    This is how farm life goes - you must devide your work and attention according to priorities of a day or a season, and can not concentrate only on one thing, no matter how badly you woud like to. By the way I love Josh joining beards with the goat. And an orange shirt highlights it just perfectly 😂😂😂

    That really turned out to be a nice paddock/side pasture area, and yes, the animals getting set for winter..and beyond is just as important as the house, and you all did a great job on it(including the little helper/sword wielding task master who kept you on task ;) Try to find a organic wood preservative(or make your own,directions on the web)for those wooden posts though, to make them last longer, as nature surprisingly goes through them quick if you don't.

I have a soft spot in my heart for little kids.. I expect most people do. Good plan with the goats and the gates.. enjoy your videos.

    Great to watch good people who think and plan before reacting...able to delay immediate gratification for longer term goals...have their priorities in good order...admirable work ethic, respectful of others and themselves,, love each other and are positive role models for their children and you tube watchers. There are also other you tube homesteader examples that seem to be popular likely due to these same traits. Thank you all,

    When cutting the fence wire with the linemen plyers it leaves a sharp end sticking out that can cut. I take needle nose plyers and rotate the end back on itself flush to prevent this.

    Hi guys, I really enjoy watching your videos over here in the U.K.. watching you doing the electric fencing brings back memories of my farming days. The thing I really like is the ratchets you use on the end of each line which I’ve never seen before over here. An absolutely brilliant idea. Please keep up the great work for us all to enjoy

  • @kiwimum210
    @kiwimum210 4 роки тому +1

    Instead of moving gates make some wire strand ones.. You can simply add a short wire from your hot wire to keep the goats honest. Spring loaded handles are much cheaper than gates. In NZ we also made gates from wood battens and wire net.

    @jimc4731 4 роки тому +1

    Usually at the corners or end posts there is a second post some convenient distance away from that post on the inside of the run and then a diagonal post placed between the top of the end/corner post to the base of the second post, bracing the post. This keeps the corner post straight and helps hold the tension on the wire.
