    I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
    At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

    Huge thumbs up to that delivery driver.

    Oh, a lot of us guessed right, even down to debating what extras you might do with the space. I'm with Gina on the butter, so I back getting a cow, you won't regret it.
    Being able to have stalls open out to that pasture, and bringing the opportunity to have all your land come into full time use is wonderful. Maybe pigs and goats rooting and browsing in the woods, meat birds and other animals on the pasture? It doesn't get much better than that.
    I'm glad the goods have arrived, as a subscriber I wanted to say, thank you Jamaica Cottage Shop for sponsorship of this build series. I can't think of a more deserving channel than Lumnah Acres for that sponsorship.
    JCS have been great for Lumnah Acres, and if I lived in the States, I'd be ordering from them for sure.
    It's going to be a busy few weeks getting that all up before winter, as well as the daily routine jobs. Fingers crossed Gina can avoid the heights. I'm hoping that with Al's history of using JCS products, being used to their system will help speed up the build. 🤞 I throughly enjoyed the barn build. Hoping you both stay safe doing this one, always the most important part.
    And of course, in the current climate, stay safe, everyone.

    You put too much peanut butter on the store trap. Just a mouse bite size on the trip lever . A bite size piece of cheese also works. He starts nibbling on that big gob and sets it off. I always have good luck with them . Also i like the instant kill with the store bought vs the slow drowning in the bucket.

      Agreed. More importantly, the mouse sized bite should be in the middle of the trigger at the farthest point away from all the sides.

      I usually wedge a raisin into the trip lever, and push the peanut butter in and around the raisin. Sometimes it seems they lick off the peanut butter without setting off the trap, but pulling and chewing on the raisin gets them every time.

    • @benlasiewicz3248

      I put the peanut butter only on the 4 edges of the cardboard and no peanut butter on the cans this way they have to commit. I put a good amount on the cardboard, makes it worth their while to try several attempts. I don't use ramps, the bucket is placed about even with benches and selves, a little jumping onto the cans is more effective.

    That gentleman sure knew how to manipulate that rig down the driveway. On the first load, he fairly danced between the trees. He made it look so easy. I am excited for you to start this build and I hope and pray you have good weather all the way. BTW I can see more coops and sheds built on those skids in the future. They are long enough for a little cottage with a porch. hahaha. Have a Blessed day.

    Did ya correct the traps, store trap needs to have “bait side” against the wall (90 degrees to wall)
    Homemade trap - remove hanger & cans, replace with single wooden Dow, only place peanut butter in center, not near edges.place bucket on floor, they’ll find it, lol

    • @ronwhite6719
      @ronwhite6719 4 роки тому +7

      I agree to put the peanut butter right in the center so he has to walk over the can to get it. I also suggested to put a little on the ramp just a little bit. I also used a wooden dowel, its a better axle. Caught 13 in 1 week.

    Speaking as someone who's worked with a few folks who fly drones for agricultural work, Gina is quite a talented drone pilot. Gina, have you ever thought of doing ground school and flying for other farmers in your area?
