I my wife loves watching with me sometimes. We have the opportunity to run a 30 acre farm I grew up on. Your channel is very helpful in finding a direction with our new venture.

    Another masterpiece you two! About goats... I hope someday you'll see what my Granddad told me. He bought the 132 acres I grew up on in 1950. Logged it, built the barn that still stands there, fenced it and turned in pigs and goats to clear it. Pre-coyotes of course. He told me one day solemnly," Kirk, there's only one way to keep a goat from jumping the fence. You put him up a board so he can walk over!😂😂😂

      You can say that again and again and..........
      I once saw a goat standing on the top of a fence post. There was nothing attached to the post yet and it was 5 feet tall. It had to jump at least 5 feet and land on the top of a 6 inch diameter post. I told my brother that the only way he was going to keep his goats in his new fence was to make them think that he was trying to keep them out.

    A friend raised goats. Her heard of about 30 would thin itself by 1/3 over 2 years. She became accustomed to escorting a diseased goat way out into the woods. She would hold a 22 up against the head while holding the head with the left hand. She became so accustomed to this procedure that one day her left hand was a little too close and fortunately only got powder burns. She became more cautious. Within a couple years she got out of the goat business because accounting was quite lucrative enough.

      We had goats when I was growing up and my full time job was trying to not kill them. They would get out of their fence and would eat everything but what you wanted them to eat. I had an engine that I was going to rebuild and my brother's goats got to it and ate the tarp off it, then they ate the wires and hoses off it. By the time I found out about it, water had gotten into it and ruined the engine when it froze. They would also get out and jump on my car. The only way I like a goats is cooked and ready to eat!!!!

    Love this channel. Pete has said so many times about product costs and demand for his produce, he was going to expand his pig operation with a view to upping quality and easing workload and his subsequent change of direction is fully explained and understandable. He has also said many times that Chickens and eggs are the bread and butter of the farm, he has also said that the chickens are more labour intensive. Has Pete thought about increasing his poultry production with some emphasis on easing that workload. For example having modular grazing pens with simple gates to move the chickens along a run of pens. watching him at the market he seems to regularly sell out quickly on poultry. No criticisms of his operation in any way whatsoever just an observation.

    Hi Pete! Great video. You are correct about goats. My father-in-law raised goats down here in Texas. You need at least a 6 wire fence to hold them. His was a 7 wire. Goats like to climb and will get into any small area and sometimes get stuck. We were constantly checking on them. He would butcher several a year. The meat was excellent but the up keep was a daily chore. Cattle are a lot less work and a much higher yield in meat for the time needed to care for them. Thank you for your fantastic videos. I envy your tractor collection, it is awesome!

    Another great video Pete and Hillary. and this time even Gray got into the act! great! glad to see you getting things done on the pole barn you wanted to do. I think the base you got planned will work out fine. its amazing what that cloth will provide in many ways. Ok on the turkeys. tis that time of the season isn't it. And those steaks look great. An a common mistake a lot of viewers probably make in Searing meat. is that it is to "Seal" the meat juices in" on the contrary. the whole purpose of the searing is to produce the Maillard Effect. rearranging the amino acids. and sugars to produce a fantastic flavor unto its own. Like you Pete I season the meat and then gor tor the sear early then slow cook it to my liking / heat. Even a roast done in the oven or crock pot should be seared before going into the Pool! so to speak makes a world of difference. the only problem is I LOVE STEAKS!!! and every time to cook one on camera I sit here and drool like a big dog!! ha ha I can taste that steak all the way over here in Hancock MA. Thanks for another great video as always you made this old mans' day! thanks for sharing. God speed. ECF

    La verdad no entiendo inglés pero disfruto igualmente de esta página ya que me deleito mirando y logro comprender muchas cosas, además leo los títulos y algo comprendo y los que no, uso el traductor, me parece hermoso lo que hace Pete y su esposa, felicidades y gracias por mostrar su maravilloso trabajo.

    My grandfather use to have me gather dandelion leaves and he would chop them up and add hard boiled eggs and black pepper to feed the newly arrived poults. He was old school born in 1899. I don’t know why it worked but I used it on some newly hatched peafowl while working at a summer camp zoo and they survived. The director said in the past they always died.
