I know what i would do if I had chickens. I would get a thick plastic carpet. I would place it down on the floor. Then add the shaving on top. Then when it was time to clean it. All i had to do is fold it back on all four corners. Then pull it out and dump it. Saves a lot of time.
I love Minutes with Von, you're always smiling and so upbeat. Looking forward to more videos during the week and and always love seeing you both later on in the week. Keep the videos coming,have a good day.
I really liked your midweek share. What a nice surprise. Brings back my memories of living in Alaska. Keep sharing. Now I can look forward to 2 watches a week. Thank you Von... you are awesome!!
Good job Von. Nothin' like moving chicken manure to open up the nostrils! I enjoy watching the two of you on your homestead. We have a 110 acre farm just East of North Pole that my wife and I are developing. However, unlike you and Ryan, we are seniors. My wife is 67 and I will be 74 in two months. So we go at a slower pace. I pray God will protect and bless you both. Dave S in North Pole, AK
I'm loving the midweek video 💜. Really don't care what you put in it, I'm just happy to have another video! VON'S MINUTES is going to be a huge hit!! Can't wait to see what baby chicks you get 💜🐣
Love this new edition to your channel. Always enjoy seeing that smiling face. The editing on this was great. The coop looked brand new. Great job girl! 🐥🐤🐣👏 See ya on Friday. Much love from Rhode Island, Terry 💯 🙏🥰
Hey Von. So cool to have you here more than once a week, I have never used or seen the pellets used in a hen house before. The other day I saw Arielle use them in theirs now you, I’m excited to finally get chickens again next year when we move to our new place. Thanks girl, cheers 🇨🇦🌷
Good morning Von! That's a nice surprise for a Wednesday morning. 😉 A Beautiful morning view of Alaska, lot's of Snow and a Pretty Red Chicken coup 😅 😉 My favorite color. It really brightens up the area. Thanks for sharing your work routine, cheerfulness and Smile to Greet the day. Can't wait to see your new chickens. Thanks again for taking the time to do another video. Hope you have an Extra Special day. 🙏 God Bless ❤
Hey girl you're a hard worker. You did good!! You'll have some happy chickens!! Can't wait till you get your new babies.😊💜✨ I'm sending much love and support from Florida 🌺💫💫💫
It was a great surprise. Love the idea of a short video on Wednesday. It makes waiting till Friday to see both of your smiling faces. It's nice to see its finally getting warmer after such a cold winter. Can't till Friday video. Take care😊
Awesome idea, a short midweek video! Ryan will be happy he won't have to clean the coop out...lol 😂😅 Here's a thought though, you said the little side will be for the chick's, yet you moved all the heavy stuff back into that side. 😉 🤔 Love ya'll ❤
That was a lot of buckets of chicken poop. The new chicks will have a clean place to start out. I thought you could get mail delivered chicks but maybe not in Alaska.
Loved the video! I learned something from you. I didn’t know about the pellets. We have 27 chicks and I want to fix our chicken pen up like yours. We don’t have that big of a chicken coop, but I live in Texas and we don’t normally have really cold weather, so our pen is where they’ll mostly reside.😊
This is a delightful `surprise `seeing you on a Wednesday. Next time maybe try a tarp by the coup, `shovel the content on it and dump it on the compost, might work, might not but would save you many trip`s.
Von, you can save $ on floor litter by using Simple Living Alaska's trick. Get some cheap linoleum and put it down on the floor. That way, just shovel out the old litter and droppings.
Hey Von, I'd like to have some of that for on my garden.😊 By the way, since you have experience you guys can come down to SW Oregon and clean our coop.😂😂😂
Hey was pleasantly surprised to see you added a video Love that you’re doing it. Haven heard the song since high school but love the spin you put on it 😅 Did you eat your turkeys? Will check mid week for you Keep smiling ❤
Hi Von! Do you plan to heat your chicken coop in winter? We are debating getting birds again. The heating issue is what’s really holding us back. In our old home (not off grid) the ladies had a nice warm coop all winter.
See if Eric and Arielle will sell you some adults since they have the hatching down with their hens. I know they are drowning in eggs with their new set up.
So glad you put out an extra video . Once is good, but twice is even better !
Nice job on the chicken coop. You need to get one of those plastic sleds to help tote things around 😊
Good idea!!
Oh I love Minutes with Von!!! 😊 What a fun video!! Those chickens will be very cozy and happy!! 😊
Good morning. What a nice surprise to have bonus videos. ☺️ Minutes with Von, will be just as fun as Wildwood off Grid. Have a Blessed day.
Hello Vonn,I am there with you, I enjoy your time,have your self a great day,one bucket at a time.
I know what i would do if I had chickens. I would get a thick plastic carpet. I would place it down on the floor. Then add the shaving on top. Then when it was time to clean it. All i had to do is fold it back on all four corners. Then pull it out and dump it. Saves a lot of time.
Love what you’re doing Von ! Thanks so much for sharing and who’d ever not love an extra video !! Here’s to some warmer weather for all of us 😁
Great video
Wow, what a nice clean and neat chicken coop! Wearing a mask while scooping the poop is a good safety measure.
Yes! What a ding dong I was, Ryan told me the same thing when I came inside 🤦🏻♀️
Awesome hanging out with ya Von, good job well done on getting the chicken coop cleaned out and prepared for the new chickens, yay cant wait👏🐥🐣🐓🐔🙋♀️😁

What a nice surprise to see your smiling face today. Looking forward to "minutes with Von" 🥰
For future reference, I use my jet sled for everything. I have a small one for trapping, and my big one gets everything else.
So beautiful there. Chickens soon, hopefully. Here I am at 3:21 am. on a Wednesday morning catching Von Spring clean. 😊
Hey Von. So cool to have you here more than once a week, I have never used or seen the pellets used in a hen house before. The other day I saw Arielle use them in theirs now you, I’m excited to finally get chickens again next year when we move to our new place. Thanks girl, cheers 🇨🇦🌷

That was a lot of buckets of chicken poop. The new chicks will have a clean place to start out. I thought you could get mail delivered chicks but maybe not in Alaska.
We can, I’ve never done it before, but it is an option 👍👍
Hi Von. I use a mask when I clean my chicken coop so i'm not breathing chicken poo dust. Nice job.
In hindsight, I absolutely agree. Ryan said the same thing when I came in the house 🤦🏻♀️ 😂
Loved the video! I learned something from you. I didn’t know about the pellets. We have 27 chicks and I want to fix our chicken pen up like yours. We don’t have that big of a chicken coop, but I live in Texas and we don’t normally have really cold weather, so our pen is where they’ll mostly reside.😊
nice to see you the cope is looking good hope you get chickens soon see you fri
Von watch another family from Alaska they have chickens,they put Lino down in the coop so it is so easy to clean out.Thought I would let you know.🌺🌺
😊it’s actually wood patterned linoleum.
This is a delightful `surprise `seeing you on a Wednesday. Next time maybe try a tarp by the coup, `shovel the content on it and dump it on the compost, might work, might not but would save you many trip`s.
Great idea! 💡Thanks!
Thanks for this video!
Von, could've used a snow machine and cart to move it. ❤😊
Great job should be awesome 👍👍
Love this!
Von, you can save $ on floor litter by using Simple Living Alaska's trick. Get some cheap linoleum and put it down on the floor. That way, just shovel out the old litter and droppings.
The floor is covered in a faux wood linoleum flooring.
We put a hatch in the floor of our chicken coop to make it easier to clean.
That was smart 👍
Love the second video!!
Awesome! Thank you! 😊
You go Von 😉❤
Hey Von, I'd like to have some of that for on my garden.😊 By the way, since you have experience you guys can come down to SW Oregon and clean our coop.😂😂😂
Lol!! 😂 Sounds great! 👍
That fork scoop is basically for horse poop and sawdust
Aha! 💡
All that work, you deserve a beer and a bag of jalapeño ranch.
Darn tootin’! 😂 😂
Are you going to use all of that compost and all in your garden this year
Absolutely! 👍
Minutes with Von is nice. How many buckets did you do?
I lost count, but it sure ended up being a heck of a pile 💩
Hey was pleasantly surprised to see you added a video
Love that you’re doing it. Haven heard the song since high school but love the spin you put on it 😅
Did you eat your turkeys?
Will check mid week for you
Keep smiling ❤
We were keeping them for a friend.
😀😍
Such a nice midweek treat! So, what was the total number of buckets you hauled out of there?
😂 Not sure, but toooooo many 😂
Hi Von! Do you plan to heat your chicken coop in winter? We are debating getting birds again. The heating issue is what’s really holding us back. In our old home (not off grid) the ladies had a nice warm coop all winter.
We will probably heat the coop during the coldest parts of winter. Our last flock did fine even when it was -50F for over a week straight.
@@wildwoodoffgridalaska oh wow! That’s impressive!!
Von, why don't you just contact Arenal at simple living Alaska for a few hens ?
15 minutes matter, right? The jobs we put off can often be done in minutes. My current dreaded job is getting the winter muck off the garage floor.
See what you should have is fire up the tractor and bring the bucket over and fill and then dump and use the tractor to help you
Manure rake :)
See if Eric and Arielle will sell you some adults since they have the hatching down with their hens. I know they are drowning in eggs with their new set up.
🇳🇴👍👍👌
Next time pull the tractor close to the door and fill the bucket
Nice that when you get dirty, you can go take a hot shower in your new shower 🚿 😊
