Just a simple video not meant for anything. Our two senior Percherons. Monday and Friday
These two act like a typical work week.
Monday always shows up early and Friday takes its time. I’ll just a quick little three minute update on the boys.
It’s been too hot here in North Carolina to do more than stay out of the sun and then hose them down at night.

Its near 100 degrees again, the baby chicks get a frozen treat.
Переглядів 8914 годин тому
In the shade it’s high 80s in the sun. It is high 90s with a humidity over around 72%. The heat index makes it in the triple digits. Chickens get hot, so let’s give them a treat. Their treat consists of their main crumble feed, mixed with herbs. Sprinkled in a Bundt pan and covered with water and frozen overnight. Simple, easy to do, and you don’t have to worry about feeding them for the evenin...
Day 18, Lockdown. Just 3 more days till hatching day. What’s going on in those eggs?
Переглядів 50День тому
What is lockdown day? Its when you stop turning the eggs and you get ready for new babies! Day 18 is when mother nature has finalized her creation. The lungs are ready to breathe air, scales and feathers are formed and the rest of the yolk will continue to be absorbed into the body to give the chick food for the first 24 hours of life outside the egg. While it was inside, it was absorbing the e...
First ride on Monday the Direct Ship to Slaughter Percheron Draft Horse
Переглядів 34314 днів тому
Today we took Monday, the Percheron draft horse that was slated for slaughter last December out on his first ride. Bareback and only in a rope halter, he did fantastic! He spooked a little out of waving flag, but paid no attention to the cars that were driving by. Once we got the cobwebs worked out (which side of the road he was supposed to be on lol) he was a perfect gentleman. Ride a draft ho...
What does it look like candling chicken eggs at day 10. Whats going on in there?
Переглядів 5314 днів тому
Theres not a lot of videos on the web about what it looks like when you candle chicken eggs. How do you know your chicks are developing properly and are on schedule to hatch at day 21? We use the dry hatch method and have had great success with very little worry about humidity and temperature. So whats going on in that egg at day 10? What can you see? You see heartbeats, heads and the silhouett...
Hoop coop build for our new flock of chicks
Переглядів 5521 день тому
We have decided to expand our little farm and see if we can sell some eggs through a little roadside stand. Farm fresh egg stands are popping up all over Yadkin county. So, the best way to restart a flock with very little money, is to hatch them yourself.each Lang hen nowadays is $25-$30 per bird. And it cost a fraction of that to hatch it and raise it to age. It just takes some additional time.
Dry hatching eggs from a local farm stand. Are they good?
Переглядів 9221 день тому
Ever wonder what dry hatching is? We thought hatching eggs was hatching eggs, a traditional way to hatch requires strict maintenance of humidity levels, but people were experiencing low hatch rates. We decided to use a dry hatch method which does not add additional moisture and lets nature do her thing. … … we still watch though. Its fun This is our 3rd incubation and, in 21 or so days, we are ...
Traveling down memory lane - 2007, watching the PMU colts
Переглядів 73Місяць тому
May 27, 2007 I came across this video. I was boarding at Long Creek Stables at that time…. Yah. I didn’t always have the horses on my property. I really miss that barn and the people I met there. I’ve made some lifelong friends there. Every person who has a horse SHOULD experience barn life for at least a year or two. Trust me it builds character.
Candling eggs: Day 10 and what it should look like.
Переглядів 138Місяць тому
since we had such success with our first brood of dry, hatching chicks, Who are now nearly 3 weeks old, we thought we would try again with a little bit bigger of a clutch. This is day 10 of day 21 and we candle the eggs to see how the chicks are developing.
Is There An Ultimate Fly Spray Alternative? Product Review Reveals Surprising Results! Power Phaser!
Переглядів 110Місяць тому
With fly sprays skyrocketing in cost and decreasing in effectiveness, I wanted something that WORKED! Skin so soft is so oily and attracts lots of dust in the coat requiring more baths that strip the coat of natural oils. Fly's laugh at the "Nautral" sprays and typical livestock treatments are far too harsh on sensitive areas. I was curious what the UK used on their horses and I found the Power...

    • @SFD-Horses
      @SFD-Horses 29 днів тому

      Both are great at being used for bedding but wheat straw has a naturally occurring wax coating that allows for moisture to slide off easier therefore stays a little cleaner, Barley straw is better for Donkey feed because there is no coating the the barley is healthier for them as forage and is more palatable.
