Brutus is just doing his job. He's a livestock guardian dog, therefore he's supposed to know that everyone has good food and water and is safe.

[@wrldvw1836]

Maybe getting some barn cats that actually stay in the barn would be good. Brutus would enjoy the company and surely they would help him. Brutus is so funny and so much fun to watch.

When we got our Big Red broilers from McMurray, the free mystery bird turned out to be a cochin rooster. We had to separate him because the broilers were picking on him and we were afraid that they would end up killing him. That "free" mystery chick cost me plenty because I had to get him his own large bin, a load of shavings, a feeder and a waterer and I had to build a wooden framework lid covered with hardware cloth. And now I am stuck with a rooster that my wife and daughter have named Cocoa -- so he's a pet. Sheesh. 😉🤣 Take care and God Bless.

[@bushpushersdaughter]

My free chick was a Golden Polish rooster. He also cost me plenty because he turned out to be a jerk in every possible rooster way. He is gone now finally. I will never check the free box again! Ha

Good night from Elmwood Wisconsin Lumnah family. Good night viewers. I had a crazy day. I'm so glad I was staying with my friend because her husband was not home today. He's back tonight but she had to go to the emergency room and I was here to drive her. It turns out it was a kidney stone slowly coming out! I've heard that really hurts! She's much better now. Hopefully it'll pass tonight. Wow, 75 new friends for Brutus. It's a beautiful harvest full moon tonight. I almost hit a deer yesterday! Missed it by inches. Yay, chicks. I like those blocks Gina. More tarp for the garden. Nice job Gina! Too bad you have to drill holes in the ceiling of the winter chicken stall. I always use the red ones. I switched to brooder plates since I almost caught the barn on fire. It's cute to see the cows peeking in. Rats, wrong bottoms! Brutus the quality testing dog! Wow, bulb out already. I think that's a Plymouth Barred Rock free chick. The chicks do look very healthy! I'm so glad you didn't lose any. Good ideas about spacing the barns to have swinging gates with them. I like that you can fence the highland cattle up with one strand of wire. It's nice to see them move onto pasture. They look happy! That is a great sound of cows munching. Thanks for this video Lumnah family!

[@idafisher8327]

Good day, Al and Gina. I think Brutus is going to be surprised how small the chicks are.

Mornin Mr and Mrs Lumnah. The steers might love that side of pasture because there’s more phase 1 grass that’s really soft and sweet. They’re not big into the tall grass because it’s harder to eat. (Think of it like children liking cookies over carrots) There’s a lot that goes into grass growth
