companions for the children. Always fun to see the activities on a Wyoming ranch. Much appreciated. - Dean from Minnesota
Thanks Dean from Minnesota. -Mike
Love the video, Mike...just wonderful to see all of your animals and all that you do in addition to the regular ranch work..."diversify"...that seems to be the name of the game in farming...I have so much respect for you, and all farmers...their dedication and hard work...Thank you!! All the best to you and your family and the channel...Love the channel...
thank you
Hi again! Yup the perfect ranch critter profile Mike! One of everything! Funny how that happens whether it's the space or the kids. Extra work and food but it just couldn't be any other way and you enjoy it too. Erin's veggies look wonderful and delicious especially the carrots and the broccoli. I'd live in Wyoming again if I could be within distance to the store. Thx for the tour Mike. Hope all goes good getting ready for the big event. God bless...
Enjoyed the tour of your ranch. Brought back memories when i was growing up on the farm.🚜
Much improved hog pen. Thanks for the tour folks.
Thanks bluemtnsman, it sure is a lot bigger. Someone is gonna have fun cleaning that out! LOL -Mike
Mike and Erin peacocks are so cute I love your farm family
Thank You Yolana. -Mike
Really enjoyed the behind the scenes. So nice to see that you have more animals than only cows.
All the animals seem so happy. Covered all the bases on this vid.
We have peacocks here in the California Sierra for rattlesnake control. LOVE all those vegetables and the secret to kale is massaging the leaves which breaks down the enzymes that can be off putting to some people. Love kale chips.
Thanks Beth Grant-DeRoos. Mike just doesnt like kale any way its prepared. :) Erin
That looks like so much work! Thank God for farmers and ranchers. I have no idea how you do it.
It is a lot of work KnowledableEd. But we get it done. Thanks for watching. -Mike
I sure enjoyed this video. Had no idea peacocks and turkey were not real smart and needed the help of all things, a chicken. Thanks for the close up of the baby male with his fan and the pretty blue color.
Thank you so much for the "tour" Mike. I don't know about other people, but I really liked how you did the walking around with the camera, less edited version that today was compared to some of your other videos. It was a great video!
Enjoy the animals especially the horses . Enjoy the video 👍👍
Thanks for watching Johnny. -Mike
Brea was 'spooky' because Hiro quickly turned his head to chase a fly and Brea interpreted that as Hiro telling her to move. It appears from this one interaction that Hiro is higher in status than Brea.
You are correct thanks -Mike
Excellent
Thank you very much, hope all is well sir! - Mike
All those beautiful veggies will go awesome with a nice beef roast!😍😍😍😍
I really enjoyed the tour and this type of video. It’s incredible that you and Erin handle all of this without any ranch hands. You are remarkable people!
Kids got big.oh my.
Mike & Erin thanks for the tour of all the critters that live around the house full time that was pretty cool it's been awhile and pigs are already pretty good size especially that one black one I can do that though great video thanks for sharing hope you have a great rest of the week
Thanks Ernest, Hope you do the same. -Mike
Gotta love the barn cats, Mike. Never see them till feeding time, then like ninjas, our 21 cats materialize. Haha. We are a mice free farm. Great video, love the kiddos.
Hi Mike and Erin, I came across your channel by chance a few weeks ago while doing some searching for Yellowstone Park. My girlfriend and I enjoy your program very much. We check out your channel and watch your videos every morning while we have our morning coffee. I saw your video regarding your "Our Wyoming Life" round up on August 24. We wish we could join you, Erin and the rest of your family and friends on the 24th but unfortunately, our arrival to Yellowstone and Gillette area will not co-inside. We live in Italy and this year we arrive in the states on the 28th. Every year around September, October, we take a month or so vacation to the west coast and travel around the California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, Colorado areas. At any rate, Monica and I want to thank you, Erin and your family for taking the time to post these videos. They are a joy to watch and a are a wonderful start to our mornings here in Italy.
cool view of the animals
Thanks james a Joachim. -Mike
Sr you are living the dream
Loved the tour of your ranch and all your animals. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see your next video.
Very laid back and enjoyable video.
Awesome video thank you guys so much for giving us a good channel to watch that always has great content! Thanks for showing us the animals
Thank You for the compliment. Appreciate it. :)Erin
Oh My indeed...!! That was such a fun video Mike. Thanks for sharing with us!!
Nice behind the scenes. Another amazing video. Have a good one
One thing I have to say about Erin ,she will work!
Great video. Thank you. Don't feel the need to indulge us in the next few weeks. We know you have a lot on your plate with the ranch Roundup. Best of luck.
I notice the horse's hooves are well maintained, thank you for that. I had thought perhaps if they were not really working the ranch - they might not have been given that level of care. Glad to see myself wrong.
P. S.
If your rescue horse will tolerate, take her along when you ride - just lead her. Let her see you ride and how that goes. A possible first step toward dealing with her trauma. She may never be able to let someone ride her - but it would be nice to at least get her to not fear humans - or at least her humans.
Nice to see how everything is growing. Aww runt, you need to catch up. Good video👍 dont think anyone or anything was left out. Thank you. Have a good week too.
Loved the animals. Thanks for sharing your life with us. Erin your vegetables are beautiful.
Thank You Marion T in NC. :) Erin
I love these videos! You guys are awesome.
Awesome vid Mike and and Erin. You can tell with the subscribers growing. Putting us wyomingers on the map! Keep up the good work 😁
Thanks rangin robert. I will try my best. Mike
Good video & good to see behind the seans
Enjoyed video today you have a lot of birds! I would love to be able to have all the different birds but will just have to be happy with my 18 chickens. Have great week!
Nice video, Mike and Erin! I think Erin is a master gardener, that was gorgeous produce! I think you should saddle up and give us a ride around the ranch on horseback sometime!🐎 You've definitely got a lot of mouths to feed on the ranch and they all look nice and healthy❤👍
Great Vid! Thank you!
Learning so much
Thanks for a fun trip around the ranch! Thanks for the info on the notches in the pigs ears - was wondering if it was used for identifying. Love, love, love this channel! Have a great week - looking forward to the live stream!
Thanks Debrah, and see ya then! -Mike
So.........you got a store for veggies etc?
If I’m ever in the neighborhood I’ll stop that’s if you got a store.
I drive a truck.
Very nice video great Ranch and nice family
Yes we have a store. You can like it on Facebook and get all the info. Our Wyoming life farm store. Thanks -Mike
was always wondering about the horse. surprised he has never made a riding video
Riding is my escape. No camera thanks -Mike
Please talk about your store...sometime. love your stories.
Thank you for sharing the horses 🐎, I recall you saying that’s your personal thing
great video Mike. thanks
Thanks Rodney. Have a good week. -Mike.
The horses cool mike
Thanks Thomas. -Mike
I really enjoyed this. Should I come out and get that horse rideable for you? That's kind of what I used to do. 😊
I'll tell you all about her when you are here. Thanks Jeff -Mike
Our Wyoming Life - if you can grow beautiful vegetable why is it tough to raise fescue grass for the cattle
@@lpvessell The garden is irrigated so grows well. I dont believe fescue is native to the short grass prairie that was/is wyoming. Would it overwinter?
The Leaf Hat on the bunny tho 😂😂😂 . 💪 Video Mike
Every bunny needs a hat!
Great video mike.
Good job 👍 from las Vegas NV
need a couple of goats to stake out and eat down those weeds. Around here we have several contractors that take goats around to clear waste & unproductive land preparing for reseeding pasture and clearing out drainage courses. They eat everything right down to the ground!
This is solid advice. Get pygmies, they're adorable.
Kitties! I wasnt huge on cats until my wife got me one last fall to help me through some medical stuff. I couldn't live without my cat now. Great video!
Thanks Bill. -Mike
Here's to the farmer!
Couldnt agree more! Thanks Kevin Wilder. -Mike
Loved the behind the scenes look at the ranch and ranch animals! Thanks for taking us along.
enjoyed the video...thank you
Thanks for watching Jody. -Mile
YOU SHOULD DO A 360 degree farm and drone cam, so we can control the cam wherever you are! Who's up FOR IT!
Love everything you post bud keep it up
Thanks for watching Justin. -Mike
Do your kids participate in 4-H ?
Nice look around, thanks for sharing some different views
Another great edit. Looks like Erin needs more sink and counter space.
Still catching up, -world's best $3000 truck. -Gilberts passing. You are a great story teller, Mike.
I spent some time in the harvest. Hay 75lb squares (make a man outa ya 😉), green beans and sweet corn. Love the machinery that gets things done. An implement that only does one job, and does it very well. Looking forward to more meet our machines segments.
Love and Blessings,
EZ
Thanks EZ appreciate that. -Mike
Your kids come up with the best names for the animals on the ranch😂😂😂
Thanks for showing us the “other” animals, Twizzler and nibbles are great names for bunnies. 🐇
Hi, Mike & Erin
O my y'all got all those beautiful animals. Erin very comfortable with that peacock just beautiful. Peacock & Turkey don't know how to eat. That very interested never knew that. Those horses so loveable those 🐖 very big. I love that rabbit to cute. Thanks for sharing. Mike look like u hopping on your leg. Go get some rest 💤 Thanks. Be Blessed 🙏😇 ❣️
Thanks Fleccia. -Mike
Thanks for showing all the other animals
Your welcome, and glad you enjoyed them. Thanks -Mike
Wow they have a great outdoor living space ( the pigs that is). Your peacocks are at a really cool stage with there little hair Doo.
That night be the first time I've seen your horses up close. The calves are smaller than I thought they would be . I always had bunnies they are my favorite.
Thanks for the tour Mike.
Jo Jo in VT
Ya'll have your hands full! Loved seeing the pigs, horses and bunnies! I can relate to the puppy issue! Sad, but it happens.
Yes the hands are full, but we'd have it no other way! -Mike
I just love there name's!!! The kid's picked good one!! They r so quite.
The kids sure do pick out some good names. -Mike
Your kids are getting life experience money cannot buy
Hey! Mike thanks for the videos I really enjoyed them you have gave me a lot of information on what it takes to be a rancher/farmer. I got a question if you don’t mind answering I keep hearing on the media that the farmers are the ones hurting a lot from president Trump trade war with China 🇨🇳. Has any of this issues have affected you?.. not trying to get you in to the political drama....thanks and say hello 👋 to your wife and kids for me....thanks all the way from Dallas TX....
Mike and Erin, we are traveling through the black hills from the Kansas City area and wanted to know where your farm store is and if we could arrange a meetup to present you with a couple of license plates. We love you and your channel and it would be such a treat to get to meet you while we're up here. We'll be in the sturgis area for a couple of days so would be in the Gillette area during the weekend of the 16th.
We hope to hear back from you soon. Take care.
Hello. The farm store is located at 1133 on hwy 50. You can like it on Facebook at our wyoming life farm store. Thank you very much
Great video , need a monthly update on the chickens and peacocks. please.
Thanks Seeping Srings Farm. Im sure there will be updates. Thanks for watching. -Mike
Love it ! I can see my self in a place like yours nice... such harmony...☺😊😊😊 💚💚💚🌹💚💚💚 👌
We love it too. Harmony is a good word to use too. -Mike
Just out of curiosity, why are they a gate Laying in the horse lot, not afraid of one breaking a ankle on it?
Just wish the chickens and peacocks had a partial outside run so they can feel the ground and the sun. What about building a portable covered movable run for them?
They will be moving into the big chicken house within the week. Thanks for watching -Mike
Heck yea I new video. I’ve been waiting
I didn’t mean that in a rude way just so you know.
Thoes sombreo's you wear are Chaka! Chaka in mexico is a city that sombreros are r3ally popular. Chakala, Mexico. They make thy finest sombreo's! The got 1000x that are remarkable! Chaka also means fresh by some locals
Mike you should make a video trying to round up cows riding a horse
there are also all red, white and black peacocks.
Brea needs some whispering.
Mike and Erin. Ask around with other Rancher's/Farmer's about a "Roundhouse" for your young chickens and peacocks. I ask a farmer once, who had a "Roundhouse" on his farm, What was the round building for ? He said that he raised his young birds in it, and it being round, the bird's could not bunch up in a corner and trample one another to death. Now I am a City Slicker, So I do not know if he was pulling my leg or not. 🤪............🇺🇸.........Rick. Pittsburgh, PA
Nope he was right, cool temps, sudden drafts, gnats, and an assortment of issues can cause birds to pile up, causing trampling and suffocating. Round pens minimize that effect.
@@Farming_in_Eden Thank You !
guessing the steers at about 9:30 ish are the ones that will be finshed out for butchering
Can you explain why trees don't grow out there? I know it's prairie, but you'd think you'd have a few around the house, is it the soil, wind?
Our house was placed here 6 years ago. We have trees around it in the yard. Thanks - Mike
Nice video! Ty
Thanks Pam T. -Mike
Just watch the video. Was great. Mike you need to video you riding the horse in amongst the cows in pasture. Is that horse part morgan and paint. Thanks for the video it was great
