I’m glad you showed this perspective because it’s not as easy as the sped up, edited version. People who want to homestead need to see the real deal.
Happy Henry’s little voice is such a delight for a mother whose children are all starting to grow up. I can’t imagine farming or homesteading with littles. You and your family are always inspiring!
So peaceful! I love hearing Henry's babbling and cooing!
Cinematic footage is beautiful and takes a lot of effort to create. It can make for a great 3rd party educational tool.
POV footage is easy to produce, but is very appreciative, however the smaller audience, because it shows the first hand education.
I am very thankful for the more “raw” daily footage of your chores. For me, it gives a better expectation, educationally, vs the beautiful films you create.
Thank you for following the idea to have a change up.
My favorite videos are just watching and listening to the farm.
Those cows didn't even move when you opened the fence. Just chewing their cud, happy and fat.
This was a peaceful video, I liked it. Nice and slow
Thanks for that. It was perfect. I’d watch that from start of chores to finish.
THIS is farm life. Cows put feet in milk, cows get out where they shouldn't be, you get where you are going and don't have something you need, water hoses leak, water runs out and chickens get killed and the list goes on and on. We love our way of life, but it isn't for everyone and certainly not for those thinking it is a fairytale life.
I missed hearing from you on the video Uncle Justin.
I also miss not so many videos from you all.
Didn't realize how much I watched you till your not there 😜
Blessings love you all!
I agree, thought something was wrong with him how he wasn't communicating with us!
That was absolutely wonderful, no music no talking overly just natural sound I loved every minute of it thank you
Thank you for this. A little piece of reality. You are good at talking and entertaining and yet this is a peaceful look at the labor of your life.
A walk in your moccasins was fresh, imo
Very peaceful morning
Thank you Justin cleaning the cow so perfectly. I really am so aware how deeply you care for your family doing that. I grew up in South Africa on a farm. Dairy farm. Have wonderful memories of that. God Bless you.
Thanks for allowing this video to represent farming in some of its truer form's of the process. Editing has a tendency to make it all appear so unchallenging. So thank you in this one you've kept it pretty much 💯. I'm seeing how some other channels are going through a process of trying to create appealing content. Yet with the potential of many great rewards that can be achieved for any family through homestead or farming which ever is appropriate. The reality is that it is often very demanding of a individual and of the family group. But thanks for all of the Homestead Community UA-cam channels that tend to make this life style look so easy through the process of editing.
The la la la at the end perfect! And how did you not swear after the foot in the bucket?? 🤣
Y’all seen Art and Bri lately ?
Missing them
Kinda of odd , that none of their friends/ fellow UA-camrs that you use to see they around even mention them . I guess they are behind the scenes off camera. Privacy. Don’t know.
yeah I miss them too 😃
They've been on my mind as well. I didn't see them at the last get together the Rhodes had for the last 'Divergence'. Art and Bri are usually there...😢🙏🙏🙏
I have been missing them too.
I love videos like this.
I have been handing milking my jersey because I sold my steers. She is still making 3.5 gallons a day one milking and she freshened 13 months ago. Getting ready to dry her up. I just made butter 🧈
Those cows know the drill: they’re better than employees!
'Studd Muffin' really is a beautiful and pretty peaceful Bull. I'll bet his genetics would sell for a pretty penny.
They used to talk alot about culling him. Maybe he's not A2 A2? But it's probably really hard to find a replacement right now especially with the cost of replacing the girls soon...
Thanks for the video Justin.
This mode of filming shows how much work homesteading is, and that's good to show your viewers.
Loved this video, it's so interesting to see a morning in your life working with the animals
Blessings to all!
Hey Gang, Great Posting, hope you feel better soon??????, don't worry, Henry's coverage of the play by play saved the show,
God's Good Blessings to you and your beautiful family keep up the great work love U guys XOXOXO stay safe and healthy
It's so hot in Southeast Alabama the cows are laying down in any shade they can find.
@Sharon Norris even our pigs don't get up and move much in this heat in south Alabama
Every time the sheep Baaa I can't help but think Minecraft!! They crack me up 😅
Justin, that really made me realise how hard work running a farm is. You brought home to me that it is not a romantic thing, just chilling and milking a cow. You have the patience of a saint when she put her foot in the bucket.
That's why I never turn loose of the bucket! Just use one hand to milk. Takes a little longer but she won't get her foot in it!
milk her on a platform.
There are other ways to milk that mean that they can't put their feet in the bucket but obviously Justin isn't too bothered, knowing he has loads and he can just give the milk to the pigs
I have never gotten down there and personal with a cow udder before.
Cool video. First person farming.
Thank you for everything you do.
You should hire a small young family to help with these chores (like you did with Arun). The boys and Lily should not be your only helpmates.
lovely.
If you could revisit the price of raising your poultry with the increase feed prices? Are you still saving money? Or is the cost of farming a deficit? You are fortunate to have Green Gold with pastures, but we've seen so many local farmers stop selling their abundance and downsizing their flocks due to the cost of feed exceeding the benefits of poultry.
Did I miss something? A new baby.how cute but that mamma was frustrating today. God Bless you Justin!
What was that. R u sick or angry?
I LOVED this kind of video! Please put out more of these "silent" and real time jobs that you do on the farm! It's very important and informative! Because a life as a homesteader, it involves a lot of repetition routine and hard work that we don't really know what it's like unless we follow along with the (lovely) farmer.
Your family rocks. Thank you for all your work and beautiful creations!
Love from Luxembourg, the only Grand-Duchy in Europe (kids that's a toppic you can search and learn about during your homeschooling 🏰🏰🚵🐄🐄)
It's amazing how most of time you make it look all so easy and when we see something as real as this video it is shocking to see how hard it is, bless you Justin and your family, All the best from us here in the mountains of Portugal
When we were milking we used sanitized towels to wash teats. If they were real dirty we used a hose then sanitized towel. Also after milking use teat dip to protect from germs. If a cow had any cuts we used bag balm. It is medicated and can be used on humans. Great for dry skin and used to help swelling in bag when cow has a calf. Comes in a green can with clover 🍀 on can.
Nice experiment.. but I miss the family and the goings on.
I loved the long unedited portions along with the POV. Together they convey how well trained the animals are and how speedy the process is. Most of it completed before you could have walked them down the hill to milk the old way. A well oiled machine.
My cow is always at the barn waiting to b milked. Still think milking in the barn is easier & faster. Especially when the weather is bad👍
Greetings from Northeast Ohio. I love the natural sounds of the farm animals, no music. That is a rough job
Hope you are ok, Justin. So sorry about all that milk going to waste.
Different concept with little talking. Farming in real time. 👍
Ah, it looks so lovely there. Nice, healthy Earth and animals. Don’t give up folks. I have been working to restore wetlands and native habitats in an Urban Environment. Turtles laying eggs and big fat toads, with baby woody woodpeckers in the dead Cottonwood give aspiration.The green necklace may save us all.
Awesome
Henry’s surprised face when the cow takes a wee. So funny looking at you, saying do you see what she’s doing.?
This was amazing. Do this every morning and then end with a Justin
Point of the day lol
Man Henry is growing
Missed you Justin ❤️
Love all your videos!
😃 wow just tap the ground and the "bull" knew exactly what to do
Thank you for this! It's easy to day dream about having a dairy cow. This? Reality!...oh I was frustrated just watching lol.
Hugs from Australia I just feel you need them today .
💚 Thank you 💚
You looked like you were struggling today. Was your lime disease playing up?
This pov style is great...it really connects with me and shows me how to do the things step by step more clearly than vlog style...of course I would never not watch your vlogs mind you...could Rebekah may do a pov in her green house of starting seeds and taking care of here baby plants?
Loved the POV but I personally don't care for silent treatment. Hard to believe if the cameras were off that you would be doing chores without talking to Henry and the animals as you worked. Choosing not to narrate the vlog vs being intentionally silent create different vibes in the vlog IMHO. I'm a long time viewer and I love the channel... just don't care for the intentional silence. Keep up the good work Justin!
Does not have same effect! I would have made the oldest one help. If to help watch the baby. Ole different vibe going on.
I would have been babbling to Henry and the animals the entire time.
Alot of people have said that Justin is fairly quiet when not in front of the camera, so maybe this really is what it's like farming with him 🤔
For me this was the worst video they have ever made.
I disagree totally!!! This was one of my favorite videos he’s ever made, hearing the sounds of the farm and the animals and young son Henry. it’s nice to have silence! Peaceful and you can feel the emotion.
Just thinking about them today. Hope all is good with them. In my prayers
Art & Bri I was talking about
@@edwardsville80 For your information you can always edit your comments by clicking on the 3 vertical dots to the right of comment.
Seems like the baby crying and screaming is making the cows nervous. Food for thought.
Those cows are used to it. It's what they hear every day, so I'm sure they're more accustomed to it than we realize
Fascinating and informative......Thank you!
That’s the hottest 🔥 POV content I’ve ever seen!
And that sweet little boy is living the dream but has no idea yet. No doubt though, he’ll grow up like that 18 year old son of your friend who you shared with us last week. Well-adjusted with a good head on his shoulders and understands the value of hard work. 🙌🏼 #MorePlease
wow you got a heart from Justin for that the hard work is more from his older brother not dad.
pretty quiet video.... also made me realize how hard work running a farm is.!!!
This is about to be one of those potentially unwelcome comments so please take it as intended. NOT as criticism. Just as a faithful viewer who once had a space like this. If it's not broke, don't fix it. I get not having to hussle the way you used to. But you've been changing what you are doing here and perhaps it could change your results. Maybe that ends up being a good thing because you get lots of new viewers. But us old viewers are not as interested in this as we were with what you were producing. We love those kids. We love hearing about what is happening. We love the real life day to day that you have given. Don't try to hard to build something "more". We've loved who you all are for a long time.
Oh man this video is wonderful!!!!!!!!
Justin Rhodes ASMR!
them some fat happy cows
I see your lack of enthusiasm in your youtube vids....moving on up ...
I too have noticed this for sometime now.
I know you love the earth as I; however can't you rig a solar powered milk machine?
God Bless you and yours
Hope your doing ok. Sounded like breathing heavy when brushing and cleaning cow. Didn't know she had her calf. What did you get little bull or heifer? Henry is growing up so fast. What a Great life. Hope all is well. Peace from WV
I think that's 'cuz he was toting Henry
That is because he is in pain not smart to put baby on his back when he is in pain.
I suffer from chronic pain and its not fun. You will have your queit days. He did sound like he not feeling well.
@@sherriemyles2776 I also suffer from Chronic Pain and understand totally. But life on a Homestead means you need to work through the pain. Peace from WV
We’ve seen this in almost every video, show us the pasture pigs make and video of them doing their thing all day or show us how big the baby pigs grew
Nice but whoa. How about putting that foot milk 😂 in your compost? Milk and water equals wonderful fertilizer. You put it back into the ground but I don't think that one spot needed all that 😂. ✌️✌️
Love the video
I think it’s a lot easier milking in the barn. Been doing it for 30+ yrs that way 🤪
This was a wonderful video that shows truly how tough farm life can be… It was wrong and it showed frustration and honesty and I appreciate that very much. We all have days like that whether were farmers or not. I felt for you as I watch this video more times in one!! You just wanted to get a job done that should take 10 to 15 minutes or less and suddenly it becomes 30 minutes or more, Plus the wasted milk and Diana calls it messes and you’re little paddock area, Plus a little boy beginning to fasten adding to the stress. And I almost suspect that you weren’t feeling the best… I could be wrong but I say that based on your gate and the difficulty with which everything seem to be endured, but again as I said before we all have days like that and the job Has to be done regardless!!!!!
Today I am having one of those days myself, So I have great empathy for you♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
“One day at a time sweet Jesus it’s all I’m asking of you coat! Remind yourself of all the things you keep doing right because you and your wife truly are💕💕 You have only to look in your children’s eyes and know you’re are, I’ll look at the beautiful gardens and orchard areas and your lands to be able to pat yourself on the back. Farming is not for the weak at heart & I think you for sharing this wonderful video with us… It speaks volumes😊😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
I also noticed his breathing and walking were difficult. I know that sound of aching in his breath. I was truly hoping the carnivore diet was going to be the solution but with everything natural, there are setbacks.
Cool
Putting thr Rhodes in ASMR!
There's certainly enough grass for a horsie, even with all the other ruminants you have.
Your pastures are beautiful and healthy looking, all your work moving animals has paid off! But wow..milking one cow by hand is a Lot of work. I'm sure you're doing what's works best for y'all. I'd have to do something different, like them coming to the barn for milking and having milking machines..lol..your very patient!
Henrys first word will be cow 😁
Thank you for this. We are in the process of getting our homestead ready for our first family cow... however, how do you keep the hens in the paddock following along yhe cow? The cattle electric fence spaces are big enough for them to go through? We are having that problem figuring it out logistically
The heifer's done with the whole thing even before you start milking. She's only there for the food.
My question is- how do you milk if it's raining or snowing? I love the idea of milking on pasture, but in the Midwest it gets cold, snowy, rainy, etc.
Justin, I have been a faithful viewer for many years now. You always have something interesting to say. This video made me feel like a creeper/stalker peaking over your fence from behind a tree w/there being almost no talking. Please label any further silent videos as POV or SOMETHING so I know not to click on. Still love ya!
I prefer the talking, I mostly listen without looking at the screen.
I feel like I am a superfan but to me this is the worst video they have ever ever made.
Loved it my favorite video so far Justin!
Hay Justin i went to get some chickens for my backyard what do you think the best breed is?
I'm sure you know better than me, but what about moving the shelter first and then milking? Less poop that way.
The silence is nice, the constant moving camera and close shot are not nice...
I'm inexperienced, it seems like there is a lot (most) of milk left in the cow, do you only milk a small amount at a time?
I think they are sharing the milk with the calf maybe.
Very nice video. 💞
Was just thinking about you guys
Using the wire brush on the cows udder made me cringe. Do you have friends that could maybe help you with some milking tips and tricks, maybe Jess? She is actually a great cow.
we had 300 Head of milking cows so we used a dairy Barn with 20 stall's and milking machines pumping to a large tank for pickup twice a week.
Sound effects courtesy of Henry 😀💕💕
I am so used to your voice in your other videos this was strange for me. 😁
How are yall treating
coccidiosis in your animals
Naturally?
Like how did our grandparents deal with it in the horse and buggy days?
We hate to use chemicals.( corid)
I’m exhausted watching that view
I missed you talking! Why were you not talking?
I don't understand Justin from the sounds you are making it sounds like you are in pain so why would you put the baby on your back and make it worse I understand you want to spend time with the baby but what time are you going to spend with him if you are laying in bed all stowed up.
Oh gosh how do you keep the cow from kickin the bucket?
