I'm a mom with 4 kids so I know this next sentence sounds crazy. You're home sounds so peaceful. Watching the cows graze in their new ultra green grass with no cars whipping by and no neighbors within 10 feet of your home. Thank you for sharing your piece of the God's gift.
Watching your animals is super important, it is never wasted time. There's an old saying: The eye of the master fateneth the cattle.
Growing up on a farm of 30 cows...this makes my heart so happy. They transferred over to the new area very well. Have a great evening! Greetings from Wisconsin. Karen 😊
Oh she is loving getting green grass everyday! Thank you Karen!
Oh, my heart was in my mouth when Goldie started running to her new paddock, she was mooooo-ving fast!
Haha! Wasn’t that great! Thank you so much.
If I remember right you are the ones that are planting things to feed your animals to help supplement feed cost.
I bought one bamboo plant in 2020 and spilt it in two and planted them. I just did my first trimmings and I was able to supplement the bamboo leaves in place of hay feeding for two days. The cows loved it.
There’s nothing lazy about homesteading. 💕 you guys are doing great with your milk cow. It’s been fun to watch your milk cow journey. We have been doing family milk for 2 1/2 years now and it’s been one the biggest joys in my life. I can totally relate to watching your cow. Your video is a good reminder for us all...sit and back enjoy all the success and joy that your farm brings. It’s easy to get caught up in the business and hustle of it all. 💕💕💕💕💕💕
We just bought 6.5 acres. I didn’t think we’d have enough room for a milk cow but you’ve give me a new perspective.
You totally can do it!!! You might just need to supplement with hay. But you absolutely can!
Y'all are doing a great job - keep it up!
I wish I was more like you and learn to sit and enjoy life more. You guys seem like great people! Your setup looks great. Love the tarp idea.
Well I agree with you. You should be able to sit down, relax, and enjoy yourself too along with all of your chores.
Absolutely!!! Thank you Angel!
It's always good to see this amazing family. Love it.
Thats a great comment, if you dont enjoy this life its not worth it. Take it easy😊
That is so funny, I love your attitude towards that comment. “You’re a lazy homesteader”. I think you’re amazing I can’t imagine even doing what you’re doing right now.
Haha, yup. Once we started calling out that lady for all of RUclips to see….she never came back. 🤣🤣
Love the farm additions. 🐮
Your pastured chickens would LOVE to scratch through those Goldie Pies 🥧 😋
On the theme of "watch your cow for 10 mins/day...it's very therapeutic": I use the Parelli level 1 on-line seven games with our calves. Makes for tame, confident cattle that are easy to move, hoof trim, etc because there's an established "language". Incredibly therapeutic for me and the animals love it...cattle, horses, chickens, dogs, kids...husband 😀 🤣
Also, what's your energizer setup?
Yup!! We take that poop and dump it in the chickens poultry netting. And they scratch through it all and spread it out! 😁😁
Is that method in a book? I'd love to learn the method you're referencing.
Jersey’s are such pretty cows!
Wait what baby? 😳 Whooo hooo. I'm behind congratulations blessings 🙌
Haha, yup!! Thank you so much!!!
Very good job young man you will become a awesome homesteader like your parents. Take care and god bless
He is really coming into his own. It is a cool feeling to know how much more our kiddos will know by living their whole lives here.
It’s super super cool!
good idea have a break .well done bring up you family anf cow
I applaud you both! If you don’t take the time to enjoy your accomplishments you will not enjoy the ride!
Absolutely!!!
Coffee First! I've seen this on the internet, the phrase says, "Coffee first, then start the day!" I wish I had a Tee Shirt that said that! It doesn't mention the other 2 cups of morning Coffee to get you going! "Coffeeeee" is a battle cry like: BACON !
Haha you guys are anything but lazy!! You work your butts off there!! I admire you living out your dreams and the hard work you put in to make it happen!! Blessings to you all and Merry Christmas!!
Hahaha, thank you so much Lisa. And Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you too!!!
That’s cool how that works!
It is so easy for sure!
Awesome! Thakyall for these videos! Very helpful
Yay! Thank you so much!!!
After watching this video I remember my childhood when my mom milk the cow and churn the butter. You guys are doing a great job.
lazy homesteader would be a good youtube channel name
Fellow shed to house owner and homesteader here 😊 What is the brand/name of your electric moveable fence? It looks like it came with everything needed with lighter posts rather than buying than the poly wire reels I’ve seen and also having to drive metal t posts. I’d like to move my Holstein around and this just looks easiest! Thanks so much 💕
Hey! In this video, we are using Gallagher fencing, reels, and step in posts. Our local feed store supplies most of it. And I think you can just find the rest online.
.
We aren’t sponsored by them, but honestly like the product so much that we would partner with them in a heartbeat! I hope that helps 🤗
Do you have a link for the mini driver?
Ground rod? That white line is electrified with the solar panel as energy source?
I am curious about your everyday routine from wake-up to the end of the day.
Super fun!!!! I will put that on the “videos to make list”! 😁😁
If you don't sit back and enjoy it sometimes, what's the point? Eh? Cheers!
Absolutely!!
well done magic milk u got
magic milk
I love it
Hello, I am looking to buy a cow to milk, a miniature one would be great. Do you have any suggestions? I am very new to living the country only three years. But I’ve had no animals so far. I am looking to do chickens, bees and a cow milk. Why do you throw away the first gallon? And I would love a list of things that you would think would be important to start milking a cow. Literally I’m from the city lol
I wouldn’t buy a miniature Jersey, they are VERY expensive. Instead, I would find a nice midsize Jersey, learn the ropes of hand milking, and then breed her (artificial Insemination) back to a miniature bull.
Then that will give you a smaller calf, and then do it again and you’ll have yourself a small herd.
Random question: where did you get your stanchion mat from?
Tractor supply! Super easy and should be available at every location. 😁
Ignore the haters. Work smarter not harder. 👍
Love it, thank you!!
Hey guys are you going to build a Shed to cow house 🏡

Not yet, but working on it.

And, what do you do when it rains? The stand is out in the open.
How tall is Goldie? She’s so cute
What kind of fence do you use?
I wish to live with you guys .......
What do you do for a living? Do you have work from home jobs?

Quick explanation, we started selling essential oils in 2013, made enough to pay our monthly bills, I quit my job as a video producer at our church in 2015, we bought land in 2015, we started a RUclips channel and other ways to monetize our life, moved to our homestead in 2018.
Been here ever since! 😁😁😁
@@BetterTogetherLife very cool!
Need to cut the Tarp down a little bit
Or set it up in a gentle sag so all the wasted grain can be recovered easily by a single person if needed
🥰
What books/resources did yall use to learn about having a milk cow? I'm still in the waiting/ classroom phase and am looking for learning materials.
I really liked starting with The Family Milk Cow. It feels really manageable. Then we searched more and more to trouble shoot anything we didn’t find in the book after the cow arrived.
@@BetterTogetherLife Thank you so much!
Love 💋 your chagen cows too.
Its 6 to 9 months, or u can start at 9 weeks
Did I miss something? Not sure I understand.
@@BetterTogetherLife weening a baby calf off of mom
I call my spacing out day dreaming....Meticulous Observation.
Haha, love that!!!!
Have you watched the farmhandscompanion on you tube he makes two very nice small barns well one barn and a calf and milking shelter
Oh I just checked them out, that’s awesome! I need to build a little barn like that for sure!!
