***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out 2 new videos every week! Tuesday and Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.
We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.Today we are giving an update on our Jersey cow, Hope, and her new calf along with other lessons we have learned on the farm this summer.
AHHHH Hope is such a good Mama..one of God's wonders. Does my heart good in these awful times.
First time I’ve seen a milk mustache or beard on a chicken.
I had no idea chickens liked to drink milk.
Lol😂😂
@@debbiericker8223 chicken eats anything
@@davisangeIf they will pick through cow patties (which I just learned), i guess that's true!
@@debbiericker8223 oh wow. I didnt know they do that!😆 you learn something new everyday! Sometimes multiple new things!😂
The more the new calf drinks Hope's milk the more he will smell like her. Their odor is determined by the mother's milk. He is smelling more like Hope and Henry! Hope can smell what you can't. It's one of the ways a cow can tell which is her calf. It's the same with most mammals.
I've seen people use a cow or a horses urine on the calf or colt to speed up the scent and bonding process. Pretty neat.
And the urine or milk changes the smell of the calf. It works!
Make sure they nurse at the,stall too when your milking, more is better with the smell from the milk. If Art & Bri can do this you all can too, you are so good with all on your farm. Blessings to the journey and good health for all
Awww... brought tears to my eyes when Hope was caressing the new calf. She's such a good mom ~ protecting Henry from the new calf and now that Henry has bonded with NC ~ Hope has accepted him ~ a family affair. Awesome.
Absolutely loved this mornings video, it was so precious when Hope🐂 licked the new calf 🐄.
I actually teared up. I felt the way Sara face looked such a precious moment.
Thank you for sharing your lives with us. God bless your precious family.
Hope is like: well, if you're going to stick around we might as well get you cleaned up. 😍
HOPE,HENRY AND HAPPY,,,I LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone looks so good!
When hope licked the calf it brought a tear to my eye
It's so heart warming to see Hope licking the little one. I love animals and wish everybody else loved them as much as I do. Regardless of what the animal is whether it be for meat, milk or a pet, it's good to see how much you care for your animals.
Sarah I love the way you take things in stride and just climb the gate.
So nice to see a husband an wife working side by side an in unity with each other sharing in the chores an food prep an growing,butchering an canning...
Hi guys. I just wanted to say what a fab job you have done with Hope, she looks in amazing condition, such an improvement to how she looked when you first got her. x
i bet there are many more “cubbies”! 🤣
I definitely agree with you!
About 3 to 10 more hidden nest.
I like when you found the first eggs in the rabbit nests and the rooster crowed, saying " She found them!"
Yes Hope! I'm so glad she accepted the new baby! I was worries she wouldn't. Such a beautiful sight🤗
Warmed my heart to see mama licking son no. 2. So happy it all seems to be working for their little “family” of 3.❤️
I am so thrilled to see that Hope has accepted the new calf! Congratulations!
The new calf looks less skinny already and Hope and Henry look terrific. Hope was awfully thin when you got her.
I started to cry (with a huge smile on my face) when HHope started licking the new calf.
So sweet. Hope is the best .Just love her
I wish I had the energy of these ducks first thing.
I used to have a hard time thinking about animals on a farm being processed, but now I think how wonderful that they really have a charmed life. It’s all good until one day it is quickly done with. You have healthy food and they were the lucky ones to not have lived in the factory farming system. Love your channel!
That was so beautiful! Men don't usually express such feelings so publicly like you did. Sarah is a very lucky woman to having such a caring and proud husband!
Hope is the sweetest cow that I have ever seen. Love that moment she was licking the calf, that’s Hope’s way of showing she has taken her adopted calf for her own. 💕
The chickens with their little milk mustache reminds me of the cats in the barn begging for some hand milked lunch! So fun! Love seeing the animals-although I know you 2 are so busy! Take care.
Milk mustache and beard. :)
You two sure stay BUSY with all of your critters!!!!! It was so sweet seeing Hope take to the little new baby!!!!!!
Hello from Harmony ME ! We call our CHICKENS Rototillers ! Because they scratch/ spread the wood shavings on the Ground , from all of our rabbits and chicken n duck trailer bedding for fertilizer ! Saves our BACKS and less work for US here on the HAPPY CAMPER COMPOUND IN HARMONY MAINE
Hope licking the new calf is so heartwarming. That poor little baby needs some special love that he was denied at original farm. Milk for the birds, lol. You take such great care of all your animals. How in the world did you ever find those hidden eggs ?
I was so glad to see Hope licking and tending to the new baby. It really made me emotional. The whole farm is looking so beautiful and soon the pigs will furnish you with food and the gardens have been a bounty of glory.......so wonderful. This whole year has been a true testament of your journey and growth with being so dedicated to your land and your work. Everything looks fantastic and soon new neighbors in Kevins parents coming back to live by you. God is good and you shine goodness through His grace. An awesome year for you guys even through all the worlds turmoil.
God bless! Love your channel and your teaching us all how to do things along with the recipes! Yumm
It's a love love situation.
I remember when you first allowed those pigs over into that extra area, and it was solid with tall, overgrown grass and weeds. Didn't take them long the strip it down to bare dirt. I'm sure they were in "hog heaven" while doing it.
So awesome to see Hope licking the new baby. YAY!!!!!!
So happy for you all.
You all please take care and be safe!
Nothing like livin' on a farm... Doesn't matter how big it might be... You all have a beautiful place... It reminds me of the farm next to my home place... back in the 50s in southwestern Ohio... Lot of warm memories...
Aww love to see her licking him! They look like they’re doing really well. Loved seeing all your critters. It’s getting cooler here in NH. Temps in the low forties and could have some colder mornings this week.
Loved seeing Hope licking the calf. What a great bonding to see now. All good now......
Honestly, this channel could just video an hour of calves everyday and it would be a raging success!!!
As soon as I saw sweet Hope licking the new baby, I said "all is well now"! No more worries because that's her way of letting it know she's mama and is going to take good care of it. I nearly cried when I saw her licking him. She's a good mama! Enjoyed seeing your other animals and going on an "Easter egg hunt" with you. That's so funny they do that instead of laying in their nesting box. I'd love to find someone near me that sold fresh eggs.
So glad to see y'all back & that mama is taking to her new calf..she's such a good mama
Awww... love your parents! So glad they get to be with you.
The new calf already looks like he is filling out. Good job Hope!
I loved seeing all the animals, but the best part was seeing hope totally accept the new calf. That is one special mama cow!
Absolutely love watching you two!! This very moment my family and I are in the Arkansas Osarks hunting for our very own homestead. We are leaving Goodyear AZ, the fastest growing city in America (west of Phoenix) ... we grew up there and The population/city growth is nothing like we have ever seen. People are fleeing California and the eastern states. My husband and I call this “the great migration”. We are migrating too, I was born in Yellville Arkansas and my parents left the area because there wasn’t work opportunity... the sold their 40 acres 😭 and moved west. Well 40 years later I am officially getting back to my roots!
Thanks for reading! Take care, stay safe, and God bless you all!
Good luck with finding your homestead. Arkansas and the Ozarks and Ouachita mountains are my favorite place in America. Fine folks too.
Kate McWaters we’re in Queen Creek, AZ and are about to do the same!! It’s gotten too city out in the “country” of Arizona!
@@katethewholenesshomeembody6024 ... I love that phrase. It's gotten to city out here in this country! 👩🌾
Good luck-Stay safe-Wear a mask
Stop in the Extension Office in Yellville and say hello :)
Another outstanding video from Living Traditions. Glad to see all is well with everyone and everything.
I am so pleased to see the new calf doing so well. He definitely would suit the name Hudson Xx
Hope is giving him kisses!!!! What a blessing!
My mom said I must leave one egg in the nest otherwise they find another nest.
I’d out a fake egg in each of the nests and the hidden ones, it means they will continue to lay there and not find a new place
Hope is a special cow. So glad she turned out to be an easy "nurse cow" for you. Silkies are cute. Their most redeeming quality is that they are great setting hens and fantastic mothers. Natural incubators and brooders.
Hope is a good soul! She is a good mom to both her babies!❤️
Brought tears to my eyes to see Hope lik new calf. When is the name coming? Are your parents still there. Do they want to move? Turkeys look beautiful.
Always good seeing you guy's, just love the animals they have there own personality just like are children are so different from each other. It's so good to see how good your feeling Sarah you have recovered wonderfully. God bless you and your family 🤗🙏
WOW, talk about milk mustaches!!! :-) And SO glad to see that Hope is accepting the new little one!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! And YAY for cute baskets!!!
So sweet to see HOPE licking the new baby calf! Great video ! Also the chickens with the milk on their faces! So cute !
Great to see Hope being a good mom to both calves. I love the animal tours. 🍂🎃🍁
Didn't see a link or any thing on the community page to vote but I like "Hudson" for the new calf's name. So good to see him and Henry being so good friends and playing together and so heart warming to see Hope licking the new calf. Lovely to see all the animals and you do your egg hunt. Best Wishes from Blackpool in the U.K
Here is a link to the poll so you can vote on the new name! ua-cam.com/users/LivingTraditionsHomesteadcommunity
It's in discription box
I agree, Hudson is a grand name for the newest addition
@@LivingTraditionsHomestead Hudson 🗳
Living Traditions Homestead I vote for Hank
LOL!! The chickens put new meaning to GOT MILK.. Smiles! Hugs!
It's funny that when you got Hope you said. 1 cow and one baby is enough. Not going to get more cows. Now you'll have your own herd :) love it!!
My bantams would change their laying spot every time I found out where they were laying
I think you should call him Herbie
AKA. HERB.
Glad to see everything is doing well.
I didn't know chickens liked milk!!! Lol!!! Learn something new every day.
Thank you for taking the time to share with us. God bless you and your family.
They also help eat bugs. Especially in areas where ticks are favorable.
Hubby taught me a bit about chickens
Ñothing better than Mama love. Have to admit they made me cry - heartstrings. The farm is thriving. Just beautiful. ❤️
It is heartwarming to see Hope licking that new baby! I was a bit worried that he wouldn’t be fully accepted, and being out on so much pasture, ya’ll wouldn’t be able to tell...
Hudson just like the plane that landed on the Hudson. A miracle cow and calf union! Love your videos always positive and i so look forward to each one. I hope the house sale for your parents is going well. It would be nice if they were settled before Christmas. Lots to celebrate!
Be well, and God bless us all. Our Thanksgiving in 🇨🇦🇨🇦 is this weekend.
How amazing to see the new calf being so well taken care of. He is already putting on weight. That folgers can may be as old as I am lol!
You must have a giant freezer!!! LOL Beautiful farm!!! I love that Hope adopted Harvey!!! TY
Love you two, really enjoy your vlogs, it was lovely looking around your homestead. Since watch your vlogs I’ve canned jars of Tomatoes sauce which I learned from you, I’ve made chutney, mint sauce, cucumber pickle, apple sauce, all from my own garden. And my freeze is full to the brim with homemade apple pies, crumble, since watch your vlogs I’ve thrown nothing away and save a fortune too. Xxx Lincolnshire UK
HUDSON He seems so contented with a mom now .
what a thrill to see Hope accepting the new one as 'hers' ! about those eggs… I'm just wondering how you found them especially way out in that Haybarn. LOL
Okay its official you made me cry. To see Hope bonding with that poor little dairy baby. They dont come into the world gently. Ive seen it. To know he will have a good time while hes there is a blessing.
Isn't God so good to allow Hope and Henry to welcome the calf into their family. I just love it when He writes a happy ending to a story. I just voted and can't wait to see which name is the winner. Beautiful vlog today! 😊
Love Hope and her boys. Just wondering how close your parents are to moving back. Hope all is going well with them.
How about "Moses" for the new calf's name? Moses was adopted by Pharoah's daughter.
BanDana Gramma that’s cute!!!
That's cute, but I wouldn't want to eat a Moses.
@@christinatoliver Who gonna slit Moses throat...
lol true
I like Moses but I’ll go with Hudson. Love you guys! May the Lord continue to bless!
Lol those chicken with the milk running down their beards was so funny and just adorable!! And I thank God every time I see Hope and am thankful she is doing so well, that was some scare after sweet Henrybwas born. And her taking in the new calf is heartwarming. Blessings y'all!
animals have a much better sense of love and compassion than many humans...
You have got to love the chickens MILK BEARD. more like a GOATEE
On that larger egg. I once saw one that size with my chickens some years ago. I never thought about it till about a year later when one of the chickens laid another one the same size.
When we went to cook the eggs they was no yolk.
About a year later I was out on the property doing some late night work and I saw a really bright light come out of the coop. I did not hear anything.
I did not think about it too much and I went on and finished my chores.
The next morning my mom told my brother to go collet the eggs. When he came back he had a large egg just like the last 2 years.
I asked my mom if we could try to hatch it. My mom was like OK but there has never been a yolk but you can try. So I tried.
About 3 weeks later I got home from school and all my brothers and my parents were gone and the only think on the property besides the animals was this 25 foot chicken. He looked at me and said "Thank you for hatching me and sorry for your family but I was hungry" and he flew away never to be seen again.
Sorry I have to go now the nurse is calling my name. It is time for my meds.
Very funny. The first book I ever read was called "the enormous egg" a chicken laid the egg, but a tricertops hatched out of it. You'll have to read the book to find out what happened. lol 🤪🤣
I don't want to tell you that I'm 63.
You know the same thing happened to me go figure...🤣🤣
@@charlielewis6849 What type of meds you on?
Eggztra special meds :3
Lol.🤣
OH YES, I SAY: "HARVEY"
-Frankie Harvey-
Ps) I'm a little bias.😉💕
I'm praying for everyone 🙏.
I know something good is going to happen today Amen 🙏. GOD bless your family amen 🙏. Enjoy this wonderful day GOD has blessed us with Amen 🙏. GOD is always with you Amen 🙏. Hugs.
As a child, years ago, I learned to note where the chicken laid her egg. I would hear the "puck, puck, padack" and sure enough there was an egg there. Free range chickens are creative on their nests!
The farm is looking so good.
Good day on the home- Farmstead, with animals. Maybe a larger duck egg. Would you be able to tell us, may you have apple trees and what type of trees on your property any apples growing??? I grew up on a grandparents hobby farm in the 1970's🇨🇦.👩🌾 it's so good to hear you both together 🤠 talk about the jobs hub-grub, tasks to detail in description for clarity in each area of the homestead. I do enjoy your videos very much thank you both..also I enjoy a basket ,never underestimatethepower of a hand crafted basket ! it's like being there. I so appreciate it for every angle of enjoyment and hard working the labour of love, to reap the rewards! thank you🧐👍😟💖💞
A cup of coffee and a farm animal update from ya'll is better than anything on tv. Where else would I see a chicken that's an add for "Got Milk?" I did chuckle at gate hopping for eggs..a day in the life of chicken's. Be blessed ya'll 😂❤🙏
Yolklahoma Rocks I immediately thought of the GOT MILK ad, too!🤣😂
@@angelblohm2171 lol i know right!
Henry is precious, glad they are both well.
I couldn’t find it in the community tab🙄 but I like Harvey. Henry and Harvey seem to flow well. 😊 Still enjoy your videos even though I rarely comment!
I couldn't either.... I like Harvey cuz it's a family name but I really love HUDSON
It's in the description box
Sarah you had me in stitches when you said “ whoops I gotta lay an egg” LOL thought I’d break a rib laughing 😂
Me too! 😂
Awwwh, my heart leaped for joy when I saw Hope licking the new baby. Great update on all the animals. God bless!
The new baby is looking so much better already!!
I had to vote Hudson. Every one of the other 3 are names of one of my Dad's siblings, or their offspring. Really. I was hoping Horace was on the lineup. He was one of the nicest giants I ever knew. May he RIP. Thanks for the fun videos. BTW, how many miles are you from Marceline MO?
Didn't see a link, but I like the name "Hudson"
I agree
I didn't see a link or anything on the actual community page either
Me too! Hope, Henry and Hudson
If you click beside their name up by the very top is a community as well as other links.
@@jimmieburleigh9549 its there now just postdated a few minutes ago
So glad to see Hope has taking the baby as her own!
You are a caretaker for the animals, that pretty garden and the amazing farm you have. I 🙏 we all be ok from the virus and other danger too. Thanks for sharing and God Bless You
A friend of mine calls it in his process pigs he’s taken them to freezer came
I can’t find the Survey. I wrote Hutson
In the description box
Hudson?
All of your animals seems to be pretty happy, and healthy
OMG..I got a little emotional when Hope started licking the new calf..ohhhhh so sweet..she's such a good mama
Name him Howard. Then you can call him Howdy.
Oh... I'm so happy she accepted him!!
Milk beards!! LOL!!!
If you want the girls to lay in the nesting boxes you could put some fake eggs in there and it seems to work. It was so cute seeing their faces when they were drinking the milk.
Talk about a milk mustache on those black chickens. Wow the dark brown eggs are beautiful.
OMG, those chickens are the cutest! Sara, I love your attitude about the animals. So enjoy your site. I'm so happy that Hope has accepted the new baby; I was heartbroken when she kept pushing him away that first day. Be safe and stay well.
Great to see the little calf get lots of loving from Hope! 🥰
I voted for Harold to be the name of the new calf. Your animals look great!! Be blessed.
Egg hunts and cute baskets!! How fun. Love that Hope was giving the new calf a bath.
