We Have A Hay Issue and New Pond is Finished!

[@milkweed697]

Mold spores can travel very easily … please keep the two hay purchases in separate buildings.

[@jerrigeiger5234]

That's exactly what I was going to say!

[@dawnminturn]

LESTER BREATHING IN THOSE MOLD SPORES OFF OF THAT HAY (IF IN FACT IT HAS MOLD) CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. YA'LL PLEASE GO GET CHECKED. 😊

[@lesliebiggar8143]

I hope you did a hold or stop payment on that check!!! MOLD is no joke & as everyone is stating you & Ben should both get checked out!!! Very harmful & your smart horses know this!!!!! MR. Jeremy has been a blessing!!! Thank you so much sir for the amazing work on the ponds!!!!😊😊😊

My dad passed away suddenly in Tyler a week ago. I drove to the viewing, service and burial on Tuesday from Oklahoma City. I’ve never felt so lost in my life. I could truly use prayers. I sang “the muffin man” to myself when I got super stressed

My son’s friend’s father passed away from mold poisoning. Not a joking matter maybe wear glasses and a respirator mask next time unloading hay! Great job Ben! 🤗

[@milkweed697]

The mold might be causing your 'cold' symptoms and why it's taking longer to get over it!

[@BilliePennyH]

I would get checked out if it were me. If that was mold, breathing that dust in can cause issues.

[@conniefurger4963]

Lester go to the Doctor, stop payment on your check & get that hay tested... the pond area is going to be fantastic 💙❤💜

[@robinmacsinka7274]

I agree, you and Ben need to proactively see a doctor, just in case. Please!

[@rosewood710]

Pause: I just watched your Live, you were talking about the horses not eating the hay. I told my hub that the video yesterday showed you and Ben not being able to breathe properly and we both said there had to be mold in the hay, Ben's hair when he shook it, the color of it looked odd too. The place you got it needs to be reported, so if anyone else has the same issue, it will be documented. Unpause.

[@devenlamar3900]

Mold dust is the worse, a grey color, and that's probably why the hay is lighter

[@devenlamar3900]

[@rosewood710]

Lester, you can take the hay to the place you had taken the soil from JL South property.

[@Alaska2446]

That would be impossible to have that much ",grey" mold and not be able to see it in the hay bale it self lol

[@ginacurtis1702]

I'm sure Jami is all over this with you and Ben inhaling the mold. Please pay attention to what she says. You've been sick so your body isn't a 100percent right now. Sending prayers. The new pond is a great addition to the property. Putting a screen over the front of the Calvert is a smart thing to do, any animals would find a way thru it. ❤❤❤

[@christinegates585]

A refusal of hay is a good sign of mold! Hopefully they will make it right. Thanks for the pond update. Thats going to be a nice addition to the property. The littles will surely enjoy that. Y’all have a great rest of your day😘💙❤️😘

[@debroahmoser5802]

Good afternoon, Lester!! I just got done watching former President Carter funeral. I'm praying your horses eat new Hay. I'm praying for the people and animals in LA California from the wild fire. I'm praying they will get some relief from the wild fire. Your pond is looking amazing!! ❤❤❤❤

[@teresarichardson5960]

Put stop payment on the check immediately. They may have gone straight to your bank and cashed it once they knew there was a problem. All it takes is a phone call and if it was a false alarm you can send another check or give them a credit card. Urgent!

[@SusanPoersch-rd7bj]

Hope the bad hay can be returned and no health issues for you guys. Remember you have all the babies counting on you to be there. Plus we don't want anything bad to happen to you guys. Pond looks great. Thank you for sharing your life with us.🙏🤗💖

[@susanblack7782]

Mr. Jeremy is a man who takes pride in his job skill, doing the best job for the job at hand. Thank you, for showing what having a good work ethic is.

[@julieobee3229]

Keep your new hay away from the contaminated hay. Spores can be airborne.

[@joycebrewer4150]

😢 Absolutely!! Moldy hay can be contagious to good hay! Don't stack it anywhere near the other!

[@DebraParker-cw8jy]

That Mr. Jeremy is one gem of a contractor. It is amazing you found him. So happy for the good things being done for your property.

[@DarkIcePrincess]

I highly recommend you putting up a piece of a goat fencing in the Culvert so the goats dont escape

[@eilemoo3272]

Well spotted 😂 I could see them do just that esp the zlittle one that escapes a lot

[@DarkIcePrincess]

@eilemoo3272 😂😂 When I seen it I was like pause then commented about the goats escaping if that was the case.

[@jenniferwentland1736]

It may seem silly that people are making such a big deal about it possibly being mold, but from past experience with that very issue, it’s no joking matter. My mom ended up suing the owner of the apartment complex she lived in years ago for that very reason, and she ended up with breathing problems because of it. Please be careful and aware of it for your own safety and health Lester and Ben!❤

[@daphneroy7595]

Jeremy & his crew definitely know how to work with the way the land flows & works with it & keeps it flowing correctly. Nice job.

[@777SavebyGrace77]

I watched your time lapse of you and Ben unloading the hay. You can see the hay dust in the air get thicker as time goes by. Be very careful, farmers lung is a very real threat and nothing to mess around with. I would go to the Dr. just to be proactive.

[@joycejohnson7640]

I hope that you have stopped payment on that check. Yes PLEASE check with your doctor. Your lungs are nothing to ignore if the hay is moldy. We need you around for a long time.❤

[@MichelleJamesC]

Oh Lester my heart overflows with joy at the sight of the new Pond and stream area. It appears he thought of so many things. All always mother nature will have the final word and as was said, Jeremy will make adjustments as needed. Oh how beautiful the vision is and I cannot wait to see it all in action. What I enjoyed seeing also, was the beautiful new spring that was found and left for the piggies to enjoy and wallow in. Oh they will absolutely love this feature- BONUS!! So happy to see all this. Thank You for sharing with us Lester. I hope you and Jami & all the babies, Have a beautifully blessed day. 😊 PS. Well done Mr. Jeremy and Crew!!

[@carolhankinsHankins2.0]

It would seem that there must be something definitely wrong with the hay because the animals have always loved it before this large load. Mold can do a lot of damage to the lungs; I learned this the hard way and still have scars on my lungs from it. I hope the new pond will work great and that all the animals will be safe when walking on the high slopes leading into the new pond.

[@denaalfers7028]

I would definitely get that hay away from your new hay. Take it back or have them come pick it up. Sounds like it would be a good idea anyway. Pond project looks good and I am praying that it is going to be good.

[@kathleengillis9973]

You may want to bleach out the hay barn when the bad stuff is gone! Mold spreads quickly

[@KellyWatts1302]

Oh no Lester 😢 May you and Ben be well ❤❤❤❤ Sorry about that hay 😢 May you be successful in returning it and getting good replacement hay 🙏🙌❤❤❤

[@tiffanytupper8983]

Good morning Lester! I am sorry about that hay I'm horribly allergic to mold I hope they will stand behind the product and give you new good hay. I'm excited for the new pond!😊🧡💜🧡

[@KellyWatts1302]

Lester your new pond could be the best ever with all those springs 🎉🎉🎉 So excited to see it fill 😂🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Kaystepnick]

Not good, the need to come get it and load it back on the trailer themselves. That mildew can cause you serious lung issues! The horses also.

[@lorriedauterman2443]

And any spores in the air could end up on the new hay he just bought.

[@CathyBatts-g5x]

I'm hoping it works as well as the pond on the other side, Looks like Mr. Jeremy has a Great plan! Looks really Great!

[@lisamilliman5764]

Lester - store the new bales in a different building. If there are mold spores, it can contaminate the new hay. That can have repercussions to your animals!!

[@littlebit62]

I’m happy you found Mr. Jeremy. Seems to be a honest man and knows what he’s talking about.

[@terriheilman-keck1832]

We could see the gray looking color on Ben's hair and when he brushed his hand across it, the dust of it flew off. Wash your Cap Lester and both of you wash your clothes seperately, don't forget to clean your shoes too. Thank goodness the Horses told Jamie immediately- they know. Home Depot, Lowe's have mold test kits, not sure if it works on hay. What about the Company you used to test your soil at your home land?

[@janelllaufs7462]

I can't believe they are finished allready. They worked fast. Looks great.. hope the goats and pigs will enjoy it. Good jobs to the team that worked there. Thank you for doing a great job for Lester and Jami.😊

[@nancyhbjmbryan7222]

What a beautiful project. Hope you figure out what’s wrong with the hay!

[@marlenedeal7124]

I hope the company that sold it will take responsibility if something is wrong with it I’m sure you spent $$$$ on it and dangerous for you & Ben

[@diannav1596]

Good luck with the hay , the pond area Amazing ! PLEASE SEE A DOCTOR IF IT IS MOLD.

[@kevinspears6236]

Can't wait to see the pond full.

[@robintucci1087]

Lester the new pond looks great. Please go and get checked out and Ben too. If the green hay is moldie and you were both breathing that in it's not good for your lungs.

[@Eph.6_10-20]

Lester - considering the Farmers Almanac prediction for the USA this year, I’m so glad you have so many natural sources of water. Hopefully this will see your animals through the predicted drought. I’m glad you’ve invested in this venture even for this reason alone. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 well done to Mr Jeremy and his guys! 😊

[@barbaraschuette7788]

Lester, I hope you stopped payment on that bad hay. If that was moldy hay, you and Ben may want to go to the doctor just as precautionary exposure to mold. It's a shame you can't trust people anymore. I'm glad the horses are being picky and finicky. You don't need your animals to get sick from bad hay. The new pond looks wonderful. Excited to see what the pigs think about it. Thank you for loving each and every one of your animals and making sure they get the best quality food and are living their best life❤❤❤

[@nancysimpson4246]

Good afternoon Lester Ben yes that is signs of mold in your hair when you cannot breathe your lungs feel heavy. That is the number one sign very bad watch your horses are very smart. They know the smells.😊 like always Lester. I enjoy your videos.😊

[@lorrieannhazelwood8516]

I'm relieved the horses didn't touch the hay and know better if it's bad. That's scary for their health and you and Ben breathing it my goodness. As for the new pond area I'll wait to judge til there's major rain to show if it worked or or not. Hoping that it does but as they say the proof is in the pudding 🤞🤞

[@ds3333]

Mr. Jeremy is a true blessing. If your hay is moldy, I hope you get your money back quickly.

[@joycebrewer4150]

And store good hay totally separate!!

[@CRAZYBETZ-z4s]

The pond project is looking great. With all that natural spring area being exposed more, maybe you'll be ok even if there is another dry year. Sure hope so!❤❤

Don't let the hay issue go!! Find out what's wrong with it?? Besides the cost the health issues can be harmful!!

[@PLB1962]

I'm so happy for y'all and Yes them babies are gonna love it I hope 🙏🙏

[@dianehammack2188]

Hi Lester. It's highly possible that the alfalfa was baled too green or sat in the field after some rain before it was baled. Either way, it's not good for ya'll to breathe or the horses to eat or breathe. I hppe you can get that straightened out. The only thing I see where you might have some trouble is the fence by the culvert. Making it where the goats can't finagle their way through it.

[@loisfehr7961]

The pond looks great! I'm looking forward to seeing it's full.

[@amandavalverde981]

Yep that’s one thing about alfalfa it has to be out of the weather or it molds easily 😊

[@Lauriescaglione210]

So glad to be a supporter and to see all the wonderful things you are able to do. Jeremy did an awesome job again and I'm so excited to see how the animals love it. Thank you Lester and Jami for all you do.❤🙏

Oh boy, moldy hay really would explain a lot. Better get Ben and yourself checked out. Mold is not to be taken lightly. Mr. Richardson already did such an amazing job, fixing the spillway in the horse pasture, that I trust him 100% with this second pond! Everything's looking great already.

[@stephaniebohn9002]

Don’t put the good hay next to the moldy hay. The spores can transfer to the good hay.

Lester was an adjuster all my 30 yrs, mold spores is no joke, a cple of our adjuster friends who did flood claims an were around tons of mold have died from mold in their lungs. They were surprised thought it was cancer but when tested it was mold. Probably won't hurt you once but keep it in mind luv ya'll

[@djahant]

Get checked quick both of you or you may end up in the hospital. Next, that pond guy is a genius. You have to understand that water always takes the easiest route and he has mastered how that works. I forget if you've posted his business before but please do so again because there aren't many people that understand water dynamics and engineering to put the water where you want it instead.

[@christinascheu2342]

Regarding the green hay that answer in previous clip was the opinion of the boy, whether others have complained or not isn't the issue. You need to get hold of the Dad and let him know, I guarantee his answer wont the same as the sons.

Hi Lester 👋 The pond is looking great! I'm sure you know Mouldy Hay can be dangerous for your horse,cattle, and yourselves as it can be contaminated with aspergillus spores and mycotoxins amongst other nasties which cause serious respiratory problems. Take care and love from 👋🇬🇧 xxx

That is awesome for the pigs. They will love the cool water wallow in the warmer /hotter days. The pond is so cool. Bet it doesn’t take long to fill up. Goat inspect 1-20 are on the job.

[@suzannmiller1468]

Mr. Jeanie knows his job well. He's probably been doing this for years. He and his crew are awesome. Mr. Jeramie is a keeper. The job looks absolutely amazing. I'm thinking that hay you got is moldy. Horses aren't going to eat something that's no good. Maybe you and Ben should get checked out after breathing all that bad hay. Are you still having a hard time breathing? Give your doc a call and talk to the nurse and the doctor will have you come in if he thinks it's important. 🎉🎉🎉
