A Day In My Life At HOMESTEAD HORSEMANSHIP! - 9/14/24

[@2CalaLilly]

It's always good to see Oliver. He is developing into a magnificent Clydesdale stallion.

[@mandycoetzee8074]

Oliver is a beautiful horse. The other horses are really gorgeous. Nice to see them. Lovely to see what goes on in the of JR at the Homestead.

[@lucilleyoung4744]

I love teaching the young stallion how to behave around the female horses

[@CarolSmith-k1q]

I love seeing what a “normal” day is like on your horse farm, and seeing all the individual horses.

[@TheresaRathbone-v3y]

I can’t imagine getting everything done on the Homestead while working a full time job. Thank you for sharing your day.

[@Jakap-c8q]

It can be successful. You’ll be awfully tired by night time after 6:00 P.m. 😅

[@cherre3883]

He’s not going to work, outside of the farm.

[@kristawilson718]

JR retired...

[@TheresaRathbone-v3y]

@@kristawilson718 that is awesome. I’m happy for him and his family.

[@lucilleyoung4744]

Your horses are able to live wild, like they would have 150 years ago. I know they love it.

[@judinemulerski315]

Such a lot of work. Not a moments rest. It’s really a delight to see y’all’s family work together to make all these God creatures have a happy life plus seeing how y’all love these animals.

[@sarahbeecham7164]

Prince’s tiny foal video is how I found this channel so it’s so nice to see him growing and being weened❤ also I like this kind of video 😊

[@donnabaker3210]

Good thing you retired from your job recently. I couldn't imagine how you got everything done before. Even with not working a 40 to 50 hour workweek at your previous job, you have your plate full. I like the format of this video. Keeps us all more engaged and interested. Thanks for sharing.

[@dezfacts8839]

One thing I've realized since recently retiring is that time seems to fly by when you're working at home and being productive for your family. It's incredible. I expected the opposite, but I think it's because when you truly enjoy what you're doing and are deeply focused on the task at hand, time just slips away. Congrats J.R and Emerie.

[@his4evr2c]

What about Hunters? Is it better

[@carlaatkins2619]

Loved all the bits and pieces of the Homestead. Prayers and Blessings. 🎶💐💖🫂

Boots is a stunning horse …thanks for all you do ,I enjoy your channel immensely

[@Linnie-mm3gt]

I Love Watching Yaw'lls Video's, All The Time... "You Are Awsome", Homestead... 🙏🙏🙏

[@Sympatico4u]

That Classy has the prettiest coloring. New boy is gorgeous

[@joannahatton99]

When you said she was in heat I so hopped your next words were that you were going to breed her to Bob or even Oliver!! Darn!

[@songbyrdha]

I think Classy is one of the most gorgeous horses I’ve ever seen. She is so elegant and classy! Name fits! If I could, I’d buy her in a heartbeat!

[@l-bird]

I love the name Darlin' for the new mare. Fits perfectly for such a beautiful lady. But, gotta say, I'm rooting for Champ, haha!

[@f0rbr3nd4]

I enjoy seeing your day on the horse farm!

[@lilygg8018]

Thanks JR for the video! Please continue doing your daily routine for us.

[@darlenegibson57]

I love your "all day" videos. They are very educational. Keep them coming. ❤❤❤

[@brendabirkenbach8533]

Parker is just happy. And NO cut Oliver's mane! He sees just fine.♥️🙏🏼❤🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎

[@pixie706]

Glad to hear that you give the mares a break from carrying a foal. Too many folk use mares as a production line which must be bad for their well-being

[@JackieMathis-xg5fy]

I enjoy a "day in the life"......

[@ToniMoore-yy6vl]

It is always good to see Oliver he is a beautiful stallion love ❤ seeing him get the care he needs !❤❤❤❤

[@lindahollister5530]

I'm glad as much as you all do, that, you are full-time now. Praying everything works out for you❤❤❤❤.

[@l-bird]

Regular updates on seeing newly born or introduced horses is what keeps my interest in the channel. Sometimes it seems to go too long in between, so I forget which horse is which, etc. Also we love the horse auction videos... It also might be interesting to do a Live during an auction and give the viewers a chance to donate in order to buy a new horse. Stuff like that makes the audience feel a part of the community. Then to see the new arrival updates! Thanks for listening 🤗

[@songbyrdha]

I LOVE the idea of the audience being able to help buy a new horse that we get to watch JR and Bekkah develop. It’s an opportunity to feel super invested. Kind of how Oliver got here and part of why we’re all so invested in him! Oliver is a super star!! 🌟 🌟🌟🤩🤩🤩❤️❤️❤️

[@songbyrdha]

I’d also love to see us get JR a bigger, better trailer that will accommodate Oliver, Nattie, and the new mare they want better for them.

[@l-bird]

@@songbyrdha Yes, so agreed! Oliver is what invested me in this channel

[@l-bird]

@@songbyrdha Oh, great idea! They would benefit by having online fund raisers also... for me, ones that accept paypal

[@l-bird]

@@songbyrdha I think it might be time they create a simple website to put occasional or emergency fund raisers on

[@christinerees50]

Parker is a herding dog full of herding instincts ...when he's running ahead of you barking it's because he's excited with the anticipation of working for you ...he's not biting the the horses but herding them ...I think you've tried training him in the past but he's older now so try again he needs to be working ...my collie used to herd me from the door if I was going out and my knees were full of bruises where he nipped me

[@SallyLaBaume]

I have a dog that I rescued from a snare. When I go outside she jumps around in front of me, bites at my feet and runs none stop circles around me. She only does this with me. Vet said she is a pitbull mix brindle body with white. I have tried everything I can think of to get her to stop as sometimes she almost trips me by hitting my foot when I am walking. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get her to stop running circles around me. I have nothing for her to herd.

[@christinerees50]

@@SallyLaBaume what is she like with commands ..like sit or wait ...if she's running in front of you while on the lead tell her no and make her sit ..do it each time she runs around you and she will learn that if she wants to go for a walk she'll need to stop running around you ..if you have a garden still tell her no then sit and throw a ball for her ...when she nips you let her know that she's hurt you with a high pitched sound ...and we'll done you for rescuing her and giving her a home ....good luck

JR: explaining daily chores and chopping wood in the forest Me: scanning the back fence line of the forest for Bigfoot!!! 😆

[@Sympatico4u]

[@traciehart4470]

Thank you for the video JR. I personally really enjoyed it and would love to see more. It’s always great seeing what you do on a daily basis, when running a farm. Sending love and blessings from Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺🥰

[@jeanlamberty6490]

Always enjoy your videos, seeing everybody .....I can appreciate what it takes to run the farm every day. In the summers I spent my time on my uncle's diary farm. They had several hundred cows, some pigs, chickens and corn, wheat fields....everyone should spend some time on a farm.....it's good for the soul!!

[@rebeccarothfuss-ym3gs]

A typical day is interesting and I also enjoy when something special happens, like a trip to the vet whether routine or a chance to learn about handling a health problem, moving the herd to a different pasture is always interesting to me, or Oliver and you working together. Of course anything to do with the babies!!❤❤❤

[@hummingbird_chirps8520]

I love watching your daily chores, activities, gorgeous horses... all the animals... and your wonderful family, JR. I wanted to see the momma and baby donkey, too We love you sweet gorgeous Oliver!🦋

[@DebraRice-y6b]

Nice seeing Oliver, all the horses look good ❤❤❤❤❤

[@rosemarygraham2815]

It was amazing to see how big Prince and Chantilly have got. And also amazing to see that they big enough to be weaned. The amount of work that you have to get done in a day is incredible, but I guess that’s life on the farm. I love all your videos and I’ll watch anything you put out.❤❤❤🙌🏻

[@terryt.1643]

Darlin’ is a great name for Twitty. It fits her so much better, she is a beauty. The new palomino is handsome. He will be a great horse for someone when he gets trained up.

[@dawnkelley-ll2re]

Thanks Jr. I really enjoyed your video. Look forward to seeing more. Thank you.

[@beverlywhitehurst3364]

I really like the name Darlin for Twitty. Great video. God bless your family.

JR you are an amazing man. You take such care and love in your work.

[@mikehenry6284]

Ya know JR, you and ALL your family are truly an inspiration to all on horse care ❤. You've done so much for a couple of rescue horses, I mean horses that were on the brink of death All your horses get so much TLC, training, and if they leave your farm, ya'll make sure they go to loving homes. Thank you for all you do. Love and God Bless you all 💜 ✝️ Jennifer

[@noseinthenews869]

Hello, today I attended a bridal shower at Peaceful Valley Farms in Pittstown NJ where I saw and petted Clydesdale horses for the first time in my life! It was a beautiful venue and the horses were all rescues. It was amazing! They were so curious and friendly, your channel brings me so much joy, thank you!❤️

[@sallyshafer914]

I like Darlin' for a name.

[@KathrynRose-schultz-qs6qw]

Note that wheat can cause painful joints! Made the switch off wheat and my knees stopped being painful!

[@carlapoorman8137]

I don't have a farm(yet) but I dearly love horses! When I watched my first video, I knew that I had to subscribe to your channel ❤ At 63 and my husband at 68, we'll never own horses but I just love Oliver and he is why I continue to watch religiously watch all yor videos ❤. Keep up the good work 👏

[@01Lenda]

Why not? I am almost 60 and getting horses. Just not gonna be doing crazy stuff. 😂 Still able to ride and enjoy!

[@_WATTS_Gamer]

Man those horses are spoiled ! Love it...what a great life for them !!!

[@kathleenhunter3161]

It was fun. It certainly shows how much time and work it takes to take care of horses well. And that’s with most of them pastured. They are sure looking good

[@ObscurusStar]

I'm loving Boot's color

[@kimwilliford6303]

😢😢😢 NO! DON'T GET RID OF Nattie. Nattie is growing to be a fabulous horse. She and Oliver will be great together ❤❤❤

[@bluekatgal7300]

It is obvious you have talent and patience for your ranching life. Critters are your forte. Love how all the horses respond to your leadership and kindness. Love❤❤❤Oliver and tell my husband about him when you post. We are old and retired so love watching your informative videos. Your wife is so sweet with the horses and the kids are learning the best of skills. Thanks and have a blessed Sunday.

I really enjoyed this video. It was great. Life on a horse ranch. If you got you a small herd of goats they would eat that 4 acres down in no time. There are actually people that will rent you their herd of goats.

[@DethStroke-fo7he]

I was thinking that too. Goats are great for clearing brush. And you can them too!

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your dedication to owning and caring for Clydesdales. It’s wonderful to see such a historic British breed being valued and celebrated. Their strength and elegance have such a rich heritage, and it’s great to see them thriving under your care. Keep up the great work! I also have a special appreciation for the Suffolk Punch, a rare breed these days, which shares a similar rich history

Hi JR......"A day in the life" has my vote for more of this type of video because if too long of time goes by I can't recognize anybody because the "Babies" grow & change so fast in the first two years! Besides.. I want to follow the baby donkey' s progress! Hello to All and God bless.....😊❤😊
