I'm so glad no one was hurt. And that you were able to get all the animals back home.

[@carolrainey8463]

Our friends who live 11 miles outside of Midland TX. and have a goat and sheep farm. After years of worrying about their animals during tornado season they built an above ground tornado shelter for them. They taught their guardian dogs to herd the goats and sheep into it when Danny sounded a siren. After a couple of weeks they had it down. I didn't think it was possible but they proved me wrong ! They built the shelter themselves a little at a time by using cinder blocks, rebarb and cement. Rebarb , steal and cement for the roof. Danny found several videos on KZbin that showed them how to build it. They did the same thing for the chickens house. The shelters have steel doors that open on the inside and Danny taught Sadie their 6 year old guardian dog how to open and close it. The chickens door opens to the outside and either Danny or Sue can close it before going into their storm celler. The chickens and ducks are now trained to go into it whe it gets bad outside. The 3 guardian dogs are now trained to herd the goats and sheep to go into their storm shelter when Danny or Sue push the siren. They don't have to worry about a tornado killing their animals anymore.

[@sheila1115]

was russel limping? your family and farm are lucky that rachel knew what needed to be done and did it... no complaining or dragging her feet she just dug in. she did herself... and your farm and family, proud...

[@royalty4573]

I am so glad you guys are safe. I could not imagine living there. Send prayers and love. Oh, Rachel you are a Rockstar ❤

[@madelinegoldingay6440]

A virtual hug to you and your lovely family. Your management of the farm and the animals is a pleasure to watch. I admire that you work and look after the farm so well.

[@user-yw6jn7mc8y]

Praise God Racheal found out about the goats and got them all back! Are you getting hit harder with rain this year more than normal? Wow the sweet son of Cora is growing faster than weeds! He looks great. Praying the heavy rains and tornadoes stop for your entire area.

[@LeahR221]

Thanks for giving Rachel credit where credit is due. It’s great to hear you praising her. She’s a keeper!

[@debraelliott8371]

Hello Kevin, Rachel, Kyah, & Calab, Happy Mothers Day Rachel 34💐❤ Great job Rachel getting the dogs & goats back in their pens! I'm glad you found them all! Kevin so happy you found where they got out than got it filled in! 🤞 So glad you have made it thru all this bad crazy weather. Take care & God Bless 🙏🤗❤😊✝️✌

[@rb2530]

One method to solve the drainage issue is to remove all of that debris, all of it so you have clean ground. Put a 2'-3' diameter culvert in and put that levee back. Clean dirt only and pack it in 2"-4" lifts. Reinforce the front surface with that concrete debris. On the levee, make a low spot crossing it for a controlled over flow, NOT over the culvert. Put the overflow off to the side. Use that concrete debris you have to line it so it will not erode out. You will have to fabricate a grate to cover the entrance of the culvert. I would suggest welding some rebar with a lifting eyelet to enable you to remove it to clean out an debris that washed down that gully. That will buy you a few years for you to work on some swales to direct the other runoff into the dry creek.

[@sheliabouch2033]

God Bless sending prayers for everybody that was in the track of storms or affected by the storm. Love from Northeastern Pennsylvania ❤❤❤❤

[@marywilliams341]

Have you tried or thought about putting a big drainage or culvert pipe starting at the end by the fence and run it under you land bridge to the gully, so the water runs through the pipe instead of destroying the edge by the fence. Then move the fence up a little bit to better ground

[@dariustambasco5457]

I was going to say the same thing!!

[@susanpatterson7088]

I aoso thought that might be better as a permanent fix. That is what we do here and it should last 20+ years.

[@DanMLarsen]

I was thinking the same thing. The water has to go somewhere and it will wash out in another place.

[@NonexistentHomestead]

Same thought here

[@PlantLady57]

Great thhought

[@RunningGreyWolf]

Kevin you should just mix concrete on top of the dam you made so it cascades over the concrete rather than eroding the soil. You did a great job filling that giant hole under the fence. You should probably raise the fence height in that section.

[@AZJH8374]

How cool. The dogs stayed with the goats 🐐!!!❤❤❤

[@PlantLady57]

I am so happy y’all are well. If I may suggest, adding a second row of fencing 50’ back from the washout area so the livestock has no access. It is also common in my neck of the woods in East Texas for landowners to add rock and log berms to slow flood waters and reduce erosion. The addition of new tree and bush plants in swells along the waters path can be most effective in slowing the water across your land.

[@juanitawalker4836]

Hope ya had a wonderful Mother's Day Rachel. Russell is getting so big.... So glad to hear all of you are OK in regard to the storms. Been watching the weather and y'all are really getting blast all around ya. Stay safe, please... 💖💖💖

[@marywrigjt7614]

What an incredibly beautiful day. You and Rachel rock.!!! 👍👍❤️🇺🇸✝️

[@rowenaroberts813]

You guys are so lucky you didn’t lose all those goats. Well done Rachel. You’re a champion. So are the dogs for staying with the goats to keep them safe. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@joanharkin6540]

Good job Kevin!! I'm so happy you guys are all right!! This spring/summer been bad for everyone!! Prayers for everyone 🙏 ❤️

[@earlhowze8622]

I'm praying for you all to bounce back from this storm! Looks like Lensky was affected by the storm, and I'm sure all the other animals are as well. I know your area is getting frequent storms! I am praying for your continued strength in the midst of these storms.

[@lillianperry6451]

Glad Rachel was such a trooper. Fun watching you use the tractor.

[@catfishm.1361]

Maybe do a culvert and new fence with some solar hot wires across top middle and bottom of that area. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ellac2263]

Thankful y’all are ok. Happy Mother’s Day to your lovely wife. 🥰🌹.

[@sandyg3639]

Rachel, I am so glad that you found the goats and dogs and was able to get them back to there pasture. Kevin, thank you for filling the hole with debris. You both take such great care of all your animals. Happy Mother's Day Rachel. 💖💐

[@HiddenHeightsFarm]

Thank you for watching

[@karenturner7983]

I am thankful you are are safe. Great job getting the critters back in their paster, Rachel. Great job filling up their escape route, Kevin.

[@HiddenHeightsFarm]

Thank you!

[@joannemckinley2487]

Happy Mother's Day to Rachel! I am glad you are all safe after that storm. I'm also glad that Rachel was able to get all the goats back on the correct side of the fence, as well as Kora. Kora stayed with the herd. Well done, also to Kevin for filling in that area to shore it up more, and hopefully prevent the goats and dogs from getting out again. It's cute to see the baby goats gamboling around with their baby goat energy, and to see Russell being playful, too. He is growing up fast.

[@chillbilly2517]

Looks like Russel's limping a bit. Praise God you were spared of worse. Go Fund Me and let us help you out.

[@carolinepetersen1452]

Always impressed with your skills using the heavy equipment. Well done! Happy Mother's Day to Rachel. Blessings to you all from northern Illinois.

[@HiddenHeightsFarm]

Thanks so much!

[@jandavis1362]

Am very glad that Rachel actually chased the goats back home and neither goats or dogs got hurt. Or Rachel either. You guys are a good team. Happy Mother's day to Rachel.

[@Fig1942]

Happy Mother's Day, Rachael! ❤

[@Raymondspongey]

Love you guys. This is the best shpw on the tube.I am 64 years old from Wales, UK and you and Rachel and family and especially the livestock have taught me so much about nature and farming that i would always have taken for granted . Please don't ever stop showing us life on Hidden Heights, it's just so good and so informative. Thanks for brightening up our days !

[@amyolson8017]

Happy Mother’s Day Rachel

[@gaylevincent2397]

Happy Mother’s Day everyone ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ so happy that you found your animals ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Happy Blessed Mother's Day Rachel 💐🌻💐🌻💐🌻💐🌻🌺🌼🌹🌸🏵️🌺🌼🌹🌸🏵️

[@oliviahossell1747]

I am happy that you all are safe . I pray you find all the animals and dogs keep us updated. Blessings

[@joanneganon7157]

Hey Kevin and Rachel, thank goodness you are all okay and none of the animals were harmed 😳! JO JO IN VT 💞 Happy Mothers day Rachel 💗🌷🎁🤗

[@dawnbrown2863]

Glad Rachel was able to get them back and you were able to filling the area by the fence.

[@oliviahossell1747]

I am happy to hear Rachel have them all safe in and the dogs .❤

[@joanharkin6540]

Happy Mother's Day Rachel!! Wow great job saving the goats n dogs!! Glad you were out n but this morning!! Love n Blessings

[@anj3595]

That Rachel is the Best!

[@bettyhutcheson9318]

Glad Rachel could get the animals back. Dont you figure they were trying to get away from storm rather than just running off. Thats way Cora stayed with them so they wouldn't leave property. Just my theory. Keep up the good work ❤😊❤

[@gailhoffmann9498]

Happy Mother's Day Rachel! Congrats on saving the day this morning! Kevin, watching you wrangle that Kubota to fill in the gaps was impressive. So happy all the goatie-goats and other animals were safe. 👍

[@cherylscott7251]

Great team work with you and Rachel Kevin. So glad all the animals are ok. ❤✌️🦘

[@donnasuehoward4020]

Wow looks like Russell has doubled in size since the last video ❤❤ would a drain and pipe under the fence help with the overflow ❤ I know we all make comments and it takes time and money to fix... It's your farm and y'all are doing a great job with All the animals 😊❤❤❤

[@tiachandler5350]

Omg Russell has grown so freaking much i cant believe how big he is now hes just so dang adorable......happy Mother's day Rachel i hope you had a great day beautiful.....

[@lorenrobertson8039]

You go Racheal! Amazing job saving the goats and dogs. You were so brave! Is there anyway to fence that area off so that the dogs and goats cannot even get to that area of the property that puts them at risk? They look determined to investigate and make trouble down there! Glad you have that tractor and had all that concrete and junk to fill in the hole. That is going to take some engineering to fix the issues. Russell is getting so big. I'm so comforted to know your family has a storm shelter. I hope you don't need it again anytime soon. Love and prayers~

[@fondadeen1164]

Boy what a job to cone hone too I'm so glad Raxhel was able to get the dogs and goats home and get a temp fix until you were able to get home to use the tractor

[@kellyfarrell8180]

SENDING PRAYERS TO EVERYONE EFFECTED BY THESE STORMS I AM SO GLAD YOU AND YOUR AMAZING FAMILY ARE OK GOD BLESS HAPPY MOTHERS DAY RACHEL ❤

[@adorablespore]

Rachel did a great job! What a relief she was able to catch the animals in time

[@judypritchett8271]

Every thing looks so green and beautiful. Rachel to the rescue…again.

[@msnelson0524]

Happy Mother’s Day Rachel! My 30 year Kyah took me out to lunch today! I hope your Mother’s Day was as great as you!

[@ruthkringle1353]

Happy Mother’s Day and so glad the storms didn’t do much damage.

[@alicemattsen2208]

You and Rachel are such a good team. You seem to make a lot of wise choices. Happy Mother’s Day Rachel!

[@Buddha-of8fk]

Grandpa told me a really long time ago if you don't see any birds there is Tornadoes around. Animals know a lot more than we do about the weather.

[@susanssoap9602]

The best option I could think of that fence is putting a covert. That way, when it does flood, it goes underneath the fence underneath the land bridge and out safely

[@MabesMolnar]

Happy Mothers day 💐 to Rachel.Good job with the fence.

[@lindastowars7346]

YOU HAVE SUCH A CLEAN PRETTY HOMESTEAD, SOME HAVE JUNK EVERYWHERE BUT AT LEAST YOU ONLY HAVE ONE AREA FOR JUNK, GLAD ALL ANIMALS ARE FINE

[@HiddenHeightsFarm]

Thank you, it's hard to not have some junk

[@barbarawalsh4936]

Happy Mother's Day, Rachel. Glad to hear everyone, and all animals are safe.

[@ja_Iam]

Oh my. So grateful Rachel was able to get them back home before they wandered away.

[@retabates3799]

Hi Kevin, Kevin you have been looking a little pail lately. I hope your diabetes is doing okay. Russell is getting so big. I am glad they didn't take off either or the goats, Yes thank you Rachel and Happy Mothers day, Love you guys God bless and until next time take care

[@TNBredRose]

Im proud of Rachel. That was a hard job. Also, check Russell out. His hind left hip looks hurt. You can see it on camera

[@patriciaturner4997]

Good job Rachel. Glad you had everything under control. Kevin, be careful not to go to high with your pile at the fence. Don't want the goats jumping over the fence. Are the coyotes over on the other side? Heard some good ideas from a few people. Putting a pipe under the fence that can hold the water & not destroy the fence like poor Sean. Very glad everything & everyone is safe. Some scary storms. Even in Florida. May the Lord continue to Bless you and your family and friends and your critters 🙏🙏 🕊️ Peace and Love 💕 from Maryland ❤️. God Bless HHF and the animals. Hope the donkeys are okay too ,& Olaf

[@bobzboo]

Great Video! I am so thankful that the Rachael was able to get the holes patched up and the animals were unharmed. It was fun watching to plug the holes. Praying you guys don’t have any more serious storms. Water can literally be mean the difference between life or death … too much is very dangerous to land and animal. Hugs! Thanx for taking time out for us. 🤗~Becka

[@suziedrust9194]

God Bless Rachel🙏 She really had a mess on her hands. What an amazing woman. That had to be difficult getting all those animals back on to the right side of the fence!! I will be praying the rain stops or isn’t a heavy downpour. Happy Mother’s Day Rachel ❤️❤️❤️ Hugs and Love to you all and all the animals. Grammie Suzie

[@LindaSmith-vq1br]

Water is amazingly powerful and capable of moving a lot of matter. A culvert would be a preferred fix but I suspect that you would need to put in one of a sizeable diameter. I suspect that the cost of the piping and the scale of the project would make it fairly impractical. The bit of your wet weather creek that you showed us gave me an idea of the amount of water that can go through it at any one time. Hopefully your repair will hold for a while. Stay safe!

[@CH.2024.]

BEAUTIFUL piece of property. Have such respect for your ethic -- faith, family and work! ALL THE BEST! and RUSSELL is one handsome BOY!

[@lindahipp8329]

Glad y'all did good through the storms. That had to be scary finding out your animals are missing. Hope that fixes the problem. GOD bless y'all. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY RACHAEL

[@michelleharrell8452]

That camera will give you peace of mind. Also helps to identify who or what is back there. I have been thinking of you & praying you & family including animals are all OK.

[@maryrussell979]

I love how you make sure your animals are safe. Take care and stay safe. God bless

[@davidbingham7404]

Rachael great save and Kevin also. Glad all the animals are still on the farm with Russell. Maybe you should put a small pipe that would help with the water, but not big enough for the goats to get through as a suggestion. David B.,Utah. 🐕🐕🐈🇺🇲❤❤❤.

[@pammager7135]

That storm probably scared the heck out of all the animals! I'm glad Rachel was able to find them and bring them back. I had heard on the news the day of the tornado when they mentioned Sulphur. I thought Holy Cow! So many families I watch on KZbin. I felt so concerned for all the families. The town really got hammered. It was so nice, so many people came out and helped your community!

[@robinstaier7624]

My suggestion would be to put in two smaller ponds not very deep to slow the water down and would drain fast. The speed of the water is what causes the most damage.

[@user-ni2ge8ph9e]

You are a great farmer and I enjoy watching you and your family. God bless you guys

[@peggymenser6574]

I'm glad all your animals are home safe and sound. Putting in a cement spillway there will probably stop the erosion there. Then you can put a better fence through there that the goats and dogs can't jump. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY Rachel. I would love to be a mom but it just wasn't in the cards for me. Cancer took that opportunity away but I do have cats so I'm their mom that works. I get told I'm not a mother so I can't celebrate mothers day. Years ago my own mom bought me a flower to plant for mothers day and put to mom from JJ on it. JJ was one of my cats I just lost him last year. Mom has been gone for 6 years now. I hope that doesn't wash out again for a long time

[@texasgirl3052]

Happy Mothers Day🌹🌹🌹

[@krisadams327]

Team work makes the Dreams Work! Good job guys! I'd hate to think of the dogs leaving and not come back. But im pretty sure they'd all come back even the goats, i hope!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY RACHEL. GOD BLESS YOU SWEET GIRL.

[@susanabramson843]

[@margesteinmetz863]

Happy Mother's Day Rachel 💐. So glad you were able to rangle the goats and dogs back home and no one had any injuries 👍. Praying for those affected by the storms and everyone's safety. Blessings 🙏🫶🙏🫶

[@lindajohnson4204]

I knew, on the one hand, that I probably shouldn't be worried. But I was. I have been admiring how beautiful Oklahoma is, but you guys still have Tennessee beat for Tornado Alley.

[@RunningGreyWolf]

Great job Rachael! You're a BOSS lady!!!

[@user-ox7jf4oc8r]

Great job getting the goats and dogs back Rachel and blocking the giant hole under the fence. You too Kevin since you reinforced everything and added more rocks and debris to block the animals from trying to escape there again. You’re a good team!! I’m happy the dogs are okay and I’m assuming Mojo and Smeegle are okay. I hope Mojo wasn’t too scared. Is Grace okay? Anyway, thank goodness you and the kids and Skeeter are okay too. Happy Mother’s Day Rachel! You’re a wonderful Mom. 🌹🪻🌸🌺🌷🌼🌻 I hope you have a wonderful evening and can relax now. Take care. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Good Morning Kevin, would something like a couple of French drains help in this area to direct the water to a more suitable area ?…Praying for everyone to be safe and sound during all of these stormy times…God Bless❤

[@gaylerichards7409]

Great coverage between you and Rachel. Glad it worked out. I can’t believe how big Russell is! Stay safe out there. I hear more storms are expected.

Glad the goats stayed close. God Bless. ❤🙏

[@debbeasher-k4764]

Perhaps, put up a fence to separate that area from the goats.That way, the won’t have easy access to the dumping area nor that damaged fence area.❤😊
