I'm SORRY | Apologizing to my neighbor for my CHICKEN Problem

[@tall14dude]

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. 🙏

[@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 🐓

[@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.

[@gwtolley]

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

[@jenniferward5216]

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

[@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

[@opalezell319]

Good neighbor,good dad,good son.

[@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

[@gloriahopper6289]

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

[@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

[@delorisefrye6285]

Great job guys. Wish every neighbor was like that.

[@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.

[@mistysather8952]

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

[@eugenewilkerson1307]

Your young men looking sharp awesome workers.

[@bradfordcoleman5130]

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

[@farrfamilyfarm6597]

Good man! Setting a good example for your family.

[@Christiscomingquickly]

Love this episode🥰 Lord bless your family.

[@farrfamilyfarm6597]

Obedience is better than sacrifice.

[@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!

[@cynthiaarmstronghopefulhom9672]

Im sure your neighbors appreciate you and your family.😊

[@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.😀

[@nellcovington4001]

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

[@deborahtofflemire7727]

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

[@Lake-girl2024]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@rperry1410]

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

[@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.

[@megmills1697]

Nice seeing children work together ❤

[@artkeyes]

Im ecstatic you proclaimed the word.

[@megmills1697]

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

[@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!

[@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.

[@barbarabrand190]

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

[@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.

[@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

[@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

[@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.

[@cherrildurand7495]

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

[@tamararoberts9307]

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

[@colleenhager4507]

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

[@IreneNevins]

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

[@pamelasimpson6831]

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

[@terrykunst3883]

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

[@doloreshart7952]

Will the chickens climb on top of the mulch pile and fly over the fence? Looks like the fence is too close to part of the mulch pile!

[@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! ❤👍

[@mauriceryton]

Good life lesson for the boys. Great parenting too.

[@saravt868]

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

[@jacquelinehudson9054]

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

[@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.

[@leahr.2620]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@bjgigout9832]

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

[@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

[@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.

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.

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

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

[@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!

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@idahohoosier8989]

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

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 🙏

[@megmills1697]

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

[@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.

[@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 ❤️🙏✝️🙋🏻

[@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!

[@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....

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

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

[@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.

[@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. 💖😊🐔🥚🍳♻️

[@GS-rw9og]

[@terryjohnson6392]

Great job you and the kids did cleaning up your neighbors beds after your chickens caused.

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. ❤️

Great Video & great neighbors - when things happen that have been caused by your animals/pets it is best to fix that relationship & you guys certainly did. Cheers Denise- Australia
