  • Our blue slate turkey is laying eggs for the first time which only happens once a year. We've incubated some of her eggs and they are starting to hatch! Plus, new Silver Fox bunnies were born and let's check on the young pigs.

    Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
    We put out 2 new videos every week! Tuesday and Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

    Totally agree. You have a responsibility to the animals in your care, you do what you can and what you must!

    Amen. Why would you want him to suffer. Treat an illness it’s the right thing to do. People who don’t farm have no clue. We always treated our sick animals.

    • @shannonstephens4245

      if you dont treat them you dont keep them long! I give all my animals what they need! Be Safe!!

    • @Forevertrue
      @Forevertrue 4 года назад +7

      Absolutely correct. I would never be so selfish to let them suffer in lieu a temporary antibiotic. Only a fool would throw away a valuable animal.

    Quick lesson in rabbit colour genetics:
    Blue is caused by the dilute gene acting on a black colour base.
    Lilac is caused by the dilute gene acting on a chocolate colour base.
    That "tan" is a lilac fawn and that other baby is a sooty fawn aka tort.

    @DocJaeBass 4 года назад +97

    Absolutely YES on the antibiotics as medicine for a sick animal. It's the antibiotics for growth in the stock pens that's the problem - not at all what you guys do.

    • @gingerreid8569
      @gingerreid8569 4 года назад +5

      Yes, on giving the shots...if I am correct, the drug is out of system in days...so by the time of butcher, I wouldn't think it would be an organic meat issue...we only raise for us...so not worried...We all try to be drug/chemical free, but sometimes...you have to do it...BTW, I am sure you know, but when pumpkins come out...the seeds are a natural dewormer for pigs, also rabbits and good for chickens too...we have about 15 pumpkin seeds planted and coming up...our goats, horses, chickens, rabbits will all get them...next year, we plan to do pigs again...

      Sorry I’m just wondering what surgery? I didn’t see anything about anyone having a surgery? Perhaps your close to the family and know something? Or maybe you are referring to a surgery that he had previously? I think it was a hernia surgery? I think that was last year?

    Antibiotics used to treat something is a lot different than when they give them proactive and are kept in horrific conditions. I agree with what you have done completely. We are the caregiver of the animals. Yours a living the life that they are meant to live. This is a huge difference than the factory farms.

    Great job on hatching! I had a Sears redwood 400 egg wet hatch incubator with deep trays for geese. 28 day hatch. I removed the turners and wrote the start dates on the side the eggs. Turned them twice a day by hand. Dates UP...Dates DOWN. Averaged a 98% hatch rate and really enjoyed the process! I wish Sears still had a farm catalog...
