    It makes me laugh, people getting all angst-y about Sherlock. He is a flipping owl, with owl feathers, living in an owl palace, with servants!

    Hi guys! I love snow and the way it makes the air smell clean. If that makes any sense. However, it does make caring for the animals more difficult. Hope your hand heals quickly, Colin!

    Back in the mid 80s I lived near Rutland in Leicestershire and the snowfall one winter was at least 4ft deep. I remember having to walk to the shops one day and suddenly disappearing into a snowdrift when I lost my footing. It took me a good 10 minutes or so to get my footing back so I could haul myself up again. It was the most fun I'd had since being a kid.. I couldn't stop laughing at myself!! I'm glad you are both enjoying the highland weather whilst keeping yourselves, your chickens, bees and Sherlock well cared for. Hope the wedding plans are coming along nicely too :)

    A great vlog with amazing stunning drone landscapes. A day in the life in snow on your croft, really intriguing to see the dedication of care to your livestock and selves. A brilliant insight into scottish croft living. Thank you. X

    Colin, you are *such* a talented presenter and filmmaker ❤ I absolutely love watching and learning about the Croft and you present everything in such an interesting way. Shaun, I love seeing/learning about your ‘girls’ - I’d love to have chickens but we have a small garden+dogs so I live my dream through you/your girls! Sherlock is so fascinating, and seeing the badgers and wildlife cams. And the bees/watching your first honey harvest has been amazing. I loved every one of the boat videos and your new journey is wonderful - you’re so talented, Colin, I honestly think you could film paint drying and make it a riveting watch. Love to you both xxxx ❤

    You two put together such great videos. The beautiful drone footage of the snow, deer and your croft was just so fun to watch. The bees, Sherlock and the hens are certainly lucky to have you as caretakers. I love how the hens follow you Shaun. I also love how they have such cute little fluffy bums. lol

    Hi lads, about the chickens when I was a little lad about 60 years ago. A man kept chickens, and in the cold winter he used to give his chickens a bowl of wheat bran mixed in was potatoes peelings, bits of carrots, cabbage, all in a bowl. They used to go mad for it. Knowing that them chickens was getting a warm meal, was a nice feeling. Keep doing what you're doing, be happy.🎉❤

    • @FoxesAfloat
      @FoxesAfloat  Год назад

      You can, but they cost money, need power (not available), and is a bit lazy to be honest. We’d prefer to check on them regularly in these conditions. It’s a bit like giving you a flask of coffee and saying we’ll see you in a few days.
