Nick, from the many times I've seen you appear on other homesteaders' videos, as the willing and friendly expert/helper, your Superman t-shirt was most definitely made for you!! Thank you for showing up in the inspiring way you do, I am a big fan. Cheers, Lee
Thanks, can't help myself, it costs nothing to help someone. And the happiness it gives is worth millions
Strong wife happy husband 😊
5000 plus views just give a 👍up aswell come on people it costs you nothing ❤🎉
Thanks again for coming to help with the roof, couldn't have done it without you! 💚 so sorry about the ducklings 😥x
When on osb on battens before putting metal roofing sheets down?
We love Dan and Laura
Sorry to hear about the loss of the ducklings.
It must've felt like a strange coded message when the neighbours arrived and said ' your pigs are swimming'
The storm was wild. I guess they called it Nelson because it only had one eye.
Sorry to hear about the ducklings. 😢
So sorry for your loss of the ducklings. 😢❤
Sorry for the sweet little ducks ,they were so cute , .wish you a better weather for next week ..
My heart is sad about your baby ducks.
Nick you are an amazing neighbor to your community. The help and advice you give is extraordinary! You are a Gem and loved by many. Sorry about the duckings. I was worried it was the piglets, but they sure got chunky. 😊
He is officially the Mayor of Alpedrinha
Nice pig pen ....shame about the little ducklings.One year I lost mine to a mink.
Fighting the brush, the brambles and wind is crazy! So sorry about your ducklings. 😢
Im sorry you lost your little ducklings... and the Momma was injured... its a harsh lesson to learn that caring for animals means you have to think defensively for their own survival from predators...
Its a huge learning curve...!
You've accomplished so much... and have amazing results...
Bless ❤
You both are very loveable people ❤
Thankyou
Sad loss of Ducks. Glad you help so many ppl. You both work hard and support each other which is good for all to see. Hope you have a great week😊
You are a lovely generous man with your skills and time!😀
Looked up your storm "Nelson", seems to have run the gamut. Wind, rain and snow in the mountains. Not even a storm keeps you from getting things done. Sorry about the fox attack.
Sorry for you loss. We love you very much. 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Beautiful work on the big house
Sorry to hear about your ducklings, all the best to you both.
Very, very sad about the ducklings and am pleased to see not only my pigs test fences!
You both are just magic! Sorry for the ducklings.
Love the sound of the wind!
Hi, Andrea and Nick. I’m so sorry about the loss of the ducklings😔
Part of the vicious side of nature😢. You all provide the best for your stock and all the outbuildings look so natural to the environment. Best wishes.❤
Oh, no! 😮 I am so sorry to hear about the ducklings.
I just wanna compliment you again and how you have changed the intro to your videos. It’s so enjoyable. A big thank you for taking Dan and Laura under your wing as well. You and Ange are such splendid people. ❤️
Storm Nelsons preferable to the music. Nature is the best😊
Ange's vegetable garden is looking great. You both have had a very arduous week, but the farm is benefiting.
Hope the next week will bring sunshine in your lives
so sorry for the loss of your sweet ducklings...hope, Mama Duck will recover soon!
You two work so so hard, giving you my mental medal of honor❤❤
Sorry about the ducklings! Very sad! Thanks for sharing your life with us. See you next time.
I am sorry for the loss of your ducklings. 🙏💗🙏
😢 poor baby duckling. What terrible weather you have had. Andrea nearly blown away, naughty little pigs escaping! I bet the orange drizzle cake made up for it all, it looked delicious 😋
I'm so sorry about the loss of your ducklings. It must have been so upsetting. You can make clotted cream at home. My grand mother used to make it with fresh (from the cow) cows milk. 🙂👍👍🇨🇦
oh no poor ducklings they were so adorable, hope the female duck will recover soon, hugs x
Sorry about your ducklings! Hard work does pay off! Looking great!
superman can overcome any challenge :D
Brilliant but sad one… you achieved so much in that wind though and made my mouth water with your orange cake. X
I am so sorry for your lost of the ducklings. Dam fox. Hope he stay away from the piglets. Nice long interesting video thanks
So sorry for the lose of the ducklings, you can see how devastated you both were xxxx ❤❤❤❤
God bless and protect you and all your animals and homestead!
I think your little pallet animal shelters are so wonderful and with the wooden cladding they really do take on a quaint quality.
Very sorry about the ducklings. Seems there is always sadness in the triumphs. I'm sure you both and the duck mom are feeling a little empty, but life will go on. The cake seems perfect for Easter. Thanks.
Ange was right. It's called pulp! :)
Yep, you are both right😆
Good for you, that you made a skirt around the duck shelter, so no predators can dig under the horizontal part
Hopefully mom will lay another clutch soon! And you guys can keep them safe at night! ❤ Condolences! 😢
I cannot believe the crazy winds you are getting! I was concerned Andrea would blow away with the pen! What a crazy scarey storm, and there you two are, out there working in it, protecting your dear animals.❤❤
Your orange cake looks so delicious 😋
Sad for your ducklings. But moving the blue tarp enclosure, hilarious! BRAVO FOR THE ENTIRE VIDEO DUE TO WEATHER! HAPPY EASTER! ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸🇵🇹👣🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🤗
So sorry about the ducklings! Love seeing Max. 😍🇨🇦
So sorry about the ducklings. Last week watching the Newbies they lost all their chickens. Take care
🦢 So sorry about the ducklings...they are so beautiful with their flat round end yellow beak 😢
Sorry for your difficult week but you always make the best of it👍 When you and Ange were carrying the duck house you looked like 4 legged blue polyesterized African beetles😅
I am so sorry about the ducklings! Love the pig house made couture of pallets
Tears 😂 just sad for mum dad babies ❤❤❤ y’all must be popular these days. The commercials are so long and so many..[; but worth waiting through U2 are the animals in plants lol look great thanks for sharing
Max is a trooper....🐕. Uncomplaining, just glad to have a great doggy home and family ❤
Ange❤ Extreme...dedication👍
Moving the blue duck house you can see the point mother nature steps up her game and makes it just hard enough to be hard work but not so bad as you leave it for another day. I'm really sorry about the ducklings, again mother nature knows how to test us. No shortage of Vit C in the cake, I bet that tasted amazing..
Oh no 😢I am so sorry to hear you lost your ducklings to a predator, 😢sending you both higsss, on a goos note, the new pen looks amazing & Andrea's cake looked delicious 😋, take care both of you ❤❤❤❤❤
Mmmmmm I can smell the oranges. 😄👋⭐️⭐️
You have mongoose foxes weasels and I'm sorry you lost your babies surprised it came around with your dog
What a week of animal antics……sad about poor ducklings!
Fantastic all round video. Loved the extreme gardening 😂 I thought Angela was going to take off with maxes shelter, Mary Poppins 😂. Great to see you, Dan and Laura working their roof. I’ll be heading over to watch them as their vids up👍 the orange cake looks delicious, let us know if it tastes as good as it looks 🤩😋. Sorry to hear about your beautiful little ducklings 🐥 big hugs to you both 😢
Awh sorry for those ducklings hopefully you will get some more raised soon xxx
Of. Yes. So sorry about your ducks. It's tough when these things happen.
Oh guy's, so sorry about the ducklings. Onwards and upwards, it's all that you can do
Turned right too bloody quick 😂
So sorry you lost the ducklings to a predator. I had a good laugh. Just like a man to put his finger in the jam. lol ✌🏻❤️🙏🏻
To orangey for crows ..
Just for me and my dog .. the old adverts are the best 😊
Nick and Andrea, it would be amazing to see some of your longer projects in one video, beginning to end. For Eg, the coolroom build ... . Homestead life always means doing what you can when you can, and so project completion in one week rarely possible.
So sad about the ducklings 😢
So sorry been there. Lost many a chicken and ducks to critters.
The pig house looks good nice job poor Angie nearly got blown away sorry about the duckling so sad heart breaking
I'll come back. You reminded me off what I am supposed to be doing right now. All the best.
So sorry about the ducks 😢xx
Love the intro 👌🏻 sorry to hear about the ducklings ❤❤❤
Oh so sorry about the ducklings.😢😢 What a wind and rain. Hope it is going to be better weather soon. See you soon. 😊😘
What a week you've had....but, the cake made it somewhat better.
Wildlife will find the weakest point and... Lessons learned. Loss of young ducklings is hard when you see them grow. It's not only foxes that roam. Great video though.
Angie, next time turn the pan upside down put the the paper over it bend it to the shape of the pan, then turn the pan back to correct position and put the formed paper into the pan !!!!!
The planet would stop turning if Roddas Clotted Cream ever went out of production.
Also. If Gayes Creamery ever shut her doors. Dawlish.
So sorry to hear about the ducklings. 😪 I must try and make that orange cake it looked amazing.😋
Your orange cake looks delicious and I totally agree that clotted cream is the way to go.
Sad news about the ducklings.
Giving the Rocks a haircut😅😅
Terrible Stormy weather,it was dangerous aswell for you Angie.
I am sorry for the loss of the ducklings,must be a fox.
Doesn't Max guard at night? He must have heard something.
Dogs can't hear in the strong wind
Oh my, that orange cake was tantalising!
So very sorry about the ducklings, Max must have been beside himself when he heard their cries! Praying for Mama duck's swift recovery, do you think she will try to have more babies, or do they only nest once a year?
Thank you for the video, it is good that you show that farm life can be heartbreaking as well as back breaking, it's not always a Disneyesque life of sunshine and moonbeams!
great team!!
Terribly sorry for your loss, I hate it when thieves come in and steal. But your pallets on the pig's house look awesome. Wow, your wind looks like ours here in Illinois. Cheers 👍👍🍻
staying busy, as usual.
Andrea I swear I could smell your glorious cake from Reno, Nevada!❤
It is truly hard work running a small holding farm, you two remind me constantly of my growing up, with the effort my Mum and Dad put into our approx 10 acres, sorry to see your ducklings were taken it is always heartbreaking. Angela you had quite a battle with the duck enclosure and the wind. My Mum and Dad would have been very impressed with your pig houses too Nick. I thought however that screws had to go in the high ridge of the iron not the valleys to stop the roofs from leaking .
These screws have a rubber washer on them
That looks great Nick, well done 👏👏👏
👍😉🇨🇮☘️Eire
Have a good weekend Nik and Andrea!!!
Lovely video ❤
Oh no 😢maybe a liftstock guardian dog
Hi if you crinkle your parchment paper then oil it it will stay in place a bit easier just make the paper into a ball then put it in pan
How very sad about the ducklings! Any idea what got them? Great loss. Lucky pigs and lucky Max to be safe in their secure homes!
Definitely a fox
So very sorry for the ducklings. Now Wayne and Waynetta have their own duck Firt Knox, good work.
The new pig house looks great, too. It'll be shelter to some lucky kune kunes sooner or later. Rascally boi escaper! 😄
You both really gave excellent examples of extreme gardening -- Ang planting in the fierce winds, Nick rototilling with mind-of-its-own tiller at a 55° angle!
Gorgeous cake, Coukd nearly smell it 🍊! Hope you filmed you tucking into it with the clotted cream. Sad that wasn't added to the end of making it 😭.
