We put our chickens in the run at 4:00 pm to keep the wild life away. I call them in with treats. They free range from 5:00am - 4:00pm. They go into the coop at dusk.
So happy you are back to making videos. My soil is healthy due directly to the things I have learned from you. When I need to entice my chickens into the coop early, I entice them with treats. Primarily canned corn. I drop a few kernels as I walk them to the coop and then toss a handful in and shut the door behind the ladies. My dog had a two month chronic ear infection that responded to and finally cleared with a prescription antiseptic liquid called VertraSeb TRIS ear flush. It is 0.1% ketoconazole and 0.01% phytosphingosine HCI. She gets a dose before/after a bath, or contact with water. She’s never had another infection with this easy regime.
Thanks for your videos . We moved to new property with a bit of land and I really want to start growing flowers next year . I find your videos are helpful ❤ I have hens and I used to free range them but since I saw fox and pine marten on our fields we installed electric poulty netting. I run 100 meters for 30 hens in the lawn infront of our house . Once I am in the garden we let them free . When I can’t watc them I simply go inside and call them shaking treats .
I don't know if you solved traing your chickens but this may work for you, if not. Try to pick a time that you can stick to everyday in the evening and feed your chickens at that same time everyday, inside their enclosure. Eventually they will know the time for feeding and gi the enclosure. Hope that helps. Happy farming 🙂
Hi! My chickens come out in the morning, but I call them back in at about 3.30/4pm with some corn (they only get corn in the evening, so they come running for it. But if tge Fox knows where the birds are you might want to keep them in for a while as he will be back until he's had them all! Also just a heads up I had straw down as a mulch around my dahlias, too. But I've had to remove it as it was harbouring the slugs! And they were decimating them.
I'm so pleaed you are more upbeat and ready to go after an awful winter. I have lost a lot of seedlings of both flowers and veg this spring, so I'm making (hopefully better) plans for next year. Great to see you back.
It’s interesting you put a straw mulch down …we get so many slugs I need to remove all weeds , dead matter etc as it becomes a slug hiding place 🥴🥴 Beautiful flowers ❤❤❤
Praying for a quick recovery for your pupster...a neighbor just trapped a fox in our area - they can really wreak havoc when they set up shop. But glad to see you making bouquets (beautiful - glad you sold out)...I've enjoyed watching common flower farm who pulls material from shrubs and trees when the flower beds aren't always cooperating - love that idea, and makes just as beautiful bouquets and arrangements
Hi Sarah, great to see you out planting and harvesting flowers, its been a gawd awful year thus far, hopefully we can have decent run from now until the end of the year. Hope your pup mends up soon. Best regards, David
Hi Sarah! Thank you for showing the compost process -- very interesting. I never had a dog with ear infection but have heard that adjusting the diet can help? It helped my arthritic Aussie dog with his flare-ups. Also seems like your fox might help with your rabbit problem if you can protect the chickens. Glad you are sounding less discouraged lately 😊❤
I just started composting because of you! I’m starting very small with a tumbling bin. But I would love to see an in depth video about what you compost & how often you mix. And your finished product.
I love watching your videos as you share the day and are so truthful about some of the struggles you have that actually inspire your viewers to see that you are showing a beautiful result with those flowers and just your honesty. thank you Sarah
Thank you for your video. So love your flower arrangements!! If I lived closer I would definitely be a regular to your Flower Shed. Love all your projects.
Have you tried leaving a radio on playing as a fix might then avoid it. Also can you get into the habit of giving corn at tea time so they are tempted to go in for that. 100% free range life thiugh. Love your videos ❤
Happy to see you making real progress again. Can't wait to see which dahlias you have chosen and how they will grow. Chooks will be vulnerable night and day now one has been taken unfortunately. 🐓 Has Rob seen the latest from the 'Bowler hat farmer' or yesterday's interview by 'Richard Vobes ' both of which are highlighting the recent weather patterns and how farmers and growers are being affected. Have a great holiday....
Hopefully your dahlias will make some nice tubers you can lift in November so you won’t have to spend all that dosh next year. Watch out for earwigs! They love dahlias and will munch holes in the leaves. Sounds like you need to get out the shotgun for the fox, but not for the earwigs, you can make traps for them.
Someone!! I suspect a pine martin or mink 🤷♀️ took at least one of my chickens in the last 12 hours!! My girls free range across 3 fields, ours and the ones either side of us (sometime leaving a gift in the barn next door 😏) I don’t want them locked up, I want them to have the freedom to go where they want, although I am not happy that someone is using our girls as food, I appreciate that they are part of the food chain and everyone has a place in this world, this is the deal I have made with the devil!! I hope your wee dog makes a recovery, it’s a worry when they are not well Love that you are back making videos, I have missed you, looking forward to seeing more
Yay! So happy to see the recent videos from you Sarah! The bouquets looked absolutely gorgeous. Was the wispy green a type of asparagus foliage you used? x
@@bloomandgray I love the look of it!! Was it just regular asparagus or the fern type? I'm sure I've seen the climbing variety in other international flower vlogs but wasn't sure if it would grow outside in the uk temps x
Invest in a swan. You could do a goose, but a goose would be more of an alarm. Otherwise training is going to be your best bet if you want a non-lethal solution. I'd suggest trap/release... But if it is a mother fox, you may inadvertently impact her kits.

The wrens! I love them so much.

For the chickens, try the portable electric poultry net with built in step-in posts. Fairly easy to set up & move.

Did you bye any electroculture antenna. ?? You never know this could really help you

Beautiful flowers ❤❤❤

Love you floral arrangements they look so natural xx
Really enjoyed your video . Hope your dog will be in the mend soon. thank you Sarah
Lovely update. What are you listening to on your headphones... x

I just call my chickies with some treats around 4pm! My neighborhood fox usually wakes up around 5pm!
I just started composting because of you! I’m starting very small with a tumbling bin. But I would love to see an in depth video about what you compost & how often you mix. And your finished product.
Great progress following all your hard work.
Beautiful dahlias!! Other flowers look amazing also 😀
I’m surprised you have a fox coming around with all your dogs there! Looking forward to seeing the new plants growing.
I love watching your videos as you share the day and are so truthful about some of the struggles you have that actually inspire your viewers to see that you are showing a beautiful result with those flowers and just your honesty. thank you Sarah
Thank you Sarah, I wish for you the very best ! Your a very hard worker and you make stunning bouquets! 💐💚🙃
Thank you for your video. So love your flower arrangements!! If I lived closer I would definitely be a regular to your Flower Shed. Love all your projects.
Love watching your videos Sarah, thank you.
I love that you take time nourishing your soil and thanks for sharing.
I’m clad to see u outside in the garden again keep up the good work work 🇳🇿❤️
Beautiful bouquets. Sorry I'm too far to get some of your stock bunches
6:25 really nice bouquets you made there !
Have you tried leaving a radio on playing as a fix might then avoid it. Also can you get into the habit of giving corn at tea time so they are tempted to go in for that. 100% free range life thiugh. Love your videos ❤
Fox not fix!
Is that the weedy poly tunnel you had the chooks and pigs in? It’s looking great now.
I thought with the Johnson su method you didn’t need to turn. I use this method but don’t turn, because I am old!
One problem you may find with using straw as mulch, makes great hiding places for slugs and snails 🐌
Happy to see you making real progress again.
Can't wait to see which dahlias you have chosen and how they will grow.

Ah lo, how far apart did you plant the dahlia seedlings? And do you get seedlings from known varieties or from seeds?
Hopefully your dahlias will make some nice tubers you can lift in November so you won’t have to spend all that dosh next year. Watch out for earwigs! They love dahlias and will munch holes in the leaves. Sounds like you need to get out the shotgun for the fox, but not for the earwigs, you can make traps for them.
Just a suggestion, but from whatching your videos, I thought it would be nice to hear you read books for Audible books. Just one mans opinion. Cheers

Yay! So happy to see the recent videos from you Sarah! The bouquets looked absolutely gorgeous. Was the wispy green a type of asparagus foliage you used? x
It was asparagus 😁
@@bloomandgray I love the look of it!! Was it just regular asparagus or the fern type? I'm sure I've seen the climbing variety in other international flower vlogs but wasn't sure if it would grow outside in the uk temps x
I feed my chooks and ducks around 5pm so they come looking for me
Please let me know what stocks you grow? Mine always grow stubby with very little fragrance 😢
I have been trying to buy your online hand tied bouquet work shop but I can't proceed to checkout is there a problem with the website at the moment?
What happens to the Dahlias overwinter and next year?
Anyone know the plum colored flowers behind her at the very end of the video?
Possibly sweet William
Can you please put roses up the sleeper wall.
Invest in a swan. You could do a goose, but a goose would be more of an alarm. Otherwise training is going to be your best bet if you want a non-lethal solution.
I'd suggest trap/release... But if it is a mother fox, you may inadvertently impact her kits.
