Thanks for sharing Rob and Molly's farm! It's already grown so much since they moved!!

[@CreatingEssence]

BFL and Targhee are two of my favorite yarns to knit with. Love hearing from Amiable Acres. Thank you for sharing!

[@jeanettewaverly2590]

They sure have a nice set-up. I really enjoyed all the information about spinning and weaving. Her spinning wheel is beautiful.

[@p.k.gilliam8157]

Very interesting. I thought of your sweet Penny when I saw George. I would love to have a llama or alpaca. Great guardians for the flock or herd. Keep up the good work!

[@onedazinn998]

Good job on the video :) Loved seeing you with George!

[@lesleyoliver5582]

Great video and a lovely change to have someone who spins and weaves. They should definitely have a channel with so much to offer the homesteading community. Thank you from Australia 🐨🐨

Nice to see a llama again. And I really enjoyed the spinning and weaving.

[@wendy54321]

Wow! I admire you so much. All the wool, yarn and weaving.That's amazing. God bless you and your family.

[@kathygalvin4325]

[@TheGrassfedHomestead]

I've discussed the possibility of making such a video with Molly. It might happen!

[@JoshuaSmithHomesteader]

We have a 9 year old Jersey with a wonderful udder for hand milking, and a 4 year old Jersey with horrible tiny teats for hand milking so we use her for feeding two calves that we will use for beef. Your cow is really nice. Very cool your spinning.

[@Steve-ps6qw]

omg...that loom is so neat. Looks very complex to build but the operation of it seems simple enough.

[@johnspeer7101]

Thank you so much for another terrific video!

[@jeannel1065]

Very interesting visit to Amiable Acres. I’d enjoy following them on KZbin. Nice video editing, Dan.

[@OBRfarm]

Awesome! Thanks for all your work and videos! Can’t wait for you to come to our farm.

[@pepecocomax]

This was such an interesting and enjoyable video. Thank you for sharing this great video.

[@fleshemx]

Love that llama...I could use George out here in Texas...lots of coyotes! He'd sure need a haircut though!

[@371508129]

I like George.

[@LauraCWilkinson]

I, too, immediately thought of Penny when I saw George. She was such a pretty girl.

[@terijean6351]

Love the upscale chickshaw for cold climate! I think I should mine with insulation. 🤔

[@joansmith3492]

Nice farm. Does George remind you of Penny? Looms are pretty incredible machines. Way beyond my pea brain. LOL!

[@TheGrassfedHomestead]

George is a little friendlier than Penny was

[@Steve-ps6qw]

Dang Dan! Just come right out and say it..."Which is better in my stomach!!" lolI am surprised they have coyote issues. I wonder what part of northern Idaho, which county. I did go to their website, which has some really wonderful recipes and images. I was also a bit shocked when I read about the minerals, or lack there of, in todays produce....scary.

[@bethhinton7115]

Love these video's and is that a Llama or an Alpaca?

[@TheGrassfedHomestead]

llama... thank you for watching

[@jamiegreen7537]

Hi do they have KZbin if not can you please find out we're they got all there spinning stuff from I want to buy it for me

[@prayerangel1]

Why in the world are they calving in November? Bad time of year to calve.

[@saraweeks5602]

How is the meat from BFL? Love the wool, looking for a good fiber breed that is also great to eat. Any advice?

[@TheGrassfedHomestead]

I've never had BFL but I've had Romney sheep which are great for both delicious and have good wool
