    I had a homestead for 11 years in Canada.
    Electric fences are great. Cheap ,easy to move around and fence off areas with just plastic insulators and nails.
    Pigs are good. Goats are trouble. Rabbits are ok for meat. Cattle require lots of land and need more than one.
    Chicken and rabbit is probably the best
    Tip to train animals to electric fences is to tie some plastic tape or bits of visible strips to the wires so they can see the boundary. Otherwise might charge through it without getting a shock. Best if they sniff the wires and get shocks

    Hello, The Guinea hens are good because they are hearty and will roost in trees. They lay eggs that are the size of small chicken eggs and they are very good for eating insects. They are also good as watch birds. Like geese they make a lot of noise when people and other animals come into their yard.

    Nice update on your farm. I also like guineas. They are easy to care for. Taste good. Are not aggressive and eat a lot of bugs. The ones I have get along well with the chickens. I like goats but they are mischievous. I like the milk and the meat is good. Best of luck on choosing animals to add to your farm.

    • @TheSaneHatter
      @TheSaneHatter 10 місяців тому

      I read, a LONG time ago, about how effective guineas are at pest control: they not only eat insects voraciously, but they do a pretty good number on snakes, too. That much, I learned from an article in "Mother Earth news" maybe a generation ago, but in the years since, I've seen them kept in a back yard right here in Austin, so there's some evidence for the "easy care" comment, as well.

I hope that you will be able to harvest your vegetables… and that you are continuing to grow well and healthy and that your children are all doing well also.

    You only need one emu egg to feed a family. The meat is like steak (red meat) and is fat free.
    Roos are a little more gamey tasting and have the strongest leather.
    Crocs eat one chicken a week and their meat tastes like chicken but is the texture of fish. The leather is quite valuable. Ps, nobody is going to break in. Hehe

    Hmm, no one has suggested a fish farm, so many videos on UA-cam, the simplest one I saw , a man bought a couple hundred tiny catfish and used a 50 gallon garbage, plastic can 28:11 the first food was a small tree branch with leaves on, he butchered the fish when they were a pound or something,, but yes, research, there are others where vegetables and fish grow together and only require something like 6 foot wide and 20 feet long, this is what I would do, in fact, right now I lust for some delicious fried fish, as always; love the life

    Nice small farm you have there Vanessa! I have a few thoughts of what you might grow there. A friend raises quail and sells the eggs for $5 a dozen. They are less messy than chickens and eat less. Also very tame and can be handled. Mushrooms might be fun and I have heard that growing lavender is very profitable. Have a great week, looking forward to the next video!

    Vanessa, I've always enjoyed the videos where you do a lot of talking and telling stories. I could just listen to you telling stories for hours at a time, like around a campfire. I'm curious about German law regarding fish ponds? If you have a farm, is it possible for you to have a pond that allows you to raise your own fish? It would seem to me that you could build a structure over most of the pond so it's not wasted space, and the structure would protect the fish from predator birds. Anyway, that's my one idea when it comes to farming.
    I also love what you said about having some extra money. I have been working very hard to save as much as I can because I want to be self-sufficient and not owe anyone any money so I don't use credit cards or loans. I have only saved up $5000, but every dollar helps I think, and you're absolutely right. I sleep better knowing I have some money saved.
    I look forward to seeing how the farm changes with your renovations! Keep up the great work and keep smiling!

    I wish you luck on your new endeavors in your farm. I don't know if solar panels and batteries or a wind mill are something you have or are an option for you,;but considering the state of affairs with Russia and Ukraine, having alternate power for heating and cooling [refrigerator/freezer] and a wood stove with plenty of seasoned firewood is a very good idea, along with your garden and the animals you keep. May the good Lord keep you and your family safe, and thank you for your videos , keep up the good work.

    A homestead is constantly evolving, you will have different experiences with different animals, some animals you will love as pets, NEVER name anything you plan to eat. Rabbits, quail, chickens are good for meat sustainably. Remember, Larger animals require more feed, it gets expensive…I know 😩. On my place, my best investment was a smaller tractor with bucket loader and rototiller for garden. I wish I could get a backhoe attachment but it is so expensive. My life experience has taught me that the number one thing to focus on is my relationship with my God, this brings and gives peace within and effects all of my relationships. It allows me to concentrate on my goals for self sufficiency and survivability, which are food, water, shelter, clothing, medicine and sadly for the world in which we live, self defense. Blessings to you and yours Venessa, our problems are learning experiences, they strengthen you. You are strong and you will continue on. Yesterday’s problems are gone, put them behind you, continue to focus on your goals for your future. Much ❤, which is desiring and giving the best for someone else without expecting anything in return. Keep going girl !

      @@WildWomanBushcraft we all need encouragement, we seek independence and freedom to live peacefully while the world seeks to confine us. This is why we separate ourselves from the rat race, country life is for me.

    I wish that I had a fraction of the experince with farm animals necesary to give credible advice! But i do know a little bit about dogs, and it sounds a little like Aika is trying to "herd" the animals (which is kind of her job), and if so, that they're not used to it. I'm not sure how you train a German Shepherd to do that, but I do know that "Herding Dog" certifications exist, so there must be a way.

    Vanessa, i understand your love for the rabbits, but chickens and rabbits are the best sources of meat for a small self sufficient farm. Bee hives might be a good thing if you like honey.

    Make sure you raise the Guineas from chicks so they know where home is. If you buy adults they will line up side-by-side, march across your yard eating all the bugs and disappear over the horizon.

    I know you have the small house in the woods but did you think about the idea of introducing rabbits into the area for personal consumption and to control them so they dont spread too far its just a thought but i introduced rabbits into a woodland only 2 acres but 3 years in i found i was comtpeting with foxes for them but i still take 1 or two large rabbits a month there great for stews for the family...

    Hi Vanessa! Nice plase you have there, are you growing fruit trees? I grow a lot of apple trees here in Norway and some of the old brands are werry good for storing in a cold basement some of them I picked in oktober and store them until may the nekst year. I also have plumme trees and cherrys for liqueur. I also have a few RIR Chikken (road Island Red) werry good meat and good eggs. I did have some rapids but they did not grow so good only on gras and Kitchen garden waste, so I dont have them any more.

    I have always considered sheep far superior to goats for a farm animal. First sheep are far more passive than goats and give less trouble. Goats just don't like boundaries. Second Goats will eat the entire plant in any field you put them in,, right down to (and including) the roots. They turn fertile ground into a desert in a confined range. Sheep by comparison eat only the green shoots and the grass or field greens of their fields can regrow. In terms of ecological balance sheep are superior. Third, Sheep (with vary few exceptions) give more wool and better wool per animal than goats do.I realize there are a handful of goats (the Cashmere, Angora, and Pashmina varieties spring to mind) which also produce excellent wool's, but these are exceptions and even there I would question the amounts on a per head basis. And finally if you have to cook and eat them, goat meat is tougher, gamier, and (in my own opinion) less flavorful in comparison to lamb. Thus from any practical angle goats are just too much trouble for too little return. Goats do have one useful utility though, and it's one our local forests here in the states utilize. There habit of eating everything vegetable that lies in their grazing range makes them great for clearing undergrowth. Many of the parks and national forests here use herds of goats from farmers that rent them out for this purpose to clear excess undergrowth to prevent fire hazards. They will stake a temporary boundary for them around an area, let them clear it down, then move them to the next area to be cleared. I would also concede that Goats are also useful if the land is too rocky or sloped for other pastoral animals (such as sheep or cows) Goats however are not the worst choice. That choice lies with pigs. Whatever you do, do NOT get pigs. Even the miniature versions turn bad tempered. I have friends that run a pig farm, they are noisy, smelly animals that can turn nasty in an instant. They are all big boys that work that farm, Very big, and very strong and every one of them says you can never turn your back on them.
    Hmm, thinking about it Goats also have one other virtue, goats milk. I can't say I've ever heard of anyone milking sheep or making sheep cheese here, but I do know of at least one local farm that produces goat cheese. So being fair I have to give goats that advantage over sheep as well.

    Strange your asking us as all you have to do is look at all your bills, vets, feeding, upkeep of buildings etc.etc. plus money in for food out. Your where I was years ago and I got rid of the lot and got my life back, and now rent my land to someone else, which more than pays for my food without any hassle at all. I don't even plant anymore, as that is loads of work and 3 years of bad crops to rip up and burn. Took a long time to get over all the work and money involved always going out, but no more animals for me, as said I got my real life back.
