I believe you did the best thing. I am so sorry l will continue to pray that you find a replacement soon . I know you both loved her ,and had plans for her. I pray the Lord to bless you and give you peace. You have many who love you and want the best for you and the farm. God bless and take care. ❤
If that outside corner is the low spot why don’t you poke a hole through that corner to drain that area until you can come up with a more permanent solution?
You can use agricultural lime for the wet area in the barn. It is animal friendly so it won’t hurt them. It also absorbs the smell. Sorry to hear about Lucy you did the right thing.
Good Morning, Not trying to be critical about the way you loaded the wagon. Just a little suggestion. I noted that your were loading to the front of wagon, I would suggest you load to the back so you don't over stress the hydraulic cylinder and body frame, noted the front twist when you lifted it up. I do love your videos, they do bring back memories from family farm over in Ky., which was just about 40 mi. south of Evansville & Henderson in union county. KEEP VIDEOS COMING!!!
The technical term for what you have in the barge is soupy poopie. I'm glad the barge didn't have a skid pulling the hill. 🤣 But seriously, once you get it piled up (mix in some of your compost too to inoculate the ancient biomass) it will start to dry out and then it will compost fast. Just keep turning it once a week.
Whenever you have animals things like this happen. You did you absolute best for Lucy. You will miss her, but she will never be forgotten. Your animals are well loved. You have always shown the “true” life of homesteading which isn’t always pleasant. That’s the reason I love this channel. Good folks always trying to the best they can and ALWAYS doing it ethically. Thank you for sharing. I sure you are able to find a replacement heifer soon. Take care and God Bless!
Need a mini-excavator, large gravel, and drain tile - and you could easily put a drain along the inside of the one end - running under the wall and out (underground) as far as you needed. Best solution to getting rid of that water situation once and for all.
All your watchers greve with you for your loss .You definitely did your best. Looks to me the simplest way to solve your cleanout/water problem would be to remove the end wall completely and replace it with a sliding door.The wall does not appear to be load bearing wall.
Just a thought Evan. Maybe instead of a drain that would be a constant maintenance issue pour concrete in that corner so it slopes to the opening and out.
Good luck in finding another young cow for Maya’s needed companionship. You obviously did all you could do for Lucy. Sorry. You did learn valuable knowledge that hopefully will never be needed again. Bless you for the way you care for all your animals there on the homestead. 👍💕🙏💕👍
Do a Cajun Country Living concrete dry pour. I was wondering why you moved your manure pile twice. If you had the wagon up there earlier you could take each scoop from the barn and put it in the wagon. Careful piling dirt for your ramp up against the low side of the building. You may be making a dam.
Hind sight and all. . . probably would have been a good idea to clean that out and sterilize before letting any live stock in it. Hope none of the other animals get sick. Prayers for you all. You work hard ,may God bless you.
Trust me Evan....you're "just gettin' used to it..." You're in the "pay dirt" there! Wonderful stuff, handled properly. It should heat up with some water and agitation. I'd probably do it right where it is now, and scoop it up for next year's garden. I'm envious... Always enjoy your an' Rebecca's videos!
Evan, a suggestion - why dont you put 2 or 3 coats of spar varnish or polyurethane or the deck or your dump trailer? It would serve 2 purposes. One, the cover would be much slicker than the pouros wood and two, it would greatly extend the life of the deck. Of course if it has a lot of rot you should replace the deck with a type of wood that is durable yet affordable like red oak and then coat it. Good luck! The videos are very well created and interesting.
Sorry for the loss of Lucy, but you did everything you could to save her and it was time to save her from any more pain and put her down. The barn area looks a lot better now.
Evan maybe you can drill a hole in the block wall and put a pvc pipe in there to drain that corner. A gate where you loaded the wagon would be really helpful getting on and out of the barnyard. That will make some real good fertilizer for the hay fields.
Do not know if anyone has said this . I am saying now while on my mind but i think your Farm would be a perfect farm to replicate on Farming Simulator 22 or 23 when it comes out ...I know you have busy life but something to think about would be very cool to see ... Must add i think you have the best You Tube farming show out there ...No phony stuff feels real to me and when you goof up you are not afraid to admit it and learn from it... Half my life i lived on a farm and your video feel like i have gone home ..Keep up the excellent job... Thank You
The rainwater is a very good answer to toxins ad it has already been cleaned through evaporation. Just make sure the tanks are clean and don't alow it to stagnate. Sorry about your heffer . Maybe consider a hybrid instead of a pure jersey. They are less susceptible to problems. Good luck . Love the content
Sulfur content in the well water around here is the reason I use rainwater to water my livestock. I have gutters and water storage at my main barn, goat barn, and coop. I still need to install one at my buck barn and new coop.
Farm life can be extremely tough at times but the good days outweigh the bad most always. Unfortunately this won’t be the last loss and each time comes with its own issues. Knowing you did everything humanly possible has to help soften the loss. You certainly have a real compassion for all your animals so I know you went over and beyond what was needed, a visit to the farm should have been your vets first priority…ask Dr Pol, yes that Dr Pol and my husbands vet cousin would NEVER have given advice without the visit. Just boggles the mind! Anyway…all that said, you will eventually find another jersey to grace your pasture with a far better outcome. Thanks for sharing your down days as well as your up days on the homestead because that is real life on a homestead!!!:):):)
Evan, you’re one of the hardest working, and the most innovative guys I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. Why don’t you just put in a French drain on the downslope side of the bank barn so it feeds a collector drainpipe down the slope. That would eliminate 95% of the problem with the water collection. I would think the hardest part of that job would be poking some holes in that concrete wall but you could rent a piece of equipment to do that for you and make a back breaking job a lot easier.
Great job what you need to do is get a skid steer with a bucket with tracks. It's tight in there and make it easier to clean. But I love what you doing on the Farm.
Wondering if maybe sulfur toxicity wouldn't be as much of a problem if you caught some rainwater off the barn for your live stock. So sorry this happened. Glad you had the guts to make the hard decision and lessen her suffering.
Wouldn't be surprised if rain contains high Sulphur. Maybe putting a filter on the well water. One the other hand, it may affect one in an entire herd. Nature happens.
Well that might work, but that doesn'help when you go 3 weeks with zero rain Also regardless of what people may think rain water is not really all that clean, lots of toxic crap floating around in the atmosphere
I'm sorry for your loss. Being a farmer, things like that will happen. Just shows your level of commitment to your animals by caring and trying as hard as you did. Such fantastic stewards of your land.
You need to things first is a bob cat an the outer is on the low side of the. Area you cleaned drill holes low thru the blocks. So the water can drain out
I am sorry that you had to put down your heifer, it is hard but you don't want the animal to suffer. On your drainage situation, could you chisel out one of the lower concrete blocks in that corner to allow the water and waste liquid to drain out into the barnyard?
Good to see you back. I'm so sorry about your rough patch. Your big red tractor sure is a capable machine. You've got the ideal set up now - big red and little red. A capable machine for every job. If I was in your shoes I'd go for the quick, low cost and easy solution; at the lowest point of the floor - break out 1/2 of a concrete block. If it is gravel (bring your back hoe in and scratch at it) you'll know right quick.. If it is gravel go down one block and knockout a hole in that course. Either way it is going to drain. You can build a catch basin outside and pipe the discharge downhill so you don't have a muddy mess. Use a 6" diameter pipe in our catch basin so it doesn't plug up. You should be able to bust this job out in one weekend with your backhoe. But the first thing is get in there with your backhoe where you think it's gravel and scratch around. See what you find.😊
Sorry to hear about Lucy, that's a tough decision to make but the right one. That sure was a lot of manure back there and the back hoe definitely helped quite a bit, nice video!
Sorry for your loss of Lucy; you did all you could and probably much more than most others would - commendable effort, and you made the right decision.
Hi Evan. This is the first time I'm watching your video. Im very interested in becoming a farmer. Im from Brazil, but I'm living in canada 🇨🇦 for the past 30 years. I'm being think about going back to start doing what you doing right now. Hope will happen soon. Gid bless you and your family. All the best. Ill continue to watching your videos. Take care.
To get rid of sulfur water you need to aerate the well. I have drilled a small hole at the top of my pressure line from the pump to the well head fitting that sprays a bit of water at the top of the casing. It mists to the bottom capturing oxygen on its way down. The oxygen rich water kills the bacteria that causes the sulfur smell. Might work for you. Research well aeration to get rid of sulfur.
Sorry for your loss of your heifer. If all the water from your barn goes to the corner of your shed drill a hole with a hole saw at the bottom of the wall so it drains out.
So sorry Lucy didn’t make it but I hope, as you want, you manage to get a companion for Miah. The clean up was definitely yucky but it looks like you have some amazing compost in your future. Miah is, surprisingly, pretty chill around the tractor.
I’m so sorry about Lucy. I’m watching a lot of channels with animals, and it breaks my heart when anyone loses a farm animal. It’s part of life and farming/ homesteading,but I know it’s not easy. I enjoy your videos a lot. Everything you do on your farm to make it better, I learn something new.
Keep up. You did great. You care a lot for your animals. I did some research in the feed you are giving. Maybe you should check out the alfalfa plant. This is a high sulfer plant. Wue in the netherlands never give this to our cows. Only grass and some cake. Also we dont feed extra when they are on grass.
Enjoying your videos. You may want to pressure wash the inside of the barn since the previous owner may have had sick or diseased animals in there. Once pressure washed spray with a diluted bleach solution. That should kill most everything that would be of concern. My wife and I had similar experience with a barn. Sweet lime or agricultural powered lime is good to sprinkle on the wet areas to kill the odor and will speed up the break down of solids to soil. It is a must on your compost pile. Love what y’all are doing. Keep up the good work! Blessings
Sorry about your loss. Living on a farm my dad would always say, something new is being born, while something else’s life is ending. Blessings on you guys, and look forward in seeing another jersey soon. Your barn is something that is always going to be a problem, because it is on a slope. Blessings🙂
Yea, I was out cutting the pasture yesterday and a deer just moseyed across the pasture not 100' in front of me, tractor and rotary cutter running and all. I stopped and it just gave me a glance and just keep walking. 🤷♂ We walked out that evening and a couple were out across the pasture grazing and only budged when the dogs saw them and took off...lol.
The goats also get "polio " .they have usually had a digestive upset of some sort. They resolved well to injections of thiamine and getting back into a normal diet . I don't know dosage for cows, it's by weight for the goats. I enjoy your videos. All have been great! Thanks! .
Two things to consider , One would be fine some sheet steel or aluminum to line the bed of your dump trailer to make it slick enough for everything just slide out , The other one would be to rent a 4 inch Core bit and then Bore a hole in the corner where all the water drains too,so all of the water in the barn will drain of the barn shed
@@gitatit4046 Sledge hammer comes to mind! ⚒🤔 How about renting a electric jack hammer? He goes to all these elaborate measures to do thing on the farm but can 't knock a hole in the wall???? Just saying! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ LLAP 🖖
So sorry about Lucy. 😢 I know you did all you could for her. I was wondering when you were going to have more tee shirts in your merchandise shop. Would love to order a couple. Thanks. Have a great day.
We all know you did what you could for Lucy, its a bad loss but you did what you could.
You may want to consider a manure spreader.
All your stuff looks brand new. Y'all must have won the lottery.
Evan & Rebecca, knowing how much you care for your animals, you made the right decision for Lucy.
I believe you did the best thing. I am so sorry l will continue to pray that you find a replacement soon . I know you both loved her ,and had plans for her. I pray the Lord to bless you and give you peace. You have many who love you and want the best for you and the farm. God bless and take care. ❤

So sorry for your loss.
If that outside corner is the low spot why don’t you poke a hole through that corner to drain that area until you can come up with a more permanent solution?
You guys need a skidsteer!
Would make cleaning that so much easier!
He couldve done it easy with that tractor but he went at it all wrong which made the job take longer
Try spreading lime which will help with the odor plus help with bacteria
You can use agricultural lime for the wet area in the barn. It is animal friendly so it won’t hurt them. It also absorbs the smell. Sorry to hear about Lucy you did the right thing.
Hi.... Evan and Rebecca thanks you for showing your video homestead bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍

I so much Enjoy watching your Videos..
Can't wait till your next one...😊
The pigs want to play in that compost. Funny critters.
We love our pigs as well.

A skid steer Evan, you need a skid steer on the farm. It's smaller size would be ideal for this job and many others.
Don't think you would regret it.
Where there's life on the farm, there's death on the farm. But there's always renewal on the farm. Sorry for the loss of your Luçy. 😢

I'd pick up a 4" concrete core bit, and try to get it as close as you can to pad level, drilling from the outside.
Sulfur content in the well water around here is the reason I use rainwater to water my livestock. I have gutters and water storage at my main barn, goat barn, and coop. I still need to install one at my buck barn and new coop.
That’s to bad about Lucy, stinky work today for you today but you got er done.
i will be SO GLAD when you finally fix that part...

Great work guys. Hope you can find out where the water is coming from.❤
I remember thinking all that concrete rubble you removed from the back wall of the barn a year ago would make a great base for a ramp into your barn.
Evan try going to the lower corner and making a hole on the back side so the water can drain out.
Lots of black gold for the pile
Chip a hole right through the wall in the corner; that's what we do to drain sunken living rooms during construction.
sorry about the loss of your cow
To get rid of sulfur water you need to aerate the well. I have drilled a small hole at the top of my pressure line from the pump to the well head fitting that sprays a bit of water at the top of the casing. It mists to the bottom capturing oxygen on its way down. The oxygen rich water kills the bacteria that causes the sulfur smell. Might work for you. Research well aeration to get rid of sulfur.
You might try loading only the back half to 2/3 of that dump trailer. Should make it much easier to lift.
Sorry for your loss of your heifer. If all the water from your barn goes to the corner of your shed drill a hole with a hole saw at the bottom of the wall so it drains out.
So sorry Lucy didn’t make it but I hope, as you want, you manage to get a companion for Miah.

Just to inform you when you use your dump wagon make sure your front axle is square with a trailer or you could flip it over.
The wheels of the trailer turn like those on a car. Not like a Radio Flyer wagon.
Thank you for your TLC and care. All your animals are better for your efforts and attitude. Onward.
Keep up. You did great. You care a lot for your animals.
I did some research in the feed you are giving. Maybe you should check out the alfalfa plant. This is a high sulfer plant. Wue in the netherlands never give this to our cows. Only grass and some cake. Also we dont feed extra when they are on grass.
Great video Evan. Thank you to both of you
Enjoying your videos. You may want to pressure wash the inside of the barn since the previous owner may have had sick or diseased animals in there. Once pressure washed spray with a diluted bleach solution. That should kill most everything that would be of concern. My wife and I had similar experience with a barn. Sweet lime or agricultural powered lime is good to sprinkle on the wet areas to kill the odor and will speed up the break down of solids to soil. It is a must on your compost pile. Love what y’all are doing. Keep up the good work! Blessings
yup....spraying the cement floors is a must for wet manure areas. Dairy farmers I know keep their barns squeaky clean.
Sorry to hear of your loss of Lucy. You made a difficult decision that was the correct one. God bless you guys.

Thanks!
.
If you test your animal drinking water for sulfur and if it is above 600 mg/L you should treat with 35% Peroxide .
Two things to consider , One would be fine some sheet steel or aluminum to line the bed of your dump trailer to make it slick enough for everything just slide out , The other one would be to rent a 4 inch Core bit and then Bore a hole in the corner where all the water drains too,so all of the water in the barn will drain of the barn shed
👍
They definitely need a long-term solution to drain that shed. Besides a science project it's also a fly breeding area.
