    It is also very good for Thomas to take on build things It’s a good asset to have with not having a father figure around and to show the younger boys the mechanic things of life. Super job Thomas

    Oh my! Your little girl with the baby stroller, baby carrier and baby dolls brought back found memories of my little girls playing with their baby dolls. How sweet! I love when children can play and be creative. 🥰

    Thomas being the oldest must like coming to brothers and sisters that are happy to see him I love how all the children love each other and get along so well and also love the Lord. Thank you all. I can’t wait to get to heaven to finally meet you all. God bless you all

      Yes, he’s #5 but oldest at home right now. Actually Madalyn is these 5 months she’s home. But yes, he’s been the oldest at home last school year and fun for him to take on that oldest brother role. Fun for the little boys to look up to him and ask him questions about life. Fun for him to teach them science things and building things like you said. You’re right! Thanks for your sweet words. I’m going to pass them along to Thomas.

    Lined drapes for your windows .If you can't afford them use old blankets. The kids had them making a tent.I don't know but if you sew you can make your own.Or check at flea markets or yard sales or second hand stores for drapes .Even if they didn't match they will keep the heat in.

    Marcy you could put plastic up over the windows in the sunroom to help with heating. There’s a lot of windows so it would probably take a lot of plastic. Maybe tarps would work also, you just wouldn’t be able to see through it. Thomas is a great big brother.

    Hi Marcie,
    If y’all would cut your wood a year ahead it sure does burn better.
    Shock up in the spring and summer months.
    Clear plastic on your windows would still let the sunshine in, and keep
    the cold out.
    God Bless ❤

    My daughter has an outdoor stove which heats her water also. She gets a tractor trailer load of logs and cuts it down and then splits it It is a lot of work too much for me but it saves money instead of getting it cut split and delivered to her house. She drops some on her property but not much

    Maybe time to go to good will to buy fabric for curtains. You can even use fabric glue. That drill is better than mine. Love the Boxcar books. Using the chainsaw looks fun. Glad you have it. What a blessing that your home wasn’t in the line of the hurricane.

    Great video! Does the fireplace work in the living room?

    • @singlemomonafarm
      @singlemomonafarm  4 дня назад

      Yes but it’s gas and expensive. We only use it for special occasions.

    • @singlemomonafarm
      @singlemomonafarm  4 дня назад

      Originally it was a wood stove so I wish it still were. Except there isn’t a place to keep wood next to it and the living room would be dirty with wood chips. Some day it’s my dream to reconfigure a few things to put a big cookstove or wood stove in the middle of the house with a big enough hearth to hold a weeks’ worth of wood and contain the mess.

  • @julieemig432
    @julieemig432 6 дней назад +1

    I’m interested you don’t seem to have many predators trying to eat your chickens. We keep chickens also but don’t freeze range them. They have a coop and fenced yard.

    • @singlemomonafarm
      @singlemomonafarm  4 дня назад +1

      Yes we have predators but mostly at night when our chickens are in their coop. We’ve lost 2 over the years right at dusk because they hadn’t gone in early enough so that’s the time I’m mostly worried about predators.
      We’ve only had chickens for 3 years so we’re still learning and experimenting. But so far all our losses were when the chickens were in the fence.- either about to go in the coop for the night or when we had locked them in so they’d stay out of our garden when we were planting seeds. We lost 2 to hawks when they were in the fence. We haven’t lost any our free ranging. I think in the fence there are more chickens per square foot and this easier to nab one . Also less places to hide. Free ranging they are all spread out so harder for a hawk to nab. And also lots of bushes to hide under. They also hide under both decks, under the trampoline, under a shed, and in the wood shed if they see a hawk. They seem happier running around the 36 acres all day and have the orangest yolks I’ve ever seen. And my kids are happier with the chickens all over to play with all the time. That’s the lifestyle they want. We’re outside most of the day everyday and chickens are their pets. It’s not for everyone, and we’re still learning (and grumbling when the chickens trample my flowers🤣) but it’s what we’re choosing right now.
      I have a video on the pros and cons of free ranging. Check it out! ruclips.net/video/-nSgaKR3dKk/видео.htmlsi=tQ4j_Ic2WwAF1w-X

    @ryanm7249 6 дней назад

    Very good descriptions. Do you only get the wood from your property or do you sometimes have to buy some?
    Why did they delete your other video?

    • @singlemomonafarm
      @singlemomonafarm  День назад +1

      No, I never buy wood. I have lots of acres of down trees and dead trees that need to come down. Somehow a video clip I took on my phone got deleted or disappeared, haha. I couldn't find it. Oh well.

  • @oxfordcreekfarm
    @oxfordcreekfarm 6 дней назад +1

    A couple questions. How often are y'all stepping in chicken poop? Is it a problem? Also do you move your trampoline to mow the grass under it?

    • @singlemomonafarm
      @singlemomonafarm  День назад +1

      With 36 acres, the poop spreads out pretty evenly. Stepping in it isn't a problem except in the coop which the girls clean out weekly. No, we don't move our trampoline to mow under. I weed whack under it, what I can reach, a few times a summer. Also clip the brambles that try to grow. Doesn't always look the best, but that's what we're doing for now.
