Love the progress on this project. Goats are HARD WORK. They are not easy. Im sure some viewers are looking at the baby goats and thinking they are so cute, and they are! But they soon become bigger goats, and i admire yoir daughters love for them, and her goals, because they aren't as easy as other farm animals. They are a commitment. Lol Kudos to the Goat Mama 😊
What excitement to get her out of that tank....she is a real trooper! Adeline is a Queen of a magnificent Goat Palace. The big boys are learning a ton and getting stronger. Thanks again for allowing all of us to share your journey at the Homestead.
I love your idea for trellising a flowering plant. We just drove back from Chandler to Texas and I must say Phoenix is awash in color. My daughter has a Cape Honeysuckle. Blooms red orange trumpet flowers from spring to fall. Bougainvillea is another gorgeous shrub. Have a fun time adding color to the goat barn!!
Been loving this build; well done all! Just a quick word about the graywater drain under the sink. The p-trap is only necessary in a "closed-loop" septic system, where water remains underground for the entire treatment process. The trap prevents sewer gases from migrating back up the sink. You have an open system, with no connection to a sewer system; hence no gases. In fact, the function of the trap will be detrimental in this application; the water will turn fetid, and could possibly cause odors in the garden bed outside. Just for the record, I have never built an open system like this, but when I installed a closed-loop graywater system for my laundry room, I read Art Ludwig's "Create an Oasis with Greywater: Integrated Design for Water Conservation, Reuse, Rainwater Harvesting & Sustainable Landscaping ." He details a system just like the one you installed, and he recommends no p-trap for the above reason. Hope this is helpful. Keep up the good work!
If we didn't have a barrier, then bugs would just come up through the pipe into the milking room. Since Adali is milking twice a day we're not really worried about the water in the ptrap getting gross. It'll be constantly refreshed.
Had to say "yay Jax" that transition is the most difficult and confusing but the "my parents are mean and dumb" transition is so pleasing to older "parents", love from Mitch and Judy
Making a good, functional, sustainable life. That goat shed looks fantastic. I may just copy quite a few of your ideas, and I love the colour you painted the container. Hmmm-hmmm.👍
Well, the goat barn is looking great. Are you going to paint the top of the container white to try to help minimize solar heat radiation into the container?
GREAT JOB! SUGGESTION YOU COULD HAVE YOU COULD HAVE A WATER TROUGH WITH AT THE 😊OVERFLOW LINE DUMPING INTO IT TOO CATCH THE WATER. HAVE A GOOD WEEK AND GOD BLESS.
really great team work!! love the kittens everything is looking Amazing I was feeling your daughters energy as she was squeezing back out and Cheered for her!! then the sign lol 🤣 Love that your using the water for the plant bed, its going to look spectacular..
Try a Bower vine…. It climbs and does well in Southern California. They come in pink or white flowers and remains green year round. Love your videos…your furry family is growing rapidly!
This is a huge milestone for the barn and for her getting her goats 🐐 tended to!!! Yay Ada to the rescue. Better hurry and get the rest of your tanks finished before she grows!!!!
Oooooo....kitties! They are soooo cute! OMG Bees. I have two swarms that have taken up house in one of my storage trailer walls, and the other in a trailer that one of my helpers is staying in...the good news is that we have found someone who will take them away and NOT kill the Killer Bees...we need them, but not here on the homestead! lol
Thats great having water at the goat barn.. I think each person should paint a water tank do murals so it fades into the landscape. Aww the kittens are cute. ❤
That cactus is gorgeous! I'm so glad you were doing this project while it was in bloom to remind us why you would keep something that prickly growing right beside such a busy work area.
I've returned home to Minnesota and got my wonderful note from you guys. That made me feel real good guys, thank you. I'm having to go through a divorce so that really touched me. You've helped me to get through this. I've been visiting my grown, 18 and 19 year old boys since I got back. I'm staying with friends. My boys still live at home with their dad. He's a great father. I think the under-layment is a good idea for the roof. So many people have leaks in low slope roofs! Overlapping sounds like a great plan too. That was a perfect catch Jax! Jax is growing like a weed! Is that cat Yum-Lin (sp?)? I keep forgetting how his/her name is spelled, sorry. Wow, that ground looks hard to "trench" through! I'm so impressed with this build guys. Incredible! Perfect drilling for the drain for the sink! Just tighten the couplers more to prevent leaks. It's not under pressure so it can be done. Congratulations! Water supply side plumbing is easier because the connections are made not to leak. I did Pex B fittings at my farm. I like the planter there. That white Pex doesn't like sun exposure so filling the trench up is a great idea because of that too. Such cute kittens! It's so cute how the animals are so loving to you guys. It's good you remembered to block the hot water part of the faucet. Instant water heater in the future? Killer bees?! I'm glad you ducked! I remember Ada inside the other tank cleaning it out! Good advice to do an overflow for the tanks. Yay, no bugs into the tank from the overflow. Wow, that looked hard for Ada to climb out. Wonderful, an outdoor spigot! Great that the drain can go into the raised bed, brilliant! The pump set-up under the sink is nice. Great progress guys! Thanks for this video Longnecker family!
Wow what a beautiful goat barn. Your work is always perfect. Could hardly wait for you guys to continue with your house. The way you built that goat apartment, I’m pretty sure your house will be more than perfect…
I don’t miss a single episode. I love your content and family. Your video skills are amazing. And B rolls? Astounding! And of course I am in love with Ashley!
Wow! Better get the water tanks for your house in place and cleaned before Ada gets any bigger. She is so skilled and gracious about doing that chore for the family.
Great chance to use a snow shovel in the desert, at 20:02! 😂😅 I will have to rewatch this later because I keep getting distracted by my own animals and chores. Job well done!
Nice job. Don't let the OSB get wet because it will fall apart. I used some on a chicken coop and it lasted less than five years and it was heavily painted too.
This is Awesome what ya all have done !! Quick Question, Where do ya all go for water for the water buffalo and curious what they charge ya per gallon to fill it ?
Do you know the trick of convincing the dogs not to jump when you don't want them too? Stiff arm, hand tilted so when they jump they hit their forehead on the heel of the hand, they will get the idea real fast. A good idea to teach them if you want them to behave around guests. Its also easy to teach to guests who don't want them to jump on them.
I see the cat, but I don't see the hot tin roof. There is a reason for the confined spaces warning tag. Please be careful. If you have a battery powered leaf blower, it would be on the side of caution to blow out any chemicals that make up the plastic container. Plastic never quits breathing.
Check, check, check....ticking things off the list!! What a good feeling and everything is looking great!! Mama Hammerclaw and her kittens are too cute!!!❤❤❤❤🌈🌈🙌🙌
The Tank is a lil bit closer to the fence.. a brave coyote or wild animal can use that to jump into the goat pen... move the tank about 12 inches (1 foot) away.
At 11:00 Ashley your eyes look so gorgeous 😍 Maybe it's the lighting, maybe its that unique shirt you're wearing 🤫 You're so pretty Ashley ❤ -Lana (I had to specify because it might be a little creepy coming from my husband Rob 😂)
I tell you what I'm fixing. Get rid of my Waterfield system on my house. It's only been used for a month or 2. Maybe 3 months at the most. And we got one under our sink. Just got up pressure tank on on it. The we only used it for coffee felt love for filtering water for coffee. We got a new system that we have in the house now, if y'all were in dallas, you know it's worth about three thousand dollar, but also tell you for about twenty five
I'm pretty sure the label was saying not to allow shadow people from dimension 42 into your water. Ada's fine. (Did you consider putting in the overflow and cleaning out the tank on its side? -- naaaaahhhhh that would never work;)
Wow this project is really coming together I cannot wait to see it with the roof panels! Can I ask an unrelated question? How do you keep your dreadlocks so tight? Do you use a crochet hook? Pretty please share your secret as you have perfect dreadlocks!
HELLO from 🇨🇦 near Sudbury Ontario ☺️ No matter what details you have or are going to add are all AWESOME and I love the idea of dual purpose thingies 👍🏻 Love the color of the Goat barn, it looks awesome... Adali you must be soooo Happy of the almost finished outcome/realization of your vision 💕 ✌️💗🙏😇🕊️🥰
The goats have their own Ramada Inn. You have your Airport. What is next for your infrastructure, a grocery in the chicken compound? How deep is your frost line?
I definitely noticed that Jax seems a lot older and then I thought, "wait a minute! they're all getting older, it's as if every year they get older, what the heck?" just sayin'
Don't know if you have it available in your area but there is a pump like what is on shampoo or hand cream that will fit into the hole that is leftover on sink. It has a hose below it to be put into a gallon bottle of whatever you want. I have one on my bathtub with shampoo and one in my laundry room for hand soap. A friend uses hers in her laundry for homade spot cleaners. Just a thought.
And the hero of the day is.... ADA!!!!!
Love the progress on this project.
Goats are HARD WORK. They are not easy. Im sure some viewers are looking at the baby goats and thinking they are so cute, and they are! But they soon become bigger goats, and i admire yoir daughters love for them, and her goals, because they aren't as easy as other farm animals.
They are a commitment. Lol
Kudos to the Goat Mama 😊
That would be me they are so mischievous and cute as babies 😮glad you're a committed lover Adalia ❤ this was amazing and fun Thanks for sharing 😅
Been there done that never again.
28:13 The shot of decal about don't go in the tank was really funny.
This whole project has turned out so well. Can't wait for you to get the metal roof on and all the solar set up. Just a great job start to finish!
The blooming cactus is beautiful
What excitement to get her out of that tank....she is a real trooper! Adeline is a Queen of a magnificent Goat Palace. The big boys are learning a ton and getting stronger. Thanks again for allowing all of us to share your journey at the Homestead.
The WHOLE FAMILY worked hard for this container. Kudos to you
7:30 to 8:30 Why are those humans talking over the great thrilling story of hesitance and then courage? 😲😉
I love your idea for trellising a flowering plant. We just drove back from Chandler to Texas and I must say Phoenix is awash in color. My daughter has a Cape Honeysuckle. Blooms red orange trumpet flowers from spring to fall. Bougainvillea is another gorgeous shrub. Have a fun time adding color to the goat barn!!
The kittens are so cute.
It’s all so cool! The container looks so good with the new paint on it! And such sweet kitties!! Yay for the Legend-Dairy Goat Barn!!

@@TinyShinyHomeWow, thanks for taking the time to reply! I understand the reasoning. Cheers! 😊
Your family has accomplished so much on the Goat Barn. It is looking so good too. Loads of work done on it in this video. Kittens are adorable.
Your goodness is so welcoming 😀 views spectacular,❤ The children are so fun, helping out, is a reflection of your beautiful family 💖
The underlayment will protect the chip board from condensation produce from the tin roof.
Correctomundi!
Had to say "yay Jax" that transition is the most difficult and confusing but the "my parents are mean and dumb" transition is so pleasing to older "parents", love from Mitch and Judy
Hack: get a few stick on tiles and put on floor of under sink cupboard. Real easy to clean and looks good!
you cn get shallow silicone trays for under pet food dishes, you could put one under the pump as it would catch minor drips and be easy to clean
Making a good, functional, sustainable life. That goat shed looks fantastic. I may just copy quite a few of your ideas, and I love the colour you painted the container. Hmmm-hmmm.👍
You have wonderful young people!

Great job, it looks beautiful and functional as your projects always are. Ada's red X was very funny haha
It looks totally awesome. Incredible job. She should be very proud of it. And it’s so functional.
Love the color of the container!! Everything looks great! HAPPY MEMORIAL WEEKEND!!!❤🎉😊 see ya next time!!
Try a Bower vine…. It climbs and does well in Southern California. They come in pink or white flowers and remains green year round. Love your videos…your furry family is growing rapidly!

Maybe the kids can do artwork on watertank decals for 👚 shirts 👕 or water cups🥤 or coffee cups ☕..if they'd like too
That cactus is gorgeous! I'm so glad you were doing this project while it was in bloom to remind us why you would keep something that prickly growing right beside such a busy work area.
Wow…you guys are amazing!
Good job! Ada now has her own private swimming pool!
Loved seeing Jax's stapling skills.
I take my hat off to u guys just never stop

Great job, real troopers! Im just thinking of yall being so much in the sun. Didnt know if yall are aware of coconut oil being a natural sun block?
Wow what a beautiful goat barn. Your work is always perfect. Could hardly wait for you guys to continue with your house. The way you built that goat apartment, I’m pretty sure your house will be more than perfect…
Great video, as always! And kittens are the icing on the cake! Adorable - I really hope some of them have mommy's moustache! ❤
I love the goat barn and the color is so pretty! Way to go Ada! You are adorable, there is no way I would get in the rain catchment! lol. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💜.
Wow the whole family, kids, goats, kittens, cats, dogs and so much work got done. This family is amazing. ✌🏻❤️🙏🏻
I don’t miss a single episode. I love your content and family. Your video skills are amazing. And B rolls? Astounding!
And of course I am in love with Ashley!
Put check valve on. External line after bury tank❤️
The RV pump has a pressure switch and check valve built in.
Wow! Better get the water tanks for your house in place and cleaned before Ada gets any bigger. She is so skilled and gracious about doing that chore for the family.
Cactus flowers are awesome!!
This barn just gets cooler and cooler!
Congratulations on your new rodent control technicians; it all looks very efficient
Great chance to use a snow shovel in the desert, at 20:02! 😂😅 I will have to rewatch this later because I keep getting distracted by my own animals and chores.
Job well done!
my dear girl, that was gutsy…I admire your gift of vacuuming the inside of water catchment container
Another great video!! 🐐
Awesome job in the goat barn. Really impressed with the awning you built.
Hope you guys are wearing hats, sunglasses and sunscreen... 🏜
Are you planning on putting larger solar panels on the roof of the goat barn?
Nice job. Don't let the OSB get wet because it will fall apart. I used some on a chicken coop and it lasted less than five years and it was heavily painted too.
Obviously;)
Yes, I've missed y'all I love y'all's video's I could watch them every day ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Cool project. I know people that don't have it that good. But life is what you make it.
Looks great!
Love to ya'll.
Beautiful work, progress, vision and yes inspiration on the good vibes of CREATING🔆
This is Awesome what ya all have done !! Quick Question, Where do ya all go for water for the water buffalo and curious what they charge ya per gallon to fill it ?

Its also easy to teach to guests who don't want them to jump on them.
Yeah. We’ve tried everything to try to get Ocho to stop jumping. He just does it to me.
Ahh, to be young and flexible 😊
I kept thinking thr worse case would she'd have to wait for enough water to float to the hatch. 😂
Good story!
FYI: That cap is, was, and will always be the best dang head covering you have.
Ada I dub you the MVP of this episode!😊
Plant some red Malabar spinach in the raise bed it grows good in the hot temperatures
Ada, If you get bored with the family hijinks, the circus always needs contortionists 🤸♀️🎪
I see the cat, but I don't see the hot tin roof.
There is a reason for the confined spaces warning tag. Please be careful.

Hammer Paw;)
Little off topic ..but have you heard about permit for mining in the playa for lithium??
In all my sinks I put 12x12 floor tiles on the base. Makes wiping up easy.
The Tank is a lil bit closer to the fence.. a brave coyote or wild animal can use that to jump into the goat pen... move the tank about 12 inches (1 foot) away.
We have an electric perimeter fence and two livestock guardian dogs. They won’t get anywhere near it.
At 11:00 Ashley your eyes look so gorgeous 😍 Maybe it's the lighting, maybe its that unique shirt you're wearing 🤫 You're so pretty Ashley ❤ -Lana (I had to specify because it might be a little creepy coming from my husband Rob 😂)

The fuchsia colored flowers on the cactus near the gray water outlet are beautiful aren’t they?
Amazing progress!!!
Were you hoping for kittens? I’m sure I missed something…
Maybe add a fan outside under the lean to, to help keep the 🪰 away
Wow this project is really coming together I cannot wait to see it with the roof panels!
Can I ask an unrelated question? How do you keep your dreadlocks so tight? Do you use a crochet hook? Pretty please share your secret as you have perfect dreadlocks!
Thanks! They're just hand formed and I don't ever go back and tighten them 🤷🏼♂️
just wondering if you have any experience with SharkBite fittings and if so what you think.
I would be so proud of myself if I had done what all you have accomplished.
THAT DECK IS SURE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
Great progress! Y'all have things looking good. Congratulations. 🎉

✌️💗🙏😇🕊️🥰
Absolutely fabulous
THE KITTENS!!! I would spend way too much time holding them. Oh and great job on all the building/plumbing stuff!
What is your trim around the edge of the roofing? That keeps the underlying blow off
Haven't put the metal roof on yet - next time :)
Anyone else catch themselves humming the Pink Panther theme song during them installing the underlayment?
We did a deep dive research project up there while I tried to explain to them what the pink panther was 😂
Aussie here, do you really get that cold there that you freeze your pipes??. Wow, what's your min max temps?
Yep. We’re at almost 5000’ elevation. We get cold.
The high desert gets cold at night
Kittens!!!!!!
The goats have their own Ramada Inn. You have your Airport. What is next for your infrastructure, a grocery in the chicken compound?
How deep is your frost line?
12”
I definitely noticed that Jax seems a lot older and then I thought, "wait a minute! they're all getting older, it's as if every year they get older, what the heck?" just sayin'

The faucet handle is too close 🤦
Lov😊e😊 it all. I enjoy plumbing. It's fun, especially when it works. Blessings
Looking so good. Those are some lucky goats. You all did a great job on the build and I am here for the rest of it.❤🎉
Good morning, how are you doing today? Looks like everything's looking good. You guys keep up the good work.
Your wife has a beautiful eyes, good worker. All of you both are amazing job
Is Jett ok, missed him
Who made the roofing tar?
