That log cabin is going to be the envy of the neighbourhood. Good job, little Hollars. 🥰
It makes my heart smile just seeing how you two look at each other. There is so much love and respect between you. Thank you for sharing yourselves with us.
No doubt! Love to see that!
I think that too ,
Allways smiling so happy ,
They make me smile ,and feel happy ,
They have that effect on u dont they
‘It’s okay, girlfriend, I got you.’ 😂😂😂😂 I’m dying
My grandfather use to say. "One HUNGRY Mama pig and her babies could clear enough land to grow food for a family of 8 a year." Rotation was his key to land management. (45 acre farm in Northern MN). You grow on what the pigs cleared LAST year. He also always said. "Grow the way animals graze and you will never starve."
I think based on the hackle (neck) feathers being pointed that that hen is a rooster. I couldn't see the saddle feathers to compare but a hen has rounded feather around her neck ad at the tail. I have one leghorn and she is very flighty and she lays a white egg almost every day and she is 4 years old. They are much lighter than duel breed but that just means they eat less. I do not have kudzu on our place but an old timmer said that it makes great compost and adds minerals because its roots are so deep and it grows so fast. Love ya! Hugs!!! We always want more but we will always take what we get because ya'll still have a homestead to finish building along with everything ya'll do to help Justin. Ya'll are loved!
Stop being so hard on yourselves you haven't been there that long and your trying to do too many projects at once. Pigs, chickens, soap, knives, garden, redoing your home. I get exhausted just listening to you list your projects.😜 As for video once a week is good. Anyway your boys are awesome building their own cabin looks like they know what they're doing good healthy learning experience. Remember when my boys did the same 30 years ago ( built in our woods) and it's still standing they use it for deer season. Blessings to all.😊🇺🇸
Wonderful to see the boys under taking this. However, I think the notch has to go on the underside of the log otherwise water collects in the bowl shape of the notch if it is on the top side of the log and the log will rot sooner.
9:10 when lincoln logs just arent cutting it anymore. Lol
There’s ALWAYS way more stuff to do than time. All you can do is your best, prioritize the most important, release the rest. On a positive note, sharing your struggles encourages other folks to recognize it’s not just them-we all struggle with the balance of time and stuff to do.
i dont care how many vloggs you make i will watch them all hugssss from Ont. Canada
tammy sarrazin - Hi Tammy, I'm in Ont. too! I agree, the Hollar's are such a fun couple/family to watch. I pray that they get a break on their finances so that they can hire some help to make their lives easier. The entire family deserves it.
Hi you two I'm from norther BRITISH COLUMBIA. Still under snow her and -20 so need to wait a but to plant anything.
@@lindastrandquist2429 - Hello Fellow Canadian. Sorry to hear that you're freezing your butts off in B.C.
We're lucky, it's 37 degrees Fahrenheit here in Toronto today with a low of 24 at night. Hang in there, spring is around the corner, then you can plant to your hearts content. Stay safe. Stay healthy.
Don't you just luv the Hollar's. I pray that God grants them prosperity and people to help them. They deserve it. Their kids are so polite and helpful. Lovely family.
Thanks for another video hope you have an awesome afternoon. I always like to see what's going on you guys always surprise me.
Ben makes me think of my great uncle whom ever time you went to his house he would come out of the milk barn and his arms would be covered with blue lotion ever cut. He's been gone now for alot of year's he was a good man.. thanks for a good memory.. God speed.
I am addicted to your videos! :) My future husband also checks out yt every single day to see if you uploaded a video, even if he knows that it is not possible for you to do video a day :) :) But We totally understand that you live your lives and you are not obliged to do that :) We are so happy that we discovered your channel and that we can watch you grow (not only crops hehehe). You are lovely family and you are sharing a lot of positivity with this world
"Girl got her nails did" you guys are so funny...
I'm glad you guys are back I have missed yall xxx
Man, that is a great plan. Keep the pigs hungry and let them control the brush. Co-exist and every creature is ultra happy!!!
Love how you are working with your budget, and working with what you have. So many people don't and end up in trouble! It will come in time, your doing a great job. Weather sometimes doesn't help, but you get through it. Then in the middle of it you have to take one to the spa to get it's nails done. It was so relaxed in your arms. We are here for you, and if you can't post for what ever reason, we will still be here, as we love ya! That cabin the kids are doing will be so cool when done! No matter how long it takes. Always look forward to checking in on your family to see that you are ok. Your kids sure have learned a skill from you! Way to go Hollar family.
I LOVE your boys! They are terrific...quiet, helpful, and very respectful! Baby girl is special, too...learning each day and can talk now! You two are very blessed. You must be happy with the property you found, as it has so many buildings, including your home! I think it’s beautiful, as are you two...and your beautiful family!!!
Love everything y'all are doing! Git it little Hollar men. Ya'll are absolutely amazing!
Time to open a nail salon for chickens😉......LOL
Your place is coming along nicely! I totally understand waiting on the monthly budget in order to buy supplies. We've been doing the same thing. Just finished 4 raised garden beds, lined them with cardboard, old tree limbs, and just purchased a soil compost mixture to be delivered next week. Then I'll be able to plant seeds after the last frost.
Good job all! Boys are keeping busy working together and mom and dad are getting things done! I miss the cooking vlogs. 🥰
So proud of ya'll for keeping it to budget and pacing yourselves
A video once a week is good enough, you are busy and trying to get yourselves sorted out, what with pigs, gardening, putting up fencing, chickens etc etc and home schooling, the list is endless. I love the way your boys are building their own cabin, looks like they know what they're doing. Just now you can get them to build log cabins for a work shop for you or laundry cabin they are getting so good at it. Can not wait to see the finish of their cabin. I think it was so funny seeing you paint the chickens nails, you handled the hen with so much care..Have a great day,
The chicken was so comfortable. Lol Thanks for sharing keep that Dream alive. The boys has been watching their talented Dad way to ho boys. 💓🙏
You two are fabulous!! You are a team. You give each other such encouragement every day.
Ben you are the luckiest guy in North Carolina to have such a lovely, exuberant, joyous bride.
Your good boys will never forget for all of their days making that log cabin.
Holler Homestead is filled with love.
We had a runner duck that was stepped on by one of our horses nearly three weeks ago. Broke the leg very bad, but we set the bone and have been nursing it back to health ever since -- including water therapy (it's our daughter's pet). The things people go through for a $3.00 bird 😊, but the duck made it just fine.
I would focus on the mobile home you need to have it done by next winter. 4 to 5 months would be good estimate. And the garden. 40 years ago when we were homesteading we learned to prioritize income, Food, home, then fun Do what you need the most first etc. Good luck
Yeah, you have to keep those spurs in check because they damage the hens. I've had hens with holes in their sides before I realized what was causing it.
You’re looking more relaxed So glad. Loving the fun of this video. God Bless
Keep a tube of Superglue around. It will perform like a suture. It's used in hospitals all the time. It will reattach or seal off the nail until the bleeding stops. I have Easter Eggers that are bred out of Brown Leghorns....yea, they're a bit jumpy. They're very smart and sweet girls when they settle in. Treats are the way to their hearts.
We bought a fixer a few years ago. It involved a complete gut, plumbing and electrical. DH worked before and after work and on weekends. It took over a YEAR and MORE money than we planned on. You're doing great-take it easy on yourself!
Thank you for the info about the broken nail. My rooster broke his this morning. Same thing, blood everywhere. I don't have the blue kote and my farm store didn't have any a few days ago when I was in. But will check again tomorrow.....Again, thanks so much. You are doing great job on the construction project!
Love the boys log cabin! Great experience.
nice little log cabin the kids are building. those roots are crazy!
I love seeing your projects in the barn I love before and after videos and I thank you for sharing your family with me and building your farm. God bless you thank you.
Love u all. Great connection with the Rhodes , Sow the Land and all those I failed to mention. Keep up the good work. My heart is with you.
Omg seeing your boys in their element, and you letting them be boys in their element is so heart warming.. It filled my heart with joy to see them building a log cabin. Not to mention knowing or understanding that is how it use to be done. Love it, love it, love it.👍💯
Hey you guys spring is on it way,garden time,one idea you might try is a cold frame.I have one right now with seeds starting.I just used some old windows and 2 by 5s facing south.Worked for me last year to.
Hey you guys. It is okay that you are not able to do everything and be everything. You are trying to get your home finished and so many other things. I am amazed at what you have already accomplished. Don't forget to enjoy each day, you are both great.
Your youth and vitality are treasures. The way you are using your time is priceless. Someday you will look back on your adventures and thank God you followed your hearts. Don’t stress too much about the things you can’t do or haven’t done - that’ll just wear you out.
You won’t believe the flavor and size of Cornish Crosses! The mammoth way they grow is just fun to watch. Then a couple of months after you harvest, you look in the freezer, and you have these giant, unbelievably tasty, birds to thaw out and devour. You are doing fine!
Great video. Loved the boys construction 🔨 You should be so proud.
Did you have to get another freezer?
❤️💙💙💙💙💙
Yes, we found a giant one at the Habitat Restore for $40 😍
Have your boys seen the channel My self Reliance where the guy builds his own log cabin in the woods? Now he and his wife live there full time.
I LOVE that show and think the boys would also. So much to learn by watching.
Or The Outsider or Boss of the Swamp.
you need a cheap tracker with a bucket on it clear out some of the hills and move it to the standing water areas and more.
Pretty nails! 😆 I am loving your progress. You both have come so far with your farm. Thanks for sharing your lives with us.
Amazing how calm and peaceful that chicken is in your arms and while you are caring for her,
Whenever I had to trim my cats nails it was a hassle
I cannot imagine having the list of things you guys are working on. I struggle to get a load of laundry done once every couple days! I AM, however, happy to see all of your faces in today's video. You are such a great team, and your boys are keeping busy by the looks of things. Their cabin is looking amazing!
Keep smiling, stay positive and I look forward to seeing you when your next video/vlog comes up.
xoxox Heather🇨🇦
I'm not even 10.mins in and gigglin my head off I'm stuck in bed atm got the winter flu all way from uk made me smile so much ........gurll got her nails did 😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤩🤩🤩🐓🐓🐓 thank you lols
Hope you get well soon!
@@JamieSantos thank you me too hate been poorly
Get well soon....= D
Ben, I feel your pain. I am constantly moving stuff so I can work on the project that I have time and money for. I call my life, Jenga. Constantly pulling stuff out and fitting stuff into spaces, trying to keep the whole thing from crashing down. I built a new shed, knocked down the old shed and loaded it into the pickup because there was nowhere else to put it. Now the truck won't start. More fun.Thanks for sharing your life with us. You guys rock!
Great video, piglets have certainly grown. Boys I can see love the great outdoors. Your making great process. Love your happy dispositions. Take care, xxx
I am fixing up the house on our new homestead before we move in, in September. With traveling back and forth from Japan, it is slow going. You will get it done, and it will be wonderful in the end. You have made so much progress on it since the beginning. I just have to say, your boys are so creative and happy to be outside. I struggle with my kids and video games, but that will change when we move onto the homestead and the internet is nonexistent 😉. I may even mark some trees for them too 😂😁😉! Love seeing those videos from you guys ❤️
I just have to say something...I LOVE how GRACIOUS you both are with each other. No blaming, just sharing how life is happening and it's OKAY to be off schedule. If we all could learn to be gracious with everyone, family, friends and strangers, oh how much better things would be! Thanks for posting whenever you can. This expat momma misses her home country, and although we used to live in the Ozarks region, you're making me fall in love with your area!! Blessings from the UAE!! (Have your boys look up Abu Dhabi for their geography lesson! We're next door to Dubai!)
Your boys are AWESOME. Thanks for sharing. I am starting my first REAL garden this Spring and I hope to someday get up the courage to get chickens. You guys keep me inspired. I look forward to your posts.
Too funny! Always looking forward to your next video! We have had all sorts of animals in our lifetime, raised kids, and now renovating (seems like forever not having a home) a small place. Looking forward to chickens again. We have had many of the frustrations, ups and downs and joy that you have shared. Keep going, you are doing great! ❤
slow down and enjoy the journey, you guys are super busy, do what you can and not over do it...... you both make a great team and are getting things done and up and running.. many blessings for your journey.
Zebulon North Carolina understands and loves y'all. Keep growing.
Shaun White , and New Bern
Really admire all you young couples taking on the homestead and since I can't do much anymore it's my pastime entertainment.
Don't let negative folks get under your skin. You're doing fine. Nobody is perfect.
Good to see your videos when you have time. I’m glad to see them when they show up. 😊
God bless y’all and stay safe, thank you for sharing what you are accomplishing! Great job!
No more excuses, you guys are awesome! You have so many projects, i can only cheer in your corner ! So stay encouraged and keep moving forward! God Bless you guys always, 😊🥰🥰🥰🥰👍💖
Hey guys. No worries about taking time with things. Life goes along and things will happen eventually. It’s always a pleasure catching your updates. Love the boys cabin building. What a great life you are giving them. ❤️
Y'all made my day with the chicken manicure and rained-in humor. I live in the Deep South as well, so felt like I was going to be rowing in my back yard this morning and paddling down the interstate today. THANK YOU for being you and making us laugh along with you! p.s. I wrote too soon...my grown sons would LOVE your knives...will be waiting and watching for your hand-crafted products as gifts are needed!
Walk and talks are some of my favorite videos from you! Great update!
Hey. Things happen. I just got a project done which only took a couple weeks but getting to start was my problem. I had to shift a lot of stuff and rearrange stuff and then put it back so I know where you're coming from (and where you're going). It took me about 2 years to get mine started!!!
I have 2 leghorns 1 brown and 1 white. They both fly over the run fence to get out. Daily! But they also fly to get back in so I dont worry too much about them. I keep them around for their superb egg laying. Lol keep up the great work ya'll!! We really enjoy your videos!! Thanks for your time!
I check every little bit to see new videos. You all are doing the hard work - where I’m only watching the video. Enjoyable when there’s a new one.
Be encouraged beautiful people. 💞 we love your story and we love watching YOUR journey. ❤️❤️❤️
You could also put them in where your going to garden, free labour for the veg garden.....
Thanks for the update, the knives look great, and your doing great when you stop and look at what you have done and are doing.
Love your videos,and glad to hear you'll be bringing out more. Check out the boys cabin site, from the brief view you let us have, the saddle notches are being done right. I am amazed how the pigs rooted out that much kudzu, that stuff is terrible.
Chicken manicure🤣 Can't wait to purchase one those knives! Hope to see the final build of the boys cabin. Those piglets are cute laying on mom. 🐖 looking forward to purchasing more of your products, Meg. Y'all have a lot on your plate but it sounds like it is coming together. 👍😃 ~ Lisa
blue kote geez its like the purple water line sealer you can't even open the jar without it getting on you. the mani/pedi part was cute. I showed my hubby the video you did where you showed ua the knives you made and that big one with the gorgeous wood, hubs said find out what it cost, he wants me to buy a knife from you. So I'm looking forward to you selling more. I am about 4 weeks out from our last frost. I like your vids about the pigs. I love learning more about what all they can do to improve things on the homestead. thnx for sharing I love your channel.
... Ben blowin' on that 🐔giiiirlz🐔..wet "nails" was just the sweetest thing...
Ben"I am NOT blowing on her nails".... every body ALL together now....Awweeeeeeee....
such sweet down to earth folks
keep at it y'all... we'll see ya' when we see ya' ☮️&🌱's
Good to see you making headway out there in the country.
Love the Chickdashian...lol...the pigs are too funny! Amazing that kudzu root! Kudzu is edible. Your knives are awesome. So are Meg's products. The boys are doing an amazing job on their cabin. Y'all are awesome!❤🍀🇮🇪
You both seem so much more happy and cheerful, the humour just shines from this episode. Your ‘time off’ over the years end has obviously recharged your batteries! Love seeing your chickens, I used to have a flock of ex-battery shed layers, when I took new ones in they quite often were missing large areas of feathers, especially on their heads from rubbing on the top of the cage. Our New Zealand sun can be fierce and they made the most of the opportunity to sunbathe. And what do sunbathers need? Sunscreen! We had to use very high factor sunscreen everyday until their feathers grew back. It was definitely a two person job, wriggly chickens and slippery sunscreen really don’t play well together. It was funny, but satisfying seeing them with brightly coloured sunblock on their heads!
I love seeing what your new lifestyle gives your boys. Most kids these days are scheduled and regulated all the time time. (And I get why - I’m not criticizing.) Its just wonderful seeing kids decide, completely on their own, to build a cabin and making it happen. Looks like they’re doing a good job too. Much love and best wishes from your old hometown. 😊❤️🥰
I for one think you guys are moving right along. Keep in mind how the property looked when you first saw it and how it looks now. You all have come a long way. Are you where you want to be no but take a hint, you will never be there. It is the journey not the destination. Love how your boys are taking the cabin by the poles, great work guys. Of course we who sit and watch want more but there again we too will never be satisfied so you just need to satisfy you as we will never be satisfied but we will live.
You two are just so cute. I loved when you were in your future home and discussing picking up the camera… We out here really do understand.. You have a lot of people who have lived pretty much no other way so we get it with out having ever tried.. to vlog it...I for one along with many are glad that you do when you do and Ben we like to see you vlog even if it is just riding to town.. You both are just like a couple of friends.. God Bless all of you!
I love it whenever you post a video!! Spring is getting close in No. AZ. So excited. Just be you. Share when you can. Love your Lil Fam...
You two make me giggle! I love watching how you handle the anything that can and will happen on the homestead i look forward to every post! thank you so much
G'day. Nice to see you all again. Tyfs. Was lovely n amusing visiting with you again. God bless you all.
Happy that you guys are going to put out more videos. Looking forward to mee you all at shindig!
You guys are doing great, especially with all that you have going on!! Very positive and practical!!
I believe you are doing great!!! Love your channel!!! Been watching for awhile, what a great family!! I'm old lady 63 don't be so hard on yourself. You all are doing just fine!!
It’s good to see you having fun with your homestead. You’ll get where you want to be in time. I have faith in you.
It’s great to watch your vlogs no matter when they show up thanks for sharing❤️❤️❤️🐷🐖🐥
So much positive growth for you guys, things are coming along well for you.
Fun video🤗 Would love everyday vids but you have to do whatever is needed.Will wait for them🦋Thx for sharing your life with us.
Please film more! We're interested in what yall do everyday with chores and regular life at the homestead.
Hey HOLLARS! It's like seeing friends/ good people you haven't seen for a short bit when I get notifications you've put a new video/ vlog up! Always nice to see whatever you had a short minute to bring us into your world! Happy to watch whenever! I love the light your new windows add in, its gonna be great when you're finished. Thanks y'all. Hugs all around 🤗♥️
p.s. the boys are having a great time being boys 😊😊
Everything is coming along well. That log cabin your boys are building is awesome! Keep on keeping on you guys... ;)
I am loving the boys and their inginuity.
When I was ten, our parents bought 22 acres and built a Camp. That Christmas we 3 kids got hatchets and bow saws for Christmas. We were told we could cut any tree we wanted ( poplar and balm of gilead). Our stumps were three feet tall. Still, we cleared some land.
I seem to recall an old farm house on this property. You could set up the soap factory and seasoning space there and it would not get in the way of all the other stuff Y'all are up to. Looking good though.
Not sure which part I enjoyed most of this episode! How to reserve one of those beautiful knives! Really awesome progress!!
YAY! Got to see my Hollars today!!! The boys are growing like weeds. Great job on the cabin and Keep Up The Good Work Little Men. Meg and Ben, y'all look fabulous too.. Given' that Momma a manicure... and Ben paintin' her nails.. Too funny. I literally can't wait to see your next videos... I've literally gone back and binge watched all of them again...LOL.. Got me hooked Y'all... God Bless Y'all and gotta love those Carolina rains... 💖💖💖
its so impressive how calm she is sitting for you while you're washing off her foot !
Wow you have some very talented boys there makeing there own home
You guys are awesome all the time! Love to see you anytime you feel like filming. My most favorite chicken is Golden Comets. I didn't know Leghorns were that calm. Great to know.
That is so awsome seeing those children actually doing what we used to do when i was a kid. You are great parents.
What BEAUTIFUL memories your sons are making!!!! Also, wondering about the old house for your soaps & seed starting? Since it needs a lot of repairs, thinking a future greenhouse is a better idea? Blessings to you all!
You guys are doing just great! Love all the things you have going on. The pigs are so cute!! Greetings from Wisconsin. Karen
My dog does this about 3-5 times a year because she runs around like a wild woman. 😊 A Vet told me to wash the nail and dip it in Cornmeal to stop the bleeding. Works pretty well and no chemical bad stuff if she licks it.
Your chickens are beautiful 💝🙏💪
Blu-kote, I'll take notes! Thanks😊
Fyi a toddler size sock works great for a dog paw if they ever need their paw wrapped and padded.
Happy 2020🎉
