I lost all of my green beans. Ive got a fence around my garden also. Come to find out I fenced the rabbits that were already in my garden. An entire family!!
Oh no!!
Have Magen to touch the fence each evening to be sure there are plenty of voltage. 7600 volts should not curl her hair. …“LoL”
PS: Love you guys!!!
The raccoon probably jumped out of a tree and is still inside the fence.
I've seen it happen.
Most people forget raccoons climb trees and any nearby or overhanging your fence is just another path for them to get inside
We have a tree that the limbs are pretty high, we wondered if maybe that’s how they got in but not sure how they got out 🤔
Another great video look at her helping she’s such a little trooper. She always wants to help and her big brother is cutting the grass. That’s wonderful.❤
Looks like Gods abundance and overwhelming Goodness has surely touched your family!!🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
WOW beautiful corn, especially, since you didn’t spray/treat with chemicals! I thought for sure, it would be a lot of worm damage! Hardly any, awesome! Still fighting the Toads, a mole, and an armadillo 😂😂 I don’t fight the locust, he’s happy & I’m happy he’s not in my green beans, yet, this year 😂😂 Hi Maggie nice job shucking that corn!!❤Hi, Jacob, I could hear you doing your chores❤ thank y’all for sharing! God be with us all ❤
I certainly pray your remaining ears are left alone. Ya'll work so hard for the harvest. Love your channel guys. Many blessings!
Thank you!!
Take out corn in walk in cooler they let you then the church has a walk in cooler so glad you have gotten corn we love you Maggie Jake special so neat and know
In addition to Ol' Sparky, we need to set out traps about 2 weeks prior and all through the harvest week. The electrons in the wire are a good deterrent, but there's always one or two critters who find a way in. Last year it was a Momma and 3 juvenile Skunks. Never heard of that before but there they were.
warm clothes lots of coffee, small caliber with a thermal LOL oh yes and a nice chair to sit in for hours at least over the VA side on the line
Thank God he supplies our need thank Jesus hallelujah we love you all best farmers ❤
Awesome you got your 200 + ears for the family and freezer. Good to hear the quality is so good also.😊
I think it is safe to say, he loves his corn! lol I'm so glad you got some and hoping that the raccoons don't come back and get the rest.
Yall brave,, I'd have to have on jeans and tall boots....Im scared of snakes..lol Thanks for making these videos,,, this is how I grew up in Bladen County, NC...
If the squirrels in my neighborhood can be believed, winter here in central IN shouldn’t be too horrible. Walnuts have been coming down, and the squirrels don’t seem too interested in them so far. Oh, and the goldenrod is just starting to bloom. Hard to believe the frost might only be 6 wks away. (We shall see). Temps here are in the upper 90’s right now. I’m so thankful for air conditioning!!
All that hard work and a few varmets. These storms are making animals crazy . Looking good have a blessed day ❤️🙏
Come summertime, I could make a meal off of corn on the cob, and mater sandwiches, and fresh lemonade to drink!
Bueatiful corn 🌽 I'm so proud of you'll !!!! You'll have a Bueatiful family thoes kids are the best thay work hard and help so much you'll are raising them right my hat is off to you'll !!!! God bless from Maryville Tennessee
Thank you so much!
That corn looked beautiful ty for the video 🙂❤️
We had a raccoon and a possum that ran around together. My son got the possum but the raccoon escaped. The next time we saw the raccoon he showed up with a skunk. We could not believe it. I think he brought the skunk with him to use as a weapon 😂.
Love watching y’all.
Great Job!😇
Mutated flying critter wings popped out when he smelled your corn.
😂
I'm so glad that you got your harvest! Hope those critters leave the rest alone.
We had trouble with crows, then ground hogs....but our later plantings of honey select are coming along now and will (hopefully) produce real soon. We did get a few odd ears to enjoy from our earlier planting and it is SO good. You're right--everything has tasted so, so good this year. The tomatoes, peppers, squash, etc. have been wonderful. The potatoes are good...and I can't even describe how sweet the slicing onions have been. I walk around smelling like an onion. lol They are like candy. We grow Patterson yellow and Red Zeppelin reds.
Hope the rest of your garden season is great!! God bless ya.
Oh no! Maybe you could put out deer cameras to catch them in the act 🤔
Great idea!
Hey hey from West Columbia SC! We are a small homestead and just found y’all!
Glad to have y’all here! Y’all ain’t to far from us!
Great video! Good looking corn harvest, thankful y’all were able to get what y’all have so far. Good luck with those critters,only thing I can think of is what my wife Robbie Lynn suggested in her comment, is to setup a deer/trail camera to see if you can catch them on camera to see how they are getting in? Thanks for sharing 👍🏻👍🏻😊😊
Good idea!
I have watched other videos where the grass or something touching the fence can cause it to not work in that area that it’s touching. Go around your whole fence and check the power all the way around
We keep it pretty clean around the fence, we’ve checked the power in several different places, but a trap and 22 are doing the trick now 😂
Is that Silver Queen ? that's my favorite I am glad they did mess up all of it.
It’s honey select, if you’ve never tried it you definitely should, it’s our favorite!
@@TrueGritAppalachianWays I never have , but will first chance I get.If it's as good as silver 👑 then I know I will love it.
Great Job guys!😇!😇?I!😇?

We are almost in the millennial reign so that may be why stuff is growing better. It will grow faster than you can harvest it according to the Bible.

Yum, love sweet corn. We had our first corn last night. The crows got most of our seeds when we planted it. Got any tips for that
We don’t have that problem usually but I have heard tale of people putting strings up and down the rows to slow the crows down
What about a ground hog
Have you tried freezing your corn in the husks? It works well for me. No blanching. Your corn is beautiful!
I can usually fit 4 ears to a gallon freezer bag. Cut off most of the stem but not the top, just leave it like you picked it. None of mine were freezer burned.
I’ve heard of this but always been to scared to try it haha!
re any tree limbs hanging over the fence? They'll take the shock on the way out to get away.
There is one tree that the limbs are really high on, we were wondering if they would jump in, but then there is only a very small section of fence that the netting is wide enough for them to squeeze back through, but one thing is for sure I ain’t putting nothing past these coons apparently they are smarter than we are 😂😂😂
Dogs put some in it save your corn 🌽
My corn has been destroyed by damn squirrels this year. Could that be an option for yall?
I reckon it’s definitely possible!
Did ya check power on net down low?
Yes we did checked it in several different places…
If it's raccoons, you need to have a raccoon harvest. Hear they aren't bad eating.
A 22 and a trap has helped tremendously the last few days 😂
Could it be a groundhog that tunneled under?
I reckon it sure could be 🤔🤔🤔
What do yall use for fertilizer on your corn
We use crimson clover cover crop in the winter and 10-10-10 when we planted it
God will provide! I bet your culprit is a whistlepig....that is our problem here...anyways. 😊
Wire not hot enough
Andy-0 raccoons-2 😮
