I could not even imagine how cold it is there.Some treatments ,especially with the cold are better waiting for the temperature to rise.People see these fancy farms with pure breads and heated stables.Not all horses have that luxury .These are real horses on your farm.I am not a farmer or equestrian but even I know it’s ok for animals to be out in all weather.And of course they will be out for feed time .Dont worry what others say.Your doing fine.Next they will expect them indoors in pajamas with blankets over them and oats beside them for snacks.Oh! And don’t forget their bunny slippers..Sending Love to you all,Give the horses their hot chocolate and marshmallows before tucking them into bed lol!🥰
Haha you're too funny!!! 😅👏 Bunny slippers, can you imagine? Yes, people often see the mega barns with million dollar horses, and farm hands that shine the place up. Here we have frozen manure everywhere, and a good spring and fall cleaning that happens. It's reality when the horses are each making a dozen horse piles a day. 😅😅
@@Liltroyerfarm This is why I'm subbing. You didn't give the horses bunny slippers and they're not snuggled up in bed with you to keep them warm. This looks a lot more like real farm life and not Barbie's dream farm.
@gwendolyn9308 I love it! Thank you! And that is why I am so glad we didn't change how we do life in hopes of 'pleasing' people. The right kind of people build the right kind of community! ❤️
@@Liltroyerfarm I'm at the other end of Canada (NB) and I've seen some winter streaks where it's around -45. I don't like it much but the animals seem cool with it lol
@gwendolyn9308 Oh I believe it!!! Last winter we had a stretch of -50°C. The antifreeze for trailer plumbing that was rated -50 was frozen. Totally crazy.
I liked this video just as it is. I think you're doing a fantastic job. I agree that sometimes you can do more harm than good trying to protect them. I used to always think that if I'm cold, my goats are cold, and that is so far from reality. We don't have a completely closed in barn either but they can get out of the wind and do just fine. Anyway, great job and thanks for sharing.
Wind break is the best thing for outdoor animals. Even calves born in -30 can do alright as long as they have bedding and can get out of the wind. The difference between Jitterbug (born March 30 in snow), and Ladybug born June 29...was crazy. The march born foal actually had decent fur, while Ladybug was very thin skinned and fine hair. They even are prepped in utero!!! Thanks for watching! 😊😊
@Liltroyerfarm wow! That is very interesting. I dont have cows and never had horses but I'm loving all that I'm learning from you with your horses. God sure made some amazing animals.
Keep on keeping it Real! I love how you explain all the things about the animals and the snow, shivering and such. And you are right, animals raised in your general area are generally adapted to the weather. Here our weather is the weirdest I remember in my whole life. One morning it was 22F (-5.5C) and the next morning it was 40F (4.4C) So nobody is adapted to anything. And they are saying next week we will be 30-40 degrees above our normal average..... Just crazy. I don't blame you for putting off hoof trimming or other things that need your gloves off! Somedays it's all about getting through and surviving so you have the energy and ability to do better in the future.
Ooo that is some crazy weather changes! It's very hard on the animals to go from -25 up to 0 in 24 hours. Which does happen occasionally, so we keep a close eye on the horses for colic.
Quickest way to warm your horses up, is feeding them hay. The tractor needs to stay running for you. Are you putting iodine on Grace's foot? It kills the infection along with salicylic acid, then wrap the hoof(I know her bandage cane off) There's an abcess hiding in Robin's hoof. It's pushed outward. If it opens iodine and salicylic acid with a block on the good foot. Also, just trying to help 💙🩵💙 Prayers for you.
Absolutely 😊 That's why on the cold days, they get fed 3 smaller meals instead of 2 bigger ones. Keeps the stove burning longer. I haven't been putting anything on her foot as it just comes off in the snow. I need to look into ordering salicylic acid, especially for Robyn the goat! My farrier is considering putting a shoe with a plate on Grace, just to keep the pressure off her sole. Thank you for the suggestions!
Yup! Snow on their back is a GOOD sign that they are well insulated! While Jezzy has good snow on her back, the shivering is what gets me concerned. The others are handling the weather like champs! 😊
You should tell anyone who criticises to come do your chores for you. Its completely understandable that anyone would do 'bare minimum' in those extreme temperatures. Especially when your tractor isn't starting and you have to move all that hay by hand. That's a lot of work. You're doing a fabulous job and your animals are all well looked after. I hope the weather has been more kind this week ❤
An authentic chanel ! Extremely rare these days! Love it !! Please never stop. Such a Wonderful person who takes care for their animals !! New subscriber from Québec. 🩵
💜💜💜 LOVE THE RAW VLOG!! This was a great one!! I’m glad you got the tractor 🚜 working!! Watching you go back and forth was exhausting!! I felt for ya!! Please keep doing what you’re doing!! All of your animals look great and very happy!! Don’t worry about the people who don’t know or understand!! We get you and understand!! Great job once again!! 💜🐼💜
Brrr, ok now I feel cold! Remembering the northern dropped temperatures! LOL, my feet are like ice and I am not even up north! 😆😶😲🙄If those were wild horses, they would have no blankets, no immediate food without digging/pawing, no warm water, they would have whatever coat they were born with genetically. We sometimes put our comfort level on the animals, we're cold so they must be. I even do that with my dog as she has a short thin coat, so yes, I feel her shiver at night, lift up the blankets and she burrows under. During the day, our heater isn't working, so we have a space heater. I wear a flannel shirt and she has her sherpa jacket on. I frequently feel under her jacket to see how warm she is getting and always check her ears to see how cold. We're both doing just fine. The negatives can get to you after awhile. No need for apologies. You are doing the best that you can and it is a good job. As you pointed out, if you aren't aware of what it's like living there, it's hard to truly comment. YOu are ever further north than I was. LOL, when I was in college, my then boyfriend was from a more rural area. Some of the city "kids" saw the snow fences and were commenting how dumb the farmers were to have such gaps in their fencing, no wonder the cows got out. My boyfriend pointed out that the cows were trained not to go through the gaps and onto the road. City slickers believed him. 🤣
That's also a perk of having lots of trees on our property. There are lots of cozy spots that is completely out of the wind for them to stay warmer. Horses are smart, they know exactly where to go. Also admitting that there are few horses that don't grow a proper winter coat, like Jezzy. Those are the ones that need a blanket when the temps dip too low. But, even if we didn't blanket her, she WOULD survive, it would just eat a lot of her fat/muscle/calories which we don't want. Wild horses go through a cycle of getting fat in the summer and losing weight all winter. Haha! That sounds silly! Some cows DO crawl through the fence. But that's where ranchers around here use barbed wire and keep it tight. Usually 5 strands are best to keep the gaps smaller. But the barbed wire isn't pleasant, so they learn not to push through it. Same with the horses. They respect the fence. As always, thanks for being here 😊
@@Liltroyerfarm I learn so much from you! LOL, silly me thought all horses kept a nice thick winter coat, doubted they ever shivered. I wasn't allowed a horse, yet went horseback riding...a lot! My dad used to grumble he may as well buy me a horse. I was all for it, but he wasn't. Would've been good for me in many ways!!! The snow fences in Illinois were to keep the snow from drifting onto the highway and closing down the highway during major winter storms. If the city slickers would've noticed, those particular fields were always growing corn, wheat, mainly corn, during the months there wasn't snow! My college boyfriend went hunting and got a rabbit. He was field dressing it back on campus. The city boys asked what in the world that was? He told them a rabbit. They scoffed and said that was not a rabbit. (They never saw Bugs Bunny?-yes that dates me!) He asked where would they get a rabbit to eat? They said in the freezer at the grocery store! Gotta love 'em, right?
I prefer farm videos to have natural sounds and no music. So videos like this one that are less work for you get my vote. Also, I am surprised/saddened that you have to keep explaining the physiology of horses to people. I assume what you are showing us is how things should be done. If I have questions I do more reading. Thanks for sharing. Glad to see the tractor working at the end.
Seems to be the common opinion! I'm listening, and ready to do more natural sounds!!! 👏😊 Yes, sometimes I can 'over explain' our choices, or why we make certain decisions. But there are also some people that tend to think it's mean that the horses are out in the snow. 🤔 I think I need to put 2 bales near the horses at a time, just in case the tractor decides to go on vacation again, haha!
I have worked on commercial horse breeding farms and I can tell you that not every horse is in a spotless barn. They are out in the snow just like your animals. The broodmares are placed in the barn when they are close to the foaling, otherwise they live outside. As long as animals have shelter from the wind and cold rain, and have roughage to eat to help generate heat, they are OK. Thanks for sharing the life. I know that it is challenging, but at the same time at the end of the day one feels like they have accomplished something.
That is the general 'norm' is for most horses to live a happy life outdoors. Rarely seeing the inside of a stall. Especially for average horse owners like ourselves, it's not like we have farm hands designated to making sure the farm as a certain 'appeal'. Manure is part of life. 🤣 Thanks for sharing, I appreciate that you get the reality of it all!
Yall clearly care. I really appreciate seeing how ya manage w out the tractor im sure you have a bunch of other things to be doing. You poor dear. Hope your cmptr w boot up to make more vlogs. I'm new to ur channel. I appreciate Ur explaining what's going on w out extra editing. I hope u keep up the good work. Thumbs n subscribd
Thanks for joining! 😊 Animals need to be fed, regardless of how much work it might be sometimes! New computer is up and running, so vlogs will be coming regularly now.
I remember living on the farm and doing morning and evening chores in that kind of weather. I remember carrying 5 gallon buckets of water and some spilling on my pants. The legs of my pants were frozen solid by the time I went inside. We raised hogs, chickens, beef cattle, 3 milking cows, and a horse. I remember having to use a sledge hammer to break ice.
That was my winter last year. Hauling water for 8 or 9 horses during these cold snaps was BRUTAL. Yes, getting covered in water and having frozen pants was normal. You are well accustomed to the reality that comes with this life! 😊
Oooohhh I feel you, icecold, snow, no tractor working, I HATE it! Plus we don't have a heated water thing (you once told me the word, but I forgot it, I only and proudly remember brain fart 🥳😆). Pls more of that kind vocabulary teaching for us German viewer 😆. Thanks for the info of your poor new goat, very interesting, had no idea of goats hooves. Hope she'll get better soon, and also your tractors awaking again (maybe the diesel is frozen?), and that you've got (or can buy) enough quality hay for the winter 🙏🏻. AND that people understand that a normal, healthy horse with a thick coat does not need a blanket at all. Love your video so much, as always, don't need no fancy music ❤
You're the best! 😊 The heated water thing is an automatic waterer. I think we need to find a more clever name for it though! 😅 I'm hoping Robyn's hooves improve, she looks so sore. 😭 The tractor battery was just too cold to start, plugging in the block heater helps a ton when it's-25! Blessings on you!
Look into tree hay fodder for your livestock for the lean times. It's probably not ideal for horses but is a viable stop gap measure , goats however will do extremely well on it. Like others have said I prefer the "raw" style content over the over produce. Keep up the good work.
I have never seen that offered in our area. I doubt anyone makes it. If we do run out or need to stretch our hay, we have access to hay cubes that can be soaked and fed out to goats and horses. 😊 Hopefully my calculations were correct, and we have enough feed. So far so good! Thanks for your feedback and input!
@Liltroyerfarm If you have Alder, Aspen, or Birch on your property making a modest amount of tree hay is something you could do yourself , it doesn't require any investment in equipment you probably don't already own.

@politicallyincorrectmechan7989 We have mostly poplar, cottonwood and willows. And a few birch. I searched it up, seeing as we are in winter season already, making tree hay isn't an option right now. But, in the future it is an idea to keep in mind!
Coucou Merci encore pour le partage de ta vie rude, je ne porte pas de jugement car je n'ai pas vécu dans une région aussi froide de ma vie, et ne pas mettre en danger tes mains est normal car si tu blessais gravement tes animaux en pâtiraient car tu ne pourrais plus t'en occuper autant les chèvres ont l'air d'aller bien et savent naturellement se mettre dans l'abri l'une contre l'autre pour se préserver du vent, comme tes chevaux qui tu le dis tres bien sont nés dans cette région et connaissent le cycle des saisons. contente de voir que le tracteur a refonctionné et que tu as pu rapproche une balle de foin de l'enclos trop belle les lumières de noel dans la neige, on se croirait au pays du pere noel
Kid sled wouldn't be big enough. A really large calf type of sled would work, also called a skimmer sometimes. Otherwise, it's just as much work taking pitch Fork loads back in forth. Hence the grieving over the tractor not working that day!
Grace has an abscess deep in her hoof. A professional farrier HAS looked at her, has started draining it, and has said that because of the position of the abscess that it will take time (several weeks) to move down and fully heal. Our farrier has seen more hooves than our local vets have.

You are doing a great job. Also, I like "raw" footage better. I love all the natural sounds. Makes it more real.😊
👏 Sounds like the common opinion! More raw footage coming up!

Someone criticized all the horse manure in the barnyard, so basically I told them they could come shovel it for me in -25°C....no response yet. 🤣🤣
No matter how organized you are there are always going to be more tasks than you can ever get done in a day. Sometimes you just have to prioritize. ❤
🤣 You speak truth again! It's all about prioritizing for sure.
I live in NE Alberta and appreciate how difficult it is to function is all that snow and cold. Happy Holidays.🎄

I remember living on the farm and doing morning and evening chores in that kind of weather.
I remember carrying 5 gallon buckets of water and some spilling on my pants.
The legs of my pants were frozen solid by the time I went inside.
We raised hogs, chickens, beef cattle, 3 milking cows, and a horse.
I remember having to use a sledge hammer to break ice.
We didn't have snow boots. We wore boots that went over our shoes. Our feet were frozen by the time we got done
That was my winter last year. Hauling water for 8 or 9 horses during these cold snaps was BRUTAL. Yes, getting covered in water and having frozen pants was normal.
You are well accustomed to the reality that comes with this life! 😊
Eesh...yeah, good winter gear can make all the difference.
Perfect
Oooohhh I feel you, icecold, snow, no tractor working, I HATE it! Plus we don't have a heated water thing (you once told me the word, but I forgot it, I only and proudly remember brain fart 🥳😆). Pls more of that kind vocabulary teaching for us German viewer 😆.
Thanks for the info of your poor new goat, very interesting, had no idea of goats hooves.
Hope she'll get better soon, and also
your tractors awaking again (maybe the diesel is frozen?), and that you've got (or can buy) enough quality hay for the winter 🙏🏻.
AND that people understand that a normal, healthy horse with a thick coat does not need a blanket at all.
Love your video so much, as always, don't need no fancy music ❤
You're the best! 😊
The heated water thing is an automatic waterer. I think we need to find a more clever name for it though! 😅
I'm hoping Robyn's hooves improve, she looks so sore. 😭
The tractor battery was just too cold to start, plugging in the block heater helps a ton when it's-25!
Blessings on you!
Look into tree hay fodder for your livestock for the lean times. It's probably not ideal for horses but is a viable stop gap measure , goats however will do extremely well on it. Like others have said I prefer the "raw" style content over the over produce. Keep up the good work.
I have never seen that offered in our area. I doubt anyone makes it.
If we do run out or need to stretch our hay, we have access to hay cubes that can be soaked and fed out to goats and horses. 😊 Hopefully my calculations were correct, and we have enough feed. So far so good!

Thank you so much 😊
Omg remember when I first went to Canada in the 80s, young stupid and completely naive, oh boy was it 🥶
It can be shocking for sure! 😅 It still shocks me every winter and I grew up here, haha!
Do you have a kid sled you could load with hay and pull. Or would that be harder than using your pitchfork?
Kid sled wouldn't be big enough. A really large calf type of sled would work, also called a skimmer sometimes. Otherwise, it's just as much work taking pitch Fork loads back in forth. Hence the grieving over the tractor not working that day!

WHY DON'T YOU GET A VET TO LOOK AT HER HOOF. I'M SURE THEY CAN FIX IT FOR YOU.
Grace has an abscess deep in her hoof. A professional farrier HAS looked at her, has started draining it, and has said that because of the position of the abscess that it will take time (several weeks) to move down and fully heal. Our farrier has seen more hooves than our local vets have.
