Someone has probably suggested this already, but if you get a trailer load of fresh sawdust from the mill were you got the untreated timber, put a deep layer of it in the chook coop, I just did wheelbarrows loads one next to the other, the chooks will scratch around just like they did around your veges, and poo in the sawdust, it cuts down the smell of chook poo, in the winter it helps to not have the pen floor turn into a wet, muddy stinky mess, fresh sawdust of macrocarpa or pine, also helps keep mites down on the chooks, and the smell keeps the chooks lungs healthy from respiratory problems. If you really want to step up the game, throw all garden weeds, lawn clippings in on the sawdust or grow some extra greens for the silverbeet kale and such for chooks, the girls will each all the seeds in weeds, and lawn clippings and generally eat everything, and work it in with the sawdust along with their poo... in a few months you will have a well worked compost for your gardens. Remove all compost, and repeat with new sawdust. the other bonus is the sawdust gets the worms and insects to come in, which the chooks also eat, making their eaggs even more protein, You can cut down the pellets or mash you give them. I think of my chooks and ducks as compost makers 1st, and the eggs are a bonus. I haven't finished watching the vid yet, but put a couple of old car tyres in the coop and fill with dry dusty dirt, giving the girls a dust bath add some rosemary leaves, both their nests and dust baths, also deters mites on the chooks.
That fish bowl that you made 20 years ago is absolutely unreal so cool! made me think I've got to make one or 2 of them to then hopefully be using in 20 years from now for a salad. awesome video clay iv been subscribed for a while now. and now gone back through all your old rippa content can't beat a clay tall stories video in the afternoon love you're work legend keep it up🙌
Clay. The proper way to use the float tube is to sit in it as your friend shows but wearing waders and flippers to propel yourself across the water backwards. meaning the pointy end of the float tube is the front of the vessel. Happy float tube fishing! Greetings from the Highlands of Scotland.
Hi Clay ... your ‘pack raft’ is not paddle powered . You dangle legs in water and wear divers fins to propel yourself. That way you send the bow the right way and have steering. Bonus is then don’t get clumsy paddles that get in way when fishing
I have to comment haha. You're the only person I've ever seen paddling a float tube, that's not to say you can't, it's just that most everyone uses a pair of flippers and go backwards. If you've got a flyrod then troll an imitation sprat behind yourself and the fight will be insane with a kahawai. And yeah, those look like broccoli or cauli seedlings. Good on ya mate
When watering your plants in the green house its best to water early in the am and or late in the afternoon if its too hot in there you might burn the plants
My favourite way to cook is on my homemade offset smoker lpg bottle with 9kg gas bottle as fire 🔥 box with legs from a old trampoline cooks slowly but puts smoke in meat mmmm
It’s definitely a belly boat well a modern version of one wet suit legs and some flippers mate spent a lot of my younger years with one on the west coast lakes ive seen a modified one with an electric motor on it recently great for fly fishing until those monster eels decide they are hungry
Thanks clay always great Vids. Also my very first vid I watched and still one of my favourite was “Wild bush tucker” what can you eat! Awesome along with so many others cheers
Kia Ora clay my favorite way to cook food is a hangi or underground oven and another way is a good old pig on a spit oh and I love all of your content bro please keep it up every time one of your videos gets uploaded I can't wait to watch it
You did Watercress and broccoli seeds I think Clay. I have done the same thing with toilet rolls for years now, saved myself lots of money on seedling trays! How is the meat cleaver restoration going Clay?🪓 I've been on you for months now bro! Sweet as! 🦘🇦🇺👍
@27:01- Any time ya chickens make that noise clay, that generally means you chook has layed an egg. just an FYI. Our chooks aways crow like this after laying, must be a instinctual mother thing to scare predators maybe. i'm unsure
I’m always amused when Vego only people, compare taste of things to meat, Eg, it tastes like steak. If they can’t handle meat in any form why even compare with it. It’s as bad as getting milk from almonds, rice,etc. Only animals give milk. I describe myself as a Vego who likes a side dish of meat. 😉
Thanks mate love the videos keep them up all our kiwi Hunters that video and put up on RUclips like you’re self josh James the Clark bother and the rest are my idols I wish I was as good as u
this is happening all around the world, people on mass are loosing jobs. get ready for a depression, food lines, civil unrest and hard times. its going to get very bad and the effects have not even been seen in the real economy yet.
well done to your son, he has a lot of natural woodworking talent
Gotta love the hour long episodes.
Thanks Clay, enjoyable. Your son is a champ. Cheers

C.B.A. = can't be arsed. The most freeing 3 word phrase in the history of man.

Loved it Clay cheers.
Maaate.. im binge watching all your vids !!! Your kiwi ingenuity is on point 👌🏽 and love the banter .. chur bro from a kiwi in Aussie outback
Cheers mate
Good old Kiwi ingenuity clay
You should get flippers for snorkeling and use them to power the little inflatable boat
I have to comment haha. You're the only person I've ever seen paddling a float tube, that's not to say you can't, it's just that most everyone uses a pair of flippers and go backwards. If you've got a flyrod then troll an imitation sprat behind yourself and the fight will be insane with a kahawai. And yeah, those look like broccoli or cauli seedlings. Good on ya mate
Cheers
cheer's Bro this one put a smile on my dial just when i needed one
Learning some interesting fashion and haircut tips here Clay, just wish I had the hair to style lol. Chook house looks good.
Mate, you should get one of those swing away campfire cooking setups. Hooks, grill and hot plate.
They just hammer into the dirt.
Put some golf balls in the laying boxes the chickens will think their eggs.
Awesome vid mate the farm house is looking great and loved the fishing can't wait to get back out in my kayak tight lines cheers 🍻 colin 🇳🇿👍
When watering your plants in the green house its best to water early in the am and or late in the afternoon if its too hot in there you might burn the plants
Good info
And water the soil not the plant. This is coming from the manager of the largest cannabis greenhouses in nz.
My favourite way to cook is on my homemade offset smoker lpg bottle with 9kg gas bottle as fire 🔥 box with legs from a old trampoline cooks slowly but puts smoke in meat mmmm
Sounds great!
Hey bro i used to have the same inflatable small pack raft and I used to wear flippers and kick around so ur hands free to fish 👌
not sure bout that little boat in oz, me flashin white legs, be a buet surface louwer for shit that bites" haha
Eleanor has a choice hat Clay !!
Waders and flippers
It’s definitely a belly boat well a modern version of one wet suit legs and some flippers mate spent a lot of my younger years with one on the west coast lakes ive seen a modified one with an electric motor on it recently great for fly fishing until those monster eels decide they are hungry
Cheers
Thanks clay always great Vids. Also my very first vid I watched and still one of my favourite was “Wild bush tucker” what can you eat! Awesome along with so many others cheers
Happy days clay hope the birds lay mate
I hope so too
Clay been doing lots of green keto for 3 weeks so far, eat 300g of salad each night and 100g of meat and that's it, feeling fantastic!
Should turn the lock around on that chicken door so it locks from outside hha.
Hang in there mate
Kia Ora clay my favorite way to cook
food is a hangi or underground oven and another way is a good old pig on a spit oh and I love all of your content bro please keep it up every time one of your videos gets uploaded I can't wait to watch it
Yeah hangi is sweet
You did Watercress and broccoli seeds I think Clay. I have done the same thing with toilet rolls for years now, saved myself lots of money on seedling trays!
How is the meat cleaver restoration going Clay?🪓
I've been on you for months now bro! Sweet as! 🦘🇦🇺👍
Haha the meat clever has not changed mate
It looks like water cress.
With your blueberry ice cream, you should try what I do Clay, I put 1/2 Greek Yoghurt, 1/2 pure cream! 👍
Sweet as bro!
Yum
Nice ❤️
@27:01- Any time ya chickens make that noise clay, that generally means you chook has layed an egg. just an FYI. Our chooks aways crow like this after laying, must be a instinctual mother thing to scare predators maybe. i'm unsure
True.
Ive seen guys wearing diving flippers when using those inflatables
Should you brace the boat a wee bit on the sides
Download an app clay called Plantnet.. it would identify plants/ trees by just its leaves
good info
grab a plant identification app clay, most are free, take a photo of ya plant with wifi on, it'll identify what plant it is
Good idea mate. Cheers
You’re meant to use flippers on your feet, and propel the float tube backwards.
That way you’re hands are free to fish.
Yeah I since found that out after posting this thanks mate
I see that, no wukkas, buddy!
You’re a legend, by the way, incase nobody’s told you lately😉
You don't need to take them out of the toilet rolls as they will compost down
Use foot flippers for boat
Looks like some type of brassica.
Mean video clay, missing arb aka “arbinator” 🤙🏻
Currently he is on holiday
Clay Tall Stories well deserved
Just a random question don't you do any whitebaiting down there.
A bit.
@@ClayTallStoriesdo a clip on whitebaiting . Down at your local stream or wherever you may do it.
Looks like watercress to me.
Should chuck in couple cannabis plants mate.. they would absolutely pump
🤙🏾🤙🏾

this might be a dump question but is there snakes in nz ?
no snakes mate

Just the local forestry
Thanks mate love the videos keep them up all our kiwi Hunters that video and put up on RUclips like you’re self josh James the Clark bother and the rest are my idols I wish I was as good as u
I think those seedlings are brassica
Cabbages or cauliflower 🤔
cheers mate
How come that sheep still has a chain around its neck even tho it’s fenced off
Easy to catch it.
Hi Clay, do you/Eleanor know Tim Minchin’s song “prejudice”, check it out I GUARANTEE you’ll get a laugh.
Will check it out
I think you have a bad earth on that electric fence
Ok
Would ducky go in the coup or not
Nope. She lived under the dog kennel
Bro do you now that color is not real
Hope you know there's a reason why woman don't do pukana with there tongue bro woman do it with there eyes.
Oh right. I better change the thumb . cheers for the heads up
@@ClayTallStories all good brother I still cracked up.
