Love the silly wabbits! Also, Hope is so pretty. Love the color of her. I pray the storm coming through doesn't give you all any trouble or extra work. Let's say uneventful. God Bless
I just love how your family loves your animals. So many only consider them food or money and don't really care for them as you do. It really warms my ❤
Hope is so sweet. Our long-haired Maine Coon cat loves to be brushed. When I walk to the laundry room and reach in the bag and show her the brush and comb she meows until I start. 😻
Hello Kevin & Sarah! Thank you for the wonderful video. I know you all are in love with Hope, but you are making all of us fall in love with Hope. She is such a sweet cow. It makes me smile every time I see her. Have a great week!
Thanks so much Kevin and Sarah. We learn so much from you guys. Making these videos while doing all your chores must be so time consuming! But we sure do appreciate you taking the time to teach us all so much!
Poor Hope. I'm glad that spray gives her some relief. I bet those baby bunnies love all that lush grass. I love how green it is. I live in the desert so don't see that bright of a green color. It's so beautiful.
I hope you both know how blessed you are. God has surely smiled on you. The homestead life is a good life and keeping God first is so important. I never had the acers you now have, but I raised 3 fine young men on a small homestead. I was raised the same and it instills a sense of responsibility to and for everything God has placed in your life. God bless.
The Lord they never mention nor obey in this huge venue of followers .Imagine if they spread the gospel at the end of every video? You who preen over them kinda make me ill. Ive tried to spur them unto good works; it has fallen on DEAF EARS. . I shake the dust off. They will give an account for remaining quiet about the salvation to be found in Christ.
I love your program. I am not a farmer, though I was raised on a farm. But you are so kind and thoughtful with your animals. I love animals. thank you for taking such good care of everythings the Lord provides. God Bless you both.
Sara, I am still praying for you. Fear not, but trust that God has this right in line with His plans to bless you. I hope you gain greater energy (as I did) after your surgery. You young folks are an inspiration to us older ones. Yes, we still garden, but cannot do as much as before, and really feel more alive watching you daily. Yes, I have LEARNED a lot from you, too. I am canning, and my grain mill is in the mail! May the Lord give you peace and healing.
Your bunnies are just adorable. I love the natural fly spray you make. It is very similar to one I make for my garden plants. Keep those videos coming! Love you all and God Bless.
I really appreciate the way you treat your livestock. As a fellow meat-eater, I believe we owe it to animals to give them the best life possible and to harvest them in a quick, humane manner. When I lived on a large farm, we had dogs, cats, beef cattle, a milk cow, pigs, goats, chickens, ducks, turkeys, rabbits, and horses. We live in town now, and I sure do miss having all those critters!
I have fallen in love with your channel!. Watching before work puts me behind but I do it anyway ☺ We are looking forward to when we'll have our own little piece of heaven(land). When we do, well use all the things we learned here. So thank you
Its so great to see you dont starve Hope to up her milk production. She's pregnant, in milk and she looks fabulous and not emaciated! With heaps of other channels insisting you cant cover a milk cows ribs I didnt want to get one. But seeing Hope has reignited my desire for a dairy animal!
I dont live on a farm, never lived on a farm. But when we visited our cousins who DID live on a farm we had huge round eyes for the excitement of it lol. I know its an extreme amount of work but its so obvious that you both love it and I love seeing you love it. As always, thanks for sharing. --Shirley
The storm just brushed by us (we're just east of Memphis) and we got 2.5" of rain dumped on us. Praying for no damage for you all and Sarah, you're in my thoughts and prayers for your upcoming surgery.
Rain was a nice rain here in SE Missouri, good amount of wind though. Tree swallow houses for your fly population. Easy house to build, 10 minutes cutting and assembling at most. The pair can eat on average about 8,000 flies per day. They parent 2 sets of offspring per year and migrate to south America for winter. Houses no closer than 100ft, you can canvas your property pretty quickly with the easy house design. I suspect they will help your garden pests aswell similar to a P Martin.
You are a remarkable couple. Terrific videos. Wonderful personalities. I'm pleased being a long time subscriber who is never disappointed seeing you both. Thank you for making the effort to record, edit and share your adventures. Blessings to you both.
I love your new farm! Picture post card Beautiful! If you add a small strip of heavy gauge hardware cloth over the wire in place along the end wall of your rabbit tractor, you will still have air flow, but no critters can reach through to grab your bunnies... then you can still add a strip of roofing tin later for weather protection..
Sarah brushing and spraying Hope was just so funny to watch. You sure have gotten beyond your fear, Sarah. Yup, Hope is a funny, charming and BIG (with) baby cow.
Big Fly Traps are really helpful. You can find them at your feed store or Tractor Supply. Put them out around areas near where Hope hangs out and will not offend your nose. (Smells like dead fish) It really works and will cut down on the flies in addition to your spray. Our horses do not appreciate fly spray at first until they figure out the flies are not biting them, then they stand still and you can tell they are relieved to not have flies biting them.
New Farm is looking great & the rabbits are just beautiful ( wish we could have some but not in Queensland Australia)- Sarah you have become so confident with Hope & that is so good to see. Cheers Denise- Australia
Love seeing the rabbit. I am going to talk to my son about your channel he knows a lots of people. Your new farm is great. I will keep you in my prayers Sarah.
The rabbits are beautiful. I think I remember that you raise them for meat rabbits but do they make for nice pets? "Hope look away, do pay attention to the lady with the spray bottle". I have not been having a good day watched your vlog today and laughed with that statement. Thank you. It is wonderful to see the animals very calming and you show them love.
Hope looks beautiful! You can tell she's got good pasture! Love your rabbitry set up, I come to you for organized wishes, as we figure out how to convert to a homestead! Also... great tan!😄👍❤
Watching the storms headed your way. Praying it will pass quickly and spare your beautiful gardens and sweet animals. It's hurricane season here in Florida. Hoping all the bad storms stay out at sea.
I worry for Florida. Your state seems much more vulnerable the way it's positioned. I'm in Houston/Galveston area so we get our fair share. We live about 80 miles from the coast so deal with more flooding than actual wind damage. I will be praying for any state in its path though.
You can also make fly traps with 3 to 4 in of Apple cider vinegar 1/2 c water Few drops dish soap Stir Put plastic wrap on jar top with rubber bands Hang jar where she likes to stand. We always had a run in shelter to let the cows or horses get out of the sun, hard rain and flies. I put a little hamburger in the bottom of the jar and it’s a fly feast....
Hi I love your set up for your rabbits. It occurred to me that I had seen one like this before and I remembered an old magazine I used to get called mother Earth news. And one of the volumes told about people raising rabbits in wire cages and underneath that they would raise earthworms that would live in shredded paper. The droppings from the rabbits would fall down into the worms and feed them. Then the people that own the setup and yes they were a self-sufficient homestead, they would take the worms and sell them for fishing bait or gardens and then they would process their rabbits at some point.. anyway I saw the space underneath your rabbits and I thought huh...
That is how I raised rabbits when I was a teenager. My mom was an RN and would post an add at work for rabbit meat, Bagged manure and worms. Sold out first day every time.
I just shared your channel with Jamerrill from Large Family Table who has just recently moved and is gardening and getting lots of animals. I am certain your channel will be a great resource for her and her followers. Stay well! 😘
Just one of the reasons to love your channel: How kind and protective you are of your animals. (I have stopped watching some UA-cam channels because of how they or the children treated critters.) Thank you for sharing the fly spray -- I will have to check what animals it is safe to use on. Some animals are sensitive to Tea Tree oil. Hope sure has personality, such a blessing! God Bless.
Being a horse person you can always spray the brush to get the fly spray on specially for her face. But make sure you do NOT put any ontop of her head where if theres a light rain or she sweats it can run down into her eyes! I was so happy to hear your surgery went well. Love your show. You have inspired me ;) I will pray for a quick recovery.
I love the rabbit videos! I have been breeding my colony for 3 years now and I can credit alot of what I know to you guys. Thank you for your informative videos! Y'all are a true blessing!
Prayers for Sarah as she has surgery today. I went through a complete one in 1979 when I was 23 years old. They didn’t know then what they know now. I had to learn about everything on my own about what comes after the surgery. If you have any questions, please reach out to me. God bless you both.
You can also use a blender to emulsify your oils and it stays mixed up. We use a blender that has a glass container on it when we mix our mixture up for the honeybees. We will have to try this recipe on our cattle. Thanks for the recipe!
Not sure about cows but when we had horses, our farrier told me to put about a cup of vinegar in the horse trough to help with the biting flies. Told me it changes the PH of their blood just enough to keep biting insects off. Wasn't 100% but helped cut down on the bites for sure. The horses were alot happier as well :)
My dad says if there is a mosquito within 50 miles, it will find me. Turns out I have O-type blood which is what mosquitos prefer. Trying the vinegar is worth a shot.
Growing up my mom taught me to use old socks on the horses. You can spray the socks with fly spray then massage it into their ears and wherever else :)
Love the silly wabbits! Also, Hope is so pretty. Love the color of her. I pray the storm coming through doesn't give you all any trouble or extra work. Let's say uneventful. God Bless
Animals are so funny with so much personality and they bring so much to our lives. ❤️
once again I just love seeing how you give all of your animals the very best life you can provide. Good job you guys!
You could see that the spray worked. She was not swishing her tail, or throwing slobber all over. Sweet. Happy happy cow.
Love watching the beauty of what you all do! So appreciate these videos! Prayers and love!
Oh my goodness Hope is funny but more funny is how Sarah knows Hope personality it’s so cute I love it!
I just love how your family loves your animals. So many only consider them food or money and don't really care for them as you do. It really warms my ❤

Hope is like “I’m on to you! ... but don’t stop that brushing!”
Poor Hope. I'm glad that spray gives her some relief. I bet those baby bunnies love all that lush grass. I love how green it is. I live in the desert so don't see that bright of a green color. It's so beautiful.
I totally cracked up at Sarah's brushing & spraying "technique". Too funny 😉
Thank you for the chuckle this morning, Sarah!!! You guys rock!
I hope you both know how blessed you are. God has surely smiled on you. The homestead life is a good life and keeping God first is so important.
I never had the acers you now have, but I raised 3 fine young men on a small homestead. I was raised the same and it instills a sense of responsibility to and for everything God has placed in your life.
God bless.
You 2 are so good with and to your animal's. Always enjoy watching. Stay safe and healthy. God bless
Your farm is gorgeous! The good Lord was listening to your prayers.
Yes the lord was
When will Hope have her calf
Yes and people can experience it in a farm collective.
The Lord they never mention nor obey in this huge venue of followers .Imagine if they spread the gospel at the end of every video? You who preen over them kinda make me ill.

You guys really are living The Good Life!
I can’t wait till Hope have her baby.! You have a beautiful farm.
Love the homestead community connections and your reference to Art and Brie. People of like mind, sharing information so great. God bless.
Sara, I am still praying for you. Fear not, but trust that God has this right in line with His plans to bless you. I hope you gain greater energy (as I did) after your surgery.

I love Hope! A spoiled cow is the best! Your rabbits are gorgeous!
Sarah,I hope you are doing well following your surgery,we have missed you! Take care of yourself!
I enjoyed this one a lot. Hope is looking soooooo much better than when she arrived. Good on you guys!

Hope is so pretty! So glad you guys have the new property.
Hope in the Emerald City.... " pay no attention to the woman behind the brush ..." lol That gave me a great laugh... TY Sarah.
Bunnies look so cute in the green grass 🐰🐰🐰
Sarah, the difference between when you first got Hope and now is phenomenal!! You look so much more comfortable with her! Great job! Be safe and well!
You guys are the best farm parents!
Rain was a nice rain here in SE Missouri, good amount of wind though.
Tree swallow houses for your fly population. Easy house to build, 10 minutes cutting and assembling at most. The pair can eat on average about 8,000 flies per day. They parent 2 sets of offspring per year and migrate to south America for winter.

I agree. Gregg Judy says a pair of tree swallows can eat up to 8000 flies a day.
Bat houses too
Yes...when i lived in NW Ark, people had many of these bird houses...very few mosquitos.
We call them barn swallows. My favorite bird. They follow me around on the mower swooping down grabbing bugs escaping the mower.
Beautiful just beautiful ❤️🙏🏻❤️ from NYC 🕊
Thank you for sharin', blessings! :)
Lol @ Sarah's face while tricking Hope.
Awww Hope, you are so pretty🇺🇸🙋♀️🦋💜

You both are so cute. I love your videos. Thank you.
Your new place is so scenic and wonderful. I hope I can have a farm that looks like this someday.
Gave me a chuckle, your song about life as you are sharing your meat rabbits.
I love your new farm! Picture post card Beautiful!

Ha Ha Ha... Schrute Farm Beets.. Thanks for the laugh. And all your knowledge
You guys are such an inspiration. I just added Holland Lop Rabbits to my homestead.
OMG your green shirt is AWESOME!
Going to save this flyspray recipe. Thank you so much
Love the homestead lesson. Thank you!
Is Hope able to get inside the barn? She sure loves the brushing! Have a Wonderful & Blessed Day!
You won me over. I love your videos. Thanks
Love Art and Bri. They, like your channel I look forward to watching.
I remember my dad putting the fly spray in a bucket and applying it with a sponge. Maybe Hope doesn’t like the spray bottle.
Could be.
Sray it on the brush ,JS.
Praying for you all.
I so enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing!

So tricky with the spray. Thanks for the video.
With horses that did not like being sprayed we would actually spray the brush and brush it on :). Hope looks great!!
I just shared your channel with Jamerrill from Large Family Table who has just recently moved and is gardening and getting lots of animals. I am certain your channel will be a great resource for her and her followers.
Stay well! 😘
Yes, i hope she watches this channel. Have left comments pointing her here. They always have excellent thorough lessons. No fluff.

I wonder if that would work for people. Different ration of course. Mosquitoes love me as well as flies. Any thoughts?
WifiGranny L. Give it a try, mosquitos love me to so I’m going to try it.
My dad says if there is a mosquito within 50 miles, it will find me. Turns out I have O-type blood which is what mosquitos prefer. Trying the vinegar is worth a shot.
@@hollyhock3945 Might even try spraying vinegar on you when you go outside, smell might deter them from every trying to bite.
@@wifigrannyl.1354 try drinking limeade and avoid grapes and bananas. It works for us.
Growing up my mom taught me to use old socks on the horses. You can spray the socks with fly spray then massage it into their ears and wherever else :)
