Hollar's I hope you take the time to pat yourselves on the back ! You are really making homesteaders PROUD !!!

[@marylefave2933]

Is there anything you can’t do Ben. You are a homesteading marvel man. Your family is so lucky to have you and your wonderful influence not only on your family but this whole community. I couldn’t be prouder of you if you were my own son!

[@amandaholt1979]

I just love how buggy jumped on in and helped. Some parents wouldn't allow it. I am so glad she is learning about all the homestead things.

[@growinggenerationshomestea516]

I'd love to know your kids thoughts on how life is now on the homestead and how it's changed their ideas for their future. As a parent who has 6 older kids ages 23-30 who didn't grow up on a homestead and homeschooled and now our youngest three 6-13 who are, It's neat seeing their thoughts on their future. I think others who are thinking of taking the jump would love to hear how impactful it is. Without calling out which kid or putting to much of their privacy out there. My son has many plans and Butchering is one of his interests. He loved watching the last 2 vlogs

I know you really stress over filming your activities, but you do a great job. I pray you do more projects just like you did this one. Set your camera up and go to town, worry about the results later

You need rolling nest boxes, where the egg rolls into safety

Meg & Ben. As a mother of 4 boys I also know at their age they're a bottomless pit. Love what you're doing. Looking forward to watching you in 2024🎉

[@Karan-leafit]

You are 1 of 4 Homestead families that I Love to Watch,, ❤ I look forward to each video as your family works so well together. So glad everyone learns together ❤️ awesome butchery skills and tips... love Buggy digging into the middle to learn. Love finding out what Meg is cooking or canning. I always am amazed at her ease of pulling everything together,,, and I always learn something ✨️..

I learned years ago that teenage boys can eat like there's no tomorrow. My mom would cook in pots the size of a canner,good memories. (By the way there was 3 teenage boys at the time but 8 children total.)

Every tiny step completed is one less step to be done. There are many steps in a project. Today you made progress. Enjoy the journey.

Whenever we had egg eaters we would add oyster shells to their feed. They tend to get low in calcium and vitamin D in January/February. Alternatively you can grind up egg shells and add to their feed to help supplement the calcium they’re putting out.

[@gailbrault9251]

Butchering is very interesting and fascinating to me. I'm glad to ride along as you parcel everything out. 😊

[@michellerichardson2545]

Ben...you are handy enough to build some roll out nest boxes to keep the eggs away from the egg eaters.

[@catswambo9706]

Oh my parents let us build forts in the dining room! Thank you for the memories. Hours of fun. Thank you Lord for patient parents. Linen washes clean. Memories last forever.i am 60.

My ex once traded a welding job for a meat bandsaw. Once he cut out the tri-tip, he would lay the leg on the saw, and cut 2 1\2 inch thick slabs of what we named "Flintstone steaks". They were almost 2 feet in diameter and fit perfectly on our round top grill. So delish on charcoal.

110% on having hard books because the power can go down, internet can fail, but a book will always be where and when you need it. God bless y'all in this new year of 2024 and keep growing!

[@e.c.5994]

Once we figure out which chickens are eating eggs, my dad cuts half the top beak off the offenders. Chicken beaks grow back like fingernails - eventually - but they can't eat eggs in the meanwhile. They can eat and drink, they just can't peck holes in eggs.

[@mountainsidewithkenandamy]

As folks who are learning everything as we are going, we are always impressed with all and everything y’all do…especially with the depth of knowledge you share. I mean, pig butchering class, bacon on the smoker, replanting little tress, skirting the house, the gardens, welding, knife repair to make a new tip and detailed beef butchering…keep it up…oh yeah and making a video and raising a family while doing it all. Plus all the fun yummy stuff in the kitchen too!!!

[@BethGrantDeRoos]

GREAT video!!
