    I love the way those baby goats follow Olivia. It is like they're dogs. They are very playful. They really know that Olivia will not hurt them and that she will take care of them and protect them.

    @inglis7086 4 года назад +9

    Buttercup did so well on her first milking she really stood beautifully - having 3 babies does help with milk production as they make enough milk for all the babies so only 1 baby like Willow less milk - you are making a chick shaw with the ability to tow it with the side by side - Justin told us and it has put thought into his head on how to convert his especially for pulling uphill on his place instead of doing it by hand

    Gina, I sometimes make "stir-fry" with whatever bbq sauce I have on hand - store-bought or home-made. It's certainly not authentic, but its delicious. If your favorite bbq sauce is too thick you just add a bit of water or juice or broth. If its too runny a bit of cornstarch will thicken it up as it cooks. Thanks for all of the inspiration!

    Good Monday mornin New Yolk City .... nice to see the meat birds survived the road trip. Your plants are really taking off in the high tunnel. Buttercup is prolly producing so well because she has to feed 3 kids. She did very well on the milking stand when you think that she was just introduced to that milking apparatus .... just the noise alone could have spook her .... well done. Have a great week AL, Gina & Olivia .... I still think that Moose is laying those little eggs ~8^)

    @elizabethprior4968 4 года назад +14

    Sweet and sour sauce mix all ingredients together as a slurry, pour over the stir fry and stir until becomes translucent and thickens up.
    * 1¾ cup 6 ounces pineapple or orange juice
    * 1/3 cup water
    * 1/3 cup white or rice vinegar
    * 1 tablespoons tomato purée (or 3 tablespoons of tomato ketchup)
    * 1/2 cup brown sugar
    * 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    * ¼ teaspoon salt
    * 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or Worcestershire sauce)
    * 1 tablespoon cornflour (cornstarch)
    Add water as necessary if it gets too thick.

    • @wavytiger1

    Buttercup is starting out to be a good milker. We had a Nigerian doe who produced a quart and a half a day. She was an awesome goat. We ended up having to cull her from the herd because she was having issues carrying her babies to term. It was sad.
    Looks like your meat birds are doing great. We get our Cornish cross from McMurray hatchery and we have never been disappointed.
    Looking forward to see what you make. You are too funny Al. Man glitter, lol. Love it.

    Al, shortly after dirt was invented and before duct tape became the universal "fix-it " tool in everyone's tool box there was baling wire. You have a door in the barn witch you have to reach over to open because the door lock only opens from one side. I had this issue with a fence gate---SO---I drilled a small hole in my gate and fashioned a little latch pull with baling wire to lift the latch.

    This is my easy stir fry sauce. In a small bowl add all but the corn starch, whisk thoroughly and then add the corn starch. Pour over the stir-fried ingredients and enjoy.
    • 1/2 cup chicken stock
    • 1/4 cup orange marmalade
    • 1/4 cup orange juice
    • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tablespoons corn starch

  • @DisabledUKPrepper
    @DisabledUKPrepper 4 года назад

    A wonderful mixed day. So pleased Buttercup was good for you, and that she's produced so much milk. For a maiden milking, that was pretty amazing.
    Can't wait to see what that extra chick is, and if it's female will it go in with the other layers? As for the meat birds already in the chicken tractors, they're clearing that bit of pasture beautifully.
    I'm guessing the project is something to do with that covered outdoor area for the barn you talked about. The separation gate looks to be working well.
    The greenhouse seems to be thriving with the watering system you installed. I am looking forward to seeing how that continues to grow, as well as how you're going to raise and lower the sides.
    The pigs are always entertaining, and they're slowly getting through that ground.

  • @jaymoyer4046
    @jaymoyer4046 4 года назад

    Hi Gina, earlier I posted about one of your stir fry meals that I noticed you used sesame oil that was not the toasted version that Asian recipes call for. If you try it you will notice a huge difference in the aroma and it will immediately remind you of stir fry from an oriental restaurant.
    I also use hoisin sauce in my stir frys. Ginger root is another good ingredient.
    Best of luck!

    love life!!! such a sweet and nice video. Buttercup Bravo. Just wanted to ask you, the food for the baby chicks is different than the one you gave them before. The other one was more like a "powder", this one looks "chunky"... is there a special reason? Just curious that is all. Love you wonderful family, thank you for sharing all this love, sun and happiness.

    A few tips on your stir fry that you can do is first use sesame oil to fry everything in. It has an incredible flavor. Also you can use fresh or dry garlic and ginger. You can try adding rice vinegar and also use molasses to add a deeper flavor and sweetness.
