Exactly the reason I couldn't live on a farm 😁 These animals have emotions, feelings, etc. just like we do. Pigs are especially SUPER smart, loveable, actually very clean. They can be potty trained. So many people have them as indoor pets. I get too attached to animals. Couldn't do it. Sorry Big Chungus! I feel for you. ❤

If u do hav to butcher an animal for feed, the least u can do is give it the best life possible till the end. I'm glad u shared that Rachael. That's not nothing. So many humans disrespect & just use animals for their own benefit or disregard them altogether & ignore them as live beings. I'm so glad u guys love, respect, & care for yor animals b/c they are giving the ultimate gift to u-- their lives.

Big Chungys is a cutie she's an Oreo, too, lol. I am a meat eater and I know animals have to be butchered to get that meat but I don't think I could raise one then have it butchered. I'd get to attached to it. Thank y'all for sharing this part of your lives with us it was a pleasure. Gods blessings to you all !!!

Rachel, you did a very eloquent job explaining the realities of farming to the viewers who have lived their lives disconnected from the source of their food. So many people have become distant from nature, the cycles of life and death, that are an integral part of raising animals and food.

So we had a small family dairy farm... Only 117 acres. We kept a steer calf to fill our freezer with beef. 2 of my favorite ones were Storm and Charlie. As big as they were, they were so gentle. We could sit on them when they were laying down, and we'd pet them. Sometimes, Charlie would stand up with us on him and not throw us. I was just a teenager but always knew where they'd end up. Too many people don't know where their food comes from. We loved all of them. ❤

Ok no worries Kevin I adore you, but I get so happy and excited when Rachel is on the videos 😊 She's so pretty and is always happy. Now we had a ranch not a farm ( there is a difference) We raised APHA, AQHA horses. Now we did have a few of everything, mini pigs, chickens, goats, sheep etc. But ours were only pets. Now saying that.....I have no problem with folks who raise their livestock for food. And I will admit there's nothing better than fresh home grown meat and what not, especially knowing there's no chemicals in them. I love ya'lls videos and seeing all your critters. Thanks for another great video, and thanks for joining us Rachel, it was so nice seeing your beautiful smile. Cora you stay home now, ya hear?!?! Chicken coop looks great 😊.

Well said Rachael. I will never understand how some people don't understand that small farms/farmers raising their own meats is way more humane than big ranches. I'm not saying big ranches don't care for their animals but when animals are mass produced there can't be time to show love and compassion as a small operation can. And Kevin any chicken would be proud to call the new chicken house a home. You definitely do need to build some shelves for stuff.😊

They deserve to live their best life, for as long as they are allowed to. Apart from that, I guess it is also beneficial for the quality of the meat, if the animal is happy and not stressed out all the time.

Hello Kevin and Rachel Your new pig looks great! It can be hard for people to understand living and caring about an animal with the end purpose being to harvest and freeze them. They are being loved, well fed, cared for, talked to every day. Their lives will be honored. They will nurture the family. Respecting and caring for the animals we eventually eat. It’s what homesteaders and farmers have done for a very long time. Blessings ❤ ~Linda

A little more fat around its waist line than a large white or landrace breed. Great idea to have a solar light in the chicken coop. I'm sure mojo will be in full security mode ,once the chickens are in there. and the house dog and cats will have something new to torment through the wire on a daily basis.😂. heres wishing all good health, and fingers crossed for some rain soon for you.
