I was the youngest of 7 girls, boy sometimes my parents would go through all those names before my name was called. I loved that moment of this video.😂
Great productive day, Rhodes family & friends! The house is looking wonderful & I pray all goes well so that you can move in soon. Blessings to everyone 🤗🇨🇦
We do 100 broilers a year. We raise Freedom Rangers. Process them ourselves. I love being able to produce these on property. So rewarding. And the taste is sooooo much better.
Raised a bunch of Cornish crosses and bagged them the same way you guys are doing 3 years ago, just brought the last one out of the deep freezer and it was good eating even after being kept that long.
I thought those chickens looked a little small. I like ours over 4 1/2 lbs. to get three days worth of meat. The sauna and cooling tub look great. I am sure the goose was happy to be with the bigger chickens rather than on the butchers block at least for today LOL
Aunt Ann’s idea so we went with it. Figured if people wanted to be blessed by giving they could be. Others could say a prayer or speak a well wish. It has meant the world to grandma that so many people showed their love and support in that way. Good guess on the remodel cost ;) Thought it’d be half that.
Funny Justin... we have one of those pvc things. I've repaired it several times in the last 6 years as the use wears out the pipe glue. But for 2 years in a row now it's held up.. we butcher 400 weekly during the season so it gets lots of wear and tear.
I saw someone else on YT make that years ago, when we started raising mb, my H made one that hangs so the birds are at angle instead of taking up table space. Bags go on from bottom to top bird and so on the process. We haven’t had any problems (yet), but we also dont do a lot of chickens.
10 days left on my first cycle. We do 2 cycles a year rather than the whole year at once. Saves on freezer space having only 6 months at a time in there AND makes processing day that much easier.
Warum schlachtet man so kleine Hühner? Einen Monat später wäre mehr Fleisch an den Hühnern. Meine Hühner haben 6-9 Monate gelebt und wurden dann geschlachtet.
I don't have a plucker so I have to hand do everything on our birds. We only do two to three at a time because of that but our Cornish also get to 20lbs+. For anyone wondering why they get so big, I try to give them the best life possible and only butcher when they start showing signs of distress or start crowing. They free range with our other birds, so lots of exercise. But one big game changer was when we started giving them an organic mix of vitamins and niacin in their water for the first three to four weeks and we have had them live long enough to lay eggs but we also don't raise a 100 at a time. We raise enough to give away birds to local families in need and have full freezers, most people think we are giving them turkeys, lol. As for picking up geese, maybe mine are just weird but....they don't bite, they worked together as a team (recently one passed away due to illness) to guard the other birds. They do attack threats to the flock and have killed a few raccoons but other than that they aren't much meaner than the ducks they guard. I pick my girls up and they hug me like a duck. (Yes, ducks hug, if they like you) Maybe it is just the way we raised them, maybe they just think they are ducks. If they were aggressive I would defiantly hold them like that but they are sweet as can be to us.
Hi.... Justin Rhodes and Rebecca and nice to see you all love watching your video homestead beautiful great good job chicken 🐓 🐔 🐣 🍗 duck 🦆 goose cow 🐄 sheep 🐑 dog🦮 🐕 pig 🐖 🐷 BYE 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👍👍👍
A piece of advice. Keep being you, Justin. You’re an awesome dad! And a husband that totally demonstrates love for his wife. showing a marriage that supports on another and brings the very best out of each other. And naturally share that with the public. And I’m always amazed at how you do not shy away from sharing the raw and real parts of life. Blessings upon you and your family.😊🦦🤙🏾🌄
I like how you tell Rebecca that it’ll work it’ll work that’s enough that’s enough because you don’t want her going back and buying more stuff saying it’s not right you want to get in your house it doesn’t have to be perfect
The sauna is portable and can be taken down and removed any time they need to relocate it or purchase a replacement… so it’s a “wet area” to accommodate everything.
@@Awenda18 Smart. nothing worse the replacing cabinets and built in furniture and finding unfinished floors and walls beneath and behind and not being able to get a match. 🤷
I hope you sent everyone home with a bird that paid for class. I don't mind Rebecca chewing gum. But it brings a smile to my face. My mom always said. "Judi, you look like a cow chewing her cud" still brings a smile to my face. God ☦️ bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 ☦️ 💙 ❤️
Just want to hopefully be helpful here. If you get a different lot of tile and the color is a little different it is not something to worry about. Open all of the boxes and check the tiles first (for defect), then shuffle the tiles from all of the boxes. We bought tile for our shower and it was actually in their instructions to do these steps 😊.
When I was a kid, my Grand Father had a real Oldie Worldie Farm, they was kind of a Home Steaders, back then there were no real big Commercial Farms. He had mayby 10 Jersey cows which he milked by hand every morning and every late afternoon, the cows would just show up from the paddocks and wait by the milk shed to be milked, I always thought his cows was away smarter that his dogs, for some reason. All his milk went to a Boys Boarding School, after WW2 there were a lot of kids with no Dads so the mothers would send the boys to boarding school, "Thats what th eboys need, Male role models", my Grandmother would always say. Well, when we visited them, it must have been a special ocasion because my Grand Dad would slaughter a chicken when we got there (They still had an ice box and a Cherosene Fridge) he would chop the head off and let go of the chicken, and all us kids would watch the chicken trying to get up and run, it was a eye opener for us, we were from the Big Town and we got our chickens from the shop, It always had my sister in tears, but next month she would stand there again,watch the whole process of decapitation and the tears start running "AGAIN!" My Grand Father would light a little bit of Brandy in a saucer an burn the very soft hairy feather/fluff, I remember the smell, it was a smell of my Grand Fathers Pipe and the shot of brandy he would drink every night before he went to bed, at eight, every night, and be up at 4 o'clock and listened to the Farmers Market Report and Weather forcast on radio while he sips his coffee with one eye closed, and the Radio blaring loudly because he was a bit hard of hearing. He blamed it on a German mine that exploded very close to him during WW1, but my Grandmother said he suffers from selective hearing, I had no idea what it meant!,lol!
We always had a system. My son would catch the birds and take them to his dad. His dad and my mom would kill and bleed them and while they were bleeding one would dunk and one would run the plucker. My daughter would cut the feet off and peel them and then I would gut them because I had the smallest hands. My daughter would jump in when she got caught up on feet to help gut, too, so we didn't get a backlog. Sometimes my son would run the plucker, but not dunk because he was too young to be around that hot of water. It worked great for the kids' ages. We all cleaned up, again according to ages.
Let your children watch the first time. Next time, give them an easy job. Thw Next year start them on easiest station, work then up as they gain confidence. With 7 children we found that the easy way because as they move up in the process stations and build confidence It becomes a great day, instead of an I don't want to day.
yes...I live on a farm that has a store and does deliveries for customers. Chicken and turkey is the only meat the farm raises and butchers, the beef and pork raised but are slaughtered at a facility. Due to regulations.
Around here people help each other out. They are happy to teach each other how to do something free of charge. It baffles me that people are willing to pay the cost of travel, price of workshop along with doing all the labor for that individual.
😂 we dont charge either, i meet ppl at TS and tell them we will bring to set up them and teach them. When we do this we have so many ppl to show up (mostly their friends) who want to learn or just help.
@@theJustinRhodesShow you don’t charge for your workshop? I know 2 channels that charge ppl to come to their homestead to learn the homesteading way for a fee, on top of that, like @sarahs_farm said, travel expenses and boarding. Yes, they get hands on experience. I watched a video while doing the deed 8yrs ago haven’t looked back since.
It Doesn't Bother me one Bit, Obviously, you were Never taught, if you Can't Say anything Nice, Don't Say anything At all 💯 Have Some Manners, We Do Down here in the South. 💯
You’re at that major point in your RUclips career that everyone wants to find something to complain about or belittle you about. Just ignore the asinine comments keep doing whatever makes you happy like you always have. You guys are rocking life right now and I’ll always be a major supporter cheering you on!
No.... Rebecca, you chew to your hearts desire any way you like.. there are no rules... maybe if you are in high falutin society, but this is your world. I'm good with you chewing your way. This is America... and it's who you are and it's what makes you Rebecca... don't listen to the crowd.
I was the youngest of 7 girls, boy sometimes my parents would go through all those names before my name was called. I loved that moment of this video.😂
As someone who grew up in a LARGE family, I completely understand the "Come here Henry...Gideon...whoever you are." Made me smile!

Great productive day, Rhodes family & friends! The house is looking wonderful & I pray all goes well so that you can move in soon. Blessings to everyone 🤗🇨🇦
I’m so excited for you that you are getting so close to moving in! I look forward to every video each day!! God bless you and your family!!
Pennsboro,WV is in my area. Local 304 ✌🏻
We do 100 broilers a year. We raise Freedom Rangers. Process them ourselves. I love being able to produce these on property. So rewarding. And the taste is sooooo much better.
Good to see someone representing WV
We also found putting a fan on the drying birds really helps and keeps the flies off!

Chewing gum is equivalent to a cow chewing cud.
When chewing like that literally looks like a cow.

Nice
Why not stock the pond with some fish? Start a real ecosystem and it’s fun to catch food
One day
OMG How much gum does your family go through?
Mine goes through alot it's a favorite here
Have I commented enough? Probably not
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish by commenting so much nonsense.
Can you link what cold plunge you got please!!
That’s a lot of expensive marble hidden behind the sauna. Who designed this house??

You should get a sign that reads "Sam and Ella's Swimming Hole".
My family is so modernized that if I grew that many chickens, they'd still whine they want McDonald's and buy chicken sandwiches from a restaurant
How many chickens for a year of meat?
1 chicken a week would be 52.
Family of 6 like them maybe needs 75-100?
@@Greg_Johnson_1986 that sounds about right they probably lean on the side of more than enough is better than less.
@@Dbf1339 I would assume so.
Two a week

Woop woop. I’m RUclips Famous with Uncle Justin
Get on the Late Wist y'all...lol
Sauna and cold plunge in the house? Y'all are extra!😂
If you spray the buckets and kill cones with cooking oil comes clean easily with a hose.
Question.... What about the motor on the cold plung being next to the rinse area ? Can it get wet ?
What do you do with the chicken heads they were saving. Would rather have saved the livers hearts and gizzards
How long does the frozen chicken last? If this is the only harvest for the rest of the year?
