- Our chickens have gave us hundreds of eggs and we need to give something back so we are going to make them stylish new house.
Make sure you subscribe to follow our daily lives in this farm!
Hey to everyone!!
We are two young adults, Despina 22 and Deivids 23 renovating an old farm house from 1817 in Latvia. Everything in and out of our house has been done by ourselves with no hired help. Soooo far everything is going great and there haven't been any incidents.
DIY is going to apply to nearly everything in our house. Our budget is tight and that has made us appreciate every "ugly" part of this house and turn it into something new and beautiful.
We give new life to things that others would throw away!
In this journey we are not alone! We are starting up our little Farmily and part of it are
3 Goats & 2 Baby Goats
1 Mom Sheep & 2 Baby Sheep
4 chickens
1 Rooster
and 1 Goose
Oh yeah and my cat Ivi
Despite our daily problems we are two young people full of joy and happiness, ready to start a new crazy chapter in our life. It wouldn't be fair to keep this fun for us!
that's why we want YOU to be also part of our Farmily!!
Hope you enjoy our video!
We love our very supportive community!!

You two will look back someday years from now, and realize what precious times you went through. I'm a new subscriber, and have enjoyed watching your adventures. I'm a 61 year old man from the United states of America. Keep up the great work you are making great progress. Congrats on 20,000 subs.
the chickens will be happy this winter thanks for sharing
I really like how you recycle everything. Love your videos. I found your channel a couple of weeks ago and I binged watched all your videos. Keep doing a great job and stay safe.
Lesson in cutting old glass.
- Clean the surface you intend to cut with terpentine.
- Make the cut in one go.
- Place a nail lengthwise under a beginning of the cut.
- Place your thumbs on both sides of the nail and gently push.
You will see a slit speeding forward and the glass parting flawlessly!
I'm sure your chickens will appreciate their new house this winter. I love your videos, but wish they were longer.
Piew Piew is funny when he chases your car.
You are both so sweet to respect that the cute chickens feed you eggs and you want to reward them and build them a new warmer chicken coop. I love you guys you are so sensitive to animals. Goosie is so bosy to his Dad!
I love how you are reusing material to build the coop. I'm looking forward to seeing it complete.
Hello from California !! Really enjoy watching your progress !! Take care! 💕
I had a marathon, watching mini mini mini of your older videos I did not realize that you had so much content available thank you so much you are such a interesting, and talented young couple.
Love your attitude and willingness to just go for it! Music choices are ace.
I rarely comment on RUclips, but I wanted to tell you I really admire what you two are doing. Also, what a fantastic work ethic you have. We are all going through a hard time with the pandemic. I have become addicted to your channel, so a big THANK YOU from Ontario, Canada🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
It's so wonderfully heartwarming 💕💗💖to see how happy the kids 😊are with All the Love you 😍 two ❤give them!! Are you planning on using metal for the roof of the chickens coop? They will think they are living in a palace with what you are doing for them especially giving them enough time to acclimate to everything before harsh weather!!!
Great job once again BRAVO!!! 🌞
Using off cuts that way, is an excellent way to recycle usable material, save money, and achieve something of great value to you - and the chickens. I was told that cutting old glass is nearly impossible, even for a skilled glass cutter, well done for trying. Keeping up with all the projects is difficult, you are winning, but the scale of the work is very broad, so, it is good that you are still young, fit, strong and well motivated and thus able to keep up with all the work. Having good food to keep you going is essential. We are all looking forward to seeing the project progress.
You two are the best farmers in the whole wide world👌🤩❤❤❤😉😉
Nice video. Look forward to part 2! you are building a great chicken palace! the chickens will be happy!
Beautiful energy to make a wonderful world 👏
I respect how innovative you are with your resources!! You guys are awesome! And you got a little help from the goose and cat love it💖💖
Good luck with your new Coop.👍
It seems nice! You have to put a good roof on it , to the heat dont geat away....! Love you two!! Love from Portugal 🇵🇹💕
Great work guys. You care for your animals so much it’s great to watch Love when you show the animals. And I liked your long hair.
Be sure you chicken house has some good ventilation. Chickens produce a lot of moisture and the moisture is what causes combs to freeze and they can get sick. I would not add heat, but a little light on a timer will help them in your dark winters.
Great repurposing of materials! The coop is looking great. It looks more like a chicken resort. Be careful re chickens eating pears. Although pear pits/seeds contain less cyanide than apple seeds they do contain cyanide. (Years ago a friend of mine had chickens and fruit trees. She saw chickens pecking at the pits/seeds. Once they busted the pits/seeds open they continued to peck and consume pieces of the pits/seeds.) I only mention this in the hopes you do your own research.
Can't wait .....I love chickens🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓 and all the different chicken coops people design and build. Have fun guys.
a great use of a natural resource, love it guys

Looking back I am so glad Pew-pew has geese friendships … he did so love the car … but it was a kinda one way relationship 😂 … great build looking forward to part two … ☘️😘🙏
Flat nose plyers are another good tool to separate the glass after cutting it
You two Do a really great Job. I watch more and more old vids from you and i love to See the progress of the farm. A farm like that is my dream.
Hello again. Love your idea of doing a new chicken coop. It looks awesome. Don't forget they need perches to roost on at night time. Not sure if your big been house has got them...
I would be concerned about using the insulation as they could over heat. Being in the smaller coop snuggled together will keep them perfectly warm enough
. And I have to say there is something you need to be aware of in chickens.
Chickens can and even if you cleaned the coop out daily, will get a bug called 'red mite'.
Red mite hide in dark nooks and crannies of the wood during the day, then at night time they crawl along the perches climb up the chickens legs and go and feast on the chickens blood.
If you want to check if your chickens have any the best place to spot them is under their wings.
Red mite are hard shelled bugs like fleas. They can't be squished between our fingers they can be squished between the nail of your fingers and a hard surface.
Some products you can use to kill red mite that you add to their water supply or spray in the coop, make it not good to eat the eggs for a certain amount of days.. But there is a natural product that is a powder and you rub into the chickens feathers all over kills the red mite because it's like thousands of tiny shards of razor/glass and it kills them by cutting them and drying them out. It does not harm the chickens in any way and it does not have a bad effect on the eggs.
If the red mite get too populated they can drain the chickens of blood and weaken the chickens badly.
The powder is a natural product in soil around? I think it was lakes or rivers. It's been a while since I've read up on it..
When we had chickens ( for about 15 years) we tried all sorts of spray's for the chickens and liquids in thier coop and none worked properly. When we used the powder we followed advice from experts and puffed it in all corners, gaps nooks and crannies. And we coated the birds too. Paying special attention to under the wings. It stopped the red mite in their tracks worth every penny. Within a week we stopped finding any red might..
we re coated all nooks and crannies once a month In summer when it's hot they need more, less often in winter. And the chickens once every now and again or when/if we spotted them on the chicken We checked them often.. This powder is called. Diatomatious earth. ( DE, for short) It's expensive here in the UK. But with every penny.
The only thing you need to remember is to wear a mask when you puff the powder into the coop and on the chickens because it is not great for our lungs. But it really truly works and is 100% natural product. Your chickens might not get red mite for the first couple of years. But eventually you will see them. Ps if you look for them in the day it's hard to find them but shine a torch in the recesses of corners, joints , and where the perches slot in, at night time and you will see them if you have them.... They are like the size of a pin head and red... Good luck. Let me know what you think.
Thanks for the effort you put in this explanation 😊
@@BeDolphins your welcome.
Yes I use DE for my chickens and even cats, sprinkle a little on their food to kill parasites..just be careful don't inhale it, nor your animals. You can't find it here in Italy but I have a friend who buys it online a big sack and much cheaper.
@@thelandofmintYes, it's great stuff. Just so annoying that it's so expensive in some places you really do have to shop around. That must be annoying that you can't get it in Italy, thank goodness you have friends that can help💝
Cutting thin parts on the glass you can use a pair of pliers to break just go easy and a little bit at a time
Hello from Long Island New York U.S. 👋 love your channel and "farmily". Love Pew Pew too 💟 hello Pew Pew 👋 lol
I love it. I hope you finish it soon so your chickens are happier and more productive! Keep being great you two!
So good sharing 😸🖐👏
My understanding is that a heat lamp can be bad for chickens because the presence of the heat source is likely to cause condensation. Humidity and wind are worse for chickens than cold temperatures
Ah that looks fun to haved chickens
Use wax or bar soap on your screws to drive them in easier

Well done for all your hard work. Amazing!
They need sunshine too. Going to be the Penthouse, nice
piew piew and his car 🤣😂 you should drive with him on your lap or in the seat next 😁✌🏼❤❤💯💯💯💯
Dip the glass cutter in kerosene or diesel before you make a cut. It cuts smoother and the glass breaks better
Also the glass should be spotlessly clean when using the glass cutter.
Hi Despina and Deivids, Congrats on the success of your channel. I recently found you and have really enjoyed your video's. Your baby geese caught my attention one morning and your enthusiasm was so exciting! I started perusing your channel and learned about you a little and have been watching ever since. I think you are both amazing. It takes a lot of guts to tackle the life you are living. Please keep doing what you are doing. Your channel will grow bigger and bigger, I just know it. I noticed a comment about not getting enough video's up recently. August - September are the busiest time of the year on the farm, or should be. I mean, you have to get ready for winter! I love you two, so I really want to offer two bits of advice. First, you need to make compost for your garden. I haven't watched every video yet, so I may be wrong, but it seems your soil lacks humus. It looks a little sandy but dark which means rich. Humus helps hold moisture in the soil. It will lesson the need for watering. A thick mulch of the right kind will also help retain moisture. Plus you have chicken manure to compost and use as fertilizer! Thank-you so much.
Can't wait to see the chicken coop when it's finished
I love all your videos
Great Job!!
Sveiki. hope your having a great day love your videos you are hard workers
Love it.
You are so cute and everything you do, you do excellent.In another words,you are the best of the best!
Ke lindo el ganso no quiere ke te lleves su coche 🚗😁😍😍😍😍
Delightful ! It will be fun to see when it's all finished . God bless you all.
Get back here with my car! Has he ever had a ride? ❤ from CT, USA
Wind turbine made of old parts. Easy.
Hello from Tennessee
When animals can stand on the ground they get grounded and will not freeze so much.
I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Hey buddy I bought you know I did a lot of framing in my life building the houses I did pull over 12 years building houses from the ground up and I've never used a hand to cuz man or I take that back I did use them I did use the back cut saw 1 hours good now trim down on the floor
If you get some chalk, even like kids chalk and put it in your van you can stop a large amount of mold that can build from sitting and not being used. Video looking great so glad to see all the progress you guys are making!
🐔🐓 🥰
Nice video it was a hit and run but nothing really happened you start and dropped it not finished but wait for next one.
I did not know a saws blade was at a right angle to the handle ....very helpful
I didn't see the opening for the chicken's laying boxes, for getting the eggs out
❤❤ for the algorithm ❤❤
I think you just build a perfect accommodation for mices :) But still nice build :)
Hope someone donates a truck to this couple...and details their cars to look new lol
Include a vent do ammonia can escape from dropping s
How in the world did you manage to hide this structure in your vlogs. I had'nt noticed it. :) It is so cute. :)
😎👍
Good job! Babies, you need a truck
👍
Poor Pew Pew lol
PewPew is VERY upset that you won't let him ride with you in the car1❗🤣
Wonderful, chicken coop. On work of advice, please don’t put your hand in front of the camera and say goodbye. In many countries that is considered rude!! Just phase out to a field!
You shoud do live cooking...it is nice , with recipies of your country. Kisses 😍🇵🇹
🏡🐣🐔
🚗🦆 💓 🤣
LOL pew pew acts like that's her car
That pear tree does not have the kind of fruit that softens and you can just eat when ripe. It is more than likely a cooking pear. Research hard cooking pears. Can them make many things with them. No need to waste them all.
😁
Loves, your Pear tree needs to be trimmed to make better fruit
Could you spell the name of the tree over the chicken coop?
,👋👋👋👋👋❤️
Safety glasses please
👍🏻❤️🇨🇦
Pew Pew really didn't want his human to drive away, eh? Either that or he was challenging your car to a duel!
I would think someone could at least donate a farm truck. I would.
Check out these chicken coops too:

From June? He has long hair lol....
I think Pew Pew was jealous that you were moving her car/boyfriend. She is such a ham.
Piew piew is a bossy boy . 😄
And he has 2 ladie geese now to take care of 🦢🦢
Chickens can eat pear?
They eat nearly everything they can find in the garden
@@BeDolphins up until the pandemic, I thought they had to have “Feed” and gravel. Now I see in these videos that they eat bugs, food scraps, and even bigger things, mice. With all of the movement to keep chickens in yards in the suburbs, how expensive is it to keep chickens?
Clicked so fast
Why are your videos soooooo short.
Pu Pu just hates when you use his car. You might have to get a farm tractor for yourself and stop using his car.
Can't somebody other animals eat them pears
He needs a truck
Hey don't you get milk from the goats
Goats have to have babies to begin to produce milk.
You don't intend to eat any of the animals do you? I love watching your vlogs but couldn't carry on if they're gonna be used as food. Please say they're not 🤞
