- We have a new edition at our Minnesota homestead... five pastured pigs.
We are a family of six homesteading on 50 acres in Minnesota. If you're interested in homesteaders, come check us out.
I love pigs. They are so cute, and very intelligent, and emotional.
Here piggy piggy! Have fun, pigs are awesome
This Minnesota gal approves, grew up on a farm in southwest Minnesota . 👍🏼🐷
I laughed through most of this video. Dude you have so much to learn! Glad dad is there. Good Luck!
My daughter is close to the east shore of millelacs lake, & is having her 1st experience with pigs, lol. All I have to say is "fences should be deer high & pig strong"... Blessings in your adventures!
Always happy when a video comes up from ya'll! Good luck on the pig journey! 🐖🐷💞
Congrats on the bacon bits! That will be some good food for your family. Every time I see you, I can’t help but think of Dan Haggarty, Grizzly Adams. I’m sure you’ve never heard that one before. Hahaha. Good luck with the piggies. So many homesteaders say that is their favorite animal to raise. Blessings, Love & Hugs from Vicki in Ft. Worth, Texas 🇺🇸❤️🐖😁🙏🙏🙏🙏
You're dad is so amazing! Speaking pig and just knowing to do nothing and they'll do what he wants. He is the pig whisperer.
What can I say? Your dad is the new star of the show. Good luck with the pigs. Hey, winter has given it up finally. Stay safe and be well! ❤️
That’s awesome! I’m not sure I could get that excited about pig snot 😜
And the movie references 😂😂
😁
I recognized some of those highways! Idk why that made me happy, but it did. MN REPRESENT :p

The burr oak will make a wonderful table, have you thought of using it for counter tops too?
I look forward to many more piggy tales!
PIGS< PIGS< PIGS, love the little bacon seeds
Ohh the trees dying is so sad. Definitely make something beautiful of them! I love your videos. Your voice is so calm. Hope the pig endeavor goes well!
Yay, you got pigs!!! Good for you :)
That's an excellent price, people are paying $100.00 a piece!
Good luck growing some fat chops👍!

I thought I got a good deal too! I cold have gotten them cheaper at an auction barn but our local sales barn closed ten years back and I didn't want to drive one or two hours to some of the others around. I once knew a Major Ganon (U.S. Military) any relationship to you? Either way, thank you for the well wishes; I appreciate it. :)

Hey, my husband was in the Navy as a boson.
Haven't heard of a Major.
James ( my late husband) died of cancer so I can't ask .

Here in Iowa my family and I just picked up our first 2 pigs ever Sunday (5/3/20)
Congrats on taking the leap, we've enjoyed (mostly) having pigs so far. I'd be a little concerned with T-posts and panels when they get bigger. This is only our 2nd year with pigs so we're FAR from experts. With how much our pigs rooted along the fencing edges and the fact one bent a hog panel dang near in half during loading last year I'm concerned about them lifting/moving the fence if there's no deterrent like a hot strand.
Thanks for the info. I'll definitely take it into consideration. Once they're bigger, I definitely think we'll move over to electric fence with little pig posts--that'll be way easier to move around out in the woods. My father says that he used to use one strand and never had a problem and he raised a lot of pigs.
You are so funny I was thinking you need a haircut and then you made the comment about a hair trimmer to cut your hair
I am so excited for you. I’m pretty sure your dad is, too!
When you said cattle panels, I told my wife the pigs will get right out.
Hope it works out for you. Take care
Always delighted when a new video comes out. Always an adventure.
Just wondering, are there any young oak trees around? Maybe watch for them and get the next 200 years started ? Really enjoyed watching the pigs = I was setting here and talking with them right along with your dad...good luck and continued good health !
New Subscriber:) Keep the faith and stay strong:)
Thank you for subscribing and thank you for the words of encouragement!
So cool we are hoping to do pigs next year. so going to definitely be watching your Journey
Glad they not that high in ms,,30 bucks is average for feeder pigs here
Oh man, pigs would totally destroy my pastures. I see you went past my office? I haven't been there in 6 weeks.
Love and Hugs from Sapulpa, Oklahoma
nice to meet you :) just subbed to your channel
Thanks for subbing! Glad to have you along for the ride. :)
I'm glad you are thinking about the future for your family. I have pigs on my homestead. I use them for meat myself. I have a few videos with my pigs. You may have paid a little much for the pigs. The pig market is way down right now. Maybe not for feeder pigs if the small farms and homesteads are trying to get their hands on them to be self sustainable. I bought two pigs at the local sale barn for fifteen dollars each that weighed twenty two pounds each. They were purchased months back when the market was good. Thanks for sharing. Your going to enjoy. Your friend Bryan. P.S. Let them get a little bigger and put them back in the cow panel pen. That's what I use. They will be fine.
How did pig raising go this summer? Hope you guys are doing well- we miss your videos!
Bacon seeds!
That old rusty milk can?? clean it up, paint and put designs on, will sell for good money.
Great idea
You look like Grizzly Adams 😉
Wow that's a great price. Compared to CA
They love marshmallows.
hope you got a roof over their heads and a heat lamp to keep them from freezing.
Yes, you need a haircut. Winter is over. LOL
Great job on the pigs! We just got 5 too....so sounds like u r actually thinking of cutting ur hair?? Oh boy if u don't by the heat of the summer I bet u will then ...hot!
Pigs 🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖 are clean messy when they eat but Bathroom 🚽 in one spot 🙂
Did you ever see the tv show Grizzly Adams?
I watched as a little kid when the show was in reruns. LOL.
@@official180degrees LOL, I watched them when they were new! 🤣😂🤣😂 I was telling David about when we had horses and I said it was.....55 years ago, my lord, how can that have been 55 years ago. Yes, time flies and before you even realize it, you too are old.
Are you OK, you don't seem to be walking real well. What breed are they?
I had an issue with my ankle. It's mostly better but it was pretty bad for a couple fo months so I'm still acting as if there's a problem. It's kind of weird but your mind gets trained to expect pain and you start walking differently to compensate. After a while it just becomes how you walk. I doubt I could go run on it but walking isn't painful so it's all subconscious at this point. Thanks for your concern. :)
Oh and they're half Yorkshire half Landrace.
it is a female tree more limbs mean female or that is what I was told
Huh. That's interesting. I'll have to look into that.
