Your horses will need as much hay as they can eat during the colder nights. They eat to make body heat so feeding them as much as you can give them will help them a lot. Also, if you have access to beet pulp in bags at your local farm store, you can take that and put some in a buck and add warm water to it and soak it. Give it to them in the middle of the night when the freezing temps are at their worst. Your horses will love you for it and it will prevent them from not drinking along with keeping their stomachs safe due to the extreme cold.
Great advice above. Don't skimp on the hay in their stable, they need it to eat to keep warm. Before we put up fences they would roam, find shelter and grasses to eat.
My grandfather kept beagles outside, in dog houses. He bedded them down with deep straw on the floor, maybe hay? They naturally pushed up against the door opening, and they stayed snug and warm. You work hard to take good car e of your animals.
@@debbiemcdowell849 People are just interacting with helpful tips. Dutch already said he likes that, and even asks for them. .... It's criticisms he's not fond of.
@@debbiemcdowell849 it's no secret that Dutch is new to having horses. The advice was provided in a kind, knowledgeable way. I'm sure it would be well received by Duth and fam, who take great care of their animals
If you put straw (not hay) on the ground of the horse shelter it will make it easier to scoop manure & pee with a hay fork. Also will make a warmer place to lay if they decide to & will prevent hoof problems by keeping them from standing in their waste when you clean it once or twice a day. Also could use shavings instead of straw. They won't eat either.
Please consider putting stall mats or straw down for the ponies, it will help keep them comfortable. Also a nice warm mash at night will help them fight the cold and yes very sloppy is good.
Pearl does look like she's gonna have babies. Taco soup and cornbread looks delicious. Looks like you have good shelter for the animals. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
You can try straw in the horse shelter. If you use hay they will eat it for sure. As another person commented horses do eat to stay warm. Our horses eat off a round bale in the winter. I would definitely feed them more. They should have 1.5 pounds of hay per 100lbs of body weight per day each. The one thing I’ve learned having horses is…..they eat a ton. I call them hay burners. They are expensive pets that’s for sure but fun!
I would use straw, and finish that one side, as a pet lover their limited. wild horse they move more and are constantly grazing. Love your little farm.
Your doing a great job. If anything put straw on horse shelter floor. They may eat it too but you could also hang hay bags in the shelter or on the Trees. You could also add those little mineral/salt block hangers around kinda sheltered from the weather. Just a few thoughts. Great job with all you and your family are doing. Love the masonry heater.
Wow it got golden brown and everything! There was no fire in the bottom?!? How long does it hold heat like that??? That masonry oven is awesome! Made my mouth water… I’m telling ya … masonry oven cookbook! It’s a winner winner taco dinner 😂❤
I don't know but I'm thinking a bail of straw for the horses. In case the do lay down. Hey thank you dad something new to eat our hay out of! The soup & corn bread look really good. Where's Brandi & the girls? 👋 Take care & see you next time. Hopefully Pearl & Percy will get all the way on side of their shelter. Good job Hadley ❤😉🤗🇺🇸🦃 Happy Thanksgiving!🎃 🙏👋
Wow she getting so big and cooking already it's great they help with the farm Tell everyone I said hi and wow those girls have grown so much I love horses I had once but had to move wish I could have another one but I have COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease it's a lung disease I'm on oxygen so I like watching you all
I found with my small quarter Horse, he needed here in South Carolina, everytime I mucked out I put down shavings, but I also kept hay in his stall at all times as well, with water. But you do you man.. I just think it makes for better horse life. Healthcare and all around better on you as far as work load.
Love your new glasses they look really smart. I love your pigs and how they come running for the food, the small horses are cute, I like their colours and names chief and eddy. Amanda from Scotland xx
Those pigs will be great with all that straw in the tunnel-they will burrow in it to keep warm., Your horses would probably appreciate some straw on the floor of their shelter, insulates them some from the cold ground I would think. Totally enjoy watching yous all-great video
Straw from things like wheat and bean stalks. Hay is the more scratchy stuff from grass, alfalfa, and the like. Straw more for bedding though some will also eat it. Hay more for food. Maybe more convenient to move the animal shelters closer to fence, gate, where you feed in cold weather. We fed and watered in the barn mostly, especially in winter when grazing not available.
Touch I feed my horses and many horses twice a day. In the winter I give him one level teaspoon each of salt that way they drink more water helps prevent colics
I love how happy you’re fireplace and oven make you. I love how sweet you are to your girls. Hadley made some good grub! I think your animals are blessed to have you.
Oh yeah preggers!! That means babies in January-February maybe?!? ❤ She is just so cute the way she sits!! I’m sorry - I laughed when she bit you 🤣 it was the look on your face! Thanks for sharing ❤
Why is it most animals want to eat from the bottom of their food? 🤷♀ You and them pigs was funny watching Dutch!! 😏😏 Oh That cornbread looked perfect!! All of it looked delicious for sure!! 😋😋😋
Hint….wire the hay bunk to the fence post. The horses will pull it around the pen and eventually destroy it……Pearl says”when I sit…….. you give me my treat or I’ll take it from you.” 😂😂😂🐽🐽🐽when pearl has her babies would they be SEED Pearls or Keshia Pearls?……add a flap made from the trampoline to the top of the pig hut, to block some of the wind……….I would have some sort of wind break near to but not attached to loafing shed……..Horses NEED bedding. Things to remember ……..some types of wood products are harmful or toxic (maple)to horses….when purchasing chips or shavings you can never be sure what is in it. Saw dust is just that DUSTY and can cause lung problems. To bad you didn’t save the by products from your mill. Then you could be sure what was in it. The two main purposes of bedding is warmth and protection from moisture and ammonia. Careful when choosing straw….watch for mold…..again lung problems. Love your site.❤️❤️❤️
If you do add a wall to the shelter for ponies add some straw for them to lay on, it will add insulation for them in the cold, as hardy as they are they can still get cold , especially as it gets so cold at night
Hey hey from Australia again Dutch! Love the little horses shelter and yes Eddie is pawing as hes anxious and excited all at the same time. You may find he will do the same if he is tied up and doesnt know what is happening. Once he ages a little he may stop it. Or not. Hahahahaha on the pigs going around the water/pond in their run hahaha I've not seen a piggie run like that for ages. Thankyou for the laugh.
The pigs going around the water was so cute 🥰 Maybe they what knock the straw bails down going in and out in and out. Like that the girls are doing some of the cooking, no better time to learn then now. They will be prepared for letting down the road 🛣️ God bless 🙏🙏💖
My neighbor's dog would be out in the yard rolling in the snow and having a great time. However, if he saw someone looking through the window, he would cower and shiver and shake like he was dy-ing. Oh my soul, what an awful scene of abuse and neglect. Until the person left the window. More rolling and frolicking. He deserved an oscar.
Just a note: When you break up ice on the water buckets, please remove as much ice as you can from the buckets. The ice in the water makes it too cold to drink, it burns their mouths. The stock will thank you if you refill their morning water buckets with room temp water.
Hint, hint. When pouring something like the beef broth, pour from the side across from the spout. It allows the fluid to flow better. Same with pouring a bottle of oil into your vehicle..
So cool you get to use the Masonry heater as an oven as well. Love Taco soup. We add a can of black beans rinsed and a package of ranch dressing to ours also ranch style beans along with the ingredients you used. One of my favorite soups during hunting season. Serve with cornbread or tortilla chips or corn chips shredded cheese and sour cream optional.
what we do is put 2" layer of large flake pine bedding then put a thick layer of straw over the top in the lean to sheds. As to the pawing, get a rubber stall mat and put that down under where they each stand, will prevent them from digging huge holes in the ground. They are easy to clean too, just spray them down (you want the stall mats that are solid, not the ones with drainage holes).
I think you should put blankets on your horses. The dampness from the ground, if you see them laying down could cause them to get congested. I know you are doing your best this is just a suggestion.
Another great vid. I'll have to try the taco soup! Just a little hint though Dutch, use plastic utensils on that nonstick cookware or it will get scratched up. It will also introduce more unwanted chemicals in your diet.
If the bale's fall over for the pigs you could use the short 3' green fence stakes a slide just inside the twine and pound into the ground. It won't tip over and if you want to use a bale pop the twine. Just an idea.
Dutch I just love your heating system ! We have too use lots more wood for our home. Everyone one is good and hungry in the barn yard today its so wicked cold . They eat too heat . Lol
don't use hay as bedding for horses. get bailed sawdust or go to local saw mill and shovel it up into the truck and spread it in the barn. cold nights up here in Maine we make a warm mash with oats and a bit of molasses the 2 horses we have love it and it warms the belly. do you stall them for the night or are they free ranging the paddock?
The way you set up Percy and Pearl’s bedroom looked so cozy! Pearl really likes those snack treats😲! Eddie and Chief liked their breakfast mash. I think their hay feeder is a hit👍🏻! Hadley’s and your Taco soup looked awesome 😊! Thanks for sharing, take care ☺️💕!
You and Brandi did a video making taco soup when you were still in the house. You added a package of Ranch dressing mix in the old video. I also substituted a can of chili without beans for the beans you used and cut the taco seasoning in half. It was delish....very tasty and less taco seasoning means no heartburn for me! Win-Win! Thanks!
Great job Ms Hedie. Sorry if I spelled your name wrong. The look on your face Mr. Dutch when Perci bit you. I guess she thought you were food, lol ! Have a awesome weekend. God's speed.
Love all u done the only thing with cold and dogs and cat is there paws ! I found here north of Toronto can get pretty cold we have had -4o days so cold 🥶 be safe love what u doing for all fur babies stay warm ! We already in the - and a lot snow ;(
I have a feeling this winter is going to be colder than normal. Our temps here in east Idaho have been way below the normal for this time of year. I am glad you were able to break in the masonry heater. It is a blessing to be able to keep your family warm. 💖💖💖
Yeah I agree I think this winter is going to be extremely cold. We're here in Texas and it says that it's like 41° but it feels like it's like 31 if not 29° it Just that freezing bitter cold that seeps to your bones. It's quite unusual it's something we typically don't experience in this area at all. February's God we are ready as ready as we can possibly be. Love Pearl and Percy can't wait till they have little piglets!
Good Morning 🌞 Brandy and Dutch Huggss your doing a great job 👍 All these months I have been watching your videos your both building a great future for your beautiful girls proud of you both God bless you
The reason Eddie paws when he eats is because he is content. Just like a baby kitten that kneeds while it's nursing, baby horses paw like that, and after all he is still a baby until he is about two or three.
Ooo don't scold pearl she didn't perposely do it,,,,she loved you yet she is so clever,,,,you ask her to go around she goes around,,,,you ask her to sit she sit,,,,💓💓💓💓
Here's an idea if you got clear vinyl like they use at the entrances of walk in coolers and let them hang down it will stop the majority of the cold air coming in and the hot air going out. And the pigs can walk right thru it to get to the back
Straw is for BEDDING, Hay is for FEEDING. Straw dries faster than hay. Straw still needs to be maintained and monitored for dryness and cleanliness just like hay.
Hi I'm from California you are such a good person you have such a beautiful family God give you strength everyday spiritual health Financial Peace you are such a inspiration. over here in California I live in a city called La Mirada and everybody is panicking buying a bunch of groceries I leave it in God's hands we have plenty of stuff that God but people are getting crazy over here especially at Costco❤❤❤
Dutch look I think this is interesting for you .Roughage is the basis for the feeding of every equine - regardless of whether it is a horse or a pony. Your pony needs the technical fibers for numerous important functions as well as for a healthy, functioning body flora. Normally a pony needs about 1.5 kg of hay per 100 kg calves of ideal body weight. For a pony weighing 300 kg, this corresponds to approx. 4.5 kg of hay per day. In addition, it is very important for your pony's gastrointestinal health not to take premature breaks from eating. This is transmitted to the stomach acid, which is constantly being produced. If this is not "buffered" by roughage, it can attack the stomach wall. Serious diseases such as stomach ulcers can be the result.Recreational ponies generally have a low feed requirement. However, this does not mean that their need for vitamins and minerals is also low. In addition to roughage, always feed a high-quality mineral feed to maintain health if you feed little or no concentrate. In general: If you feed your pony less than 0.75 kg of mineralized concentrate per day, the addition of mineral feed is necessary to cover its need for vitamins and minerals.
LOL ......To listen to pigs, they are always Starving. Try a bigger feed trough for Eddie away from the fence, he is still skittish and may feel boxed in (too close for comfort) is why he Paws at the ground while eating.
Your horses will need as much hay as they can eat during the colder nights. They eat to make body heat so feeding them as much as you can give them will help them a lot. Also, if you have access to beet pulp in bags at your local farm store, you can take that and put some in a buck and add warm water to it and soak it.

Straw would be better for bedding if you can find it. Should be cost effective too.
If you put straw (not hay) on the ground of the horse shelter it will make it easier to scoop manure & pee with a hay fork. Also will make a warmer place to lay if they decide to & will prevent hoof problems by keeping them from standing in their waste when you clean it once or twice a day.

Kevin talked about that earlier straw for bedding , hay for eating! The pigs are funny 😁 Great job Hadley! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Put a 2x4 around the bottom of the stall and use pine shavings for the horses. They will not eat it and it's easier to clean the manure out.
I can't believe the pigs listened to you..( going around the water ) That is so cool.
Please consider putting stall mats or straw down for the ponies, it will help keep them comfortable. Also a nice warm mash at night will help them fight the cold and yes very sloppy is good.

I think you could finish the pony’s shed also for warmth. Straw would keep them dryer in their shed, put up two hay bags in the shed! Food looked good

If you store your canned items upside down, it will form an air pocket and when you pour it out, nothing will be left stuck in the bottom.

Maybe more convenient to move the animal shelters closer to fence, gate, where you feed in cold weather.

Dinner looked great you guy's! Animals look happy too. Ya pearl does look like she getting rounder for sure! What is it 3 months 3weeks 3days! 🤔❤🤗👍👋
The Mini horses will eat the hay but they won't eat straw if you put it down for bedding
If the chickens lay their eggs in the pig house, the pigs will have breakfast in bed. haha!
Hadley’s cornbread looks amazing! ❤😋
Enjoyed, tell Hayden, like her wrestling match
The corn bread and taco soup look so delicious. I'd love to have some.
You need some con queso cheese added to the soup and top of with some sour cream and maybe some black olives..yumm
I loved the pigs going around the water! They are very smart!
You may want to see if eddys teeth need floated and you can use sawdust to help keep their shelter warm
You and Brandi did a video making taco soup when you were still in the house. You added a package of Ranch dressing mix in the old video. I also substituted a can of chili without beans for the beans you used and cut the taco seasoning in half. It was delish....very tasty and less taco seasoning means no heartburn for me! Win-Win! Thanks!
The food looks great. You are teaching your girls well
Great job Ms Hedie. Sorry if I spelled your name wrong. The look on your face Mr. Dutch when Perci bit you. I guess she thought you were food, lol ! Have a awesome weekend. God's speed.
My experience with horses you can put hay in the shelter they will either eat or lie down but me I would just because it's cold
NICE MUSIC while stokin' the fire 🔥
I love your video it's awesome keep it up making more animal videos i like your animals it's really cool 😍🤗
You are so kind
I think Eddie paws the ground to say thank you for breakfast!!!🤣
Hadley you did a great job cooking dinner for your family! ❤️😊❤️😊❤️😊
Put straw in the horses pen. They need bedding too.
All those leaves would make great bedding/insulation for the ground of the animal shelters. Wood chips/sawdust is good too.
Love all u done the only thing with cold and dogs and cat is there paws ! I found here north of Toronto can get pretty cold we have had -4o days so cold 🥶 be safe love what u doing for all fur babies stay warm ! We already in the - and a lot snow ;(
Straw the horse normally won’t eat as long as they get lots of hay to eat
I have a feeling this winter is going to be colder than normal. Our temps here in east Idaho have been way below the normal for this time of year. I am glad you were able to break in the masonry heater. It is a blessing to be able to keep your family warm. 💖💖💖

The cornbread looks fantastic!
No hay in the horses stall, but they do need straw to lay down in
You guys got snow looks so like ❤️ Christmas 🎄
You might try wood shavings for the horses
HADLEY, IT WAS GOOD TO SEE YOU🙏🤗🙏🤗🙏
Good Morning 🌞 Brandy and Dutch Huggss your doing a great job 👍 All these months I have been watching your videos your both building a great future for your beautiful girls proud of you both God bless you
Great video. Love seeing Hadley making soup, she likes to do everything. Great girl.
Wow your pigs are so well fed they are Huge
The reason Eddie paws when he eats is because he is content. Just like a baby kitten that kneeds while it's nursing, baby horses paw like that, and after all he is still a baby until he is about two or three.
White chicken chili would be great, too!
A hay rack would be better than a trough
A hay rack would be better than a trough
Scary thing is how wood goes so darn fast
Ooo don't scold pearl she didn't perposely do it,,,,she loved you yet she is so clever,,,,you ask her to go around she goes around,,,,you ask her to sit she sit,,,,💓💓💓💓
That horse is counting how many bites you gave him.
WTG HADLEY❤️Looks like yummy taco soup and cornbread for the win!
The horse will eat hay but they won't eat straw
why do they scrape their foot when they eat
It is so annoying when you beat on the fence with that spoon. I'm wearing headphones and its.VERY LOUD OVER AND OVER. AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER!!
Here's an idea if you got clear vinyl like they use at the entrances of walk in coolers and let them hang down it will stop the majority of the cold air coming in and the hot air going out. And the pigs can walk right thru it to get to the back
🐖Never Drop Your Guard When It Comes To Pig's. 🐖
They Can Chew Anything Up Like An Electric Garbage Disposal. " Ouch❗"😭
Pearl loves her food and treats 💕 😋 💖 😍 love the fireplace 🥰🥰🥰
So, you don't burn your Buns when the Bench is heated?... That is so Amazing for so many reasons ❣️

Normally a pony needs about 1.5 kg of hay per 100 kg calves of ideal body weight. For a pony weighing 300 kg, this corresponds to approx. 4.5 kg of hay per day. In addition, it is very important for your pony's gastrointestinal health not to take premature breaks from eating. This is transmitted to the stomach acid, which is constantly being produced. If this is not "buffered" by roughage, it can attack the stomach wall. Serious diseases such as stomach ulcers can be the result.Recreational ponies generally have a low feed requirement. However, this does not mean that their need for vitamins and minerals is also low. In addition to roughage, always feed a high-quality mineral feed to maintain health if you feed little or no concentrate. In general: If you feed your pony less than 0.75 kg of mineralized concentrate per day, the addition of mineral feed is necessary to cover its need for vitamins and minerals.
LOL ......To listen to pigs, they are always Starving. Try a bigger feed trough for Eddie away from the fence, he is still skittish and may feel boxed in (too close for comfort) is why he Paws at the ground while eating.
