My Ostrich Has a New Trick!

[@juliestewart4176]

Carl, the "big" water baby. I love his happy tail swishing back and forth. He is sooo happy and adapting very well. He's finding his way around there better than I thought he would in such a short period of time. But, I guess not getting beat up and injured has surely helped him alot. Y'all rock on your rescues but this has got to top them since he's not a domestic animal. I know Pig Trudy isn't either but Carl typically isn't from here. His type comes from across the big pond. Love to y'all for all you do. Thanks again for sharing your videos with us and educating us with your knowledge.

[@jamiloy7769]

Great comment 😊 I Love this place so much. They are an amazing family.

[@juliestewart4176]

@@jamiloy7769 yes they are. I've been following them for over a year & a half now. Was sooo glad when his dad joined in & started his own KZbin channel.

[@pamelahouser3487]

I love the water moments with the animals. Watching Carl with wagging his tail is such a blessing … knowing he is content with you folks. I love you folks and your videos. I wake up eager to see what new adventures have been going on. Keep them coming. Don’t listen to mockers or complainers.

[@lucynowicki1755]

I agree...if they've got a problem bye bye

[@jamiloy7769]

I know. They are so cute when she sprays them down. Annie and Ernie kind of hypnotize me watching them. Carl takes the cake right now though. Lol it has to be cool having an ostridge. Watching him get comfortable with everything is just groovy! 😂

[@beverlycook8679]

Love all the animals 💖 interactions. You are all so blessed to be together. Love and hugs!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗🙏

SAME 😁👍

[@Carolbearce]

I love how each day Carl’s personality is coming out more and more.

[@jacquelynszabo1327]

Carl loves you Jami

[@kristenambra6591]

Oh I see carl has got Jami wrapped up in his feathers lol they’ve definitely bonded... he is of course a feathered baby! ♥️ so glad to see how well he has acclimated to his new home!

[@emilyr5823]

I love to see Carl in the water! He's amazing too. Well mannerd and calm. Love yall keep up the great work 🥰

[@cordovacolorado]

This is so great. Im loving Carl more with every passing day. It feels like every video he unpacks another unique personality trait that has me liking him even more. He is quickly becoming a favorite at the sanctuary. There is noway anyone could have seen this comming.

[@trinacolson4079]

That's funny. Like the past owner said as Lester takes Carl to his new home, Carl you are going to be a big movie star now, and so he is. 🌟

[@marywilson1442]

I just love that Carl is so happy now. He really is enjoying his sprinkler time🚿. Thank you Jami for giving Carl the time to get used to the sanctuary and the different animals there. Your kindness has surely made a difference for him 💚💛🧡💜. Nugget the Emu loves grapes maybe one day you can try and see if he likes grapes (the purple ones). Since they get water from their foods the grapes will provide alot of liquid.🍇🍇🍇

[@pja6988]

Well Jami, your new feather baby is loving you. Why wouldn’t he, everyone does. Carl has a lot of gestures and who would know Set an ostrich wagged his tail?, in LE’s video he was trying to talk with his mouth (feed me) and came in really close to him and then he uses his wings to communicate. Who knew? That’s what’s so awesome about your sanctuary - just some days blows me away. Hugs💖

[@kristenferioli7018]

Carl's so awesome! And did you say Cornholio swims in the pond??? Oh I'd love to see that 😂

[@jaimewatts1417]

Me too!

[@sunshinesue4131]

I think having Carl and focusing on the newness of his needs and personality has helped with the loss of Journey. I know it has helped me as a viewer. 😊

[@a_p_r_i_1]

Makes my heart happy to see Carl settling in as well as he is. He is going to have the best life with you guys

[@ileanaflorea5020]

I couldn’t agree more.

[@angelalejeune1508]

Carl is relaxed and he knows Momma is one of his protector's. Jami and Lester I applaud all the love you have for all the Baby's. Love you guys, those baby's know who truly are their parents. God bless!!

[@patbrickner7015]

Jami, I sure have learned a lot about ostriches from you. Who would have thought that he would like being hosed down? You are so eager to learn everything about the new babies that come to the sanctuary! Love your videos! From Butler PA!

[@annettejoyce5185]

Didn’t know ostriches wagged their tails so cute he has really calmed down !

[@jrshelton3398]

Not gonna lie, Carl is a lot more gentle than I though he would be. He’s nothing like the SOBs I fooled with in high school.

[@Elizabeth-aka-Pippi]

🤣

[@ileanaflorea5020]

😂😂😂😂

[@crushiesz]

I love you guys so much. Thank you for giving Carl the most happiest life an Ostrich could ever ask for. 💜

[@creativeepicure]

This warms my heart . Thanks so much. Wishing many continued blessings to you all.

[@suethompson9481]

Oh my gosh Carl was so excited. His little tail was just a wagging. I can't wait to see him standing in line with Annie, Ernie, Pig Trudy, Newton, and Cornholio. Now that would a viral video.

[@pattycrouse3234]

It tickles me to watch Karl! I think he may have adjusted the quickest so far to becoming a part of the sanctuary. He keeps showing how happy he is in various ways.

[@rachelgilmore5293]

Jami is so smart. Lester you are so lucky to have a smart beautiful lady that loves fur babies as much as you.

[@nancypride2372]

Yes, we heard what Jami said about sweet Ernie and I agree. When I see Ernie, his expression to me makes it sound like he’s thinking, which way did he go George, which way did he go? LOL It makes him so lovable though.

[@lorrigriffin3555]

Let’s say this all together now: “Lester was right.”

[@pollydavis6078]

haha I love it!! The Water Club!! oh they could use a sprinkler...Carl wagging his tail... oh he is so delighted and happy! Y'all are so awesome!!! Jami, no need to worry about your wrinkles...you are so amazing and beautiful!! 💗💗

[@Wolfhoundfromthehighseas]

“What did you do today?” “I watered my ostrich” There’s a bad joke in there somewhere!😂😂

[@rosemaryrollason5780]

The one I found in my back yard lol

[@ileanaflorea5020]

😂😂😂😂

[@lindageorge6174]

Other than the one time that Jan was just Smitten with Carl looking up at him and I swear batting her eyes, lol, and following him everywhere, as Cornholio was trying to cut her off at the pass, and telling her to knock it off your mine! I haven't seen Jan around Carl again in any other video! I wonder if cornholio put her in her place or if she got over her crush! 💗

[@marychavez2635]

😂😂😂😂

[@topekaflash]

When I saw the first Carl video, I thought Lester had lost his mind. But it inspired me to do a lot of reading, and with your information as well, it didn’t take but a few minutes for me to fall in love with Carl. When I see an alert pop up and it’s a new Carl video, I stop whatever I’m watching to see the latest. I’m a lifelong parrot/ parakeet owner and have had my Amazon for 34 years. Parrots gizzard is muscular enough that they don’t require grit or rocks to grind their food. Love you Carl! 💕 💗 ❤️ 💕

[@carlahoward4315]

Love that tail wagging! You all have given Carl a serious case of “happiness!”

[@georgiawidgeon7710]

Wow, I had no idea that an ostrich would like water like that. It's fun to watch Carl loving the water. Thank you Jami for the info about Ostrich's eating rocks and why. You guy's are awesome!! Love to you all and all the babies (animals). ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@amandabrank4652]

Ernie has a dopey facial expression but yes Carl & Annie has RBF down pat.I noticed Carl's last week. LOL

[@amymoravec3364]

🤣🤣Carol tail reminds me of a dog wagging it's tail 🤣🤣

[@janemawsongeorgesmum31]

Another neat way to bond with Carl. He’s turning out to be such a good boy despite the misgivings. I never knew how many species wag their tails when they’re happy till l started watching your page. Except cats 🐈‍⬛ 🐈😾 that’s usually ominous.💙💙💙💙

[@lexjohnson0803]

Cats vibrate their tails as a happy greeting 😊 the wag can go either way though 😂

[@lauramcneese8547]

What animal wouldn’t LOVE to live at the Sanctuary!!! Heck! I’d love it!! 🤪😂 Lester & Jami - May God continue to bless you all!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@FromSuitstoBoots]

Thanks so much!!

[@eileenjones4719]

I love Carl!! He's so cool! If I was hanging at your sanctuary, I'd definitely be spending some quality time with Mr. Carl. He seems like a time-traveler, totally curious about his new found surroundings. The fact he has a killer-foot, but is humble and precautious is so admirable! He definitely gets an A++++ in my book!!! Luv you Carl Baby!!! Spread your charm!!

[@roxannabloom1540]

He is fitting right in niw that he's feeling more at home. Who knew they lived water like that let alone that they wag their tails! He is just the coolest animal. I don't know many people that can say you need to come over to my house to see my pet ostrich 🤣. That's just super cool.

[@ileanaflorea5020]

😂😂😂

[@janetparker5626]

I’m loving how Carl is settling in there he is very happy. Every time he looks at the camera it looks like he is smiling along with wagging his tail he loves his new home!! Y’all are doing an excellent job as usual! I Love You guys. Be Safe and God Bless! 💜

[@KailaMichelle95]

I think Carl is falling in love with you too. Have you sang to him yet, I bet he would love that.

[@denisenavara3575]

Good to see Carl has acclimated. My only fear is his feet. Hope he never hurts any babies or family.

[@kellycottrell7313]

Who knew that Ostriches wagged their feathery tails?! I didn’t, but how cute is that!? He is so happy being sprayed.

[@justinefeist1864]

Carl is a beauty 🥰 I think most birds like to have a bath/shower, it helps to keep their feathers in good condition.

[@amyrobles4780]

How cute is that! He really was wagging his tail in happiness! It's obvious that he feels very comfortable in his new forever home now. I'm so glad that Lester made the spur of the moment decision to get him. I absolutely love Carl 💘

[@priscillazadoka5782]

I am smiling while watching Carl enjoy the water shower time. His tail wagging is so nice to see, I didn't realize how much he is enjoying settling in at the Sanctuary. He is almost like a child learning about life's joys and happiness each day. I am sure you all see positive changes almost daily. He is indeed at his forever home. Yeah for Carl and all of his new family, both animals and humans. 💕💖 I wonder what will be become his favorite treat?

[@traceysouders9840]

Carl is fitting in so well with the rest of the babies. He has come along way in the days that you have had him. Jami I think he is going to be in your water line up. We love you Carl❤️

[@Acadian.FrenchFry]

OMGosh that tail wagging is adorable! I love that Carl the big Little is now officially part of the "water club". LOL

[@terriheilman-keck1832]

Love It. WOWZERS Carl- the Tail Wag is pure bliss and happiness, not to mention he smiles. Jamie and Lester you are Awesome along with all the Morrow family. I think our hearts and tears went to Heaven losing Journey and Carl came at the perfect timing for healing us. We Love Carl. Can't wait for his pond days. Thank you for sharing and educating us.

[@lisamyers8407]

Carl is a beautiful and unique addition to the Sanctuary. He’s adjusted very well it seems and is becoming very comfortable and familiar with his new home. Lester knew he’d be a great new Little! 💙✝️🙏🏻

[@stephe88]

Great video. Make my heart melt when I see him wag his tail!!! So AWESOME.

[@cindyt348]

Love his wagging tail he is a happy ostrich ❤️

[@debicorwin6978]

Jamie I have to admit I never thought much about an Ostrich until listening to you talk about Carl. You always give us facts about each feather baby. I love that. Hope to hear more. 💕

[@juliemackenzie1978]

So cool! Carl is wagging his tail feathers....👍😂🤣👏 Carl is adorable...I love that he is part of the sanctuary. 😍 Such a wonderful addition to the farm. He fits in perfectly...& the other littles love him. They don't seem too concerned that they have to share the pasture with him...& he seems to love their company too. He is settling in so nicely. Thanks for sharing the day with us. It's great to watch his transition from his other farm, where he was bullied by the other male ostrich...to not having to worry about getting beat up at your farm. 👍🇨🇦😊👏 I love the expressions on his sweet face. He’s so cute…his long eyelashes. 👍😍

[@cheragilbert]

How Cute ☺️ I Am Loving Carl More & More. I’m Waiting For Him To Dive Into The Pond. ❤️🙏🏼😘

[@beckystone7994]

I love that Carl loves the water and enjoys being sprayed by the hose like the rest of the babies !! Love y’all ❤️🙏🙋🏻

[@joshx022]

You guys are amazing. Carl is such a surprise and treat to see. I'm not surprised hes so happy in the least. Your hearts are better than gold.

[@ileanaflorea5020]

You can say that again….

[@foxybrown1742]

Lester and Jami, I love THAT you guys always "PERSONALIZE" the babies in ATTENTION.

[@evekankam6744]

That’s lovely to see Carl enjoying the water and how trusting he is becoming.Thank you for sharing

[@susanlilley-rizos9906]

Carl is going to be one of Jami’s feather babies for sure. She has that certain way with birds that Lester doesn’t have.

[@susanhudson8243]

Oh, I love this! I never guessed Carl could wag his tail. That's just priceless, Jami.

[@FromSuitstoBoots]

Thanks for watching Susan!

[@susansollee1839]

Jami, you are so gentle with your babies. I predict you being Carl’s favorite human. 💕👍🏻🌻🙏🏻 The tail wagging is adorable!

[@high62609]

I was won over anyway, but that adorable tail wag! Carl is a little and in the shower line.

[@christinebrophy3683]

How awesome I see Carl is prunning his feathers and wiggling his tail Good one Jami!!!!! You made a "friend" for life

[@deborahmatthews5575]

Love seeing Carl happy & settling in. Now all you need is a peacock.

[@joycejohnson7640]

If you think that the roosters crowing is loud then you have never heard a peacock scream. 🤯🤯🤯 They are beautiful though.

[@ginnymiller9093]

Another success story for the ISS. Your reading of all your animals is beautiful. Thank you for all you do to get these videos out to all of us. My love to all of you.

[@ginadiamante4642]

Carl is such a great addition to the farm I'm so happy that Lester took in carl and made a forever home for him ❤

[@vmcougarintn5035]

Yes, Carl is officially a Feather Baby! "Shake yo' tail feathers baby!" LOL Jami, I knew you would come to see him in all his glory. I bet, if any critter thought to try taking one of the survivors, Carl would do more damage on them than you can imagine. A bird's gizzard, well I asked that once and the naturalist said something like this. Think of a rock tumbler, for polishing rocks, as the bird takes in food the rocks help to break it down. As that process happens the rocks tumble against each other and they slowly break down too. Kind of a simple explanation, however, it helped a 10-year old to understand. Love this Jami, thanks for sharing.

[@Missi_66]

I absolutely adore Carl. He's so very interesting because he's exotic and well...you've never had any exotics on the farm. I think that I can say for everyone but especially myself we can't wait each day as to what Carl is going to do or like. I'm looking forward to the videos of what's to come 💕

[@tammyscott8850]

So great watching him get sprayed down! I love Carl!! I think he has realized how he hit the jackpot in his forever home!! Love these babies!

[@suepeck3943]

What a super bonding experience you will now have with Hey Carl!!🤣🤣 Love the tail wag! 💚💚

[@helenwenzel7603]

I really love Carl. He is a little forever. He loves the showers!

[@jenniferthacker4231]

I'm so happy to see Carl fitting right in!!! It's only a matter of time that he'll welcome touch from you guys. Boy that tail wag sure is great to see. I'm with you Jami, I didn't know what to think of Carl in the beginning but I sure do like that big bird now!!! Keep the videos coming!!! Love you guys!!! 🥰🤗

[@Cedartree-cf6om]

Cute Carl. Ducks and Geese wagging their tail feathers is a sign or being attentive, like walking in a parade. You ever noticed with your gang of geese stroll in a group with tails wagging. Carl is a happy camper for sure. Thanks Jamie!

[@loriebross747]

I love that Lester "interviewed" Jamie. It was nice seeing Jami chatting

[@lalousiane7118]

Love to see Carl doing so well. God bless ya'll for the hard work & the knowledge you've gleaned to give all your babies the best life they could ever have. 👏💜👍

[@LLjean-qz7sb]

The rocks in a bird's gizzard are kind of like our teeth. They have no teeth, so the food passes through the gizzard, gets ground up and broken up (chewed if you will) and then passes to the stomach and beyond! That's why people give their chickens grit, to help them break down their food! If you've seen Nugget on Cog Hill, he sits in a kiddie pool and uses it like a bird bath!! They tried getting him a larger, deeper pool but he would not get in!!! Only likes that one size pool!! It would be cool if he would swim in the pond!! Maybe Carl(Karl?) never learned how to be an ostrich at his former home! He seems like he likes to experience new things!! They are generally very curious! God Bless!

[@debbiecozortakalonghornmom1862]

Yes Nugget loves his little pool he has such a funny personality love him too.

[@dorismatthews4416]

Jami, I always learn alot from you about the feathers-thanks! You look beautiful every time we see you!❤️ Keep on keepin' on!

Isn't that the cutest . Carl wagging his tale . Just love that . You all have done good . Thanks for sharing

[@maryherron472]

Love watching Carl. Him wagging his tail was so cute.

[@lisamusselwhite4600]

Happy tail wagging! Jami gets so excited learning new things, especially about the feather babies. Two of my favorite Jami moments are when she does the happy cry when Gracie gets in her lap and starts eating, and when she is telling Meg bedtime stories to the baby goats......now I have another one. Love all the moments, but these are some of my favorite Jami moments! Love y'all and what you do!

[@marycombes9423]

Carl just seems so layed back like Ernie. He just so cute!

It’s just so amazing how much Carl loves attention and loves your affection.

[@denisehardin7005]

[@staceyarlene8888]

lol I have never seen an Ostrich wag it's tail that was so darn cute. Carl is like "that feels so good Mom keep that water comin"

[@daphtahquette9242]

So happy Carl is a little. The tail wag is just proof he's happy! 💜

[@pamherring3015]

Great job jami on explaining rocks and birds. You are completely right . They will only eat the size they know will help digestion…. I love Carl so much and I’m glad he’s fitting in and getting the love he needs. Pretty soon he will be loving on y’all. !! GO CARL!

[@kellimcfarland7686]

That's great!Carl is coming along nice . He's learning 😊

[@debbiewebb1257]

We are learning so much more about Carl. His tail wag is cute. Who knew an Ostrich would love water. Always saw them in dry areas or grassy areas before on TV. Never around water. So glad he’s happy.

[@michelesturtevant4187]

Carl is loving the cool down.❤️

[@Wolfpug]

How cute is Carl shaking his tail like that! He really is excited & loving the water. I am learning about Ostriches as I watch your videos. Pretty kool.

[@gringa978]

I love how he wags his tail like Adam or Steve when he's super happy! I didn't know feathers wag their tail when their happy

[@jimmcclure7720]

That was the first thing I thought of when I saw the tail wag. Adam or Steve always makes me laugh when I saw him doing it....especially when Jami brought the girls home to him. Now that Carl is there with his tail wag it just gets better.

[@julieanderson5579]

That’s so cute him wagging his tail out of happiness. I would love to see him if he ever gets in the pond. Good job Jami.

[@dianeenlow123]

I’m so happy Carl is turning out to be a seemingly gentle creature. I hope he continues to prove us all wrong. I think he really loves enjoys and now seeks out the attention, something he probably didn’t have at his last home.

[@ejeans1960]

Jami! You are the queen of feathers! Never would I have thought that Carl would wag his tail feathers in such a manner. He seems SO happy💕 Annie definitely has the ultimate RBF😂 Ernie is a big derp…love him so much

[@marychavez2635]

The good Lord knows what he is doing people!!! Carl as well as you all needed each other from the pain you were experiencing with Journey's rainbow walk. Carl needed help also, he was experiencing his own pain & frustration of not belonging where he was. So it was a match made in heaven!! 💕💕. Thank you Lord!! May you continue to bless this farm & all on it, from the smallest to the biggest! Asking in Jesus Christ name Amen! ❤️💕

[@lynnbell8743]

The spraying down/hosing off your kids has always made me so happy and Annie and Ernie have gotten into the groove! The pigs/aka Trudi plus, have gotten into the free/cool hose off!
