If every neighbor took responsibility and respect like you, we would be living a different world. I look forward to that day.

[@PsalmS-vi8zl]

Watching how you "train up a child" - it is heart-warming and inspirational. You did not just tell your kids about doing the right thing - you showed them and then went the extra mile. May the LORD continue to bless the work of your hands. Shalom.

[@hopedeclared3673]

“Love thy neighbor” comes to mind. What a beautiful thing to fix the problem AND do a little extra lawn care for them. 🙏

[@craftygranny8035]

Mike, my 1st husband lost his job when I was pregnant with our second child. We had 2 babies in diapers, with no job prospects at the time, he too mowed lawns. Just like you he put his lawnmower and tools in the trunk of car and knocked on peoples doors looking for lawn work. He kept us afloat for 3 months before he found another job, there is no shame in hard work.

[@charleswise5570]

Mike, you're teaching way more people, than just your children. How many people watching this, will think about your video, and maybe, teach a friend, son or daughter, or even their children? Fantastic! We need more people like you! Thank you brother!

[@justincase2467]

Now the neighbor will be hoping they get out more often 🐓

[@jenniferward5216]

You're a great dad Mike your kids will grow up to be so disciplined. I love how you and Lacey parent.

[@gwtolley]

You all are so awesome. Talk the Talk and Walk the Walk. This is why I enjoy watching your channel.

[@rebacrow5604]

You are such a fine example of what a Christian and a dad should do. Your children are so lucky to have parents like YALL. Beblessed

[@prattsmark1]

It is so nice to see someone take responsibility for the actions of their animals and not make excuses. Love this channel for this very reason and because of the realness of your every day life, that things are not always perfect. This is so encouraging to me in my walk. Also love that you are raising your children to be good stewards.

[@shannongnazzio6844]

Big respect! I raised my kids the same way, thank you for teaching your kids right too🙏🏻❤️God bless

[@bradfordcoleman5130]

Life didn't go the way that I had planned brother but I wished I had sons and daughters and I am encouraged everytime I view your channel

[@charlenefoster6779]

You guys are the best. You taught your children an extremely important lesson about righting a wrong, and going the extra mile. It takes courage to do that.

[@gloriahopper6289]

You all did a great thing and even went above an beyond. Nice job guys!

[@delorisefrye6285]

Great job guys. Wish every neighbor was like that.

[@mistysather8952]

WOW! We need more GREAT MEN like You Guys in this World!

[@opalezell319]

Good neighbor,good dad,good son.

[@Christiscomingquickly]

Love this episode🥰 Lord bless your family.

[@bradfordcoleman5130]

U and your family are an inspiration to others. May God's blessings overflow you and your family brother, Amen

[@cynthiaarmstronghopefulhom9672]

Im sure your neighbors appreciate you and your family.😊

[@deborahtofflemire7727]

He looks like his mom ,his eyes and smile are like hers

[@farrfamilyfarm6597]

Good man! Setting a good example for your family.

[@happycamper3977]

That was a beautiful thing what y’all did for your neighbors 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@robynrhoades7139]

Great work guys! Wish all people took responsibility for things like that and thought of how to do the right thing. You are teaching your children very well. May God bless you richly!

[@eugenewilkerson1307]

Your young men looking sharp awesome workers.

[@dlynch1898]

You Mike and your boys did a lovely job going the extra mile for your neighbors. TFS I love watching your channel. Many blessings and much love.👍💕

[@justgoodness333littlehomes5]

I can't believe how tall Josiah is getting. Wow.

[@mylittleruralhomestead]

Because of people like you, this place is a little bit better. What a great inspiration to others. Thank you so much for sharing.😀

[@sunhippie]

Y’all make my heart happy 🥰

[@toneyjohnson8910]

I think it is great that you went the extra mile for your neighbors, its always better to do the little extra. And a great lesson for the kids.

[@nellcovington4001]

What an amazing lesson you taught your children by letting them help you with the repairs in your neighbor's yard.

[@rperry1410]

Mike I appreciate your spiritual leadership that you provide for your family and the KZbin community.

[@annwithaplan9766]

Hey guys! I did the same thing with my chicken netting when I first got my chickens. I used a smaller holed, more flexible netting inside my premier1 netting and it worked. I just got the same netting last month that you got there, which I'm going to use to separate soon-to-come chicks inside the main run from the others. Glad you made amends with the neighbors. Before I had chickens, the neighbors 2 chickens kept coming into my yard and destroying my gardens. It was upsetting, specially since they did nothing to stop them. My landlady (on the other side or me) finally told them if they didn't quit, they'd end up in the pot. So the neighbors put them in a pen, and the very next day one of the chickens died. I felt bad, but was strange it died right after that.

[@barbarabrand190]

You are a good neighbor! Your boys are a true support, but Micah is just killing me with those sunglasses! Way cool...

[@maggidull1952]

Many hands make light work. Boy, it's nice to have the kids help out...teaches them a lot, like problem solving and responsibility. I also thought it would be nice gesture to give the neighbors some eggs. Nice video.

[@obtainingmercycroft]

I'll add my agreement to the other commenters - loved this video! We've been watching for a few months & are enjoying your content. This one that taught a Scriptural principal was especially encouraging.

[@cynthiabrennemann3513]

We always serve our neighbors 'revenge soup' when we cull our problem boys. Keeps things friendly. Our neighbors have not noticed any damage done by our birds, but they can get loud when they are crowing nonstop as we grow them out.

[@farrfamilyfarm6597]

Obedience is better than sacrifice.

[@thresholdhomestead]

Loved watching this video, reminded me of the days of homeschooling and raising my son and daughter on the farm. Sure miss those days! Y’all are doing an amazing job of being the best family y’all can be! These memories made will last forever! That netting idea is genius!

[@fearthehoneybadger]

Apologizing for something you truly did wrong shows you're a man: not a chicken.

[@megmills1697]

Josiah is growing so,,,,and helping alot good lessons to support his family when time comes

[@lindalagarce8996]

What a Godly example you and Lacey are in front of the kids and teaching them the ways of the Bible! Gods word will always prevail in their lives! Hugs and love from Texas!

[@sarahmcalpine2058]

You guys and your children bless my socks off almost every time I get to sit and really watch your videos. (I have five myself so, sometimes I just listen.)💜

[@sarahmcalpine2058]

And DEFINITELY keep giving eggs to your neighbors! ❤👍

[@cherrildurand7495]

Loving how you teach your children godly principles in practical ways and good working ethic.

[@mammahasspoken]

Chickens are infamous for doing that to landscaping for sure. Surprised that you didn't feed the chickweed to your chickens. It's a great source of calcium and protein for them and it's free. My chickens gobble it down whenever I feed it to them.

[@tamararoberts9307]

I am so proud of you Mike 👏 teaching your children to do the right thing and going the extra too ♡ ❤️ ♡

[@megmills1697]

Nice seeing children work together ❤

[@IreneNevins]

It was so nice seeing more of Josiah and how he's growing into a young man.

[@debbiewhite3601]

Doing the right thing and going beyond is simply Be~ing a good human. Thank you for Teaching your children through doing and setting a good example.

[@gaylewatkins4685]

Mike, teaching your children to go the extra mile is a wonderful thing. You are a great Dad and your children are very lucky. Take care and God Bless.

[@saravt868]

You’re setting an amazing example for your kids …and your viewers! Praise God for your thoughtfulness!

[@colleenhager4507]

Thank God for men like you! Your boys are going to be wonderful examples of what a man should be!🥰

[@robinwhitlatch4497]

So glad to see y’all took responsibility for damage the chickens did to the neighbors flower beds and going beyond what was needed to fix it. Great to see you be a wonderful role model for your children. So many people think it is ok to let dogs loose to create mayhem, chase people & livestock kill chickens and etc, and refuse to take responsibility and fix or pay for damage loose dogs do and loose livestock do to neighbors property and crops.

[@jacquelinehudson9054]

Love watching how the kids love working with there Dad. I’ve also enjoyed learning myself ✅

[@pearlmoore7969]

Josiah and the other kids are such a Great help! I enjoyed this video and got a laugh at how fast Josiah can run and catch those silly chickens

[@artkeyes]

Im ecstatic you proclaimed the word.

[@Warrior-In-the-Garden]

LOL- AWESOME DAD WISDOM "Don't chase 'em, you wanna sneak up on 'em slowly , don't let 'em know your speed, when you get close to 'em that's when you use that burst of speed, surprise 'em , catch 'em off guard, don't just run after 'em and chase 'em" That sir is life training... so that's how you got Ms. Lacey.

[@UserRandJ]

Hey guys- great video. I use a large fishing net to catch my chooks. The ones you use to land big fish after catching. Or a pond net. The chooks respond to the aluminium pole so you don't need to chase them- they herd to where you need- and then you net them easy. Have fun J & R

[@dionandkat]

This is a good one Mike! Great lessons for the kids and excellent use of resources

[@dionandkat]

Haha. I liked my own comment. SMH

[@pamelasimpson6831]

Such a good Daddy!! Great lessons to be learned by the children...

[@bjgigout9832]

Couldn’t love this any more. Such a character-building and Godly principled lesson for your children and for us all.

[@bonniestawski219]

You are a great neighbor! Love this video God bless each of you. Loving y'all! From Paris Tennessee

[@masunshine2970]

You guys did a wonderful job and that taught you children a wonderful lesson on how to go and take care of the neighbor and make a minze for what your animals did. 💗💗💗💗💗🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@amberkuehn9115]

Thank you for teaching your children to go above and beyond. You guys are raising great children. Wish all children had that type of upbringing. There's a difference between children growing up and being raised. Yours are being raised.

[@idahohoosier8989]

Y'all are the perfect neighbors and such a perfect lesson for the kiddos to learn. Peace and blessings, julie

[@terrykunst3883]

Awesome idea with the fence! Great way to use the hoop house.

[@MastinoNapoletano420]

I love the advice and lessons you teach in your videos. Your children are going to be amazing individuals! Massive respect to the way you are raising them. May the Lord bless you, them, your neighbors and of course, your chickens! Thank you Mike 🙏

[@ceceliadavis1999]

You did the right thing for the neighbors, and teaching the children about being responsible for the wrong that happened even though it wasn't intentional is a great lesson that they will remember forever.

[@brendah4773]

Y’all are just good people ❤️ Blessings will be returned ❤️

[@anniegaddis5240]

Good job... we need MORE people like your family!

[@StoneKathryn]

Chicken problem? My sister has that problem that the free range chickens of her neighbor come over and unplant her strawberries every year. She has complained about it to them and they haven't done anything. They also have two big dogs they let free to roam around and she has to bring dog treats to be able to put her garbage in her garbage bin or the dogs will scare her. I'm glad you're fixing the problem. Wow, Cody is really big already! Great, get the chickens moved and working on compost with a better fence to keep them in. Great job Josiah and Mike! Thanks for this.

[@cherylcallahan5402]

[@GS-rw9og]

greatest teaching and learning experience for kids. and excellent quality time with dad!

[@beckystone7994]

Great teaching experience for the children and that you went the extra mile pulling their weeds and giving them eggs from the offenders to their property is also a wonderful gift and teaching experience for the children!! You snd Lacey are great parents Mike and I really enjoy your page ! God bless ❤️🙏✝️🙋🏻

[@EarthStudent7]

Going above and beyond for your neighbor was so wonderful to watch! We ordered some Redmond Salt after watching your travel van video and made sure to let them know that we were referred by your channel.

[@choirmom78]

Good life lessons...thanks Mike and sweet kids.

[@clucketycluck]

I'm pretty sure my neighbor sends her unwanted roosters to my run 🤣 Every now and then I wake up to extra roosters in my run. I free range mine during the daytime, but they're good about staying around.

[@mauriceryton]

Good life lesson for the boys. Great parenting too.

[@TemperrQuake]

What an amazing and inspirational video! Love to see the goodness in the world! You deserve all the blessings headed your way!

[@poweredbybubbles]

Good on you for being honest and responsible!

[@vkenn60]

I'm sure the neighbor is going to enjoy those eggs, very nice of you. Hopefully they will see all the weeds are gone as well. Love Thy Neighbor....

[@juliangarcia-sp4vp]

Love it guys, what a way to be a over the top neighbor…those kids ROCK!

[@darrenthomas6868]

Neighbors are our friends and if we reach out to them, then good things happen. Friends grow like plants in a garden. Love the way you are raising your children with respect, hard work, guiding them to be self efficient in latter years. You have a great channel and I wait to see what you do next.

[@YayaJ4579]

Beautiful work ethics for the children...Training up a child in the way they should go...loving it...i also appreciated the Torah teaching about correcting the wrong done to your neighbor...Now if YAH's children would work together like your children...thank you for sharing...Shalom! Shalom!

[@lorenazamor2939]

Wonderful father teaching the children's to be responsible hi from asheville nc

[@juneschwierjohn5512]

What good boys you have!! Not only are they learning how to work, they are learning how to be good neighbors. Reminds me of when my brother and I were sent over to help neighbors when we were kids. Our pay was knowing we did a good job and we were appreciated. Chickens have no sense. I have 4 myself for five years now. I share eggs with my neighbors all the time, *blue, pale green, olive green, and huge white). I'm lucky, my neighbors like my chickens. I live in town.

[@kellijomo]

Wish I could LOVE this a thousand times!

[@glendaruff125]

Your kids are great helpers.

[@gailmarlatt8029]

Great idea on the fence. We have had a hard time keeping juvenile chickens from going through the electric fence. Keep us updated on how it’s working please.

[@leahr.2620]

Looks like the added netting will make the premiere fencing less likely to tangle. 👍👍

[@alicewong1633]

Good job in living out the teachings of the bible and showing your children the right way. As you honor God in loving your neighbour as yourself you are shining brightly for the Lord. Action speaks better than word. Keep up the good work. Watching from Singapore. Shalom

[@toedancer1148]

Good neighbors are so nice to have. I found some Velcro straps that I like better than using the strings for those fences.

[@blueangelsfan4072]

Claiming responsibility is one of the best lessons to teach. Great job on the clean up. Since I can't do all that bending, I would sweep/rake then offer up fresh chicken eggs. 💖😊🐔🥚🍳♻️

[@megmills1697]

Good you are training up your children in the way they should go,,,,this is one reason I like your channel

[@megmills1697]

Oooooo GREAT IDEA zip tying deer fencing to premier fencing🙂

[@buff10751]

Great videos. You make it look easy. it is amazing how your daughter moves the goats easy. I can't wait until you post more videos

[@judithtucker6928]

Awesome example of doing the right thing! On a side note love those shades micha looking cool 😎

[@frontyardfoodwithgardenergray]

Watching you show such heart and responsibility, and teaching it to your children is beautiful. P.s. my daughter says Micah is a cool name! Lol. ❤️

[@nellcovington4001]

I like Joshiah's perfect chair. All he needed was a good book.😊

[@RootedResilienceLife]

I love the way you live out your beliefs and kudos to you for showing your kids through your actions how to do the right thing. Keep up the great work!
