It is so nice to see people who give when they see a need.I think a lot of that has been lost in the modern times we live in.In my father's day, everyone had milk cows and pigs so when you slaughtered a pig you would give your neighbors fresh meat and they would do the same so that way you could have fresh meat more often.If you had an abundance of milk and your neighbor had none you shared then when their cow came into milk if your cow was dry the favor was returned.I like the idea of work parties it is more fun to work on someone else's project than your own many hands make for light work.It was good that you gave them a mix of pullets and older girls.
So sweet to show the kids giving isn't always about buying things for people. What a wonderful way to thank someone ! ❤️
Free milk is one thing, but a FREE cow...........WOW! .....and then giving back. I wonder which felt better. I love how the children are part of the roundup and the lesson learned.
Oh my Gosh! Watching your children catch those chickens is the most adorable thing! I cant wait until I can watch my grandchildren play with the animals. How sweet it is to be able to give to someone; even if they gave to you first.
Justin gave you chickens to help you & Art & now you are passing on that blessing help. ;) (not to mention regifting someone who has given you a cow!) That's always how neighbors used to behave and I love seeing you guys do that. Bri...your genuine smile makes me smile... and I just love that! And you are making me want Silkies now...they are so gentle.
Being blessed and being a blessing in return. Isn't that what community is all about? :)
i am taking steps to start building up my own soil, and its all thanks to you & paterra. i have a very small dead lawn in my back yard because of the drought. i am sprinkling chicken manure, then adding a bale of hay, then adding some grass clippings from a neighbor and letting it overwinter. i live in the burbs and thats going to be our second small vegetable patch. i am so excited. wee!
Joyful is so cute. She makes me smile. All the kids are beautiful, but she reminds me of myself growing up on the farm. Bri you have a wonderful family. Your blessings are abundant.
Lol!I saw the title and said"Whaaat!?!That's nice.You were blessed and now you're a blessing.Your garden looks great!
I'm sooooo glad 9 of the 12 hatched. I hope you enjoy them! Don't let anyone scare you about silkies! They are easy!those are Dorothy and Cassanovas babies! lol god bless y'all
You're raising your children well Brianna, I know Arthur is proud of you as his bride and the mother of his children. That's how I was raised. I know it when I see it. God's blessings on you and your's.
I have been so crazy busy, I have missed a few of your videos. I cannot believe how beautiful your farm is. Your family has done so much work on it and it shows. Thank you for sharing
I love a joyful reaction to get rid of the birds just shows a child's point of view you doing a great job keep up the hard work
What a lovely place! Same as how your family lives simply in harmony with the nature. I also wish to have my own farm and a family like yours... So much blessings!! Happyness
Joyful definitely lived up to her name today because she made me laugh out loud with her oh so serious "I can't catch a chicken" . Much needed after a long day at work! Your kids make me smile so big
So funny because just before that I thought she was doing better than her mom.
You all are working so hard and creating a wonderful farm and life! Thank you for sharing it with us all!!!
What a beautiful day at the farm! Indeed, blessings everywhere we look!!
How great that you can give back. "I can't catch a chicken" - so cute and what a character!!
i only recently discovered your video blog and I amLoving all the heart warming videos of you two and the children growing up on the homestead. thank you so very much for sharing your days with us.
Helping somebody with chickens, planting in the beautiful garden with the cat and the nice straw-bedding wondering how somebody can give this a thumb-down.
Thanks for sharing, keep u the good work.
Looks like good people are around good people like you. Getting a free cow is great and giving back chickens is great indeed.
what a good gift. Yes that is awesome that you can give back. I save my energy and do my chicken collecting after they go to roost in the evening. It is so much easier to just pick them straight up off their perch than trying to catch them, besides the potential injury/harm the hens could occur from a possible egg busting inside them. Blessings to you, thnx for sharing.
So great that you can give back! I hope whatever caused the " chicken massacre" has been fixed so it doesn't happen again.... Like getting an electric fence??I look forward to starting my homestead next year and being able to give from my abundance as well. Blessings!
You have such a sweet family, with good values. I love watching you all! Keep up the good work, your a great mom!
What a blessing you are to each other, bartering the chickens for the cow.
Thank you for sharing your video homestead it amazing to watch your video 🐔🐓🐥🐂🐏🎥👍👍👍
You received Dolly and you returned their gift by giving them chickens, how wonderful.
Sweet little Justin caught him a chicken! He is so gentle with the little dibbies! Beautiful garden too! Joyful is a camera ham!😄
Great video! And this is the heart an soul of homesteading. Neighbors helping neighbors. It's how it used to be a long time ago.
an easier way to catch the chickens is wait til they go to sleep. (night time ) much less running.
Fantastic day for you guys. You are one hard-working woman! As always your kids are lovely.
I am watching you from Greece and I love all your videos, you are doing a great job. My husband and I grew up that way and I understand what you are showing to all of us. keep up the great job you are doing! Nena
I so agree...This year I gave all my extra tomato, pepper and flower plants and it was lovely.
Oh my gosh when Joyful sat on that spade. I can't even, haha! That kitty has a loud motor.
You guys do such a beautiful job editing and putting your videos together. Thanks for all your hard work. Your garden looks beautiful as well!
Your chucks look so full of beautiful, shiny, healthy feathers! Those have got to be great eggs!!!
I really love the way you speak to your children. I can feel your love and patience. thank you for that.
Crafty Fairy... She is a hypocrite. Nice now, un till they grow up and end up in her plate... 👿 Not saying anything about the male chicks that have to end up dead because to them are useless... if that's not pathetic, don't know what, who else is?!
Those grubs are crane fly larve, which turn into crane flies (daddy long legs) they eat at roots under the ground mostly grass roots but can damage your vegetables so feed them all to the chickens👍
Loved this video that I had to be sure to like and comment. Loved seeing the kids so comfortable around the animals. Was especially cute when your daughter looked into the camera and said she couldn't catch one 😃.
You are such a blessing. God says to love our neighbors and you do that all the time. The Lord loveth a cheerful giver.
Joyful made me laugh, "I can't catch a chicken" sweet girl😀
The rooster doesnt like the noise the hens make when caught. He thinks they are in danger and its his job to protect them. Be careful of him, if he gets too bold he may attack one of you.
I love Joy's expressions. Your kids are so cute.
to funny " i cant catch a chicken with that sad face" lol i love it when your kids get involved..
Y'all started you garden after us and your is beautiful. I meant ours is beautiful but we are very impressed with yours. We think you have better weather than us. Good Job. Also good trade, A Pregnant Cow for chickens. You are blessed.
Blessings everywhere....
Btw that dress looks fantastic on you 😉
Sarah Matthews. I was just trying to discern that whatever calamity took out those chickens didn't happen again with the chickens Art and Bri are giving them....that's all.
If you have chickens, how do you keep them from getting your chickens??
Lots of hard work, but you all are living the dream...I can see it only getting better...
I wish I could come and visit this place for a week and experience countryside life
Oh wow that worked out great a blessing for a blessing !! Y'all are doing great!!
Joyful is a great camera person! I laughed so hard with that one little comment. So candid!
same! haha
I just love the way chicks sound!
The kids are really good at catching them!
Chuck

We are hoping to do meat birds next summer. This is our first summer on our new homestead. Our laying hens, fencing, and milk goats took priority this year.
I love love my silkies they're the sweetest girls. They actually want to be held. I wouldn't be too worried about mixing them with your flock my friend has had good luck. I was actually given two silkies for free and they were my first chickens and we are hoping to mix them in with some younger hens.
Some things you give are more valuable than money. Time is more valuable than money. You company and talent sometimes, mean more than cash.
Bri is looking good. Well done and nice update!
Many blessings.

new life on the farm is always enjoyable =)
I started watching your video again . We miss you.
The garden is looking amazing!
Haha I remember thinking of how cute our chickens were when we first brought them home as chicks....Then they grew up and decimated our garden!!!! 😂
When my birds leave I do it at night. Way easier to take them off a roost, no chasing or stress.
You are looking good Bri, I am not speaking of your dress although it is very pretty. Your coloring, just everything about you looks healthy........you glow.
HA! You just reminded me... I have to put more straw on my potatoes (we grow our Red Pontiacs on top of the ground).
hi i watch you guys from Australia. loving to be able to give back and share with people is a beautiful thing. here in Australia a friend of mine Andrew barker has set up a movement called Grow free! its moto is" give what you can take what you need". we have a face book page if you look up grow free. its about sharing with local comunity any exess produce and stopping waste. we have sharing carts (over 100 now) for people to put any produce for any one to take. but we are also about working bees, teaching children, making food free and just "being the change". we would love for grow free to go international and when i saw this vlog it made me think you guys would be the perfect people to maybe set up your own grow free cart and start the movement over there in the USA. We have had kids start carts here we have a 10 year old who runs and maintains a cart (very proud of that kid) anyway cheak us out on face book see what you think. im not good at adding links and stuff sorry. grow free is for everyone no money ever changes hands. not even about bartering just true giving. btw love you guys and the roads watch both familys every day.
A lot of Churches here sponsor "Joseph" tables, the same concept and is good for everyone.
ok ive never heard of them as im in Australia. we are more then just the shareing tables we also grow seedlings and give them away so anyone can learn to grow there own food. we are also not part of any church or religion. just a group of people wanting organic food to be for everyone not just the select few. i think we have hit over 10,000 members mainly in south Australia but a few in Melbourne now. plus i found out today we have a few people looking to start carts in USA so super happy about that. glad you have a simular thing over there. shareing with comunity is the best.
You can give **cough cough** interrupting roosters! haha
Wow! Look at that garden
Awesome, returning favors given you.
I love the kids enjoyin life...❤
Bri, that dress suits you so well! It's so beautiful! 😍
I enjoyed the video! Keep it up!
Did you soak the beans before you planted them it can give you an extra week or two of growing
Hi 🇮just subscribed to your channel really love your life with lovely family and the kids .. Have a good day and nigh. 😊😉From Thailand
Please do not give Bean hulls to the Cow...or hogs either...the pointed end on a mature bean can punchure their intestine...My husband threw out bean hulls to the hogs and killed most of them...
I have put straw in my garden before and the weeds were the worst they have ever been..any ideas what I did wrong? could there have been seeds in it? thank you
such a beautiful garden
You have done a good deed.
I mentioned this in our last video, and it is something others might do in their area. we opened a facebook page for the sole purpose of helping others, on this page we only allow items to be posted that are being given away for free or for trade, or if you are looking for something for free, nothing for sale is allowed on this page,
❤️Giving always feels yummy
Was that loose-poled fencing the electric kind with wire wrapped inside the polymer? Ive seen videos by Joel Salatin using it, and it looks somewhat like that.
The kids are so cute!!
You guys are goals for me! ❤
Lovely garden
Another great video, full of inspiration! What did you mean by planting your beans with the corn to "grow up the stalks"?
I really m issed you abd Art vlogging. Glad you're back.
?? We have been posting videos every day.
Blessings!
Hi Art & Bri! I was wondering if you could post what your chicken feed mix is? Or do a video that breaks it down! I would love to know the amounts of each type of food you're mixing together & what grains you are soaking for them! Thanks so much & God bless!
Lara @tHIS FARM
Thanks for sharing!
i breed silkies and they are beutifull, i love mine and they have there own personality.
No! This was the only channel werenI could see Justin's flock
Did you watch the video?
I'm so glad I watched this video, because when I saw the title I thought what's wrong with her? I thought the idea was to build the flock not give them away! Thinking is was a decision made in haste. LOL but then you explained about The people that gave you Dolly and an unborn calf. And their chickens had recently been wiped out. So you were just paying it forward basically. LOL I had no right to think that in the beginning anyway, their your chickens to do with what you want and who am I to get worked up. LOL but I guess looking forward to the video's everyday I've gotten sort of attached to the animals too. I was even bumming when you decided to quit milking the goats. Because you wanted to bond with the cow. LOL I thought poor goats, well out with the old in with the new. 😀 Don't worry Joyful, I felt the same way about the Chickens until your Mommy explained it was helping the nice people that gave you Dolly. Wow how cool was that? To just give you a bred Jersey! I sure do understand why you wanted to help them out. What a great vlog today.
How do you keep chickens warm enough during the winter? If that's a stupid question, sorry, but I wanted to know. Love your videos and just subscribed :)
