Shirley has always been a special girl. Laverne was her first born and even when Shirley Gave birth again Laverne was still her baby. Shirley is so cute looking up at you showing you those babies.
What a beautiful way to start your day. It blows me away how Shirley is so loving to Laverne. Never have I saw such a bond between two animals and child
Love how Shirley bird stayed by her side. I can imagine her saying stuff like "breath in and how slow lay on ur side stand up don't walk around to much relax" lol this is awesome congrats
I believe you’re making the right move Lester. We all know there’s definitely trade-offs to any decision. The sanctuary needs you there. Staying connected with the kids via your bus route is cool. Congratulations on all the new babies and prayers for Nanny goat
I believe that the loss of a life means another life will be granted a chance in the world. Happiness and sadness are spread evenly in this world like a circle and a way of life. Nanny Goat will be moving on to the Rainbow Bridge.
Wait until you get in your 60’s. You look at life differently. Especially when you realize that the largest part of your life is past. Don’t worry, Lester. We interpreted and understood the message in the way you meant it. No misunderstandings.
Yeah wait til u hit 60’s thangs change long before I hit that age I’ve had both hips replaced (at 45) and now one knee (3 years ago) so for and I’m only 62. Boy age creeps up on u very quickly. I can’t do as much as I used to so take care of ur self. Will be keeping Nanny goat 🐐 in my prayers so happy that Laverne had her babies and No Complications, take care of those babies now. From Debbie in Robinson Texas (down by Waco area)
Im envious of people in their 40's, 50's that are still active! I had to retire at 48yrs old, neuropathy, using walker, numbness, lots pain. So hope Lester & Jamie are going strong late in old age!! So happy for the new babies, hope both Mommas & babies are happy, healthy. Pray for Nanny goat & Sophia still looks big around & not too good. 🤗💕🙏🙏
@@debbiecozortakalonghornmom1862 I hear you! I’ve also had both hips replaced and a knee. I’ve also had 2 back surgeries and my neck. The never ending pain is so hard to endure. I’m also 62 using a walker. Never expected my life to go like this. My parents were both in their 90s when they passed. At this rate I can’t take 30 more years of this pain. But I love these animals so much ♥️
@@debwhipple2765 I Hear Ya, I’m having pain now in my right knee but I’m trying to hold off. My dad just had his right knee done on April 15th and his birthday is April 26th and he turned 82, so actually I’m only 61 right now til November 28th. So he has had both knees done in five years and my left one was three years ago this pass February both hips I’ve had two surgeries on each and then replacements done in January 2005 on my right and then in October of 2005 the left one was done. And all these surgeries have been on joints I have messed up when I was younger in sports 🏀🏐🥎🏃🎳🏇 all listed here. Horseback 🐴 riding been thrown and stepped on.
HOW ABOUT A WHISTLE FOR EACH OF YOU TO CALL OTHERS TO HELP IMMEDIATELY... OR A BIG BELL OF SOME SORT..SOMETHING THAT COULD BE HEARD . SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN USE WITH ONE HAND, SO YOU CAN STILL VIDEO WITH THE OTHER.
Beautiful how Shirley is walking through this journey with Laverne. Laverne's babies are so pretty. Lester, don't worry to explain, we all understand the circle of life!! Best wishes on all the new life on the Sanctuary!!! 🍼🍼🍼💚💜💙💛
We say when one dies a new one comes along. I know when my mother in law passed away, a year later to the date she passed I had my youngest daughter. God works in mysterious ways and I am very thankful. Congratulations on Lavern's new babies. Shirley is going to be a wonderful grandma. I pray Nanny goat is ok. God bless you all.
Y’all need a walkie talkie system so you don’t have to run all over the place lol!! I worry about infection in those open umbilicals lol! They are beautiful! And Shirley bird was tryin yo tell you lol
I saw that. Shirley peeped out and then went back in when he was calling them. I just love that girl she’s so protective of her daughter. I love all the babies so let me rephrase that.
So glad you are allowing Journey to be a goat. She is enjoying her life and you can see her personality developing. She doesn’t allow her physical issues stop her from having fun. Granny Shirley Bird - you must love her to pieces. Laverne did a great job delivering her twins, but I’m worried about your older goat. She looks poorly, I hope she’s okay.
Awwww more babies. Shirley such a good mother staying with her daughter while she gives birth. Laverne great job you have 2 beautiful babies that look just like you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
She seriously does yell dad too Lester and she yells momma to Jami when shes screaming for Jami. It was in a video they posted from suits to boots channel i think like 5 or 6 weeks ago!! Clear as day multiple times! Just amazing how intelligent she is!
I’ve always heard when there’s a death a new life is born Lester you were on the right track . I think it’s so sweet that Shirley helped Lavern and wouldn’t leave her when she gave birth and they looked just like their moma so sweet lol 😂 Journey wants all the attention from y’all cause y’all spoiled her but she is so sweet I could squeeze her even if she’s getting bigger she’s still precious reminds me of a little dog l think she’s picked up Maggie’s ways . Lol 😂 love ❤️ y’all !
I love that Shirley helped her baby have babies and helped to look after them. Shirley is such a wonderful girl! Laverne looks like she might have at least one more. She still looked plump laying in the stall.
It's the circle of life, everything is birthed lives and dies. We may not like it, as much as we wish it wasn't like this. It has to happen. No matter how much we love someone or something. Maybe little nanny goat 🐐 is just feeling her year's and just needed an extra lay in. Plus she was there with Shirley to see lavern give birth to another generation. A beautiful sight to see. ❤️
When I retired from teaching I realized how much I really did besides teach. Still busy! Food pantry, free tutoring, church chores, senior citizen friendship hotline. Work takes a different form. Enjoy the changes...hug!
Lester you can’t see the future, so please don’t beat your self up! God knew it would happened, so remember everything went fine, no breach no problems and she had support! All went fine! I love all of you, you do what you can, love you all, God will take care of you, teaching or not!
It is definitely a loss for the kids losing you as a teacher. Teachers like you are so important and I would love to have you as a teacher to any of my four kiddos. However, those babies (including the biggest baby, Tex...lol) are incredibly blessed to have you, Jamie, and the entire family to care for them. Love and respect from Virginia! ❤
Journey has grown SO MUCH !! You all did an AMAZING job raising her& of course You & family HAVE DONE A TERRIFIC JOB FOR ALL of the other Babies too !!
I will watch this in it's entirety after work. I just had to see Laverne and her babies, as she has a very special place in my heart. I love all the animals but there's just something about Laverne that got me as soon as she was born. So happy for her and us all! Cant wait to see more of Shirley, Laverne, and those kids.
The happiest day of my life was when I retired at age 43. I had no idea how we were going to survive with two children lots of pets and one income. But we managed it was the best thing I’ve ever done was retiring from that job and it’s within six weeks I was on to a new career job not what I had planned but I would prefer to stay retired at 43. But you’re gonna love it Lester it’ll all work out
I just love you Lester! I’m soon to be 77 and I’m cracking up watching you paint yourself into a corner!!! LOL!!! Glad Laverne and babies are ok. I hope old Nanny goat is alright. Thank goodness you are home 🏠 today to watch her ♥️
Ohhh 😲 more beautiful baby goats 🐐 and Lester you’re a super granddaddy 😁😘. This video makes me enjoy your life from my quiet day here in 🇨🇦. Shirley bird is a great mom and is coaching Sweet Laverne. Sending luv to old Nanny 🐐 ❤️🥰🌞
Laverne should be a great momma since she's got such a wonderful role model with Shirley. Those new tinies are so precious. 🐐 Hoping and praying that old Nanny is ok.
Shirley Bird and Huck have special souls, I hope the grandbabies carry that line and their spirits too, Lavern and Shirley never really separated that mother child bond.Like most animals will. Even if you had known about the babies when it happened they were OK and being cared for, what else could you have done , other than move them to the stall/Nursery. They can nurse off mom for a few days then I'm guessing bottle time( ya'll better start drinking your diet Dr Pepper again you are going to need 5 more bottles). So heart warming that Journey is a big girl now and part of the herd, I always thought she would have to be separated for most of her life.I love that you can tell which donkey was braying just by the sound- they all sound the same to me.
Lester you and Jamie take such good care of your animals and Journey is proof that with lots of love and care miracles can happen!! So happy that Laverne had her babies! Old Nanny and new babies are part of the circle of life!
I’m amazed by the bond Shirley and her daughter Laverne have. Shirley was right by her daughter as Laverne gave birth. Springtime on a farm lots of new life. God is good. The golden girl Sophia stills looks weak in the videos. Hope all goes well there. Keep a watch on old nanny. We all deserve a good life right to the end. God bless you and your family. And give Journey a hug for me.
I love seeing Shirley by Lavern’s side such a motherly thing to do. However both Lavern and Shirley looked a little shocked snd confused. Maybe they knew their surroundings were not very conducive to having newborns. Will look forward to the updates on them. Lester you won’t look back from retirement enjoy the farm and your family 😊
It is like Shirley was trying to let you know that Laverne was in labor when she peeked her head out of the barn at beginning when he was calling the littles! Such a good grandma! ❤
It looked like Corny was listening to your ending philosophical musings! Or he just wanted to photobomb your video. The circle of life never stops turning--new lives enter, old lives depart, everything changes. It's all okay.
Best adventures are happening at the best AND outrageous farms out there!! Congrats on the newest twinkies, they are gorgeous , just like their mama and grandma 🤗🤗🤗🤗❣❣❣❣ Blessings for granny goat❣
I LOVE THAT GRANDMOTHER SHIRLEY STAYED WITH LAVERNE TO BE "MIDWIFE" ENCOURAGER AND SEE HER GRANDBABIES ARRIVE. NOTHING LIKE SEEING YOUR GRANDBABIES ARRIVE. CONGRATULATIONS LAVERNE AND FAMILY
The bond between Shirley and Laverne is so special. No other animal on your farm has that maternal bond. The new babies are adorable. I hope that Nanny Goat is OK.
That’s okay Lester, I no longer need a sanctuary when I can support and watch yous! I’m also resigning at the end of the school year from the school system. Whether I can make it or not, I’ll soon see. “Retirement” not quite, when one is any type of a caregiver there’s no rest or enjoyment every minute. Sending everyone hugs on Lavern’s births.
I was raised on a (mainly) dairy farm. I know what goes into running a farm with 1,600+ animals - there is no let up. When I’m not at work, I’ve been helping my mum out because it’s the start of calving and lambing season. I’m a full time Quality Control Engineer in my day job, but I just can’t fully pull myself away from farm life.
Your babies need you. So I am sure you will have plenty to do. I am sure the Littles love having the special treats of their Dad around. Lots of new life!!!
Lester: my first day in the classroom was August, 1969. My last day was May 24, 2019. I have empathy for the issues you face as you walk away. Now that I’ve retired, I seriously wonder why I didn’t go sooner. I have greatly reduced my stress level by not teaching through Covid. I’ve taught so long some of my best friends are former students! I’m a firm believer things happen for a reason and things ALWAYS work out. Again I say, if I could only access one RUclips household, it would be all y’all’s family channels.
Lester y’all should install cameras in the barns. That way if you need videos you have those and you can always we what’s going on in the barns. It’d be super cool!
They did have the nest cameras up when they went on vacation. More than likely they took them down when they got home. Sandi Brock from Sheeplishly me uses them in her barn to see if any ewe's have had baby before she gets out to the barn at 5am.
When Lester called the littles, Shirley walked out and looked out at him like "hey, ya might wanna come see this!"
I thought the same thing, so funny but true.
I noticed that too! She may also have said, I heard ya, but I’m a little busy right now
@@sunshinesue4131 lol I can see that too! She's definitely one of a kind.
Note to self, when you have pregnant goats that are due any day now, make certain you check on them first thing in the mornings.
Shirley has always been a special girl. Laverne was her first born and even when Shirley Gave birth again Laverne was still her baby. Shirley is so cute looking up at you showing you those babies.
What a beautiful way to start your day. It blows me away how Shirley is so loving to Laverne. Never have I saw such a bond between two animals and child
Reminds me of the song lyrics "And when I die, and when I'm gone
, there'll be one child born in this world to carry on, to carry on."
Love that song......thanks for bringing it up.
Courtney, Love it too, it says a lot. 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Love how Shirley bird stayed by her side. I can imagine her saying stuff like "breath in and how slow lay on ur side stand up don't walk around to much relax" lol this is awesome congrats
I believe you’re making the right move Lester. We all know there’s definitely trade-offs to any decision. The sanctuary needs you there. Staying connected with the kids via your bus route is cool. Congratulations on all the new babies and prayers for Nanny goat
You're still teaching... your teaching us now.
And....we don't have to worry about getting in trouble for talking in class🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Life is beautiful. I love that Shirley is walking with Laverne thru this season of her life. Such a bonded pair of babies. Hope Nanny goat perks up.
So sweet that grandma was their when her grandbabbies were born. Those babies are adorable!
I believe that the loss of a life means another life will be granted a chance in the world. Happiness and sadness are spread evenly in this world like a circle and a way of life. Nanny Goat will be moving on to the Rainbow Bridge.

Gotta keep yourself healthy even though you’re retired now Lester. They can’t run the sanctuary without the shepherd. Congratulations on the babies!
He's retiring at the end of the school year so there's a few weeks until he's retired retired lol
It’s really amazing to see the relationship Shirley and Laverne have❤️
Laverne had her precious babies Laverne looks like she will be a good mama
Laverne was overwhelmed when she had her first kid.
Wheres ringo for the forgin?
Oh theres ringo!!
I am so glad babies look like Laverne!!If the babies are girls 4 names.How bout Penny and Cindy.Real names of actresses who played L& Shirley!!💞💞
I really like those names . Its 630 here in Oregon sn my day is just starting so im not even thinking names. But yes II hope they are girls now. Hugs
I also like names of Cindy and Penny, if both girls. Dusty for a boy.
I like them name's Laura
I AGREE WITH THE NAMES FOR BABY GOATS "PENNY & CINDY".
HOW ABOUT A WHISTLE FOR EACH OF YOU TO CALL OTHERS TO HELP IMMEDIATELY... OR A BIG BELL OF SOME SORT..SOMETHING THAT COULD BE HEARD . SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN USE WITH ONE HAND, SO YOU CAN STILL VIDEO WITH THE OTHER.
Sweet Laverne, had her babies!!! Happy to see Shirley being supportive.
Those babies look just like Laverne. I hope y’all keep them. Shirley is a granny ❤️
I do too. Laverne should be able to bond with her babies, the way Shirley got to bond with Laverne.
@@trinacolson4079 i agree but i know they can’t keep them all.
They already said they were keeping one of Sophia's babies. Not sure about pebbles twins.
I think Laverne needs the babies to bond to she’s so dependent on Shirley
Oh yeah! More babies, they are so tiny. Shirley is such a sweet momma staying with her girl Laverne. So happy for yall, congratulations!
Beautiful how Shirley is walking through this journey with Laverne. Laverne's babies are so pretty. Lester, don't worry to explain, we all understand the circle of life!! Best wishes on all the new life on the Sanctuary!!!
🍼🍼🍼💚💜💙💛
Shirley, for all her blonde moments that she’s had over the years, is a wonder momma and granny!
Dawwwwww. Shirley poked her head out when you were calling them like, "We got babies in here." lol God love. I hope Nannie Goat is ok.
We say when one dies a new one comes along. I know when my mother in law passed away, a year later to the date she passed I had my youngest daughter. God works in mysterious ways and I am very thankful. Congratulations on Lavern's new babies. Shirley is going to be a wonderful grandma. I pray Nanny goat is ok. God bless you all.
Y’all need a walkie talkie system so you don’t have to run all over the place lol!! I worry about infection in those open umbilicals lol! They are beautiful! And Shirley bird was tryin yo tell you lol
There are walkie talkie apps for iPhones, like Zello, which are great!
He could just call on the phone too.
My parents had walkie talkies when they went to the store so that they could find each other when they went to shop separately.. lol
I saw that. Shirley peeped out and then went back in when he was calling them. I just love that girl she’s so protective of her daughter. I love all the babies so let me rephrase that.
@@sheredamalone1366 it’s like she was saying, come on daddy, look what my girl did!
So glad you are allowing Journey to be a goat. She is enjoying her life and you can see her personality developing. She doesn’t allow her physical issues stop her from having fun. Granny Shirley Bird - you must love her to pieces. Laverne did a great job delivering her twins, but I’m worried about your older goat. She looks poorly, I hope she’s okay.
Wow! Shirley is a grandma now. They are beautiful. Well done Laverne. 😍😍
And Freckles is a great grandma.
@Phobe Lee Aunt on mom's side ( Shirley's sister) and half sister on dad's side.
Awwww more babies. Shirley such a good mother staying with her daughter while she gives birth. Laverne great job you have 2 beautiful babies that look just like you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The greatest joy in being a grandparent is knowing that the next generation is coming along and we will be carried on in the future.
It sounded like Journey was yelling Dad.
I agree!!! I had to take my earphone out and replay it to make sure I heard it correctly.
I thought so too
She seriously does yell dad too Lester and she yells momma to Jami when shes screaming for Jami. It was in a video they posted from suits to boots channel i think like 5 or 6 weeks ago!! Clear as day multiple times! Just amazing how intelligent she is!
I love how you interpreted for Dan and Ivy. You are not Dr. Doolittle, you are Dr. DooLester.
And it’s not a lie. The truth is the circle of life happens. Someone dies every minute while another one is born.
Love all your babies Lester congratulations 🎊🍾🎉🎈
Glad that Journey is growing. Perhaps the care you and Jami have given her is showing how positive her life is. Kudos to both of you.
They also say when one door closes another one opens. And that can be but to our lives as well. Love seeing all those new babies.
Congratulations Laverne ❤️ I just loved how Shirley and Laverne surrounded those babies, to protect them. Can’t wait for the next video.
I’ve always heard when there’s a death a new life is born Lester you were on the right track . I think it’s so sweet that Shirley helped Lavern and wouldn’t leave her when she gave birth and they looked just like their moma so sweet lol 😂 Journey wants all the attention from y’all cause y’all spoiled her but she is so sweet I could squeeze her even if she’s getting bigger she’s still precious reminds me of a little dog l think she’s picked up Maggie’s ways . Lol 😂 love ❤️ y’all !
I am so glad that you are giving Journey a wonderful life She is my fav
Breath, Lester. You and your family are doing a terrific job!! Congratulations sweet LaVerne. So glad mother Shirley helped LaVerne.
Thank you Susan.
I’ve noticed cornholio is back to staying close to you guys since the passing of Gloria
What happened to Gloria??
@@lilly243 They did a video recently, all they said was that she crossed the bridge in the night. 😢 It might have been on Jami’s channel. 💕💕💕💕
@@lilly243suits to boot Glorias Glory
I wasn't aware 😥
Lester, those aren't mean guy lines those are WTF lines!! 🤣🤣🤣
😹😹
Lol yes indeed.
😂
Lol lol
The babies are so cute❤️ Well done Laverne.
I love that Shirley helped her baby have babies and helped to look after them. Shirley is such a wonderful girl! Laverne looks like she might have at least one more. She still looked plump laying in the stall.
It's the circle of life, everything is birthed lives and dies. We may not like it, as much as we wish it wasn't like this. It has to happen. No matter how much we love someone or something. Maybe little nanny goat 🐐 is just feeling her year's and just needed an extra lay in. Plus she was there with Shirley to see lavern give birth to another generation. A beautiful sight to see. ❤️
Now I'm wondering. Is Nanny Goat related to Shirley and Laverne?
Could this be several generations of the same family? 🤔
Momma Shirley was there helping her daughter Laverne as any good Mom is. She is excited about her grandbabies! They look so much like Laverne!
😊❤😊
I really hope you’ll keep Laverne babies.
It’s so sweet the way Shirley stays with Laverne continually! They have a bond that just won’t quit!
Lester you don’t know everything and you can’t be every where, you guys do an amazing job!!
I'm glad Laverne looks like she is doing good & that Shirley is such a wonderful mother & grandmother. She's precious! 😊 More beautiful babies! 💖😊💖
When I retired from teaching I realized how much I really did besides teach. Still busy! Food pantry, free tutoring, church chores, senior citizen friendship hotline. Work takes a different form. Enjoy the changes...hug!
The look on Journeys face was priceless when you were in the side by side! Laverne's babies are adorable 💕
I love how you guys put Shirley with Laverne and babies together. ❤ Those babies are cute! I love Shirley.
Lester you can’t see the future, so please don’t beat your self up! God knew it would happened, so remember everything went fine, no breach no problems and she had support! All went fine!
I love all of you, you do what you can, love you all, God will take care of you, teaching or not!
Journey loves her Dad!
Wow!! Busy morning 🙂. Lavernes baby’s are so cute and Shirley is such a good grandma. I hope Nanny goat is ok 😟
It is definitely a loss for the kids losing you as a teacher. Teachers like you are so important and I would love to have you as a teacher to any of my four kiddos. However, those babies (including the biggest baby, Tex...lol) are incredibly blessed to have you, Jamie, and the entire family to care for them. Love and respect from Virginia! ❤
Well
So true Heather. His kids will miss him so much, he is a jewel.
From Canada 🇨🇦
Journey has grown SO MUCH !! You all did an AMAZING job raising her& of course You & family HAVE DONE A TERRIFIC JOB FOR ALL of the other Babies too !!
I will watch this in it's entirety after work. I just had to see Laverne and her babies, as she has a very special place in my heart. I love all the animals but there's just something about Laverne that got me as soon as she was born. So happy for her and us all! Cant wait to see more of Shirley, Laverne, and those kids.
me too
So sweet that Shirley is being so protective and helpful to Laverne. 💖
Death is part of life, and we never know when God is going to call us home, human and animals. Life goes on.
The happiest day of my life was when I retired at age 43. I had no idea how we were going to survive with two children lots of pets and one income.

Now I am on my second half of another 22.5 year run at another company. Much nicer to work for, but a lot less money. Lol
Without loss of life, you can't appreciate life.
Dan in the background was hilarious.
I just love you Lester! I’m soon to be 77 and I’m cracking up watching you paint yourself into a corner!!! LOL!!! Glad Laverne and babies are ok. I hope old Nanny goat is alright. Thank goodness you are home 🏠 today to watch her ♥️
I love how you knew that was Dan by just hearing him. Shows your love for your babies.
Ohhh 😲 more beautiful baby goats 🐐 and Lester you’re a super granddaddy 😁😘. This video makes me enjoy your life from my quiet day here in 🇨🇦. Shirley bird is a great mom and is coaching Sweet Laverne. Sending luv to old Nanny 🐐 ❤️🥰🌞

The bond between Shirley and Laverne is so special. No other animal on your farm has that maternal bond. The new babies are adorable. I hope that Nanny Goat is OK.
This is the most "chill" I've seen you in a video. I think you are already settling into retirement.
Shirley is going to be the best grandma ever. Poor Annie has gotten all of these extra kids to watch. She says there is no time for naps anymore😂.
Journey really let's you know she's here.
💙
I agree with Penny and Cindy or if it’s a boy and a girl Cindy and Carmine
I sure hope y'all keep little pebbles babies . Plz keep them in memory of Bambam
It a good leap of faith Lester , all we have in this world is faith, love and hope, and happiness and you Dear friend deserve it all. God Bless
That’s okay Lester, I no longer need a sanctuary when I can support and watch yous! I’m also resigning at the end of the school year from the school system. Whether I can make it or not, I’ll soon see. “Retirement” not quite, when one is any type of a caregiver there’s no rest or enjoyment every minute. Sending everyone hugs on Lavern’s births.
I was raised on a (mainly) dairy farm. I know what goes into running a farm with 1,600+ animals - there is no let up. When I’m not at work, I’ve been helping my mum out because it’s the start of calving and lambing season. I’m a full time Quality Control Engineer in my day job, but I just can’t fully pull myself away from farm life.
Who knew our Shirley would be a birth coach/midwife? What a great Mama/Grandma.
Awhhhh 😍 Shirley is such a great mom...hope nanny goat is OK
Your babies need you. So I am sure you will have plenty to do. I am sure the Littles love having the special treats of their Dad around. Lots of new life!!!
Who else is even more in love with Shirley Bird now? 💗
Meeeee.. i love her so much
Lester is the best story teller I’ve ever heard! The good kind of stories.🤠🐴
Thanks Debbie.
That's so sweet shirley helping her daughter that is really neat circle of life sending love from Tennessee
Lester: my first day in the classroom was August, 1969. My last day was May 24, 2019. I have empathy for the issues you face as you walk away. Now that I’ve retired, I seriously wonder why I didn’t go sooner. I have greatly reduced my stress level by not teaching through Covid.
I’ve taught so long some of my best friends are former students!
I’m a firm believer things happen for a reason and things ALWAYS work out.
Again I say, if I could only access one RUclips household, it would be all y’all’s family channels.
Lester y’all should install cameras in the barns. That way if you need videos you have those and you can always we what’s going on in the barns. It’d be super cool!
Alot of people have mentioned this but they have crappy wifi there so it wouldn't work.
They did have the nest cameras up when they went on vacation. More than likely they took them down when they got home. Sandi Brock from Sheeplishly me uses them in her barn to see if any ewe's have had baby before she gets out to the barn at 5am.
Awe. Hope both babies and Mom are ok. ❣ Look at sweet Maggie !!!!
They are so cute. I hope the nanny goat is ok🙏🏻🙏🏻 You make me laugh even when I'm sad🤣🤣🤣
"Circle of Life"
