This is my dream world! Big piece of land, small waterfall on a stream, birds, cows, chickens, ducks, a horse and the perfect dog , a Border Collie. Loved the video
8-1-19 EST HI,My dad has been looking too(dream world) when you do, let me know, Please.( Shiloh, my dads best friend (I'm his Beagle) Super great video
I was raised in a place like this and always thought it was too much work to be done even if I loved with all my life. Then I moved to a super tiny apartment on the city to work in an office (mostly to prepare myself for the real world), and suddenly I was like 'wth am I doing????? THIS is hardwork, I'm bloody unhappy, this isn't the real world, this is a joke'. Thing is, life is a hardwork, but some hardwokrs are just insane and unreasonable; I'm moving back as soon as I can for good.
@@azurehue2248 Our Khaki Campbells reduced our grassed area to a Somme-like expanse of mud and craters...slug and snail free, but pretty barren too! But they were a joy and I miss them...and the eggs too!
coming from a person with ducks, i dont know what you mean by "they dont destroy the greens"... my girl Ferdinand is a monster green destroyer... and an expert snail/slug ignore-er..
I love ducks♡ This year a wild duck started breeding in a flower pot infront of my bedroom window right next to my bed on our balcony. It was one of the most magical experiences ever. I am bedbound due to illness so I spent a lot of time watching and talking to the ducky♡ She only left for a short period every day in the evening to feed and wash and do her business. She didn't soil her nest even once. She had 6 gorgeous chicks. I hope she comes back next year♡
I have a farm collie, his family comes down from immediate farm stock. And while mine sleeps indoors, his family has a door to the outside to protect the the stock, chickens, ducks. gees, turkeys, goats, sheep and the vegetable garden. My dog would be a horrid pet without the work he does, and needs his jobs to stay sane. And of course, his training. Lovely job, Mossy Bottom, I envy your life.
AHHhhhhh, SoooOOOooo nice to see your EVER-SMILING face again! WHAT 'JOY' you exude young man! You make me pine for having some land of my own! WELL DONE! Your intelligent, well-researched, decisions and the GENUINE LOVE, you put into all you do...are so VERY 'Evident'! If I were a DUCK or any animal on your farm, I would feel as though I ended up in a 'Garden of Eden'! HEART, HEART, HEART! You place yourself as though into the very animal you incorporate, considering practicality, budget, safety for; animal, yourself and from predators . Materials are wisely chosen, environment at the forefront. TRULY, this is both; entertaining and informative. I realize, and though only in part, that you have much to consider, but it would make a good guide to format these videos into book form. I pray for your well-being 'Mossy Bottom' and look forward to following videos. Due keep SMILING...it ails all that is not! God Bless you!
It is so fun to watch all these things that Mossy bottom I have an acre of land outside of Gervais Oregon United States the Ducks and the geese and the chickens and the ponies and the pigs it's like watching my life all over again
For all the difficulties of my life these days, the one thing I can count on is a smile when i watch your life. I wish your ducks a long and healthy life. :)
LOVE the duck house design. I have Indian runner ducks. They absolutely love the water. I live on a lake and the runners spend more time in the water than on land. They are so happy in the water. Even with a huge source of water in the lake, new puddles or water from the hose on the ground is also irresistible to them. Couldn’t imagine keeping them without water. Wonderful homestead you have. Love your videos.
All ducks Like water But it is not necessary IRD / Cayuga's / Khakis Need big pools even less .....Hell Cayuga ducks are a mountain Duck No ponds up there
This guys voice is amazing, he could read me anything and I would have to listen. Some people put music on to sleep, I just put his video on... lol....
I'm a watercolor painter and came across your video while looking for inspiration to paint nesting Canadian Geese. There's a bit of country in my soul, as that was my upbringing. Your ducks are charming and so are you!
Loved seeing your runner ducks. The final shot with the cows in the background and the green rolling pastures was so beautiful. You are truly blessed. I am stuck in the city/suburb of Atlanta, Ga. in an apartment right now.We had a 1 acre homestead with a brick cottage that needed renovating, but we lived in it, and we paid cash and had a $6000 well put in for fresh water. Then my 2yr old grandson went into the hospital 2 weeks before Christmas 2yrs ago, and was diagnosed with lymphoblastic leukemia . My daughter rented us an apartment so we could be near them during this trying time and help take care of our granddaughter who was 7yrs old at the time, while little Jackson started chemotherapy. We planned on staying for at least 3 or 4 months so we had all the electricity and gas cut off at our house and sold our heritage breed chickens. We knew we could restock when we came back home. Then one night we get a call from our neighbor, someone broke into our house and started a fire in the living room, and burnt our house down. It would just so happen, while we were going through the fear and heartbreak of dealing with Jackson's health and treatment, we had forgotten about our annual homeowner's insurance coming due. The bill was waiting for us at the post office as we had our mail held until we came back. Not having a house or car payment, and paying off the utilities and having them shut off, we thought we had nothing to worry about paying until we got back home. Of course, we were over 30 days late on the annual insurance payment, so they would not cover the fire. So now we are stuck living 2 and a half hours away in a big city area in an apartment, and I really miss growing my organic heirloom vegetables, and eating grass feed organic eggs from my heritage breed chickens. So, never take for granted how blessed you are to live on the land, raise your own food, and enjoy the beauty of animals and nature. I will never take it for granted if we ever get back.
bizzybee, So sorry to hear of your sad loss, and your words of advice at the end are to be taken seriously. I hope you and your family are doing better now?
You chose wisely. I had Indian runners for three and s half years. I love them dearly. I just gave them away about a month ago😭But they went to go live at a wonderful farm with 50 acres in a 7 acre pond.!
2degucitas lol They are goofy looking but Yep they can swim great. They can fly to get away from predators also. But they do not do either as well as like a mallard. But they do fine. They are really wonderful ducks as you can tell from the video! They are really loving and just so much fun to have. And I believe they lay eggs through their entire life also? that is a bonus over a chicken. That’s what I was told but cannot confirm because they were 3 1/2 years old with many more years to go. My husband and I are going to be traveling for work and they are just big work to pay somebody to come and take care of.
Lee Michaels I have a question, can they free range and come back at night like chickens? I have a huge garden but no enclosures, my chickens just roam everywhere and come back because they know that their home is the chicken coop, do ducks do the same or they might just fly away or run away?
We just love this channel and mossy love the ducks would love to do what you have done just love Ireland we could live there xxxxxDiane Colin till next time 🇨🇮🐸💚💚💚🍀🇨🇮
Great video. Here in New Mexico, on the high desert, we don't have slug problems so much as ticks but letting the chickens out to free range during the day totally eliminates the ticks and all garden pests. Plus they fertilize the garden as they go. Natural, organic fertilizer and pest control! What could be better. Keep up the good work, you are an inspiration!
Aw, I once had a khaki Campbell! So beautiful! Sable brown, black feet and bill, green eyes. She was the only pet duck I’ve ever had that would stretch out on her side and love to be scratched. She rolled around just like a kitten!
What I love about your posts is how non-coercive they are. So many UA-cam channels scream, "Like me!" And though I can see this channel is a way for you to have an income stream, there's an honesty and gentleness I don't see elsewhere. I don't feel like I'm being manipulated. And I'm inspired by your lifestyle choice without feeling that awful jealousy that washes over me while watching other like channels. Thank you for showing us your life - it looks like hard work, but doable and possible-not out of reach, you know?❤️ And these ducks are adorable!!!
when I was a kid I found eggs under a dock by a river and put them in my dads incubator and we hatched and raised wild ducks along side our chickens free range
I've been drawing ducklings all well and stumbling on this video made me so happy. Spec to see them in the water, which I agree with you they love. Great work on the duck house. Love your videos. Thank you.
So glad you have the ducks quality of life at heart..u look after your animals well...Arrh s cute in the water area. They love swimming and ducking under the water,so delightful to see.
I figured when I saw he ducks on Intagram that a new video wouldn't be far behind. The ducks are much more personable (for lack of a better term) than I thought they would be. Nice to see a new video and look forward to the cottage restoration.
Thank you for this! I almost always have my breakfast of eggs and garden veggies sitting in front of a UA-cam video or two and this one made me smile... a lot. I wish I could have ducks, but I can't deal with the preditors where I live in SE Texas USA, namely rat snakes, coyotes, bobcats, and our own species of fox. I would cry a river if I lost a duck or a chicken. So, yes, thanks again because I love to see success stories and happy animals. ;)
Thanks for providing some good tips about duck raising. I had the good fortune of having a couple of duck friends a few years ago, and you are so right about their timid nature. They'd stop by my house every day for a pan of fresh water, and we would hang out together for a while. Very affectionate, very emotional. I miss them every day since we moved. I'm so glad you 'get' them :-)
I’ve missed your videos so much! I know winters are wet over there and it was probably hard to keep filming, but you’ve been missed my friend. Love your little ducks! I’ve been thinking about getting some when we move. Hoping for a sweet bed and breakfast with land to market garden and room for a few animals. Keeping you in my prayers.
A very clever duck house and lovely ducks! The thing I like about ducks around the gardens, is that they aren't nearly as destructive to plants while they forage for bugs and slugs ;) Thank you for sharing with us!
I LOVE NUGGET!! Darcy and the other one are really sweet but Nugget is awesome. Love your new video. It's been a long time since we saw your place. You look so grand. This life suits you. Love the duck house, so practical. Awesome design. Those duck eggs will fetch a nice price or barter. Most Excellent. Great editing. Hope to see you again real soon. 🦋🐞🦋
I had a lonely runner duck from warmer Tennessee join my little flock in colder Wisconsin, who used to freak out Ms Cayuga by swimming under her in the kiddy-pool. Your lovely Nugget brought me a great memory. Otherwise, she was quite shy, demure, and respectful.
They are so adorable! I miss my Runners. My Cayuga duck and one of my Pekins went broody and are expecting babies in the next couple of weeks, and several of my sneaky hens have hatched out chicks this spring and summer. I love your duck house! PS: All waterfowl need water!
I was born in a farm in Brazil, but now I live in Maine USA....We had lots of chickens, ducks and some geese too.....I love to see your videos....I cant wait to see your cottage, I visited Ireland a very long time ago and I loved the little cottages. Stay happy and healthy, Liuba
When I lived in Kenya, I had a large flock of runner ducks. They are charming creatures and prolific egg layers. I really enjoyed this video, it is sweet and gentle; a lovely introduction to runners.
Fantasticly enjoyable. Moss' speciality is deliberately upstaging you : 11.52 skipping + twirling a baton other side of fence EXACTLY behind your head. 15.04 Kissing a cow beside your left ear. 😂😂 Adorable.
Your footage is evident Indian runner ducks absolutely need the water !! It was a delight seeing them in the river at the bottom of your land for the first time, so happy. So natural for them to just jump in and play and clean themselves ☺️.
I'm very impressed! I raise runners and they are always afraid of me haha! They do come up to eat but I could never hold them. I'll try with the next batch feeding them by hand more! Thanks! Great vid!
They sure do love the water, don’t they? Thanks for sharing part of your journey with us, it gives me such piece and inspiration, watching your little family! Know it’s way over used, and has become almost meaningless, but from the bottom of my heart, I wish great contentment and a long wonderful life, in which to enjoy it!
I just discovered your channel last night and have been binge-watching. I can totally identify with your sense of urgency to get away from "civilization". And you're absolutely adorable! Excellent job on all of your projects and so tickled for you!
Some years ago I lived in mid Wales and had 6 Khaki Campbells: they were the nicest animals I've ever kept! My neighbours used to encourage them into their gardens to eat the slugs! And I regularly got over 300 eggs a year. Thanks for your little video, I have tears of nostalgia in my eyes!
I don’t have a farm or ducks, but live amidst the orchards and farms of the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia. I so agree - we need nature like the ducks need water. You have created a sweet space with your animal companions. Thank you for a beautiful video !
Happy ducks, happy dog, peaceful home life. Lucky man, making his dream come true, much respect.
All he needs now is a woman to....
Alan Simpson too much drama and stress.
irishwench333 ducks are what brings me peace. I am so thankful for them.
jjj
fucking ravers
This is my dream world! Big piece of land, small waterfall on a stream, birds, cows, chickens, ducks, a horse and the perfect dog , a Border Collie. Loved the video
Start with a little piece of land and make it your reality!
There will be lots and lots of 💩💩💩💩💩

@@shaash5236 It's only work if you don't enjoy doing it. It's leisure when you do.
Ducks are the fiercest predators of snails and slugs, but they don’t destroy the greens and they even fertilize them. Perfect pest control
@Antonio Jutronic can confirm! my runners love eating them
My ducks LOVE slugs. I also love them; I find them super cute. :( They are less cute when they destroy my squash. So I gotta choose!
@@azurehue2248 Our Khaki Campbells reduced our grassed area to a Somme-like expanse of mud and craters...slug and snail free, but pretty barren too! But they were a joy and I miss them...and the eggs too!

I am interested in a duck book.

You mean Disney Story comes alive :-)

Amongst all the scary news and depressing politics how wonderful to find a genuine and inspiring person sharing this wonderful content. Thanks!
It is delightful to observe your kindness and love towards all your livestock. If they are not happy, healthy and content, you can not possibly be.
Not only are your ducks utmost lovable, but the construstion of the duck house is most impressive. 🏠🦆❤️
A gentle earth carer. What a blessing. All goodness to behold.

Think mud, muck, snow

I LOVE ducks. They are silly and soft and cute from start to finish. I haven't raised that breed yet.
How man was meant to live. Connected to and apart of nature. Not disconnected and apart from nature. You are an inspiration to us all.
They are so adorable!! Although I have to admit that nugget is my favorite too... shhh don’t let the other two know.

Those beautiful cows in the background ❤️
I'm very impressed! I raise runners and they are always afraid of me haha! They do come up to eat but I could never hold them. I'll try with the next batch feeding them by hand more! Thanks! Great vid!
It is good to see you and hear from you again! Glad you are well..
Delighted to see you uploading again!
They sure do love the water, don’t they? Thanks for sharing part of your journey with us, it gives me such piece and inspiration, watching your little family! Know it’s way over used, and has become almost meaningless, but from the bottom of my heart, I wish great contentment and a long wonderful life, in which to enjoy it!
Love the calming effect you exude my friend.. God bless you
The ducks and their first experience with water---how charming! Loved seeing how excited they were ♥
Great to see you again.Your ducks are beautiful. Watching you from the west of ireland, practically neighbours!!! Connemara in Co.Galway xx
Daniel always takes special care of the younger animals!
You've been gone too long! So happy that you're back. The ducks are adorable.
I just discovered your channel last night and have been binge-watching. I can totally identify with your sense of urgency to get away from "civilization". And you're absolutely adorable! Excellent job on all of your projects and so tickled for you!
Thanks for uploading a video again. Can you please upload videos more often.
Some years ago I lived in mid Wales and had 6 Khaki Campbells: they were the nicest animals I've ever kept! My neighbours used to encourage them into their gardens to eat the slugs! And I regularly got over 300 eggs a year. Thanks for your little video, I have tears of nostalgia in my eyes!
Ohhh kayy
Such a heartwarming video 💖 your knowledge and the way in which you present your videos is very interesting 👌 love your duckies!!! Thank you 😃🖐🐕🐥🐥🐥💖
They are loving the water. What a great home for the ducks.
Just found your channel today, love the ducks! I also have ducks and will be using your ideas on their new house. Thank you for a great video!
I don’t have a farm or ducks, but live amidst the orchards and farms of the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia. I so agree - we need nature like the ducks need water. You have created a sweet space with your animal companions. Thank you for a beautiful video !
