My goodness guys, you do an awesome job, don't feel pushed for content, we love whatever you show, have always loved this channel. God bless and Happy Mothers Day.
Exactly what I was going to say! 🙂 I keep up with the weather, mostly where the tornadoes are, so I know y'all have been having it rough. Love your channel and keep up the awesome work.
I came to the comments to say the same thing. In their last video when they described cleaning up the farm and the scrap metal but it wasn’t camera worthy, I thought “goodness I’d watch that too”! Where here for you both, not just your content.
Just a few days after my mother-in-law died, my husband who was extremely close (as I and our son) a grown Silkie just showed up at our property. We checked with the ‘closest’ neighbors and no one claimed the beautiful white Silkie. Silkie followed my husband every where. He would often be found sitting alongside our fire pit, with it going, and Silkie right there beside him ~ giving him much needed comfort in a way only an animal can give. It was such an incredible gift from God in a time of deep hurt and loss. We had Silkie for almost 3 weeks before an owl, unfortunately, claimed it’s next meal as Silkie came down early one morning from roosting. I have often thought it’s time to actually put together an area with cover from above! for a few Silkies 5 years in from that experience. I like Kevin’s practical gift - and the listening and acting upon what he heard. Wow! Though!
Parts of the USA are getting more rain than they need and others are in a drought. Prayers that all are safe and eventually the weather will improve. Thank you for the videos you are able to put out. Happy Mother’s Day to all and to single dads who are raising their families, God Bless.
I love your silkies!. They are just adorable and will look great running around. I think everyone understands that Mother Nature has plans of her own. Can't wait to see what's ahead for you guys. Take care!
Moving from CA to TN, I feel so blessed to be in a state that’s GREEN all the time, but it does mean storms! Then it gets warm & the grass grows inches in a day, but you can’t mow cause the ground is so wet 😂. Anyway, just do what you can & enjoy those new babies…so cute
Life happens, right? That’s one of the things I like best about your videos, it shows life in real time for homesteaders. I enjoy watching your projects on the Homestead or the farm, but I also enjoy the chats in the Q&A‘s and the little bits of wisdom that come here and there. I also have to see how much I have enjoyed and used many of your cooking and baking videos. Kevin‘s bagels are the best! And I have learned so much about canning, processing tomatoes, and other vegetables from you Sarah. You guys are a treasure!
Many years ago My Mother bought Bantam hens. They were fluffy white and great pets. We had baby kittens whose Mother passed away and these Bantam Hens Mothered the baby kittens. It was so funny to watch them following the mothering hens as they were teaching the kittens to scratch around in the grass. The kittens slept under the fluffy feathers. Wonderful and gentle chickens. The males are a different story.
Kevin, Thank you so much for sharing all your innovations for feeding and watering the quail. You are so resourceful! Happy Mother's Day Sarah and love those little Silky chicks!
I’ve been reading all the encouraging comments viewers have left for you! You can see how much we love and respect you! May the Lord continue to bless you...even in all this rain! I live in the Northwest where we have webbed feet...so I understand what rainy, windy, cloudy days can do to our mental health. I see lots of soul sunshine coming from your hearts! 😎
I live in Phoenix, was thinking I wish there were a way to save some of that excess rain out our direction. We could sure use it! Living in a small mobile home in the city, I don’t even try to do any container gardening but I enjoy watching your videos and wishing.
Mother Nature has sure been testing our patients this year!! We’ve had Extra Wild Wind!! Things are dry and dusty and the noise is starting to drive me crazy!! Seeing your beautiful shelves of jars in your Silkie brooder area made me wonder what your pantry and food storage is like. Maybe a video on how you do that would be Great! If it’s not perfect and organized all the better - real life and all😉 Hang in there!!
Happy Mother's Day Sarah. Love the Silkies, they are adorable...🥰 The weather is not great all over the place it seems. I live in Vancouver, Canada, and we got an entire months worth of rain the first week of May, so I feel your pain. Please don't stress out about content. If you feel you must put out a video, your recipes are always a welcome treat. 💖
No worries guy’s. You’re amazing. Take as much time as you need. Love the new chick’s, so cute. Kevin, you’re so creative with the modifications you made on the feeders and watering system. Perfect! I love the cage setup. I going to go back a search you’re videos on the construction of them. I’m sure you did one on making them. Cheers, happy Mother’s Day Sarah
Things are going on in my life and family right now, that may not always be good. Your videos on Wednesday and Saturdays give me a little bit of an escape. Always look forward to watching!
You two have great content that is unlike other homesteaders that I watch. Your calm nature exudes through your channel and right through my device. When I watch your channel I am not left feeling anxious. Rather my mind is clear and I am able to take notes, be inspired, and feel that I can do it too. I'm in SC, near the Georgia boarder. We have had so much rain, hail, and wind. I understand your struggles. On a side note: I love your cooking and preserving videos. We are saving for a freeze dryer currently. I can't wait to go back and try your experiments with the freeze dryer.
You two are very hard workers and we LOVE everything you do and appreciate you sharing your lives with us. We are all in the same boat right now. God Bless
Oh no! Please don't get discouraged ya'll. 😁🙏 Every video is a surprise to us and we simply love watching them. Great job Kevin. Those chicks are so darn cute. 🥰 See now you made us excited to wait and see the next video. Just be safe and best wishes. Just always remember that God gives us what He thinks we need. Happy Mothers Day 💃💐💙🙏
I just love watching your videos whenever and whatever you put out. Just do your things and take us along for the ride once in a while and we’ll keep watching! 😉
Wow, that's a crazy amount of RAIN! Here in western Massachusetts USA we have no rain in the forecast for the next 10 days or so. All year so far we have been an inch or more below the monthly average. April was about 1.4 inches below normal. I feel bad for farmers who depend on natural rain for their crops. The Silkies are adorable, not the very strange looking ones. And they fit in your plans of improving your independence. What a nice Mothers day present. Thanks for bringing us these videos, I love seeing the piglets. I especially used to see you let out the runner ducks. They were so cute. Thanks!
Regarding the last minute or two… Oh my goodness, no apologies necessary! I have come to love you two, love your content, and have learned so much from you. You are an inspiration to me. Thank you so much for sharing your lives with us. Stopping right now to ask God’s continued blessing and protection for you and your family. Much love to you from me here in Texas. 💜
Happy Mother's Day!!! Love Silkies😊 I feel your pain dealing with rain (lots of it), severe wind, and tornadoes (14 tornadoes on Thursday here). Our ground can't keep up with all the water. Our grass was cut on the last sunny day. It needs cutting again, it's too long (the ground is too wet to cut). I worry about my garden with all the moisture. Yesterday, I get to go out and check my garden boxes (the first real pretty day)to see what has survived our crazy weather.
Both of you are amazing teachers, I've passed your channel information to friends and families who are struggling. Your honesty regarding homesteading no matter experience or size is wonderful. Don't be discouraged... your golden nuggets are invaluable! Happy Mother's Day, continue your blessed journey. 🙏
Your problem is not just in Missouri. Poor Australians are flooded and their crops are completely ruined. Praying for everyone dealing with bad weather situations across the world. We love you guys and praying for your better life outdoors.❤️👍🙏🇺🇸
Living in a high desert, I can’t even imagine that much rain… you get more in a day than we do in a whole spring season! But really, don’t be discouraged, watching your previous content is also very helpful!!
Rain here too! Under another flood warning. Just do what you can to survive! Don’t worry about filming for us. We will always be here. Have a wonderful Mother’s day Sara!
After watching your videos I got 48 eggs and an incubator and hatched some eggs. I built a cage like yours and a plastic tub brooder to be ready when they hatched. I now have 30 chicks out of 41 eggs. Quail really grow fast. After several failures, I made a feeder like yours and problem solved. I have been watching your videos for years now and have been helped greatly even though I live in the USVI on St. Croix. We are mostly a desert island and heat and drought is the norm. We really need your rain. Thanks for all your work.
Happy Mother's Day, Sarah. we totally understand about the rain. we are in Northern Arkansas and we have been getting alot too. We came from a place that never gets rain. We SWORE that we would never complain about the rain... but now here we are saying," I need some sunshine! When is this rain gonna stop!"
Kevin you probably don’t think this about yourself but you’re really very talented at coming up with amazing, problem-solving designs for animal housing, feeding, and watering! Just absolutely brilliant designs! Thank you for sharing them with us!!!! I will be making these feeders and watered for my quail immediately!
Think about the rain! It’s a time of rest. Knowing you guys you are planners and using this time for the next step. Your chicks are the cutest. Can’t wait to see them grow. Love in Christ, Blessing!
Calm down relax going to be here no matter what yall are my tele vision now you're worst day is still great keep on doing what you're doing what you're doing love yall god bless
We know life & weather play a big roll for all of us. Don’t worry about the content we love what ever you put up. Blessings to you and the family. You teach us really good things. 😘
Sarah doesn't want flowers or candies or kitten or puppy...She wants cute chickens! TRUE WIFE OF A GREAT HOMESTEADER! GOD BLESS KEVIN & SARAH! HAVE A VERY BLESSED MOTHER"S DAY! :)
No need to apologize or feel guilty for not putting out the content you want to give us. You do an amazing job. I've been getting over 3 inches of rain some days here in Washington. I completely understand. Happy Mother's day and enjoy your cute little fluff balls.
Man Kevin I love the notifications on the feeder and waterers on the quail cages. I have a cage very similar to yours and have the same struggles. I feel this will be a great solution for me also
Understand your weather woes. But from the opposite perspective! We live west of Phoenix in Buckeye…we have the wind, but are praying for the monsoons to start before we shrivel up and blow away…too bad you can’t send us some of your rain! Just hang in there, and so will we. Your videos are always a joy… please don’t stop! You’d be surprised what a wonderful sight rain sliding down windows can be…oh wait! You remember, don’t you?🤣😂
Praying for you all. We are going through the same, here in SW Michigan. Rain, Rain, Rain. Tomorrow is another day, and His mercies are new with each day.
Happy Mother’s Day, Sarah! You guys do not need to push for content. We all love you both and know that life happens. We haven’t planted the bulk of our garden due to rain and our baby pigs can’t be delivered because of rain and the ground is saturated with water! Take care! We love you guys no matter what!! ❤️🌱🌼
We also have had a lot of rain so I understand your situation. Enjoy your channel so much and never miss a video. Looking forward to watching the silky chicks grow up. God bless you and your family
I can't wait to see the silkies as they grow. And the upgrades to the quail cages are super. I can only hope that there will be an upside to the rain, like more wild berries or better deer hunting in the fall, better pastures for the cows and cattle, etc. Thank God it's rain and not tornadoes. I wouldn't mind seeing another recipe for quail. Or how you get them ready to store in the freezer. Have you freeze dried the meat from them or are they to small? You and your family are so industrious I imagine it's difficult to feel like your spinning your wheels during this rain. But this video is proof that your always thinking and improving no matter what. You are to be commended. Prayers that the weather cleared of you.
Mother Nature always wins..... Just be blessed you don't have drought and do what you can. There are plenty of your old videos to watch. Don't get frustrated and use this time to rest. When summer hits your going to be running your rear endeds off catching up and hoping for a rain day.
You folks need to do what you need to do, we appreciate you guys so much! We will be looking forward to your next video whenever you are able to produce it. Take care and God bless!
Born there, been there, left there. (Living in Germany now.) They don't call it the State of Misery for nothing. All kidding aside, growing up there was priceless. Where else does the humidity and the temperature compete in the summer to see which reaches 95 first! Well, actually, quite a few places, but still..... All the best!
It's been a long time since I've had a baby chick, but the sound of baby chick in house is so memorable. Kevin and Sarah thanks so much for everything that you share about life on the farm. God knows that it is sometimes difficult YET all honest work that can be so rewarding.
We had a pet gray silkie rooster that lived to almost 14 years. His name was Easter and was our daughter's chicken. He loved being held and would sit with her on the porch swing. He also liked to ride in the basket on the handle bars of her bike. The coolest thing about Easter is he brood chicks, ducklings,and even a goose. We didn't need to put up a heat lamp. He was the heat lamp. Sure miss him. The new silkie hen isn't interested at this time. We also used Cochins for brooding and raising chicks.
Dear Kevin and Sarah…. Please don’t get discouraged! Your channel is such a huge favorite around the world. I know you are a favorite here in North Florida. 😊👍 Just keep on doing what you enjoy. ~Sharon
We got 10” of rain here in Oklahoma this week. Thankfully, I only lost three peppers. I replaced them today with six more. Lol 😆 Beautiful chicks, Sarah! What thoughtful gift. Enjoy them and happy Mother’s Day!
LOVE YOU SHARING PART OF YOUR LIFE WITH US. WE ARE BLESSED BY YOUR VIDEOS. NO WORRIES ON HOW OFTEN. I WAS RAISED ON A 7 ACRE FARM WITH MY 5 SISTERS. RAISED STEERS, PIGS, CHICKENS AND A TRUCK PATCH. WE BUTCHERED AND PUT FOOD UP. YOUR VIDEOS HAVE BROUGHT BACK SUCH GOOD MEMORIES. MOST OF ALL WE LIVED BY THE BIBLE AND HE WAS FIRST. PROUD YOU PUT JESUS FIRST AND INCLUDE IT IN YOUR VIDEOS. I PRAY MANY BLESSINGS FOR YOU ALL AND YOUR FAMILY.
I am still enjoying everything you share with us. We definitely don’t want to be a burden to you. Give us what you can. Life is a great journey, lots of ups, downs, twist, turns and RAIN. You work hard and I truly am grateful you bring us along to the ride.
I love watching all that you are doing. And you two come up with the greatest example of how to do things. And I thank you for sharing what you can. And bless, but don't wash away with all of that rain. God's blessings over you and your family
I live in Arkansas and I feel you on the rain. My yard and garden are a soggy mess. I love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your story and lives with us.
Kevin and Sarah I really enjoy y'alls content and I too share your frustrations with spring rains. I am a true fan and will be here when your videos are ready!
I have a small flock of silkies, all colors. I do keep them separate from my laying flock because they get bullied. The hens will set anything!! It's so funny to see them mothering chicks that grow so much bigger than they are. They are so much fun! You're going to love them.
So glad that you guys have been blessed with rain since many other places are dealing with a lack of water. Plants can't grow without water so you have been blessed more than those struggling to keep their plants watered. Love the Silkies! Wish I had one for a pet, but where I live that wouldn't be allowed. So I will be living vicariously-sending love to your brood of silkies.
We raise coternix quail to provide local dog trainers birds (males) to train there dogs. I love the things Kevin did to reduce feed waste which is the biggest profit loss with birds. We have used many of your examples (garbage can chicken feeder) to improve feed loss. My Husband and I and my 82 yr old dad have been watching you for the last 3 years and we love all your content. Keep up your message, we are all going to need these lessons sooner than later .God Bless Renee
As an avid viewer…do not worry about the content…that will come. I just appreciate the fact that you drag that camera around as much as you guys do…I think I would have done it for 6 weeks and given up on it…thanks for doing what you do. Have a happy Mother’s Day Sara. Best wishes to you both!
You two do so much how could anybody complain about a lack of videos. You and your farm should be priority number one. I personally am grateful for everything you share with us. You are truly blessed as you are a true blessing to us. Thank you and God bless you. Oh by the way Happy Mother’s Day. Mike Weaver from K.C.KS.
We love the content you bring us on your vlog. I even like the daily chores vids that may seem boring to you but not to me. Thanks for sharing your homestead. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! enjoy your new babies. 🙏🕊❤🤗
I'm been watching every single video you put out for almost 5 yrs now. Your channel has SO much great info I'm always going back rewatching various topics you have covered. I'm a dedicated subscriber that's not going anyway during your video making down times😊
You both have nothing to worry about. People loved watching you and sharing your videos. Happy Mothers day Sarah. Your new chickens are so cute. Love them!
My goodness guys, you do an awesome job, don't feel pushed for content, we love whatever you show, have always loved this channel. God bless and Happy Mothers Day.

Exactly. 👍🏼

Thank you for sharing your grief. You touched my heart.
Happy Mother's Day Sarah. No worries, it gives us something to look forward to. Understand what spring brings, so be blessed and have a wonderful day.
Ingenius quail hacks, Kevin! Happy Mother's Day, Sarah, and all the Moms out there! God bless. ❤️
Parts of the USA are getting more rain than they need and others are in a drought. Prayers that all are safe and eventually the weather will improve. Thank you for the videos you are able to put out. Happy Mother’s Day to all and to single dads who are raising their families, God Bless.
Yes, we are in a drought here and praying for rain.
Send the rain to Germany, it's dry maby since 4weeks
I love your silkies!. They are just adorable and will look great running around. I think everyone understands that Mother Nature has plans of her own. Can't wait to see what's ahead for you guys. Take care!

I made that mistake once. Kept them in the house. One the dust. I never thought I would get it cleaned up.
Being from Prescott Valley AZ I can’t even fathom what that kind of rainfall would be like! Wow! Hang in there. You two are awesome teachers!
I live in Phoenix, was thinking I wish there were a way to save some of that excess rain out our direction. We could sure use it! Living in a small mobile home in the city, I don’t even try to do any container gardening but I enjoy watching your videos and wishing.

Ian Hurley, Type in the RUclips search box "Living Traditions Quail" and it will take you to Kevins' video on building the cages.
Things are going on in my life and family right now, that may not always be good. Your videos on Wednesday and Saturdays give me a little bit of an escape. Always look forward to watching!
Thinking of you Charles❤️remain strong🇭🇲

Just waiting for summer. Great ideas, Kevin. Sarah, love the silkies
Happy Mother's Day and how lucky those baby chicks are to have you their mommy :)

Sarah Happy Mother's day!!! The chicks are soooooo cute! Praying for better weather.
Rain is a necessary factor for food to grow. I’ve watched this channel faithfully for years, and am always excited for the next video.
Man Kevin I love the notifications on the feeder and waterers on the quail cages. I have a cage very similar to yours and have the same struggles. I feel this will be a great solution for me also

Just hang in there, and so will we. Your videos are always a joy… please don’t stop! You’d be surprised what a wonderful sight rain sliding down windows can be…oh wait! You remember, don’t you?🤣😂
Praying for you all. We are going through the same, here in SW Michigan. Rain, Rain, Rain. Tomorrow is another day, and His mercies are new with each day.
Hang in there guys! We’ve had cold and wind, now it’s in the 80’s! Blessings to you all!
Happy Mother’s Day, Sarah! You guys do not need to push for content. We all love you both and know that life happens. We haven’t planted the bulk of our garden due to rain and our baby pigs can’t be delivered because of rain and the ground is saturated with water! Take care! We love you guys no matter what!! ❤️🌱🌼
We also have had a lot of rain so I understand your situation. Enjoy your channel so much and never miss a video. Looking forward to watching the silky chicks grow up. God bless you and your family
Thank you for all of your help. Have a happy Mothers Day! ❤
I can't wait to see the silkies as they grow. And the upgrades to the quail cages are super. I can only hope that there will be an upside to the rain, like more wild berries or better deer hunting in the fall, better pastures for the cows and cattle, etc. Thank God it's rain and not tornadoes. I wouldn't mind seeing another recipe for quail. Or how you get them ready to store in the freezer. Have you freeze dried the meat from them or are they to small? You and your family are so industrious I imagine it's difficult to feel like your spinning your wheels during this rain. But this video is proof that your always thinking and improving no matter what. You are to be commended. Prayers that the weather cleared of you.
Silkies are great moms. I have 2 girls that go broody each spring together. They are very determined. Enjoy!
Have a blessed Mother's Day Sarah!
Hello Cami
What a great Mothers day gift ,their adorable to you addition ❤️ it !!!
Mother Nature always wins..... Just be blessed you don't have drought and do what you can. There are plenty of your old videos to watch. Don't get frustrated and use this time to rest. When summer hits your going to be running your rear endeds off catching up and hoping for a rain day.
You folks need to do what you need to do, we appreciate you guys so much! We will be looking forward to your next video whenever you are able to produce it. Take care and God bless!
Enjoy mother's day. April showers bring May flowers 🌷🌼🌺
Born there, been there, left there. (Living in Germany now.) They don't call it the State of Misery for nothing.
All kidding aside, growing up there was priceless.
Where else does the humidity and the temperature compete in the summer to see which reaches 95 first!
Well, actually, quite a few places, but still.....
All the best!
It's been a long time since I've had a baby chick, but the sound of baby chick in house is so memorable. Kevin and Sarah thanks so much for everything that you share about life on the farm. God knows that it is sometimes difficult YET all honest work that can be so rewarding.
We had a pet gray silkie rooster that lived to almost 14 years. His name was Easter and was our daughter's chicken. He loved being held and would sit with her on the porch swing. He also liked to ride in the basket on the handle bars of her bike. The coolest thing about Easter is he brood chicks, ducklings,and even a goose. We didn't need to put up a heat lamp. He was the heat lamp. Sure miss him. The new silkie hen isn't interested at this time. We also used Cochins for brooding and raising chicks.
Dear Kevin and Sarah…. Please don’t get discouraged! Your channel is such a huge favorite around the world. I know you are a favorite here in North Florida. 😊👍 Just keep on doing what you enjoy. ~Sharon
Happy Mother’s Day Sarah. What a wonderful gift. I love Silkies and love frizzles. So happy for you,
We got 10” of rain here in Oklahoma this week. Thankfully, I only lost three peppers. I replaced them today with six more. Lol 😆 Beautiful chicks, Sarah! What thoughtful gift.
Enjoy them and happy Mother’s Day!
My silkies are some of my favorites. Super broody, I've had 5 hens to 1 nest. We also use stock tanks as brooders and they work great.God bless.
Thank you for keeping it real! Just your sharing life/Homestead experiences is great. Luv the quail set up. 🌻👍🌻🤟🌻
LOVE YOU SHARING PART OF YOUR LIFE WITH US. WE ARE BLESSED BY YOUR VIDEOS. NO WORRIES ON HOW OFTEN. I WAS RAISED ON A 7 ACRE FARM WITH MY 5 SISTERS. RAISED STEERS, PIGS, CHICKENS AND A TRUCK PATCH. WE BUTCHERED AND PUT FOOD UP. YOUR VIDEOS HAVE BROUGHT BACK SUCH GOOD MEMORIES. MOST OF ALL WE LIVED BY THE BIBLE AND HE WAS FIRST. PROUD YOU PUT JESUS FIRST AND INCLUDE IT IN YOUR VIDEOS. I PRAY MANY BLESSINGS FOR YOU ALL AND YOUR FAMILY.
I am still enjoying everything you share with us. We definitely don’t want to be a burden to you. Give us what you can. Life is a great journey, lots of ups, downs, twist, turns and RAIN. You work hard and I truly am grateful you bring us along to the ride.
I love watching all that you are doing. And you two come up with the greatest example of how to do things. And I thank you for sharing what you can. And bless, but don't wash away with all of that rain. God's blessings over you and your family
I live in Arkansas and I feel you on the rain. My yard and garden are a soggy mess. I love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your story and lives with us.
Happy Mothers Day Sarah!
Kevin and Sarah I really enjoy y'alls content and I too share your frustrations with spring rains. I am a true fan and will be here when your videos are ready!
I have a small flock of silkies, all colors. I do keep them separate from my laying flock because they get bullied. The hens will set anything!! It's so funny to see them mothering chicks that grow so much bigger than they are. They are so much fun! You're going to love them.
Praying for you and the weather. It makes it really tough and put projects back. Hang in there. I love your attitudes to endure. God bless you.
Congrats on your adorable chicks and Kevin is so clever!
So glad that you guys have been blessed with rain since many other places are dealing with a lack of water. Plants can't grow without water so you have been blessed more than those struggling to keep their plants watered.
Love the Silkies! Wish I had one for a pet, but where I live that wouldn't be allowed. So I will be living vicariously-sending love to your brood of silkies.
We raise coternix quail to provide local dog trainers birds (males) to train there dogs. I love the things Kevin did to reduce feed waste which is the biggest profit loss with birds. We have used many of your examples (garbage can chicken feeder) to improve feed loss. My Husband and I and my 82 yr old dad have been watching you for the last 3 years and we love all your content. Keep up your message, we are all going to need these lessons sooner than later .God Bless Renee
As an avid viewer…do not worry about the content…that will come. I just appreciate the fact that you drag that camera around as much as you guys do…I think I would have done it for 6 weeks and given up on it…thanks for doing what you do. Have a happy Mother’s Day Sara. Best wishes to you both!
You two do so much how could anybody complain about a lack of videos. You and your farm should be priority number one. I personally am grateful for everything you share with us. You are truly blessed as you are a true blessing to us.
Thank you and God bless you. Oh by the way Happy Mother’s Day.
