Begin by understanding the project's scope: establishing fencing for a rotational grazing program. The presenter introduces two types of posts: a pigtail type and a step-in type, both used for temporary fencing, and highlights the use of 'Tornado Wire' (specifically Titan 13-48-12, good for sheep, cattle, goats, horses) for permanent fencing. He also briefly discusses the current shortage of wooden posts, making steel posts a more practical, long-lasting alternative. The core concept of training cows to 'hot wire' for controlled grazing is also introduced. https://www.youtube.com/embed/zkAU9GhKeEE 100 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/cows-shocking-experience-v14606530/manage-fence-tension-on-undulating-terrain-c3953942 2026-10-24T04:52:51.760Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zkAU9GhKeEE/hqdefault.jpg Manage Fence Tension on Undulating Terrain — COW'S SHOCKING EXPERIENCE! The presenter defines 'undulations' as the natural hills and hollows of the land. He explains that for permanent net-wire type fencing, the wire must be pulled tight *before* being secured to the posts. To accommodate uneven terrain, the fence needs to be pulled down in some spots and lifted in others. This is achieved by using a tractor with pallet forks to apply tension to the Tornado Wire. Special wire ties, attached using a DeWalt 18V drill with a specialized chuck, are used to secure the tensioned wire to the steel posts. The Tornado Wire used is described as Titan 13-48-12, signifying 13 line wires, 48 inches high, with 12-inch stay spacing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/zkAU9GhKeEE 120 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/cows-shocking-experience-v14606530/attaching-tornado-wire-to-steel-posts-with-wire-ties-c3953943 2026-10-24T04:52:51.760Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zkAU9GhKeEE/hqdefault.jpg Attaching Tornado Wire to Steel Posts with Wire Ties — COW'S SHOCKING EXPERIENCE! Take a wire tie and loop it around a line wire of the Tornado Wire fence, ensuring it overlaps. Then, wrap the tie around the steel post. Pinch the ends of the wire tie together and insert them into the specialized drill chuck attached to the DeWalt drill. Activate the drill to twist the tie tightly around the post and fence wire. The drill chuck is designed to twist and break off the excess ends of the tie cleanly, leaving a secure connection. Repeat this process for each required tie along the post. The number of ties per post (5, 7, or 13) varies based on the stress level at that particular point on the fence line. https://www.youtube.com/embed/zkAU9GhKeEE 276 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/cows-shocking-experience-v14606530/training-cows-to-electric-fences-c3953944 2026-10-24T04:52:51.760Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zkAU9GhKeEE/hqdefault.jpg Training Cows to Electric Fences — COW'S SHOCKING EXPERIENCE! Introduce the cows to the electric fence by allowing them to be naturally curious. The presenter demonstrates using temporary step-in posts, specifically pigtail type and multi-clip type posts from Strain Right, with polybraid wire. The polybraid is easy to install by simply running it through the top clip of the posts. This electric fence acts as a 'psychological barrier' rather than a physical one. Cows will receive a mild shock when they investigate, quickly learning to respect the boundary. The aim is for the cows to learn to differentiate safe grazing areas from restricted ones. https://www.youtube.com/embed/zkAU9GhKeEE 394 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/cows-shocking-experience-v14606530/connect-and-ground-the-electric-fence-charger-c3953945 2026-10-24T04:52:51.760Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zkAU9GhKeEE/hqdefault.jpg Connect and Ground the Electric Fence Charger — COW'S SHOCKING EXPERIENCE! The solar-powered IntelliShock 120 fence charger (from Premier 1) is used to energize the temporary fence. It contains two batteries and features a solar panel that must be oriented southward to maximize sunlight exposure and ensure proper charging. The charger is easily connected to the polybraid wire using alligator clips. For grounding, one clip is attached to the polybraid while the other is clipped to a metal gate or fence post, which is then driven into the ground. This setup ensures the fence is properly grounded and operational. https://www.youtube.com/embed/zkAU9GhKeEE 240 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-firewood-cutting-tool-like-this-v14606531 2026-10-22T22:24:45.233Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tByaPmQgG6Q/hqdefault.jpg You've never seen a firewood Cutting tool like this!

The video begins with an introduction to the project's primary objectives. The presenter stands next to his red TYM 254 compact tractor, affectionately named 'Little T,' which is equipped with a BY60 backhoe attachment. He highlights the initial problem: a ditch on his property that retains standing water, especially during springtime, creating a mosquito breeding ground. He points out the still water in the ditch. The secondary problem is a narrow section of the driveway entrance that causes delivery drivers (FedEx, UPS, Amazon) to frequently run off into the ditch, damaging their vehicles and the property. The goal is to address both drainage and accessibility issues using the tractor and backhoe, and by extending a culvert pipe. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xJbVKO1UXpE 79 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/ups-truck-almost-flipped-over-in-my-driveway-v14606532/assessing-culvert-drainage-problems-c3953998 2026-10-24T04:52:53.382Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xJbVKO1UXpE/hqdefault.jpg Assessing Culvert & Drainage Problems — UPS truck almost flipped over in my DRIVEWAY! The presenter guides the viewer along the driveway, pointing out the existing culvert pipe which was installed years ago to address an initial narrow entry point. He notes that while that section improved access, persistent water flow across the driveway and into the ditch further down still causes problems. The need for an additional 4-foot section of culvert pipe to widen the current entry is identified, ensuring that delivery vehicles can turn in without falling into the ditch. This extension will improve safety and convenience. He reiterates the general advice that when purchasing property, it's crucial to consider water management to prevent erosion and retain water on your land. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xJbVKO1UXpE 95 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/ups-truck-almost-flipped-over-in-my-driveway-v14606532/preparing-the-backhoe-for-operation-c3953999 2026-10-24T04:52:53.382Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xJbVKO1UXpE/hqdefault.jpg Preparing the Backhoe for Operation — UPS truck almost flipped over in my DRIVEWAY! Before operating the backhoe, the presenter emphasizes a critical safety rule: always be seated in the operator's seat before starting the machine. He then starts the hydrostatic tractor, which uses foot pedals for forward and reverse movement. The next task is to prepare the backhoe attachment for digging. This involves accessing a small storage toolbox located behind the seat, retrieving two pins, and removing the locking pins that secure the backhoe in its travel position. Once the pins are removed, the backhoe is no longer rigid and can move freely with the hydraulic controls. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xJbVKO1UXpE 103 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/ups-truck-almost-flipped-over-in-my-driveway-v14606532/positioning-the-tractor-and-engaging-the-backhoe-c3954000 2026-10-24T04:52:53.382Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xJbVKO1UXpE/hqdefault.jpg Positioning the Tractor and Engaging the Backhoe — UPS truck almost flipped over in my DRIVEWAY!

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including ear protection (like 3M Worktunes) and safety gloves, before starting the mill. Position a red oak log onto the sawmill's deck. In this instance, a LogOX 4-in-1 Forestry Multi-Tool is used to roll and position a heavy log. Take measurements of the log to plan your cuts. The goal is to maximize usable lumber and minimize waste. For this log, the strategy is to mill it into a square 'cant' first, then cut 1-inch thick pieces for 'dunnage' (stickers used for stacking lumber to air dry) and finally, 2-inch thick slabs for tabletops or bar tops. https://www.youtube.com/embed/eDZ3CNbOdWM 193 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/do-you-want-a-sawmill-v14606536/first-cuts-with-dull-blade-c3952017 2026-10-24T04:48:52.787Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/eDZ3CNbOdWM/hqdefault.jpg First Cuts with Dull Blade — Do you want a Sawmill? Mill the first slab from the log using the dull blade. Observe the cut for ripple marks, which indicate a dull blade. A dull blade also causes the saw to 'bog down' and make a distinct 'singing' noise. To prepare for a clean second cut, use a Toro 60-volt Flex Force Chainsaw to cut off any protruding 'knobs' or irregularities on the log. This creates a cleaner edge for subsequent cuts and prevents the sawmill blade from encountering obstacles. Then, proceed to make the second cut with the dull blade to remove another slab. https://www.youtube.com/embed/eDZ3CNbOdWM 166 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/do-you-want-a-sawmill-v14606536/remove-dull-blade-c3952019 2026-10-24T04:48:52.787Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/eDZ3CNbOdWM/hqdefault.jpg Remove Dull Blade — Do you want a Sawmill? To change the blade, first lower the blade tension to zero using the tensioning handle. Next, remove the side covers from both sides of the blade housing. These covers are typically secured with pins that can be pulled out to release them. Once the covers are off, lower the protective flap on the saw head to expose the blade. Carefully disengage the dull blade from the pulleys and guides. Note the direction the blade teeth are pointing (downwards for cutting) to ensure the new blade is installed correctly.

He explains that instead of baling hay from his own land, which would deplete soil nutrients, he buys hay and brings it to the farm. He discusses the financial and ecological reasons behind this decision, highlighting the vicious cycle of spreading expensive fertilizers and lime after removing hay, which ultimately kills soil microbiology. He reveals that his newly acquired land, previously used for tobacco, had extremely low biological material (0.03%), consisting mostly of sand, silt, and clay. The core idea is to bring carbon and organic matter back to the land to improve soil health, using ruminant animals like cows and goats to aid in this process. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XK6p_bhqQ-M 442 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farms-that-save-money-and-build-soil-a-new-way-of-thinking-starts-here-v14606554/distribute-hay-bales-with-atv-and-bale-roller-c3954137 2026-10-24T04:53:05.769Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XK6p_bhqQ-M/hqdefault.jpg Distribute Hay Bales with ATV and Bale Roller — Farms that Save money and build soil a new way of th The presenter demonstrates the distribution of hay bales onto the pasture. He uses an ATV (all-terrain vehicle) pulling a specialized bale roller, a Greg Judy Bale Unroller. As the ATV drives, the bale roller unrolls the hay, spreading it in a linear fashion across the field. This method ensures an even distribution of hay, which serves multiple purposes: feeding the cattle, depositing a natural seed bank, and returning carbonaceous material and manure to the soil. The video emphasizes choosing high spots for dropping the bales and letting gravity assist in the unrolling process down slopes. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XK6p_bhqQ-M 195 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farms-that-save-money-and-build-soil-a-new-way-of-thinking-starts-here-v14606554/unload-hay-bales-with-compact-tractor-c3954138 2026-10-24T04:53:05.769Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XK6p_bhqQ-M/hqdefault.jpg Unload Hay Bales with Compact Tractor — Farms that Save money and build soil a new way of thinking s The presenter introduces his compact tractor, a TYM TX254, which is a 24.8 horsepower (or 25 horsepower) YANMAR-powered machine. He explains the decision to use this smaller tractor, highlighting its low ground pressure and ability to operate on wet ground without causing significant rutting or soil damage. He demonstrates using the tractor's front loader equipped with bale spears to carefully pick up hay bales from a trailer and place them onto the ground, ready for distribution by the ATV and bale roller in another area. This method allows for efficient handling of large quantities of hay while minimizing impact on the pasture's soil structure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XK6p_bhqQ-M 203 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farms-that-save-money-and-build-soil-a-new-way-of-thinking-starts-here-v14606554/observe-soil-building-and-reinforce-benefits-c3954139 2026-10-24T04:53:05.769Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XK6p_bhqQ-M/hqdefault.jpg Observe Soil Building and Reinforce Benefits — Farms that Save money and build soil a new way of thi The video concludes by reiterating the benefits of the chosen regenerative farming strategy. By distributing hay and allowing cattle to trample uneaten portions and deposit manure, the farm actively builds topsoil, introduces new grass seeds (seed bank), and incorporates organic carbon back into the land. This approach eliminates the need for expensive chemical fertilizers, lime, and extensive hay-making equipment, which previously led to high maintenance costs and soil degradation. The presenter highlights how this strategy transforms depleted land into lush pastures over time, benefiting both the environment and the farm's financial sustainability. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XK6p_bhqQ-M 70 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/finally-got-some-work-done-todaybut-im-paying-for-it-v14606555 2026-10-24T04:50:05.680Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/32bk-g0xraI/hqdefault.jpg Finally got some work done today...but I'm paying for it!

Place four chickens, one by one, into the 'hugging cones' (killing cones). Ensure the bird's head is pointing downwards through the opening at the bottom of the cone. This position provides a feeling of euphoria to the bird and makes the dispatch process quick and humane. Using a sharp knife, make a single, clean cut across the bird's neck to sever the jugular vein and carotid artery, allowing for rapid blood drainage. The blood will drain into a bucket placed underneath. https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0xtJXvuhTI 30 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-butcher-chicken-at-homethe-easy-way-v14606561/scalding-chickens-c3951914 2026-10-24T04:48:46.361Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0xtJXvuhTI/hqdefault.jpg Scalding Chickens — How to butcher chicken at home..the easy way! After dispatch, immediately transfer two chickens into the scalding pot, which is maintained at a temperature between 145-150°F (63-65°C). Use a fire poker or similar tool to fully submerge and agitate the birds in the hot water for approximately 45 seconds. The goal is to loosen the feathers without cooking the skin. To check if feathers are loose enough, pull on a toe; if the skin starts to come off, it's ready. Wear rubber gloves to protect your hands from the hot water. https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0xtJXvuhTI 49 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-butcher-chicken-at-homethe-easy-way-v14606561/plucking-chickens-c3951917 2026-10-24T04:48:46.361Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0xtJXvuhTI/hqdefault.jpg Plucking Chickens — How to butcher chicken at home..the easy way! Immediately after scalding, transfer the chickens to the feather plucker. Activate the plucker, which uses rubber fingers to rapidly remove feathers. While the plucker is running, continuously rinse the chickens and the plucker interior with cold water from a hose. This helps to wash away feathers and keep the plucker clean. The feathers will be ejected from the plucker into a collection tote placed nearby. Continue until the chickens are thoroughly de-feathered. https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0xtJXvuhTI 60 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-butcher-chicken-at-homethe-easy-way-v14606561/evisceration-and-organ-removal-c3951918 2026-10-24T04:48:46.361Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0xtJXvuhTI/hqdefault.jpg Evisceration and Organ Removal — How to butcher chicken at home..the easy way! After plucking, move the chickens to the evisceration station (stainless steel table). First, use a sharp knife or poultry shears (e.g., Gerber shears) to remove the feet at the joint and the wing tips. These parts can be saved for chicken stock. Next, locate the crop, a small pouch at the base of the neck. Pinch a small piece of skin near the crop and make an upward and outward cut. Reach in and pull out the crop. Then, make another upward and outward cut around the vent area, carefully avoiding internal organs. Reach inside the cavity with your hand and gently pull out all internal organs, including the intestines, heart, liver, gizzard, and gallbladder. Carefully separate the gallbladder from the liver by hand, ensuring it does not rupture, as its contents can taint the meat. Discard the gallbladder and intestines. Collect the heart, liver, and gizzard in separate pans. https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0xtJXvuhTI 192 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-butcher-chicken-at-homethe-easy-way-v14606561/threestage-chilling-c3951921 2026-10-24T04:48:46.361Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0xtJXvuhTI/hqdefault.jpg Three-Stage Chilling — How to butcher chicken at home..the easy way! After evisceration, place the chicken into the first bay of the three-bay sink, which contains cold water at approximately 50°F (10°C). Then move it to the second bay with cooler water at about 45°F (7°C). Finally, transfer the chicken to the third bay, which is filled with ice and water, bringing the temperature down to approximately 35°F (1.7°C). This multi-stage chilling process quickly lowers the internal temperature of the bird to below 40°F (4°C), which is crucial for food safety and preventing bacterial growth before freezing. This also prevents the chicken from thawing other frozen items when placed in the freezer. https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0xtJXvuhTI 70 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-butcher-chicken-at-homethe-easy-way-v14606561/bagging-and-shrinkwrapping-c3951924 2026-10-24T04:48:46.361Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0xtJXvuhTI/hqdefault.jpg Bagging and Shrink-Wrapping — How to butcher chicken at home..the easy way! Take a chilled chicken and place it, neck-down, into an extra-large shrink wrap bag. The bag should be slightly larger than the chicken. Submerge the bagged chicken into a pot of very hot water, approximately 200-210°F (93-99°C), which is just below boiling. Use a wooden spoon or similar tool to fully submerge the bag and help 'burp' out all the air. Once most of the air is removed, twist the open end of the bag tightly to create a vacuum seal around the chicken. Secure the twisted end with a hog ring using hog ring pliers. This process removes air, prevents freezer burn, and extends the shelf life of the chicken in the freezer. https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0xtJXvuhTI 220 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-butcher-chicken-at-homethe-easy-way-v14606561/final-storage-and-conclusion-c3951929 2026-10-24T04:48:46.361Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/A0xtJXvuhTI/hqdefault.jpg Final Storage and Conclusion — How to butcher chicken at home..the easy way!

The creator explains that he and his stepdad are using two different trucks (a 1-ton Ford and a 3/4-ton Dodge Ram, nicknamed 'Unicorn Dodge') to haul their trailers (a 28-foot deck-over trailer and a 25-foot flatbed trailer). The purpose of the milling is to acquire culvert piping and other materials for creek crossings and pond build projects, which requires these custom stake beds. The creator points out the current lack of boards in the cleat pockets of the trailers, indicating the need for the custom lumber. He states that one oak log should be sufficient to make all the necessary stakes. The video then transitions into an introductory sequence showing the Wood-Mizer sawmill in operation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GWvSI2Rbe_Y 93 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/big-white-oak-hits-the-sawmillprecision-cuts-for-the-first-time-today-v14606569/understanding-the-sawmill-and-equipment-c3953611 2026-10-24T04:52:25.993Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GWvSI2Rbe_Y/hqdefault.jpg Understanding the Sawmill and Equipment — BIG White Oak hits the Sawmill...precision cuts for the fi The creator introduces the tools being used: a Wood-Mizer LT40 sawmill and a TYM T254 tractor. He briefly describes the TYM tractor as a 25-horsepower diesel engine model, noting its use with pallet forks for offloading boards. He then gives a detailed overview of the Wood-Mizer LT40 Wide Hydraulic Sawmill, highlighting its main components: the log deck (where logs sit), loading arms (to lift logs onto the mill), the debarker (to remove bark before the saw blade, protecting the blade from dirt and hard bark), the 38-horsepower Kohler Command Pro fuel-injected engine, and the control panel. The control panel features switches for the debarker, saw blade, forward/backward movement of the sawhead, up/down movement, and the water lubricating system. The water system (filled with windshield washer fluid for freeze protection) lubricates the blade during cutting to prevent pitch buildup and enhance performance. He also explains that the hydraulic system controls log turning, movement along the bed, and raising/lowering the log ends for optimal cuts. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GWvSI2Rbe_Y 324 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/big-white-oak-hits-the-sawmillprecision-cuts-for-the-first-time-today-v14606569/edging-boards-for-straight-edges-c3953612 2026-10-24T04:52:25.993Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GWvSI2Rbe_Y/hqdefault.jpg Edging Boards for Straight Edges — BIG White Oak hits the Sawmill...precision cuts for the first tim Start the Kohler Command Pro engine of the Wood-Mizer sawmill. Identify the existing boards on the mill, noting that they are 'live edge' boards with bark on one side and a straight edge on the other. The goal is to 'edge' these boards, meaning to cut off the barky edges to create clean, straight lumber. Set the sawmill to cut 1-inch thick slices. Carefully position the boards against the log deck dogs, ensuring they are stable. Engage the saw blade and slowly feed the sawhead through the board, trimming off the bark edge. Repeat this process for all boards, flipping them as needed to trim both bark edges. Ensure to handle the boards carefully as thinner, unedged boards are less stable. These boards are red oak and are being milled to a thickness of 5/4 inches (1.25 inches) and a width of 10 inches. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GWvSI2Rbe_Y 229 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/big-white-oak-hits-the-sawmillprecision-cuts-for-the-first-time-today-v14606569/creating-and-using-stickers-for-drying-c3953613 2026-10-24T04:52:25.993Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GWvSI2Rbe_Y/hqdefault.jpg Creating and Using Stickers for Drying — BIG White Oak hits the Sawmill...precision cuts for the fir After edging the boards, the creator demonstrates the use of 'stickers.' These are small, square pieces of wood (1x1 inch) that are placed between layers of lumber when stacking for air drying. The purpose of stickers is to allow air to circulate evenly around each board, preventing moisture buildup and promoting consistent drying. It's important to use stickers made from the same species of wood as the lumber being dried to prevent 'sticker stain,' which can occur if different wood types react chemically during drying. He places a red oak sticker under a board to show how they are used. He mentions that the current red oak board with bark will be trimmed further to remove remaining bark and create a uniform piece. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GWvSI2Rbe_Y 35 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/big-white-oak-hits-the-sawmillprecision-cuts-for-the-first-time-today-v14606569/milling-heartwood-and-preparing-a-new-log-c3953617 2026-10-24T04:52:25.993Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GWvSI2Rbe_Y/hqdefault.jpg Milling Heartwood and Preparing a New Log — BIG White Oak hits the Sawmill...precision cuts for the The creator explains that the remaining large piece of wood on the mill is the 'heartwood' of the oak log. Heartwood contains a lot of grain, making it prone to twisting and turning as it dries. Therefore, it's not ideal for general lumber but is perfect for applications like 4x4 posts or 'dunnage' (wood used for packing or support). He measures the heartwood, noting it's a little over 3 inches thick. His dad needs 2.5 x 1.5 inch lumber for carts, so the plan is to cut this heartwood down to 2.5 inches thick. To achieve the correct thickness, he will account for the blade's 1/8-inch kerf during the cuts. Before milling, he uses a LogOX (a 4-in-1 forestry multi-tool) to move a larger white oak log onto the mill, emphasizing safety precautions like wearing steel-toe boots when working with heavy logs. He then positions the white oak log on the mill, using the hydraulic system and a manual cant hook to rotate and align it for the initial cut. This involves shaving off the first 'slab' (the barky outer piece, used for firewood or wood chips). He then rotates the log again to begin creating a 'cant' (a squared-off log). https://www.youtube.com/embed/GWvSI2Rbe_Y 363 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/big-white-oak-hits-the-sawmillprecision-cuts-for-the-first-time-today-v14606569/finishing-cuts-and-fit-testing-c3953618 2026-10-24T04:52:25.993Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GWvSI2Rbe_Y/hqdefault.jpg Finishing Cuts and Fit Testing — BIG White Oak hits the Sawmill...precision cuts for the first time After milling the first side of the white oak log, the creator identifies the resulting 'slab' (the first cut, which includes bark) and explains it can be used for firewood or wood chips. He then rotates the log to cut another slab, effectively squaring off the log into a 'cant.' He then proceeds to mill several 1.5-inch thick boards from the cant. He measures one of the cut boards, confirming it's 1.5 inches thick. He notes that these boards will be ripped down to 3.5 inches wide later to fit the trailer cleats. He highlights the need to compensate for the 1/8-inch thickness (kerf) of the saw blade during precision cuts. He emphasizes that the current batch of wood is 'wormy' with powder post beetles, making it only suitable for dunnage and not high-quality projects. He uses a Toro electric chainsaw to cut the 1.5-inch boards in half lengthwise to create two 3.5-inch wide boards. He then tests one of these finished boards in a trailer cleat, finding it to be a bit too tight. He mentions that he will use a knife (or eventually a hand planer) to shave down the edges for a perfect fit, due to slight imperfections in the trailer's square holes. This marks the successful completion of the precision milling task for the trailer stake beds. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GWvSI2Rbe_Y 191 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tiny-stihl-gta-26first-look-at-this-new-saw-gimmick-or-awesome-you-v14606571 2026-10-24T05:53:03.242Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3vUEPrwHpK4/hqdefault.jpg TINY STIHL GTA 26..First look at this new saw, gimmick or awesome?

He emphasizes using heavy-duty poly-pipe (100 PSI or 160 PSI rated, not irrigation pipe) for durability and adequate pressure handling. He also prepares the poly-pipe by cutting off any crimped ends and explains the process of joining multiple sections using barbed couplings. The cold weather makes the poly-pipe stiff, so laying it out in the sun to warm up is recommended to make it more pliable for easier installation. He mentions using zip ties and a specialized zip tie tool for secure connections, which are simpler to remove than hose clamps for temporary setups. https://www.youtube.com/embed/sv3TjKdDhW8 146 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/nonstop-water-pumping-system-no-powercomplete-simple-setup-explained-v14606579/understanding-ram-pump-operation-c3952868 2026-10-24T04:50:17.962Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sv3TjKdDhW8/hqdefault.jpg Understanding Ram Pump Operation — Nonstop water pumping system no power...complete simple setup exp The creator explains the fundamental principle of a ram pump. Water flows down a 'drive pipe' from a higher elevation, building momentum. This momentum is used to force a small portion of the water uphill to a much higher elevation through a 'delivery pipe'. The system uses two main valves: a 'waste valve' (or impulse valve) that rapidly opens and closes to create pressure surges, and a 'check valve' that allows water to enter an air chamber and then the delivery pipe, preventing backflow. For every foot of vertical drop in the drive pipe, the ram pump can lift water approximately 7 feet uphill. The current setup has a 6-7 foot drop, allowing it to pump water over 40 feet uphill. https://www.youtube.com/embed/sv3TjKdDhW8 149 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/nonstop-water-pumping-system-no-powercomplete-simple-setup-explained-v14606579/assembling-the-pond-intake-filter-c3952869 2026-10-24T04:50:17.962Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sv3TjKdDhW8/hqdefault.jpg Assembling the Pond Intake Filter — Nonstop water pumping system no power...complete simple setup ex A simple intake filter is constructed to prevent debris from entering the ram pump system. This involves cutting a section of 4-inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe to the desired length (approximately 16 inches). A reducer is attached to one end of the PVC pipe, stepping down from 4 inches to 2 inches, and then another reducer steps down from 2 inches to 1 inch. The 1-inch opening will connect to the poly-pipe. A piece of window screen is wrapped around the larger 4-inch PVC pipe and secured with zip ties, folding the screen to seal the ends. This creates a coarse filter to protect the pump from larger debris. https://www.youtube.com/embed/sv3TjKdDhW8 251 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/nonstop-water-pumping-system-no-powercomplete-simple-setup-explained-v14606579/constructing-the-pond-intake-float-and-anchor-system-c3952873 2026-10-24T04:50:17.962Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sv3TjKdDhW8/hqdefault.jpg Constructing the Pond Intake Float and Anchor System — Nonstop water pumping system no power...compl To ensure the filter intake remains at an optimal depth (about 16 inches below the surface, where the cleanest water is), a float system and an anchor are required. The float system is created by stringing several red fishing floats onto a piece of paracord. The anchor system uses a heavy chain (or any suitable heavy object like an old pump housing) tied to the other end of the paracord. The length of the paracord is adjusted so that the floats position the filter at the desired depth, and the heavy chain keeps the entire intake system securely in place on the pond bed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/sv3TjKdDhW8 215 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/nonstop-water-pumping-system-no-powercomplete-simple-setup-explained-v14606579/installing-the-ram-pump-and-initiating-flow-c3952874 2026-10-24T04:50:17.962Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sv3TjKdDhW8/hqdefault.jpg Installing the Ram Pump and Initiating Flow — Nonstop water pumping system no power...complete simpl Before the ram pump can operate automatically, it needs to be 'primed' by siphoning water through the drive pipe. This involves manually drawing water through the pipe until it flows out the end, creating a continuous column of water. Once the siphon is established, the water will flow, causing the waste valve to begin cycling (opening and closing), and forcing water up the delivery pipe. The video shows the initial trial runs, where a missing O-ring in the system prevents consistent operation, highlighting the importance of proper sealing. After replacing the O-ring, the ram pump successfully cycles, creating a steady flow of water uphill. https://www.youtube.com/embed/sv3TjKdDhW8 182 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/nonstop-water-pumping-system-no-powercomplete-simple-setup-explained-v14606579/connecting-automatic-float-valve-to-stock-tank-c3952875 2026-10-24T04:50:17.962Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sv3TjKdDhW8/hqdefault.jpg Connecting Automatic Float Valve to Stock Tank — Nonstop water pumping system no power...complete si The poly-pipe from the ram pump is connected to an automatic float valve (Trough-O-Matic brand) installed in a galvanized metal stock tank. The float valve is attached to the rim of the tank and regulates the water level, automatically refilling as water is consumed by livestock. A T-fitting is used to allow the main water line to continue further down the fence line to additional stock tanks, ensuring continuous water supply across multiple grazing areas. The slow but steady flow from the ram pump (approximately 100 gallons in 3-4 hours) is sufficient to keep multiple tanks full over time. This passive system eliminates the need for manual refilling or electrical pumps. https://www.youtube.com/embed/sv3TjKdDhW8 107 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/nonstop-water-pumping-system-no-powercomplete-simple-setup-explained-v14606579/final-setup-and-system-benefits-c3952877 2026-10-24T04:50:17.962Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sv3TjKdDhW8/hqdefault.jpg Final Setup and System Benefits — Nonstop water pumping system no power...complete simple setup expl The newly installed ram pump system is now fully operational, passively supplying water to the stock tanks. The slow but continuous flow (approx. 100 gallons every 3-4 hours) ensures that the tanks remain full, even with multiple tanks spread across the property.

The video starts with an introduction to rendering pork fat into lard. The presenter explains that he received leaf fat from a neighbor who butchered hogs. Leaf fat is the fat from inside the pig's rib cage, often discarded, but ideal for making high-quality, odorless lard. He emphasizes that this fat is different from the fat found on bacon or ham. The goal is to cut the large chunks of fat into small cubes, about 2 inches by 2 inches, using a large butcher knife or cooking knife, and a smaller paring knife for finer trimming. He also shows empty canning jars and mentions the need for a pan, ideally a large one like the metal pan he has, for temporary storage of the cut fat. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Hfv8oegnrgU 179 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-make-lardsimple-easy-and-fun-v14606583/dice-the-pork-fat-into-cubes-c3952623 2026-10-24T04:49:57.447Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Hfv8oegnrgU/hqdefault.jpg Dice the Pork Fat into Cubes — How to make Lard..simple, easy and fun! To make the fat easier to cut, refrigerate it to harden it slightly. Using a large butcher knife and a smaller paring knife, begin cutting the large pieces of leaf fat into 2-inch by 2-inch cubes. As you cut, inspect each piece for any small specs, such as hog hair or other impurities, and trim them off. Place any discarded pieces (scraps) into a separate 'scrap bowl'. The goal is to render only pure white fat for the highest quality lard. He recommends using sharp knives to prevent accidents and make the cutting process more efficient. Continue cutting until all the fat is diced. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Hfv8oegnrgU 390 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-make-lardsimple-easy-and-fun-v14606583/set-up-for-rendering-and-start-cooking-c3952628 2026-10-24T04:49:57.447Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Hfv8oegnrgU/hqdefault.jpg Set Up for Rendering and Start Cooking — How to make Lard..simple, easy and fun! Once the fat is diced, transfer it to a large, heavy-bottomed pot. The presenter demonstrates using a Toastmaster hot plate placed on a stable Titan shop cart for outdoor cooking. He adds about 1/2 cup of water to the bottom of the pot before adding the fat to prevent initial sticking. The fat should not fill the pot completely, as it will be stirred and more may be added as it renders down. The heat is started on low and will gradually be increased to a boil. He recommends performing this step outdoors due to the strong cooking odor and the flammable nature of hot fat. A flat-faced spatula or metal spoon will be needed for stirring. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Hfv8oegnrgU 120 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-make-lardsimple-easy-and-fun-v14606583/continue-rendering-and-add-more-fat-if-needed-c3952629 2026-10-24T04:49:57.447Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Hfv8oegnrgU/hqdefault.jpg Continue Rendering and Add More Fat (if needed) — How to make Lard..simple, easy and fun! Once the initial batch of fat has rendered down by about half, more diced fat can be added to the pot. Continue stirring the fat regularly with a flat-faced spatula or wooden spoon to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking to the bottom. The goal is to cook until all the fat has liquefied and the remaining solid pieces (cracklings) are golden brown and crispy. This process takes several hours (approximately 6 hours for 30 lbs of fat). The presenter demonstrates adding more fat as the volume reduces, using a ladle to scoop fat from the large pan into the hot pot. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Hfv8oegnrgU 152 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-make-lardsimple-easy-and-fun-v14606583/strain-and-jar-the-lard-collect-cracklings-c3952630 2026-10-24T04:49:57.447Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Hfv8oegnrgU/hqdefault.jpg Strain and Jar the Lard, Collect Cracklings — How to make Lard..simple, easy and fun! After several hours of cooking (around 6 hours for 30 lbs of fat), the fat should be fully rendered into liquid lard, and the solid cracklings will be golden brown and crispy. Carefully ladle the hot liquid lard through a fine-mesh strainer and a canning funnel into clean canning jars. The presenter cautions against overfilling the jars and pouring too quickly to prevent the glass from breaking due to thermal shock. He demonstrates squeezing the cracklings in the strainer with the ladle to extract more lard. Once filled, immediately place the lids on the jars and tighten them, using a rag or glove to protect your hands from the hot glass. The jars will self-seal as they cool. The remaining cracklings are transferred to a separate pot and later stored in a freezer bag. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Hfv8oegnrgU no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-to-look-for-buying-a-utv-or-atvadvice-to-save-money-and-big-v14606584 2026-10-24T04:52:17.155Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UkaLe8N_p2c/hqdefault.jpg What to look for buying a UTV or ATV...advice to SAVE MONEY and BIG PROBLEMS!

Check for signs of significant wear and tear, such as scratches on the plastic fairings. Notice if any small plastic pieces are popped off, as this could indicate rough use. Observe any aftermarket modifications like Kolpin racks. While these can be beneficial, their presence might suggest the ATV has been used for heavy-duty tasks like farming. Pay attention to the overall cleanliness; a heavily muddied or dirty machine can hide underlying issues and often signals a lack of proper maintenance by the previous owner. Identify any rusted areas on the frame or any bent components that could indicate a collision or misuse. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UkaLe8N_p2c 82 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-to-look-for-buying-a-utv-or-atvadvice-to-save-money-and-big-v14606584/mechanical-usage-indicators-c3953420 2026-10-24T04:52:17.155Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UkaLe8N_p2c/hqdefault.jpg Mechanical & Usage Indicators — What to look for buying a UTV or ATV...advice to SAVE MONEY and BIG Assess the machine's usage by comparing the engine hours to the mileage. High hours with low miles suggest a workhorse (e.g., farming), while low hours with high miles suggest faster trail riding. Pay close attention to the rubber CV boots on all axles. Feel around them for any grease or tears. Grease indicates a compromised boot, allowing dirt and grit to enter, which will eventually cause bearing failure. Inspect the plastic body panels and handlebars for excessive scrapes or bends, which can signal rollovers or hard impacts. Check the radiator for any visible bends or misalignment; a bent radiator is a strong indicator the ATV has been rolled. Examine the front bumper for signs of impact, such as bent push bars or damaged paint, suggesting the machine was used to push objects. Also, look underneath the ATV for damage to the frame, swing arms, or any other structural components. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UkaLe8N_p2c 545 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-to-look-for-buying-a-utv-or-atvadvice-to-save-money-and-big-v14606584/underseat-and-electrical-system-check-c3953421 2026-10-24T04:52:17.155Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UkaLe8N_p2c/hqdefault.jpg Under-Seat and Electrical System Check — What to look for buying a UTV or ATV...advice to SAVE MONEY Lift the seat to inspect the components underneath. Check the battery's date (often indicated with a '20' for 2020, etc.). A newer battery on an older machine might indicate previous electrical problems. Look for non-factory electrical tape or shoddy wiring, especially around harnesses, which could indicate repairs or aftermarket installations. Open the fuse box and inspect for any signs of mud, corrosion, or water damage, which are clear indicators the ATV has been submerged. Locate and inspect the ATV's tool kit, ensuring it's complete and includes the shift lever (a small wrench in Honda models) for emergency manual shifting. Inspect the exhaust pipes for rust, dents, or signs of overheating. Check the shift solenoid for any loose connections or damage, as this is a known failure point for electronic shift models. Finally, inspect the internal areas for any mildew or signs of prolonged moisture, indicating outdoor storage or water exposure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UkaLe8N_p2c 291 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-to-look-for-buying-a-utv-or-atvadvice-to-save-money-and-big-v14606584/operational-checks-and-final-assessment-c3953424 2026-10-24T04:52:17.155Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UkaLe8N_p2c/hqdefault.jpg Operational Checks and Final Assessment — What to look for buying a UTV or ATV...advice to SAVE MONE With the key in the ignition, listen for the fuel pump to hum, indicating it's priming. Observe the digital display for any engine or warning lights. Start the engine, paying close attention to the starter sound. A weak or struggling starter might indicate a failing battery or starter motor. For Honda electronic shift models, if the machine is in gear, learn the trick to start it: hold the right brake lever while pressing the start button. Inspect the radiator fins for any bends or debris, ensuring proper airflow for cooling. Remove any protective plastic covers over the radiator to check for hidden mud or damage. Check the power outlets (like a cigarette lighter port) for debris or corrosion, which could indicate neglect or water exposure. Turn the handlebars from side to side to check for tightness and smooth operation. Ideally, bring a floor jack to lift each wheel individually and check for excessive play by shaking them side-to-side and top-to-bottom, which can reveal worn bearings or suspension components. Finally, check the fender liners for any drilled holes, which might suggest previous aftermarket lighting or snorkel installations that have since been removed, potentially leaving areas vulnerable to water or debris. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UkaLe8N_p2c 275 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/is-it-worth-saving-rare-and-rusty-69-chevy-c10no-start-in-15-years-v14606585 2026-10-24T04:50:12.818Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6CbeNnOeP-g/hqdefault.jpg Is it worth saving??

Once the oven is preheated, carefully place all the cast iron cookware (skillets and pots) inside. It's crucial to arrange the items so they are not stacked on top of each other, allowing for even heat distribution during the self-cleaning cycle. The presenter demonstrates using heat-resistant gloves to handle the already slightly warmed pans. For smaller pans, place them towards the back of the oven, and bigger pans towards the front, which will make them easier to retrieve later. https://www.youtube.com/embed/baieAQvwuDU 190 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cast-iron-cookware-seasoning-and-v14606587/run-oven-selfcleaning-cycle-c3954181 2026-10-24T04:53:06.349Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/baieAQvwuDU/hqdefault.jpg Run Oven Self-Cleaning Cycle — Everything you need to know about CAST IRON cookware, seasoning and r With the cast iron cookware arranged inside the oven, activate the oven's self-cleaning cycle. The presenter recommends turning on the overhead fan or microwave vent to mitigate the strong, burnt odor that will be emitted as the old seasoning and rust are incinerated. Self-cleaning ovens typically reach temperatures above 800°F (427°C). If you do not have a self-cleaning oven, you can set a regular oven to its highest temperature (e.g., 500-550°F / 260-288°C) and leave the cookware inside for 4 to 6 hours. This process will turn all accumulated residue into a white ash. https://www.youtube.com/embed/baieAQvwuDU 120 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cast-iron-cookware-seasoning-and-v14606587/remove-ash-and-prepare-for-seasoning-c3954182 2026-10-24T04:53:06.349Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/baieAQvwuDU/hqdefault.jpg Remove Ash and Prepare for Seasoning — Everything you need to know about CAST IRON cookware, seasoni Once the oven has completed its self-cleaning cycle and cooled down (often requires waiting overnight), carefully remove the cast iron pieces. You'll observe that the high heat has transformed all the old seasoning and rust into a white, powdery ash. Take the cookware outside to prevent making a mess indoors. Use a wire brush, or a brush attachment on a drill for faster results, to vigorously scrub off all the ash and any remaining loose material. Alternatively, a kitchen scouring sponge can be used for this step if other brushes aren't available. Ensure all surfaces, inside and out, are free of ash and smooth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/baieAQvwuDU 150 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cast-iron-cookware-seasoning-and-v14606587/apply-first-oil-coat-and-rebake-c3954186 2026-10-24T04:53:06.349Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/baieAQvwuDU/hqdefault.jpg Apply First Oil Coat and Re-Bake — Everything you need to know about CAST IRON cookware, seasoning a Select your preferred seasoning oil. The presenter recommends walnut oil (La Tourangelle brand) for its excellent residue and notes it's cost-effective. Other suitable options include coconut oil (Organic Great Value brand shown), Crisco, flaxseed oil, or sunflower oil. Use a paper towel to apply a generous amount (approximately a quarter-sized dollop) of oil to the cast iron. Thoroughly rub the oil into all surfaces of the pan: the interior, the rim, the exterior, and the handle. Ensure no part is left un-oiled. During this initial oiling, some rust may still transfer to the paper towel; this is normal. Once completely oiled, place the pan back into an oven preheated to 285°F (140°C) for 1.5 to 2 hours. This baking step allows the oil to polymerize and bond with the iron, forming the first layer of seasoning. After the baking, remove the pan and let it cool. Repeat this oiling and baking process several times to build up a robust seasoning layer. https://www.youtube.com/embed/baieAQvwuDU 270 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/everything-you-need-to-know-about-cast-iron-cookware-seasoning-and-v14606587/daily-maintenance-and-storage-c3954187 2026-10-24T04:53:06.349Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/baieAQvwuDU/hqdefault.jpg Daily Maintenance and Storage — Everything you need to know about CAST IRON cookware, seasoning and After each use, clean your cast iron cookware with warm water and a stiff brush (such as the Lodge brand cast iron cleaner shown) – never use soap, as it can strip away the seasoning. After cleaning, dry the pan thoroughly and apply a small, dime-sized dollop of oil, rubbing it into all surfaces with a paper towel. The pan should have a slight sheen but not be greasy. Once oiled, store the pan inside your oven. This storage method, combined with the residual heat from subsequent oven use, continually reinforces the seasoning. By consistently cooking with and properly maintaining your cast iron, it will become fully seasoned within a couple of weeks, developing a naturally non-stick surface ideal for cooking items like scrambled eggs or cornbread. https://www.youtube.com/embed/baieAQvwuDU 185 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/not-again-mechanic-work-never-stops-on-the-farm-v14606588 2026-10-24T04:49:00.784Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yM12E5ic8_8/hqdefault.jpg NOT AGAIN!!

Attach the carabiners of the tow straps to the rear hitch of your ATV (such as a Honda Foreman 500) and loop the other ends onto the designated tow points of the mineral feeder. Drive the ATV slowly and carefully to transport the feeder to its desired location in the pasture. It's crucial to place the feeder at least 50-100 feet (preferably 200 feet or more) away from any water source. This prevents cattle from repeatedly traveling between the mineral block and water, which can lead to over-consumption of minerals, contamination of water sources, and excessive wear on the ground around both areas. https://www.youtube.com/embed/94qQdOAqKOo 75 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-a-super-duty-but-what-the-heck-does-it-do-v14606589/final-review-of-feeder-benefits-c3952446 2026-10-24T04:49:39.417Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/94qQdOAqKOo/hqdefault.jpg Final Review of Feeder Benefits — It's a SUPER DUTY! But what the heck does it do? With the feeder successfully placed, observe its functionality. The rotating design allows cattle to access minerals from various angles, reducing the concentration of activity in one spot. This, coupled with the overhang, helps protect the mineral blocks from the elements. The presenter emphasizes the benefits of using such a feeder over simply placing salt blocks on the ground, illustrating with an example of a salt block's damaging effect on grass and soil from a previous unmanaged placement, causing soil contamination and wear for years. The mobile feeder system prevents this by keeping the mineral off the ground and allowing for periodic relocation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/94qQdOAqKOo 96 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-dangers-of-farming-cow-jumps-trailer-could-have-caused-serious-v14606591 2026-10-24T04:52:26.367Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YvfwTFpS0Vc/hqdefault.jpg The DANGERS of FARMING!

Full wate Josh, the Stoney Ridge Farmer, and Seth Johnson from Land to House YouTube channel introduce the project: installing a new ram pump system. Seth explains the working principle of a ram pump: water flows down a drive pipe from a source (like a pond), builds pressure, and closes a check valve. This creates a pressure wave that forces a portion of the water uphill through a delivery pipe. The system is passive, requiring no electricity, and can achieve approximately 7 feet of lift for every 1 foot of vertical drop in the drive pipe. The purpose is to keep cows out of the pond and conserve well water. They clarify that while the design is ancient, modern versions use PVC pipe.

This priming process can take anywhere from 30 seconds to several minutes, depending on the length and height of the delivery pipe. https://www.youtube.com/embed/saWyxpmbUGg 88 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/using-gravity-to-pump-water-nonstop-without-power-full-water-system-v14606594/install-delivery-pipe-and-water-tank-c3952539 2026-10-24T04:49:47.550Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/saWyxpmbUGg/hqdefault.jpg Install Delivery Pipe and Water Tank — Using gravity to pump water nonstop without power! Full water The poly delivery pipe is extended from the ram pump along the fence line, secured with rebar stakes, and leads to a galvanized steel stock tank located uphill. The pipe feeds into a Dare-O-Matic farm tank float valve, which automatically controls the water level in the tank. This system provides a continuous supply of fresh water for livestock without the need for electricity. The low-flow nature of the ram pump means it slowly but consistently fills the tank (approximately 300 gallons per day). While resilient to cold (down to 17 degrees Fahrenheit), it's important to regularly check for ice buildup around the pump and debris in the intake filter to ensure continuous operation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/saWyxpmbUGg 134 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tractor-down-can-we-find-the-problemand-fix-it-v14606595 2026-10-24T04:49:00.874Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yaRGEIRbC9A/hqdefault.jpg Tractor Down!

For bedding, use pine shavings, specifically a coarse cut. Avoid cedar shavings, as their strong aroma can be noxious to chicks and potentially cause respiratory issues. Newspaper or other wood shavings can also be used, but pine is generally preferred for its absorbency and lack of harmful fumes. The first layer of shavings should be about 1 inch deep and spread evenly across the brooder floor. This deep layer allows chicks to burrow and provides insulation, while also absorbing moisture and odors. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HTILE46TxDA 80 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/best-nononsense-easy-guide-to-raising-your-new-baby-chicks-with-v14606605/install-and-adjust-heatinglighting-c3952887 2026-10-24T04:50:17.961Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HTILE46TxDA/hqdefault.jpg Install and Adjust Heating/Lighting — BEST NO-NONSENSE EASY GUIDE to RAISING YOUR NEW BABY CHICKS wi To maintain optimal temperatures, the brooder needs to be warm, ideally between 85-95 degrees Fahrenheit (29-35 degrees Celsius) directly under the heat source. Chicks must also have enough space to move away from the heat if they get too warm. If chicks huddle together directly under the lamp, the brooder is too cold. If they spread out to the edges, it is too hot. Adjust the lamp's height or wattage accordingly.

Fill the feeder with non-medicated chick starter feed. For meat birds, use a 24% protein mix. If raising layers, a 20% protein mix is suitable. It's best to use crumble-style feed for chicks. Position the feeder in the brooder, away from the heat source. To minimize mess, use a scoop to carefully pour feed into the feeder slots, ensuring any spills fall directly into the brooder rather than outside. For the initial feeding, use cardboard squares underneath the feeder and waterer to keep them stable and prevent tipping, which can create a mess and waste feed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HTILE46TxDA 150 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/best-nononsense-easy-guide-to-raising-your-new-baby-chicks-with-v14606605/introduce-chicks-to-brooder-c3952892 2026-10-24T04:50:17.961Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HTILE46TxDA/hqdefault.jpg Introduce Chicks to Brooder — BEST NO-NONSENSE EASY GUIDE to RAISING YOUR NEW BABY CHICKS with succe Carefully unpack the chicks from their shipping box.

Open the bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol and carefully pour its contents into the spray bottle. Next, open a bottle of cedarwood essential oil (Pura d'or brand is used, 10ml size) and add the entire contents to the alcohol in the spray bottle. The alcohol is necessary because essential oils do not mix with water. Securely attach the spray nozzle and prime it by spraying a few times until the mixture is consistently dispensed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1baiMyqMXrA 116 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-best-way-to-trap-and-get-rid-of-stink-bugsits-so-simple-and-cheap-v14606612/apply-cedarwood-oil-repellent-spray-c3800986 2026-10-23T00:27:03.941Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1baiMyqMXrA/hqdefault.jpg Apply Cedarwood Oil Repellent Spray — The BEST WAY to trap and get rid of STINK BUGS....It's so SIMP Once the cedarwood essential oil spray is prepared, adjust the nozzle of the sprayer to create a 'puff' or mist rather than a direct stream. This ensures a wider, more even distribution of the essential oil. Spray along the exterior siding of the house and especially under the gutters, as stink bugs tend to congregate in these areas. It is recommended to apply this treatment multiple times throughout both the spring and fall seasons for continuous deterrence. Prior to full application, test a small, inconspicuous area to ensure the spray does not stain the surface. Wearing rubber gloves is advisable to prevent the strong, lingering cedar scent from transferring to your hands. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1baiMyqMXrA 75 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-best-way-to-trap-and-get-rid-of-stink-bugsits-so-simple-and-cheap-v14606612/apply-ecosmart-organic-pest-control-c3800992 2026-10-23T00:27:03.941Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1baiMyqMXrA/hqdefault.jpg Apply EcoSmart Organic Pest Control — The BEST WAY to trap and get rid of STINK BUGS....It's so SIMP For a 'fancy' method of stink bug deterrence, the host introduces EcoSmart Organic Home Pest Control, which is safe for indoor and outdoor use around children and pets.

Its natural ingredients include clove oil, rosemary oil, and thyme oil, giving it a menthol-like scent. To apply, spray the product around the exterior of the house, focusing on potential entry points, cracks, crevices, and areas where stink bugs gather, such as under gutters and around window frames. The host recommends one application per spring and one per fall to effectively manage the stink bug problem. Again, wearing rubber gloves is suggested as the spray can cause a strong odor on your hands. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1baiMyqMXrA 188 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-best-way-to-trap-and-get-rid-of-stink-bugsits-so-simple-and-cheap-v14606612/build-use-upcycled-bottle-trap-c3800993 2026-10-23T00:27:03.941Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1baiMyqMXrA/hqdefault.jpg Build & Use Upcycled Bottle Trap — The BEST WAY to trap and get rid of STINK BUGS....It's so SIMPLE When stink bugs manage to get inside your house, an effective and odor-free way to remove them is by using a simple upcycled bottle trap. Take any empty plastic bottle with a cap, such as a Gatorade, water, or soda bottle (the host uses a Gatorade bottle). Position the open end of the bottle directly beneath the stink bug. Gently tap the surface (wall, window, etc.) where the bug is resting. The stink bug will instinctively drop into the bottle. Immediately cap the bottle to contain the bug and its characteristic odor. The bugs will eventually suffocate inside the sealed bottle. This method allows for easy disposal without touching the bugs or experiencing their unpleasant smell. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1baiMyqMXrA 71 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-best-way-to-trap-and-get-rid-of-stink-bugsits-so-simple-and-cheap-v14606612/conclude-and-recap-c3801002 2026-10-23T00:27:03.941Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1baiMyqMXrA/hqdefault.jpg Conclude and Recap — The BEST WAY to trap and get rid of STINK BUGS....It's so SIMPLE and CHEAP! The host concludes the video by summarizing the effectiveness of the organic stink bug control methods.

Begin by spreading the seed first. This allows you to see the tractor tracks and ensure comprehensive coverage without wasting seed. Drive in a circular pattern around the perimeter of the field for the initial passes (e.g., three laps), then drive down the middle. Overlap the passes to achieve heavy coverage. Next, spread the fertilizer, followed by the Solu-Cal (lime). The lime is applied last because it is less caustic than fertilizer and helps clean the machine. When working on a hillside, spread materials heavier at the top and lighter at the bottom, as gravity will cause some material to wash downhill. Driving over the freshly spread seed helps to settle it into the soil, improving seed penetration and germination. https://www.youtube.com/embed/nBstT1UJ8BE 397 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/classic-old-tractor-gets-workout-seeding-new-land-v14606616/clean-equipment-and-store-c3953427 2026-10-24T04:52:17.256Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nBstT1UJ8BE/hqdefault.jpg Clean Equipment and Store — Classic old tractor get's workout seeding new land!

She explains that her autism, which she classifies as 'socially awkward with severe speech delay' rather than Asperger's, makes her an 'extreme visual thinker.' This allows her to perceive what animals see, which is often overlooked by others. She demonstrates how small, visual details like hanging chains or pieces of plastic can cause animals to balk, insights she formalized into checklists in her books. She also touches on the 'point of balance' principle for moving animals forward calmly. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wOvEo_YXLdE 165 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/temple-grandin-livestock-handling-expert-inspiring-conversations-v14606638/calming-animals-and-sensorybased-communication-c3952891 2026-10-24T04:50:20.711Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wOvEo_YXLdE/hqdefault.jpg Calming Animals and Sensory-Based Communication — Temple Grandin: Livestock Handling Expert | Inspir Dr. Grandin elaborates on the importance of calming animals during handling. She states that if animals are agitated, it can take 20-30 minutes for their stress levels to decrease. She advises taking a break to allow them to calm down before proceeding. She stresses that animal handling should move away from verbal language (shouting, whistling) and focus on understanding an animal's 'sensory-based world' – what they see, hear, and smell. She points out the distinct ways cattle and horses perceive touch on their heads, with cattle disliking forehead rubs (as it's a fighting behavior) and preferring rubs on the withers or behind the ears, unlike horses. She emphasizes that playing 'butting games' with calves is not cute as they grow up and can become dangerous. She also discusses the 'hair whorl' as an indicator of an animal's temperament, noting that high hair whorls often correspond to flightier animals. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wOvEo_YXLdE 270 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/temple-grandin-livestock-handling-expert-inspiring-conversations-v14606638/impact-of-novelty-bull-rearing-and-animal-vision-c3952895 2026-10-24T04:50:20.711Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wOvEo_YXLdE/hqdefault.jpg Impact of Novelty, Bull Rearing, and Animal Vision — Temple Grandin: Livestock Handling Expert | Ins Dr. Grandin warns against sudden, intermittent noises and 'new stuff' abruptly introduced to animals. She explains that novelty can be attractive if animals are allowed to voluntarily approach it, suggesting placing new items like flags in a pasture and letting them investigate. The problem arises when novelty suddenly appears in their face, causing flighty animals to react strongly. She discusses the danger of hand-reared bulls raised in isolation from other cattle, as they don't learn bovine social rules and may become aggressive towards humans when sexually mature. She advocates for raising young bulls in social groups with other cattle to teach them appropriate behavior. She highlights that grazing animals like cattle and horses have horizontal, strip-shaped pupils, allowing them to scan the horizon for predators while grazing. This means they will lift their heads quickly if they perceive a threat. Additionally, she clarifies that cattle and horses are partially colorblind, not seeing red, but having excellent night vision. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wOvEo_YXLdE 275 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/temple-grandin-livestock-handling-expert-inspiring-conversations-v14606638/importance-of-handson-skills-and-addressing-supply-chain-fragility-c3952896 2026-10-24T04:50:20.711Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wOvEo_YXLdE/hqdefault.jpg Importance of Hands-On Skills and Addressing Supply Chain Fragility — Temple Grandin: Livestock Hand Dr. Grandin discusses her motivation for entering the field of animal handling, beginning in high school at ages 14-15. She highlights the need for hands-on skills, regretting that modern education often screens out visual thinkers by prioritizing abstract subjects like algebra. She emphasizes the importance of providing opportunities for young people to develop their talents, whether in art, mechanics, or other practical skills. She notes that the clever individuals who can fix machinery or excel in hands-on trades are often visual thinkers. She expresses concern about the loss of skilled trades and engineers who can 'make things,' linking it to the fragility of supply chains exposed during COVID-19. She encourages people to educate themselves, read books, and learn from local experts and extension agents. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wOvEo_YXLdE 350 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/couple-moves-to-colorado-and-builds-dream-home-by-hand-v14606639 2026-10-22T22:12:11.550Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/E4D2lcSKilU/hqdefault.jpg Couple moves to Colorado and builds dream home by hand!

Before beginning, ensure the driveway is clear of anything you don't want to get sprayed, such as vehicles, pets, or other sensitive items. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h4BBHWp-v1A 90 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/get-rid-of-weeds-around-your-property-the-easy-way-v14606644/activate-pump-and-mix-herbicide-c3800192 2026-10-23T00:26:24.666Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h4BBHWp-v1A/hqdefault.jpg Activate Pump and Mix Herbicide — Get rid of weeds around your property the easy way! Connect the power wires from the spray tank's pump directly to the UTV or ATV battery (typically a 12V system). The control switch for the pump is usually located near the operator's station for easy access. Flip the main power switch to turn on the pump. The pump will run until it builds up sufficient pressure (around 60-80 PSI) and then automatically cut off. To ensure the herbicide is uniformly mixed with the water, locate the smaller circulation valve or switch near the pump and activate it. This will cause the mixture to continuously circulate within the tank, preventing settling and ensuring consistent application. Keep this circulation active throughout your spraying process. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h4BBHWp-v1A 73 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/get-rid-of-weeds-around-your-property-the-easy-way-v14606644/perform-broad-area-and-spot-treatments-c3800194 2026-10-23T00:26:24.666Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h4BBHWp-v1A/hqdefault.jpg Perform Broad Area and Spot Treatments — Get rid of weeds around your property the easy way! Once the herbicide mixture is circulating, you can begin spraying. For broad areas like the main driveway, activate the spray boom using its dedicated switch. Drive the UTV/ATV at a consistent speed to ensure even coverage across the 16-foot swath. This method is highly efficient for large, open spaces and can also be used for dust control. For specific spot treatments, such as around building edges, fences, or isolated weeds, turn off the boom sprayer. Then, use the handheld spray wand. Its long hose allows you to reach up to 12 feet away from the vehicle, and its adjustable brass tip can be set for a wide fan spray or a targeted stream, providing precision for individual weeds or hard-to-reach areas. The sprayer's non-drip nozzles prevent accidental chemical release when the system is turned off. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h4BBHWp-v1A 177 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/get-rid-of-weeds-around-your-property-the-easy-way-v14606644/clean-sprayer-and-store-safely-c3800199 2026-10-23T00:26:24.666Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h4BBHWp-v1A/hqdefault.jpg Clean Sprayer and Store Safely — Get rid of weeds around your property the easy way! After completing all herbicide applications, it is crucial to thoroughly clean the spray system. Dispose of your used gloves only after the cleaning process is finished. Rinse the tank multiple times with clean water, ensuring all herbicide residue is flushed out. This prevents chemical buildup, clogging of nozzles, and corrosion of internal components, particularly if using salt-based herbicides like glyphosate. The spray boom is spring-loaded and collapsible, designed to prevent damage if it accidentally hits an obstacle, allowing it to fold up rather than break. Always store the cleaned sprayer in a safe location, away from children, pets, and anything that could be damaged by residual chemicals. Refer to the meter on the back of the tank to manage mixture levels if you don't need to spray the full 25 gallons. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h4BBHWp-v1A 99 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/old-time-mowing-technology-with-a-new-twist-see-how-it-works-save-v14606645 2026-10-24T04:49:00.943Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mwaD6WGpR4Q/hqdefault.jpg Old time mowing technology with a new twist!

A 12.5-gauge high-tensile wire is left unwrapped at the bottom of the fence line. This guide wire serves as a straight line, preventing the fence from looking like a 'snake' due to uneven ground or wind. It also offers a huge benefit as an added layer of protection against animal pressure, often replacing a hot wire or barbed wire on top, as it's at the point of most stress on the fence (the bottom). The chain stretcher tool is used to manage this wire. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qaZtECyrSFk 135 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-youve-never-seentipstricks-and-lessons-from-the-pros-v14606648/operating-the-hydraulic-winch-for-extreme-tension-c3952703 2026-10-24T04:50:00.594Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qaZtECyrSFk/hqdefault.jpg Operating the Hydraulic Winch for Extreme Tension — Fencing Like you've never seen..tips..tricks and The Protech Evo 1 machine is equipped with a hydraulic winch capable of 20,000 pounds of pull capacity, significantly more than electric winches (typically 14,000 pounds). The hydraulic winch is ideal for applying extreme tension to the high-tensile fence wire. The downside is that the machine's engine must be running to operate the hydraulic winch. For very long stretches of wire, this powerful winch allows for precise and strong tensioning. An alternative for manual tensioning is the 'boundary strainer,' which consists of chain walkers and can be tied off to a strainer post. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qaZtECyrSFk 106 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-youve-never-seentipstricks-and-lessons-from-the-pros-v14606648/constructing-robust-brace-posts-for-corners-c3952704 2026-10-24T04:50:00.594Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qaZtECyrSFk/hqdefault.jpg Constructing Robust Brace Posts for Corners — Fencing Like you've never seen..tips..tricks and lesso Brace posts are crucial for absorbing the immense tension of high-tensile woven wire. The video demonstrates a 'turn assembly' brace for corners, consisting of a 4-inch by 10-foot Schedule 40 pipe as the strainer post, a 10-foot by 2.375-inch pipe for the strut, and a 3-inch by 6-foot stubby pipe driven completely into the ground. These components are welded together to create a super-tight, good-looking brace that resists pulling up from the ground. Unlike traditional bracing along the fence line, this system braces directly into the middle of the turn's angle, effectively counteracting the opposing forces without lifting the post. This design is robust, prevents post lift-out, and ensures the fence remains taut. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qaZtECyrSFk 101 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-youve-never-seentipstricks-and-lessons-from-the-pros-v14606648/stripping-fixed-knots-easily-c3952705 2026-10-24T04:50:00.594Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qaZtECyrSFk/hqdefault.jpg Stripping Fixed Knots Easily — Fencing Like you've never seen..tips..tricks and lessons from the pro To modify the high-tensile woven wire for specific sections or to remove excess, the fixed knots need to be 'stripped.' A common misconception is that this requires many cuts, leaving tiny, hard-to-track scraps. The proper technique involves cutting only the vertical stay wire precisely in the center of the fixed knot. Once the vertical stay is cut, the top of the fixed knot can be bent over with pliers, loosening it instantly. This allows the entire piece of scrap wire to slide right off the line wire. This method results in larger, manageable scrap pieces, reducing the risk of small, sharp wire fragments being left in the field, which could harm animals or machinery. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qaZtECyrSFk 89 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-youve-never-seentipstricks-and-lessons-from-the-pros-v14606648/installing-ratchet-strainers-xt1-for-short-runs-c3952706 2026-10-24T04:50:00.594Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qaZtECyrSFk/hqdefault.jpg Installing Ratchet Strainers (XT1) for Short Runs — Fencing Like you've never seen..tips..tricks and For very short runs of high-tensile fencing (e.g., 5-acre pastures) where the slack is difficult to absorb with standard methods, Strainrite XT1 ratchet strainers are used as termination points. This specialized strainer allows wire to pass through freely before tensioning, avoiding breaks. For woven wire, the XT1 is tied to the post with a termination knot and 10 tight wraps around the wire. The cog-up design on the XT1 helps maintain an even fence line. The tensioning is done using pliers or a wrench on the cog. The video shows this being done at a post where an existing roll of wire ends and another begins. This method ensures maximum tension and prevents slack in short sections. After tensioning, the excess wire is 'rung off' (twisted until it breaks) to avoid sharp edges that could injure animals. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qaZtECyrSFk 190 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-youve-never-seentipstricks-and-lessons-from-the-pros-v14606648/advantages-of-galvanized-pipe-posts-and-post-spacing-c3952707 2026-10-24T04:50:00.594Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qaZtECyrSFk/hqdefault.jpg Advantages of Galvanized Pipe Posts and Post Spacing — Fencing Like you've never seen..tips..tricks The video discusses the benefits of using Schedule 40 galvanized pipe posts over traditional wood posts for fencing, especially in rocky terrain. Pipe posts are only slightly more expensive than wood posts and offer significant advantages: they can be driven directly through small or fractured rock without splintering or breaking, unlike wood posts that would either break or be kicked off to the side. Pipe posts are also consistently straight, eliminating crooked posts and making fence lines visually appealing. They do not split, can be hauled more efficiently in bundles, and have a high moisture content which makes them more durable. This results in a fence that lasts three times longer than a wood-posted fence. Additionally, modern high-tensile woven wire fencing, with its inherent stiffness, allows for wider post spacing (up to 25 feet), reducing the overall cost of installation while maintaining effectiveness, especially when there isn't much stock pressure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qaZtECyrSFk 103 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-youve-never-seentipstricks-and-lessons-from-the-pros-v14606648/joining-wire-rolls-with-figureeight-knots-c3952708 2026-10-24T04:50:00.594Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qaZtECyrSFk/hqdefault.jpg Joining Wire Rolls with Figure-Eight Knots — Fencing Like you've never seen..tips..tricks and lesson This segment shows the process of joining two rolls of high-tensile woven wire using figure-eight knots. The ends of the two wire rolls are brought together, and each horizontal strand is tied off with multiple figure-eight knots. This technique effectively connects the wire rolls without the need for crimp sleeves or gripples, ensuring a continuous and strong fence line. The knots are initially tied loosely, but as the fence is tensioned, the figure-eight knots will tighten down perfectly, creating a clean and secure splice.

The cows need your help! The video begins with an introduction to the passive siphoning water system used to hydrate cattle directly from a pond. The system utilizes 3/4 inch poly pipe to transport water to multiple water tanks for the cattle. The primary issue is the system frequently losing its siphon, requiring manual re-priming by sucking on the pipe. The creator seeks advice from viewers familiar with plumbing or siphoning systems to diagnose and resolve this recurring problem. Potential causes discussed include extreme heat affecting the poly pipe and the development of air pockets within the system. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qSePwFdrVdQ 116 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/passive-water-system-keeps-failing-the-cows-need-your-help-v14606654/system-description-and-suspected-issues-c3953651 2026-10-24T04:52:27.960Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qSePwFdrVdQ/hqdefault.jpg System Description and Suspected Issues — Passive water system keeps failing! The cows need your hel The siphoning system originates from a pond, utilizing an underwater filter system with a float to draw water. The water travels from the pond intake, which is approximately 10-12 feet higher than the water tanks, through the poly pipe. At the highest point of the pipe system near the tanks, a valve has been installed to allow trapped air to 'burp out.' To prevent backflow of air, a swing check valve (a brass valve with a internal swinging mechanism) was installed just below the pond's water level. This valve is designed to allow water flow in one direction but prevent reverse flow. The creator demonstrates how the valve should operate by blowing into it, showing that air passes in one direction but not the other. However, the system continues to lose prime, suggesting other issues. Possible culprits include a tiny undetected hole in the pipe, heat causing micro-air bubbles, or a section of the pipe being physically squashed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qSePwFdrVdQ 270 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/passive-water-system-keeps-failing-the-cows-need-your-help-v14606654/gathering-tools-and-planning-initial-fix-c3953652 2026-10-24T04:52:27.960Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qSePwFdrVdQ/hqdefault.jpg Gathering Tools and Planning Initial Fix — Passive water system keeps failing! The cows need your he The creator prepares for troubleshooting by showcasing equipment. A John Deere 1100 generator will provide power. A submersible/sump pump, acquired from Amazon, is set up with a garden hose and a T-valve for easy connection to the poly pipe. This pump will be used to forcibly prime the system, eliminating the need for manual suction. Additionally, a new roll of 150-foot, 3/4-inch poly pipe is on hand for replacing any damaged sections. For areas where the pipe might be crossed by vehicles, heavy-duty interlocking yellow and black cable hose protectors, sourced from Palletforks.com, are introduced. These protectors are designed to house cables and hoses, preventing damage and maintaining integrity even under heavy loads. The immediate plan is to locate and replace any squashed sections of the pipe, then re-prime the system. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qSePwFdrVdQ 292 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/passive-water-system-keeps-failing-the-cows-need-your-help-v14606654/pipe-inspection-and-replacement-c3953653 2026-10-24T04:52:27.960Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qSePwFdrVdQ/hqdefault.jpg Pipe Inspection and Replacement — Passive water system keeps failing! The cows need your help! The creator retrieves the old pipe and filter system from the pond. The filter, a PVC pipe with numerous holes covered in window screen, is examined and confirmed not to be blocked. He then locates a 'squashed' section of the poly pipe, which is meant to be the suspected cause of the siphon loss. Using a pipe cutter, he removes this squashed section. Upon inspection, the 'squashed' part shows only a minimal reduction in diameter compared to a normal pipe section, making the creator question if this was indeed the main problem. The newly cut pipe ends are then connected using a compression coupling and two stainless steel hose clamps, ensuring a tight seal. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qSePwFdrVdQ 377 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/passive-water-system-keeps-failing-the-cows-need-your-help-v14606654/repriming-and-testing-c3953654 2026-10-24T04:52:27.960Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qSePwFdrVdQ/hqdefault.jpg Re-priming and Testing — Passive water system keeps failing! The cows need your help! After replacing the pipe section, the system is re-primed by reintroducing the intake into the pond. The creator manually sucks on the pipe end to initiate the siphon. Upon opening the valve at the highest point, water flows out, but the pressure is noticeably less than anticipated, and the flow is not constant, frequently stopping. He then moves to the lowest point of the pipe system and opens another valve, observing the same intermittent and low-pressure flow, which eventually stops completely. The creator expresses frustration, noting that water flow should be continuous at both the high point (valve for air release) and the low point. He ponders if the slightly squashed pipe section was indeed causing restricted flow, leading to air pockets, or if the swing check valve is failing in a low-pressure environment. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qSePwFdrVdQ 382 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/trespassers-deer-crows-rabbits-this-keeps-them-all-away-v14606655 2026-10-24T04:52:59.047Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/u8QGj9zzftQ/hqdefault.jpg Trespassers?

He explains that while Cornish Cross are known for their large breast size, they tend to 'lounge' (lay around) a lot, especially in heat. However, on his farm, with access to outdoor space, they don't lounge as much. He then showcases the setup: a 10x12 foot mobile chicken coop (chicken tractor) made from PVC pipe, two rows of Premier1 electric poultry netting surrounding the area, and various feeders and waterers. He points out the different types of netting used, including a 'shock or not' fence for baby chicks and standard poultry netting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/spuIpBXDKyQ 219 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/freedom-from-the-grocery-store-raising-your-own-chicken-is-simple-v14606659/releasing-chickens-for-foraging-c3952225 2026-10-24T04:49:23.885Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/spuIpBXDKyQ/hqdefault.jpg Releasing Chickens for Foraging — Freedom from the Grocery Store!

He explains that his chickens, being pastured, get plenty of sunshine (Vitamin D), bugs, grass, and room to exercise. To demonstrate this, he turns off the Intellishock 60 fence charger by pressing a button and then opens the gate of the Premier1 electric poultry netting. The chickens, initially lounging under the coop, excitedly run out to explore and forage across the quarter-acre area, hunting for June bugs and Japanese beetles, which are in season. This activity contributes to their tenderness and overall health. https://www.youtube.com/embed/spuIpBXDKyQ 262 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/freedom-from-the-grocery-store-raising-your-own-chicken-is-simple-v14606659/wet-feeding-method-c3952226 2026-10-24T04:49:23.885Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/spuIpBXDKyQ/hqdefault.jpg Wet Feeding Method — Freedom from the Grocery Store! Raising your own chicken is simple! The farmer demonstrates his feeding method. He takes five scoops of organic feed (Reedy Fork Farm brand) into a 5-gallon bucket, which is about half a bucket full. He then adds water to the feed until it's about an inch from the top. He lets the feed sit for approximately 20 minutes to allow the water to soak in. He explains that they typically mix the feed a day or two in advance. This wet feeding method pre-digests the food, provides probiotics (like a vinegar), reduces food waste, helps chickens digest better, minimizes manure output, and promotes faster growth. Each flock of 100 birds consumes about 2,000 pounds of feed before slaughter. https://www.youtube.com/embed/spuIpBXDKyQ 102 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/freedom-from-the-grocery-store-raising-your-own-chicken-is-simple-v14606659/comparing-broiler-breeds-and-final-advice-c3952227 2026-10-24T04:49:23.885Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/spuIpBXDKyQ/hqdefault.jpg Comparing Broiler Breeds and Final Advice — Freedom from the Grocery Store! Raising your own chicken The farmer visually compares the two broiler breeds: white Cornish Cross and brown Ranger Broilers. He notes that Cornish Cross, despite stereotypes, are active when given the opportunity. He points out that Ranger Broilers are generally more active, better at foraging, and more robust than Cornish Cross, making them better suited for extensive free-ranging. However, Cornish Cross grow faster. He stresses that allowing chickens to roam and forage results in better, more tender, and more nutritious meat. He reiterates that happy birds are healthy birds, and healthy birds produce healthy food. https://www.youtube.com/embed/spuIpBXDKyQ 227 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/get-rid-of-japanese-beetles-without-poison-chemicals-or-sprays-v14606660 2026-10-24T04:53:09.154Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8Vfteje6EFo/hqdefault.jpg Get rid of Japanese beetles without poison chemicals or sprays!

The TR3 Tractor Rake, a '3-in-1' tool, is composed of several key components: depth-regulating wheels, a grader blade, scarifiers, and a rear finishing comb. The depth wheels (one on each side) cruise along the ground, allowing for precise height adjustment of the main blade. The grader blade is designed to rake up material, pulling dirt and brush, and can also be used to fill low spots. The scarifiers, adjustable in depth, break up large dirt clods and roots. Finally, the rear comb smoothes and levels the surface, similar to a traditional rake. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fUrlS3_R7aE 171 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-land-or-lawn-leveling-tool-like-this-v14606663/adjusting-the-tr3-rake-for-seedbed-preparation-c3799422 2026-10-23T00:25:43.799Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fUrlS3_R7aE/hqdefault.jpg Adjusting the TR3 Rake for Seedbed Preparation — You've never seen a land or lawn leveling tool like The TR3 rake offers adjustable settings for its scarifiers and its floating mechanism. For breaking up clods and preparing a seedbed on newly cleared land, the scarifiers should be set to rip about 3 to 3.5 inches deep. This can be adjusted by moving pins up or down. The floating mechanism for the rear comb is crucial; it allows the grader blade and comb to continuously touch the ground, effectively leveling high spots and filling low spots. The speaker demonstrates how to engage or disengage the floating mode by adjusting pins. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fUrlS3_R7aE 173 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-land-or-lawn-leveling-tool-like-this-v14606663/operating-the-tractor-with-tr3-rake-c3799423 2026-10-23T00:25:43.799Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fUrlS3_R7aE/hqdefault.jpg Operating the Tractor with TR3 Rake — You've never seen a land or lawn leveling tool like this! To effectively smooth the land and prepare it for seeding, operate the tractor and TR3 rake in concentric circles, starting from the perimeter and working inwards. This circular motion is crucial for distributing soil and debris evenly, contrasting with a back-and-forth 'mowing' pattern which is less effective. The rake's scarifiers will rip the soil, the grader blade will pull and distribute material, and the rear comb will provide a fine finish. This continuous action creates a smooth, loose soil surface that is ideal for broadcasting or drilling seeds. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fUrlS3_R7aE 279 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-land-or-lawn-leveling-tool-like-this-v14606663/final-assessment-and-next-steps-c3799424 2026-10-23T00:25:43.799Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fUrlS3_R7aE/hqdefault.jpg Final Assessment and Next Steps — You've never seen a land or lawn leveling tool like this!

Convert deep woods into silvopasture by selectively cutting trees and clearing undergrowth. Pigs are then rotated through half-acre paddocks using two strands of electric fencing (powered by an energizer). Move pigs every 5 to 12 days to new paddocks. The pigs forage for up to 40% of their diet from the pasture, improving the fat profile of their meat (making it polyunsaturated, like 'olive oil pigs') and adding iron, which results in a desirable rose-colored meat. The gentle disturbance from the pigs also awakens latent seed banks in the soil, promoting new growth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ta-XnASUopg 477 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/why-isnt-everyone-farming-like-this-v14606674/building-and-managing-gravityfed-ponds-for-water-distribution-c3952562 2026-10-24T04:49:49.979Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ta-XnASUopg/hqdefault.jpg Building and Managing Gravity-Fed Ponds for Water Distribution — Why isn't everyone farming like thi Construct permaculture-style ponds on high terrain to capture surface runoff, utilizing gravity for water distribution. These ponds (a series of them can be built) are filled solely by rain and snowmelt, holding water that would otherwise cause downstream flooding. Position a water intake pipe 16 inches below the surface using a float and a metal weight on the bottom. This ensures the best water quality (avoiding surface debris and anaerobic bottom water). The system provides 70 PSI water pressure to 8 miles of buried water lines, feeding various livestock operations across the farm without pumps. Regularly remove any trees or unwanted vegetation from the pond's dam using hand tools like snips or loppers, as roots can compromise the dam's integrity. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ta-XnASUopg 380 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/why-isnt-everyone-farming-like-this-v14606674/operating-the-eggmobile-mobile-layer-hen-housing-c3952568 2026-10-24T04:49:49.979Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ta-XnASUopg/hqdefault.jpg Operating the Eggmobile (Mobile Layer Hen Housing) — Why isn't everyone farming like this? The Eggmobile (a large, mobile chicken coop made from repurposed mobile home chassis with a slatted floor) houses approximately 800 layer hens. It is moved daily or every few days (typically 3-4 days behind cattle) using a tractor to provide new forage. The slatted floor allows manure to drop directly onto the pasture, providing fertilizer and attracting fly larvae, grasshoppers, and crickets for the chickens to eat. Electric netting (Millennium Feathernet by Premier1Supplies) is used to create enclosed quarter-acre paddocks around the Eggmobile. This fencing prevents ground predators, and guard geese (if present) protect against aerial predators. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ta-XnASUopg 295 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/why-isnt-everyone-farming-like-this-v14606674/implementing-daily-mob-grazing-for-cattle-c3952569 2026-10-24T04:49:49.979Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ta-XnASUopg/hqdefault.jpg Implementing Daily Mob Grazing for Cattle — Why isn't everyone farming like this? Utilize electric polywire fencing to manage daily mob grazing rotations for cattle. The herd is moved to a new paddock (sized for one day's grazing) every day, ensuring they consume all available forage before moving to a fresh area. This system maximizes grass utilization and promotes rapid regrowth. The electric fence acts as the 'steering wheel, brake, and accelerator' for the herd, precisely controlling their movement and impact on the pasture. The goal is to stimulate the grass's 'teenage' growth phase (the most productive part of its S-curve growth), leading to significantly higher carrying capacities (e.g., 400 cow-days per acre per year compared to 80 on conventional farms). https://www.youtube.com/embed/ta-XnASUopg 64 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/these-gourds-will-keep-mosquitos-away-naturally-v14606675 2026-10-24T04:53:14.341Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CyN8BKD5h4s/hqdefault.jpg These Gourds will KEEP MOSQUITOS AWAY NATURALLY!

The video opens with the presenter, Josh from Stoney Ridge Farmer, explaining the purpose of the project: creating birdhouses from gourds to establish martin colonies on his farm for insect control. He shows both a cleaned, painted yellow gourd birdhouse and several raw, dried gourds. He emphasizes that purple martins, specifically, are beneficial as they catch insects like mosquitoes and flies while flying. He highlights that Native Americans historically used gourds for this purpose to prevent sickness. The presenter explains that properly prepared gourd birdhouses can last up to 20 years with annual maintenance. https://www.youtube.com/embed/CyN8BKD5h4s 295 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/these-gourds-will-keep-mosquitos-away-naturally-v14606675/prepare-and-clean-dried-gourds-c3954261 2026-10-24T04:53:14.341Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CyN8BKD5h4s/hqdefault.jpg Prepare and Clean Dried Gourds — These Gourds will KEEP MOSQUITOS AWAY NATURALLY! Begin by removing the stem from the top of the dried gourd. Use a pair of sharp pruning shears, such as Corona brand trimmers, to cut the stem, leaving a stub of approximately a quarter-inch. Next, address the flaky outer layers on the gourd's surface. These layers can be removed using either a sanding sponge (recommended for manual labor) or an electric random orbital sander, specifically a Worx Sander with a dust collection attachment for efficiency. The goal is to remove all loose, rough, and dirty material to create a smooth surface for painting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/CyN8BKD5h4s 210 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/these-gourds-will-keep-mosquitos-away-naturally-v14606675/drill-entrance-and-hanging-holes-c3954287 2026-10-24T04:53:14.341Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CyN8BKD5h4s/hqdefault.jpg Drill Entrance and Hanging Holes — These Gourds will KEEP MOSQUITOS AWAY NATURALLY! Select an appropriate size hole saw for the bird species you intend to attract. For purple martins, a 2 1/4 inch hole saw is used. The presenter demonstrates using a Bosch multi-blade hole saw kit. Secure the selected hole saw bit onto a cordless drill. Identify the 'bulged out' side of the gourd for the entrance hole. Position the drill at a slight downward angle, just slightly tilted from perpendicular to the gourd's surface, to prevent rain from entering the birdhouse. Carefully begin drilling, applying gentle pressure as the gourd is fragile. Once the main entrance hole is drilled, use a smaller 1/4 inch drill bit to create a hole at the top of the gourd for hanging. Ensure this hole is drilled straight through the top to allow the gourd to hang securely. https://www.youtube.com/embed/CyN8BKD5h4s 250 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/these-gourds-will-keep-mosquitos-away-naturally-v14606675/clean-interior-and-add-drainage-holes-c3954292 2026-10-24T04:53:14.341Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CyN8BKD5h4s/hqdefault.jpg Clean Interior and Add Drainage Holes — These Gourds will KEEP MOSQUITOS AWAY NATURALLY! After drilling the entrance hole, shake the gourd vigorously to dislodge any loose seeds and paper-like fibrous material from the interior. Collect the seeds in a bucket for potential future planting. If some material remains stubborn, use a modified wooden spoon (sanded down to fit through the entrance hole) to scrape and remove the remaining debris. Ensure the interior is as clean as possible. Next, drill three evenly spaced small drainage holes (using the 1/4 inch bit) around the bottom 'belly button' divot of the gourd. These holes are crucial to allow any rainwater that enters the birdhouse to drain, preventing rot and maintaining a healthy environment for the birds. https://www.youtube.com/embed/CyN8BKD5h4s 100 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/these-gourds-will-keep-mosquitos-away-naturally-v14606675/disinfect-and-prepare-for-painting-c3954293 2026-10-24T04:53:14.341Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CyN8BKD5h4s/hqdefault.jpg Disinfect and Prepare for Painting — These Gourds will KEEP MOSQUITOS AWAY NATURALLY! To prepare the gourds for painting and long-term use, disinfect them with a solution of 1 part chlorine bleach to 9 parts water. Spray this solution inside and outside the gourd, focusing on reaching all interior surfaces. This step is critical to kill any mites or other small pests that might be present, providing a clean and healthy environment for the birds. After disinfection, allow the gourds to dry completely before proceeding to the painting stage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/CyN8BKD5h4s 40 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/these-gourds-will-keep-mosquitos-away-naturally-v14606675/paint-the-gourds-c3954294 2026-10-24T04:53:14.341Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CyN8BKD5h4s/hqdefault.jpg Paint the Gourds — These Gourds will KEEP MOSQUITOS AWAY NATURALLY! Choose a high-quality spray paint that includes primer, such as Rustoleum American Accents 2X Ultra Cover paint + primer in white. White is recommended to reflect heat and keep the birdhouses cool, preventing birds from overheating. Avoid dark colors, as they absorb heat. For easier painting and to prevent finger fatigue, use a spray paint trigger controller attachment. Hang the gourds on a drying rack, which can be made from two saw horses and a piece of wire or string strung between them. Apply a light, even coat of paint, starting from the bottom and working your way up, ensuring good coverage around the entrance hole which is particularly absorbent. Allow the first coat to dry overnight, then apply a second coat the next day in direct sunlight for best results. https://www.youtube.com/embed/CyN8BKD5h4s 270 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-your-own-food-is-easy-pastured-poultry-setup-that-works-v14606676 2026-10-24T04:52:59.544Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLJY9U4SakI/hqdefault.jpg Raising your own food is easy!

The indoor brooder, a large black circular plastic container, is shown filled with young chicks that are clearly crowded, indicating they are ready for a larger space. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qLJY9U4SakI 44 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-your-own-food-is-easy-pastured-poultry-setup-that-works-v14606676/mow-pasture-and-repair-mower-c3954091 2026-10-24T04:52:59.544Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLJY9U4SakI/hqdefault.jpg Mow Pasture and Repair Mower — Raising your own food is easy! Pastured Poultry Setup that works! Before moving the birds, a specific section of the pasture needs to be mowed to a suitable, short height. This ensures that the electric poultry netting will make full contact with the ground, preventing the chicks from escaping underneath. Josh takes his dogs for a dip in the pond to cool off before heading to the tractor shed to retrieve his 'Swisher Big Mo' zero-turn mower. Upon starting the mower, it unexpectedly dies. Josh diagnoses the issue as a chewed fuel line, likely by a squirrel or rat, and quickly replaces the in-line fuel filter to get the mower operational again. He then proceeds to mow the grass in a circular pattern, creating a cleared area for the mobile coop and fencing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qLJY9U4SakI 277 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-your-own-food-is-easy-pastured-poultry-setup-that-works-v14606676/deploy-mobile-coop-and-electric-fence-c3954092 2026-10-24T04:52:59.544Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLJY9U4SakI/hqdefault.jpg Deploy Mobile Coop and Electric Fence — Raising your own food is easy! Pastured Poultry Setup that w Josh positions a mobile chicken coop, measuring 12x10 feet and capable of housing 35-50 birds, in the freshly mowed pasture. He explains that this coop is designed to be moved daily, allowing the chickens to access fresh forage and naturally fertilize different sections of the land. He then sets up 'Premier 1 Shocker Net' poultry netting in a circular pattern around the mobile coop. This netting features a smaller mesh at the bottom to prevent small chicks from escaping. The fence is energized by an 'Intellishock 60' solar fence charger, which is designed to deter predators while also containing the birds. He demonstrates installing the solar charger by driving its integrated ground rod into the earth and connecting its clips to the netting. The charger provides a pulsed electric shock to the fence. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qLJY9U4SakI 244 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-your-own-food-is-easy-pastured-poultry-setup-that-works-v14606676/move-chicks-from-brooder-to-pasture-c3954093 2026-10-24T04:52:59.544Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLJY9U4SakI/hqdefault.jpg Move Chicks from Brooder to Pasture — Raising your own food is easy!

He discusses the advantages of Cornish Cross meat birds for fast growth and tender meat, contrasting them with Ranger Broilers which are hardier and better foragers but grow slower and consume more feed. He proceeds to carefully transfer the chicks, filling buckets with them one by one, and gently releases them into the newly prepared pasture area, allowing them to acclimate and explore their grassy new environment for the first time. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qLJY9U4SakI 189 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-your-own-food-is-easy-pastured-poultry-setup-that-works-v14606676/set-up-feed-and-water-systems-c3954094 2026-10-24T04:52:59.544Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLJY9U4SakI/hqdefault.jpg Set Up Feed and Water Systems — Raising your own food is easy! Pastured Poultry Setup that works! Upon successful transfer of the chicks, Josh sets up their essential feeding and watering systems. He uses a 'Brower type feeder' for their organic feed, sourced from Reedy Fork Farm. He also installs a large 5-gallon watering system, ensuring its spout is positioned downhill for optimal water flow. Josh explains the benefits of wetting the feed: it helps to sprout any seeds, releasing sugars, which makes the food easier for the chicks to digest and helps them gain weight faster, while also reducing waste (less poop). However, he decides to start with dry feed for the initial transition period to avoid additional stress on the newly introduced birds, planning to gradually introduce the wet feed over the next few days. He explains they prepare enough wet food to last 2 days, to avoid fermentation but allow sprouting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qLJY9U4SakI 191 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-your-own-food-is-easy-pastured-poultry-setup-that-works-v14606676/understand-pasture-management-safety-c3954095 2026-10-24T04:52:59.544Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qLJY9U4SakI/hqdefault.jpg Understand Pasture Management & Safety — Raising your own food is easy! Pastured Poultry Setup that Josh concludes by addressing several common concerns and questions related to pasture chicken management. He clarifies that meat birds in this system do not need to be brought indoors at night and do not require roosting poles. He reiterates the importance of ensuring the poultry netting is close to the ground to prevent chicks from escaping, highlighting that mowing the grass short beforehand is crucial for this. He acknowledges the threat of aerial predators like hawks and owls, advising that owners should assess their specific property for such risks and consider adding a net over the top of the enclosure if needed. Finally, he emphasizes that the entire mobile coop and netting apparatus is moved regularly, at least once every 5-7 days or sooner depending on the manure load, to distribute fertilizer evenly, provide fresh forage, and prevent damage to the pasture from concentrated chicken activity. https://www.youtube.com/embed/qLJY9U4SakI 102 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-chicken-feed-is-madeit-might-surprise-you-v14606678 2026-10-23T00:22:46.437Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Kj-DOj0Kdjk/hqdefault.jpg How Chicken feed is made...it might surprise you!

Measure the vertical distance between the center of the upper gate hanger and the center of the lower gate hanger as it sits on the gate. This is a crucial measurement for aligning the hinges on the post. Then, measure the desired clearance from the ground to the bottom of the gate (e.g., 11 inches) and mark this point on the post. From this bottom mark, measure up the previously determined hanger-to-hanger distance (e.g., 37.5 inches) and mark the upper drilling spot. Use a level to check if the post is plumb, as even slight leans can affect the gate's levelness. https://www.youtube.com/embed/TvGSTQV0cF4 141 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-install-a-farm-gate-v14606680/drill-hanger-holes-in-post-c3953495 2026-10-24T04:52:20.282Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TvGSTQV0cF4/hqdefault.jpg Drill Hanger Holes in Post — HOW TO INSTALL A FARM GATE Using a cordless impact driver fitted with a 3/4 inch paddle bit, drill the holes at the marked locations on the wooden fence post.

Use a brush or cloth to ensure the bead seating area is clean. The video also discusses the different types of large truck rims: tubeless, two-piece, and three-piece. Special care must be taken with split-rims (often called 'suicide rims') due to the risk of explosive decompression if not handled properly. The tire in this step is a tubeless type, which is generally safer. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rF7F4xEtnRs 295 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/abandoned-truck-buried-in-the-bushes-for-15-years-and-we-drove-it-home-v14606702/manual-tire-mounting-c3952241 2026-10-24T04:49:24.456Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rF7F4xEtnRs/hqdefault.jpg Manual Tire Mounting — Abandoned Truck Buried in the BUSHES for 15 years! And we drove it home!! After removing the old tire, use long pry bars (tire irons) to manually remove the tire from the rim. For tubeless tires, ensure the rim is clean and lubricated before mounting. Apply a good coat of tire mounting lubricant (or 'Marvel Mystery Oil' as used in the video) to both beads of the new tire and the rim flanges. This eases the mounting process and helps prevent damage to the tire beads. Use a large hammer or sledgehammer to seat the tire beads onto the rim. Finally, use an air cannon (a tank that releases a burst of air) to quickly inflate the tire and properly seat the beads, creating a seal. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rF7F4xEtnRs 455 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/abandoned-truck-buried-in-the-bushes-for-15-years-and-we-drove-it-home-v14606702/final-assembly-and-conclusion-c3952250 2026-10-24T04:49:24.456Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rF7F4xEtnRs/hqdefault.jpg Final Assembly and Conclusion — Abandoned Truck Buried in the BUSHES for 15 years!

This video provides detailed instructions on how to start seeds indoors using two common methods: Jiffy peat pellets and multi-cell seed starting trays. While the presenter demonstrates with common garden vegetables like tomatoes, peas, squash, zucchini, and bell peppers, these precise techniques are directly applicable to cultivating various native plants for later transplant. The process covers preparing the growing medium, planting small and large seeds, initial watering, and essential post-germination care including acclimating seedlings to outdoor conditions and thinning overcrowded plants. This method allows for a controlled environment to ensure higher germination rates and stronger seedlings before they are installed into a native plant garden, which complements broader native plant installation strategies. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0x4d8MkgRKY 1463 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-start-your-vegetable-garden-seeds-with-success-v14606706/introduction-to-seed-starting-methods-c3953125 2026-10-24T04:51:53.813Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0x4d8MkgRKY/hqdefault.jpg Introduction to Seed Starting Methods — How to start your vegetable garden seeds with success!

Unpack the Jiffy Professional Greenhouse kit by removing the cardboard sleeve and lifting the clear plastic lid. Inside, you'll find a tray filled with compressed peat moss pucks, along with a small instruction sheet and plant labels. The peat pucks are designed to expand significantly when wet. Prepare a warm water solution, optionally adding a packet of 'SUPERthrive Plant Vitamin for Seedlings' (a micronutrient and phosphorus blend) to two quarts of lukewarm water to enhance root establishment and overall plant health. Ensure the water is lukewarm (around 110-120°F) to avoid harming beneficial microorganisms. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0x4d8MkgRKY 252 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-start-your-vegetable-garden-seeds-with-success-v14606706/expand-peat-pellets-and-allow-to-cool-c3953127 2026-10-24T04:51:53.813Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0x4d8MkgRKY/hqdefault.jpg Expand Peat Pellets and Allow to Cool — How to start your vegetable garden seeds with success! Pour the prepared lukewarm water (with or without plant vitamin) quickly and evenly over the compressed peat pellets in the tray. It is crucial to do this rapidly to ensure even expansion. The peat pellets will absorb the water and swell up to several times their original size within about 4 minutes. Use approximately 2 to 2.5 quarts of water for a 72-cell tray; using too little will result in dry pellets, and too much will create a flood, requiring excess water to be drained. Once the pellets are fully expanded and the water is absorbed, the peat is ready for planting. Do not place seeds immediately into the warm, expanded pellets; allow them to cool down, as extreme heat can harm beneficial microorganisms. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0x4d8MkgRKY 102 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-start-your-vegetable-garden-seeds-with-success-v14606706/plant-small-seeds-in-peat-pellets-c3953128 2026-10-24T04:51:53.813Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0x4d8MkgRKY/hqdefault.jpg Plant Small Seeds in Peat Pellets — How to start your vegetable garden seeds with success! To plant small seeds like Roma tomatoes, use a tool like a mechanical pencil, stick, or toothpick to gently poke a small hole (about 1/4 inch deep) into the center of each cooled, expanded peat pellet. For convenience, plant seeds row by row. If the hole is too tight, carefully widen it. Then, using your fingers or tweezers, place two to three small seeds into each hole. This ensures better germination rates. If multiple seeds germinate, you will thin them later. Cover the seeds by gently patting the peat moss back over the hole. Repeat this process for all desired planting cells. Ensure you keep track of what seeds are planted in which rows by labeling them. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0x4d8MkgRKY 263 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-start-your-vegetable-garden-seeds-with-success-v14606706/prepare-seed-starting-trays-for-large-seeds-c3953129 2026-10-24T04:51:53.813Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0x4d8MkgRKY/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Seed Starting Trays for Large Seeds — How to start your vegetable garden seeds with success! For larger seeds such as peas, squash, zucchini, or cucumbers, direct seeding into the garden is often preferable once the danger of frost has passed in your area (check a planting zone map, usually on the back of seed packets). However, if you choose to start them indoors using seed starting trays (like the Ferry-Morse Pro-Hex trays), you'll need to fill the tray cells with a seed-starting mix. The presenter demonstrates a quick method using a cup to scoop and spread the fine, powdery seed-starting mix evenly across the trays. This method helps prevent spillage and creates a relatively uniform base. Once filled, gently pat down the soil to ensure it's level. After filling, lightly water the soil in the trays using a watering can with a fine rose attachment to avoid displacing the soil. Repeat this until the soil is consistently moist, but not waterlogged. This process can be messy, so it's recommended to do it outdoors. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0x4d8MkgRKY 336 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-start-your-vegetable-garden-seeds-with-success-v14606706/postgermination-care-and-hardening-off-c3953130 2026-10-24T04:51:53.813Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0x4d8MkgRKY/hqdefault.jpg Post-Germination Care and Hardening Off — How to start your vegetable garden seeds with success! Once seeds in either peat pellets or trays have sprouted, typically within 7-10 days for tomatoes (check seed packet for specific germination times), it's crucial to remove the clear plastic lid from the greenhouse kit or provide good air circulation if using trays with covers. Leaving the lid on in direct sunlight will create a magnifying glass effect, overheating and killing the delicate seedlings. Avoid overwatering; peat pellets have sufficient initial water, and trays should only be watered sparingly until well after sprouting. Overwatering leads to damping-off disease, promoting mildew, mold, and fungus, which can kill young plants. Instead, check for dryness by lifting the tray (dry trays are light). When introducing sprouted seedlings to sunlight, do so gradually. Start with early morning or late evening sun, or partial shade for 15-30 minutes, slowly increasing exposure over several days. Acclimate (harden off) plants to outdoor weather and sunlight to prevent shocking them, especially when they are about 4-5 inches tall and show established root structures. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0x4d8MkgRKY 358 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/perfect-garden-planting-beds-every-time-with-this-easy-tool-v14606707 2026-10-23T00:26:24.728Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JuZ5HHptOAw/hqdefault.jpg Perfect garden planting beds every time with this easy tool!

This method also helps manage the vine's size and shape. Understand that the main vertical stem is the 'trunk', the horizontal arms extending from the trunk are 'cordons', and the short, woody growths on the cordons that produce fruit are 'fruiting spurs'. Suckers, or unwanted shoots growing directly from the trunk, should be removed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/N9fujTgdqmo 137 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/a-day-working-in-the-vineyardand-whats-up-with-the-new-side-by-side-v14606714/identify-old-growth-and-buds-c3742234 2026-10-22T22:23:07.160Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/N9fujTgdqmo/hqdefault.jpg Identify Old Growth and Buds — A day working in the Vineyard...and what's up with the new Side By Si Examine the fruiting spurs on the cordon.

Beyond pruning the fruiting spurs, systematically remove any growth that is not contributing to optimal fruit production. This includes suckers growing from the main trunk and any branches that are growing on the underside of the cordon, as they are less productive and can become entangled. Also, thin out any overly crowded areas on the cordon, aiming for about the width of your hand between remaining fruiting spurs to ensure adequate space and light for future growth and fruit development. The video emphasizes that pruning back even a 'disaster' of growth will allow for better production. https://www.youtube.com/embed/N9fujTgdqmo 220 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/a-day-working-in-the-vineyardand-whats-up-with-the-new-side-by-side-v14606714/review-and-plan-for-future-pruning-c3742241 2026-10-22T22:23:07.160Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/N9fujTgdqmo/hqdefault.jpg Review and Plan for Future Pruning — A day working in the Vineyard...and what's up with the new Side Once a section or entire vine is pruned, step back and assess your work.

He explains that this area was previously a dense hedgerow, which was cleared last fall using an excavator and a loader crew. This clearing exposed a massive amount of rocks that had accumulated over centuries. The strategy is to use the rear landscape rake to loosen the terrain and pull the rocks into long rows, called 'windrows.' The front landscape rake will then be used as a 'mini bulldozer' to push these windrows into larger, consolidated piles. Finally, a skid loader will scoop up these piles and deposit them in a wooded area not used for pasture. https://www.youtube.com/embed/LXnLxmd4W5w 116 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/shes-tired-of-picking-up-rocks-so-we-put-this-little-tractor-to-work-v14606715/operating-the-ventrac-for-rock-clearing-c3797742 2026-10-23T00:22:01.523Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LXnLxmd4W5w/hqdefault.jpg Operating the Ventrac for Rock Clearing — She's Tired of picking up rocks!

He indicates that some larger rocks will still need to be hand-picked. He plans to continue raking for another estimated four hours to ensure thorough clearing. The next step will be to spread a seed mix including fescue, annual rye grass, and millet. Millet is specifically chosen for its heat and drought tolerance, which will provide necessary shade for the perennial fescue during the dry summer months, allowing it to establish and eventually take over the pasture. https://www.youtube.com/embed/LXnLxmd4W5w 98 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/being-preparedsimple-food-storage-ideas-v14606716 2026-10-23T00:04:34.510Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RDrEu39PgVU/hqdefault.jpg Being Prepared....simple food storage ideas This project outlines a comprehensive approach to homestead emergency preparedness, focusing on establishing and maintaining essential supplies and resources to ensure self-sufficiency during unforeseen disruptions.

The core of the system is introduced: a quad bike (ATV) with a unique front-mounted apparatus, humorously called a 'cow kicker.' This device is designed to run over the electric fence wire without damaging it or causing a short, allowing for quick and easy repositioning of the fence line. The electric fence itself uses 12-gauge high-tensile wire, which carries approximately 8000 volts, providing an effective barrier for the cattle. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wJlA-ltURzI 58 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-time-for-the-farmer-to-make-a-living-on-the-land-v14606725/deploying-the-electric-fence-line-with-quad-bike-c3952129 2026-10-24T04:49:13.407Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wJlA-ltURzI/hqdefault.jpg Deploying the Electric Fence Line with Quad Bike — IT'S TIME FOR THE FARMER TO MAKE A LIVING ON THE To create a new paddock, the operator drives the quad bike along the desired new fence line. The custom 'cow kicker' on the front of the quad bike allows it to effortlessly drive over existing electric fence wires without snagging or breaking them. Temporary plastic T-posts, which have already been placed in the ground, guide the new fence line. The operator then attaches the high-tensile wire to these posts as they move, effectively creating a new section of pasture for the cattle. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wJlA-ltURzI 135 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-time-for-the-farmer-to-make-a-living-on-the-land-v14606725/moving-the-cattle-to-a-new-paddock-c3952133 2026-10-24T04:49:13.407Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wJlA-ltURzI/hqdefault.jpg Moving the Cattle to a New Paddock — IT'S TIME FOR THE FARMER TO MAKE A LIVING ON THE LAND! Once the new fence line is in place and energized, the cattle, accustomed to this routine, follow the moving fence. The previous fence line is then rolled up and removed. This allows the cattle to move into the fresh pasture. The strategy is to move the herd twice a day (morning and night), every day of the year, ensuring they are always on clean ground and have access to fresh forage. This frequent movement prevents overgrazing and evenly distributes manure across the land. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wJlA-ltURzI 125 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-time-for-the-farmer-to-make-a-living-on-the-land-v14606725/philosophy-and-benefits-of-rotational-grazing-c3952134 2026-10-24T04:49:13.407Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wJlA-ltURzI/hqdefault.jpg Philosophy and Benefits of Rotational Grazing — IT'S TIME FOR THE FARMER TO MAKE A LIVING ON THE LAN Greg elaborates on the benefits of this rotational grazing system. He highlights that every manure 'pat' deposited by the cattle is a 'dollar bill' of natural fertilizer, feeding soil microbes and earthworms. This leads to healthier soil, which in turn produces healthier plants, animals, and ultimately, healthier humans. He emphasizes that ruminant animals are herbivores designed to convert sunlight (via grass) into nutrient-dense protein, contrasting this with conventional methods that rely on feeding grain and chemical fertilizers. Keeping animals off mud is crucial for their health and warmth, reducing feed costs and preventing sickness. https://www.youtube.com/embed/wJlA-ltURzI 287 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-time-for-the-farmer-to-make-a-living-on-the-land-v14606725/conclusion-and-call-to-action-c3952135 2026-10-24T04:49:13.407Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wJlA-ltURzI/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion and Call to Action — IT'S TIME FOR THE FARMER TO MAKE A LIVING ON THE LAND!

Drop lines are short tubes that connect directly to the tree taps. Lateral lines are longer, thinner blue tubes running horizontally between trees, to which multiple drop lines attach. Main lines are larger white lines that collect sap from several lateral lines and transport it down the mountain to the sugar house. Connect a fresh drop line to a lateral line using a specialized cutting and crimping tool. This tool simultaneously cuts the lateral line and crimps the drop line into place, ensuring a tight seal for vacuum-assisted sap flow. https://www.youtube.com/embed/mOpPkq_5XmU 102 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-real-maple-syrup-is-made-v14606727/drill-and-insert-tree-taps-c3953145 2026-10-24T04:51:53.945Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mOpPkq_5XmU/hqdefault.jpg Drill and Insert Tree Taps — How Real Maple Syrup is Made Select a healthy maple tree of appropriate size (as per organic farming standards) and pull the connected drop line taut to minimize sags, which can cause freezing issues. Using a cordless drill, carefully drill a hole approximately 3/4 to 1 inch deep into the tree trunk. The hole should be drilled at a slight downward angle to assist gravity in guiding the sap. Immediately after drilling, insert the 'tap' (also called a 'spout') into the fresh hole. Use a hammer to gently tap the spout into place until it is securely seated. Listen for a distinct change in sound, indicating that the tap is firmly set without damaging the tree. https://www.youtube.com/embed/mOpPkq_5XmU 109 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-real-maple-syrup-is-made-v14606727/collect-sap-using-an-extractor-system-c3953149 2026-10-24T04:51:53.945Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mOpPkq_5XmU/hqdefault.jpg Collect Sap Using an Extractor System — How Real Maple Syrup is Made Once taps are installed and lines are connected, sap flows down the main lines to the sugar house. There, it enters an 'extractor' machine, which maintains a vacuum on the lines. This vacuum system draws sap from the trees more effectively, improving yield. The extractor separates the sap from any air in the lines before releasing the sap into large collection tanks. The video shows sap being released from the extractor into a large 5,000-gallon collection tank. https://www.youtube.com/embed/mOpPkq_5XmU 48 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-real-maple-syrup-is-made-v14606727/process-sap-through-reverse-osmosis-and-evaporation-c3953150 2026-10-24T04:51:53.945Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mOpPkq_5XmU/hqdefault.jpg Process Sap through Reverse Osmosis and Evaporation — How Real Maple Syrup is Made After collection, the sap is transferred to a reverse osmosis (RO) machine (La Fendeuse CDL brand). This machine concentrates the sap by removing a significant portion of its water content, increasing the sugar concentration from about 2 Brix to 9 Brix. This step greatly reduces the amount of water that needs to be boiled off, making the evaporation process more efficient. The concentrated sap then enters the 'evaporator' (CDL constant flow evaporator). This large stainless steel machine has multiple pans, through which the sap flows. Heat is applied beneath the pans (via a flame, as shown), causing the water to evaporate and the sugar concentration to steadily increase. The sap progresses through different sections of the evaporator, reaching higher Brix levels in each successive pan. An auto draw-off mechanism, which uses temperature sensors, automatically opens a valve to release finished maple syrup (59 Brix or 66% sugar) when the correct concentration is reached. The finished syrup is collected in large pots. https://www.youtube.com/embed/mOpPkq_5XmU 138 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-real-maple-syrup-is-made-v14606727/bottle-and-label-finished-maple-syrup-c3953154 2026-10-24T04:51:53.945Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mOpPkq_5XmU/hqdefault.jpg Bottle and Label Finished Maple Syrup — How Real Maple Syrup is Made Move the finished maple syrup to a dedicated bottling room.

The presenter explains the importance of providing a warm, dry, and clean environment for newly hatched chicks. He then points out two heat sources: a heat lamp and a Thermo-Poultry brooder, which is designed to mimic a mother hen's warmth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxvs4mmPsik 75 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chickssimple-and-easy-tips-for-a-healthy-flock-v14606731/manage-brooder-environment-c3798648 2026-10-23T00:24:37.500Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hxvs4mmPsik/hqdefault.jpg Manage Brooder Environment — How to raise baby chicks...Simple and easy tips for a healthy flock! Ensure the brooder is adequately insulated with pine shavings, specifically recommending coarse pine shavings to minimize dust, which can harm chicks. The presenter explains that the goal is to maintain approximately 100 degrees Fahrenheit directly under the heat lamp. Chicks will move away from the light if too hot or huddle under it if too cold. He demonstrates checking temperatures using an Etekcity laser pointer thermometer, showing around 121°F directly under the heat lamp and 83-85°F under the Thermo-Poultry brooder. It's crucial to keep the heat lamp stable and away from all feeders, waterers, and shavings to prevent fire hazards. He uses an Irwin clamp to secure the heat lamp setup. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxvs4mmPsik 87 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chickssimple-and-easy-tips-for-a-healthy-flock-v14606731/prepare-water-and-feed-stations-c3798652 2026-10-23T00:24:37.500Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hxvs4mmPsik/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Water and Feed Stations — How to raise baby chicks...Simple and easy tips for a healthy floc Set up clean water and food stations. For the initial water source, use a small mason jar waterer. A crucial tip is to add clean gravel (sourced from a driveway in the video) into the water pan to prevent chicks from accidentally drowning. For feeding, use a long, yellow metal feeder with slots that prevent chicks from scratching out and wasting feed. This feeder is filled with 20% starter-grower feed (24% is typically for game or meat birds). A larger 5-quart hanging waterer and a hanging feeder are also shown as future upgrades for when the chicks grow. Store the feed in a galvanized feed bucket with a lid to keep it protected and close to the brooder for easy access. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxvs4mmPsik 162 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chickssimple-and-easy-tips-for-a-healthy-flock-v14606731/introduce-chicks-to-the-brooder-c3798658 2026-10-23T00:24:37.500Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hxvs4mmPsik/hqdefault.jpg Introduce Chicks to the Brooder — How to raise baby chicks...Simple and easy tips for a healthy floc The presenter travels to the post office to collect a cardboard box containing 50 baby chicks, ordered from Murray McMurray Hatchery. He explains that chicks can survive the 2-day transit without food or water due to absorbing their yolk sac just before hatching. Upon returning, he carefully opens the box, which contains 25 Brown Production Red chicks and 25 White Leghorn chicks. He gently picks up the chicks, two or three at a time, and places them directly under the heat lamp in the brooder. He strongly advises extreme caution during this process, as chicks are very fragile and dropping them can be fatal. He also points out the 'egg tooth' on a chick's beak, a temporary feature used for breaking out of the eggshell. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxvs4mmPsik 193 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chickssimple-and-easy-tips-for-a-healthy-flock-v14606731/acclimate-and-manage-chicks-c3798659 2026-10-23T00:24:37.500Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hxvs4mmPsik/hqdefault.jpg Acclimate and Manage Chicks — How to raise baby chicks...Simple and easy tips for a healthy flock! After placement, the chicks will naturally huddle together under the heat lamp as they warm up from travel. To teach them to drink, gently pick up one chick and dip its beak into the waterer. This chick will then instinctively drink and often teach the other chicks. It is important to cover the brooder with a screen or mesh to protect the chicks from household pets like cats, ensuring their safety. As the pine shavings bedding gets soiled, add new layers on top instead of removing old ones. This creates a deep litter system, which later results in nutrient-rich compost (fertilized sawdust) that can be spread on the farm. Chicks will remain in the brooder for approximately 2-3 weeks if they are laying hens, or 1-2 weeks if they are meat birds, until they are fully feathered out and ready to transition outside. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxvs4mmPsik 100 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chickssimple-and-easy-tips-for-a-healthy-flock-v14606731/bonus-tip-upgrade-waterers-and-feeders-c3798660 2026-10-23T00:24:37.500Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hxvs4mmPsik/hqdefault.jpg Bonus Tip: Upgrade Waterers and Feeders — How to raise baby chicks...Simple and easy tips for a heal As a bonus tip, the presenter advises on upgrading chick equipment. Once chicks have been in the brooder for approximately two weeks, they can be transitioned to larger waterers and feeders as they outgrow the smaller starter models. For very small flocks (e.g., three to four birds), upgrading may not be necessary. It is important to continue using gravel in the initial small waterer for at least the first three to four days to prevent accidental drowning. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hxvs4mmPsik 30 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/non-stop-water-systemno-electricity-no-pump-simple-and-easy-v14606732 2026-10-24T04:48:54.539Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/WSkT2Qat18o/hqdefault.jpg Non Stop water system..no electricity, no pump, simple and easy This project demonstrates how to build and implement a passive, gravity-fed watering system for livestock by siphoning water from a pond to a water trough.

The design, while simple, still serves the purpose of providing shelter, with the roof protecting against elements. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tj1SDxeWxEM 21 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/choosing-the-right-buildings-for-your-farm-on-a-budget-v14606735/main-shop-building-roof-structural-considerations-exterior-c3798526 2026-10-23T00:24:15.640Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tj1SDxeWxEM/hqdefault.jpg Main Shop Building Roof & Structural Considerations (Exterior) — CHOOSING THE RIGHT BUILDINGS FOR YO The video moves to the main shop building, a 26x40 foot structure. The speaker notes a key takeaway: he would have preferred a 36-foot deep by 50-foot wide building for more space, highlighting a common lesson in structural planning. From a roofing perspective, this building includes gutters (essential for diverting water from the foundation) and boxed-in eaves. The tin roof panels are arranged vertically rather than horizontally (the latter being more expensive by about $1000), a decision that impacts aesthetics and potentially water flow on the roof surface. The roll-up garage doors are noted as insulated, a feature that impacts overall building climate control and potentially reduces condensation on the inside of the roof. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tj1SDxeWxEM 40 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/choosing-the-right-buildings-for-your-farm-on-a-budget-v14606735/main-shop-building-interior-advanced-roof-structure-c3798528 2026-10-23T00:24:15.640Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tj1SDxeWxEM/hqdefault.jpg Main Shop Building Interior & Advanced Roof Structure — CHOOSING THE RIGHT BUILDINGS FOR YOUR FARM . Inside the shop, the speaker emphasizes the robustness of the roof's welded truss system, contrasting it with the simple brace system seen in the carports. A welded truss is significantly stronger, offering greater load-bearing capacity (e.g., for heavy snow) and enabling overhead storage, which is a structural advantage. He also notes the building lacks insulation, stating that if he were to do it again, he would add a radiant barrier insulation (R-9 or R-10, described as 'bubble wrap' insulation). This insulation prevents heat transfer in summer and cold in winter, mitigating condensation on the underside of the metal roof panels that could otherwise lead to rust and moisture damage to stored items. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tj1SDxeWxEM 126 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/choosing-the-right-buildings-for-your-farm-on-a-budget-v14606735/general-pros-cons-of-metal-building-roofs-c3798537 2026-10-23T00:24:15.640Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tj1SDxeWxEM/hqdefault.jpg General Pros & Cons of Metal Building Roofs — CHOOSING THE RIGHT BUILDINGS FOR YOUR FARM ...ON A BUD The speaker concludes by reflecting on the general characteristics of steel buildings and their roofs. He notes that the metal components can experience thermal expansion and contraction, causing doors (especially walk-in doors and garage doors) to stick or become hard to open in extreme temperatures. He mentions that while the uninsulated buildings do not offer significant temperature control, they do moderate temperatures somewhat (e.g., 25°F outside might be 30°F inside), which helps prevent extreme freezing. He reiterates the advice to always build larger than initially planned and emphasizes the benefits of insulated doors for better climate control and reduced noise. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tj1SDxeWxEM 57 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/choosing-the-right-buildings-for-your-farm-on-a-budget-v14606735/concluding-thoughts-and-future-recommendations-c3798538 2026-10-23T00:24:15.640Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tj1SDxeWxEM/hqdefault.jpg Concluding Thoughts and Future Recommendations — CHOOSING THE RIGHT BUILDINGS FOR YOUR FARM ...ON A The speaker gives a final recap of the buildings and their costs, reiterating the advice to choose larger, more robust options if budget allows. He emphasizes that while he built on a budget initially, he would now opt for larger, insulated, and structurally stronger buildings (like those with welded trusses) given the benefits. This reinforces that while budget constraints can dictate initial choices, considering long-term needs for space, structural integrity (including roof performance), and climate control is crucial for farm buildings. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tj1SDxeWxEM 98 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/buying-a-skid-steerdid-i-get-burned-v14606736 2026-10-23T00:24:37.531Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0NMZDqXW-Vk/hqdefault.jpg BUYING A SKID STEER...DID I GET BURNED?

The ram pump itself consists of several PVC and metal components. Water from a higher source flows down, building pressure. This pressure slams a waste valve closed, generating a pressure wave. Part of this wave forces water into an inline valve connected to a pressure tank (accumulator), which then pushes the water uphill to the delivery point. The remaining pressure shoots water back towards the source, causing the waste valve to reopen by gravity, and the cycle repeats. The efficiency is a 1:7 ratio, meaning a 1-foot drop can pump water 7 feet vertically. The components shown include a ball valve, pipe nipples, unions, a T-piece, a swing valve, an inline PVC spring valve, and a pressure tank made from a 2-inch PVC pipe with a cap and a bicycle inner tube inside acting as a snifter valve. Teflon tape and PVC cement are used for secure connections. https://www.youtube.com/embed/FrmdGG41NSc 883 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-farm-water-system-like-thischeap-easy-no-v14606738/installing-the-water-source-and-hydrant-c3953490 2026-10-24T04:52:20.729Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FrmdGG41NSc/hqdefault.jpg Installing the Water Source and Hydrant — You've never seen a farm water system like this...cheap, e Unload rolls of 300 feet of 3/4-inch poly pipe from a Kubota UTV. The pipe will be laid out from the pond to the upper pasture where a temporary frost-free hydrant will be installed. The hydrant connects to the poly pipe via a 3/4-inch pipe connector (barbed fitting) at its base. The hydrant operates by a shaft that opens a valve below the frost line when the handle is raised, allowing water to flow. When the handle is lowered, the valve closes, and all water in the pipe drains out through a small gravel pit at the bottom, preventing freezing. For the temporary setup, secure the hydrant to a fence post using zip ties and press-fit the poly pipe into the barbed fitting. For a permanent installation, use Teflon tape on all threaded connections to ensure a watertight seal. https://www.youtube.com/embed/FrmdGG41NSc 302 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-farm-water-system-like-thischeap-easy-no-v14606738/ram-pump-installation-and-priming-c3953491 2026-10-24T04:52:20.729Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FrmdGG41NSc/hqdefault.jpg Ram Pump Installation and Priming — You've never seen a farm water system like this...cheap, easy no A PVC pipe with multiple drilled holes is used as a filter basket to prevent debris from entering the ram pump. It is covered with a mesh material to enhance filtration. Place the filter basket into the water source (pond or creek) to allow water intake while minimizing debris. Next, connect the ram pump assembly. Siphon the water through the drive pipe to ensure it's completely filled and free of air. Any air in the system can prevent the ram pump from initiating its cycle. Once water is flowing from the initial outlet, close its valve. To start the pump, repeatedly push down on the waste valve. This action will build pressure, slamming the waste valve closed, and initiating the pumping cycle. Manual priming may be necessary initially, especially if there isn't sufficient head pressure from the source. Adjust the delivery pipe valve (partially close it) to create back pressure, which helps the pump cycle on its own. https://www.youtube.com/embed/FrmdGG41NSc 494 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-farm-water-system-like-thischeap-easy-no-v14606738/testing-and-final-adjustments-of-the-system-c3953493 2026-10-24T04:52:20.729Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FrmdGG41NSc/hqdefault.jpg Testing and Final Adjustments of the System — You've never seen a farm water system like this...chea With the ram pump successfully operating, check the water flow at the hydrant in the upper pasture. Observe that water is now flowing, demonstrating the ram pump's ability to pump water uphill without external power. The pressure gauge reads approximately 48-50 PSI. Although the flow rate is a trickle (about 0.75 to 1 gallon per minute), it is sufficient to maintain water levels in livestock troughs. For continuous watering, a float valve can be installed in the trough to automatically open and close as water levels change. Alternatively, an overflow valve can be used to return excess water back to the creek, ensuring no water is wasted and the watershed remains unaffected. https://www.youtube.com/embed/FrmdGG41NSc 268 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-next-big-project-for-the-farm-v14606739 2026-10-23T00:26:49.734Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tevqi-Y7JC0/hqdefault.jpg The Next Big Project for the Farm!

Identify areas with mature trees that could be harvested for profit or to clear land for other uses, such as pasture. The speaker mentions cutting approximately 100 acres of timber when they first acquired the farm to clear pastures. It is crucial to contact your local US Forest Service or equivalent state forestry agency. These representatives can evaluate your timber, advise on whether it's ready for harvest, and suggest suitable management plans (e.g., clear-cutting, selective logging, replanting). They can also provide information on forestry programs that might offer tax savings or other benefits. Understanding the timber value is key to making informed decisions about land use and future investments. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GqLkSELu_UM 188 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-nobodys-telling-you-about-making-money-with-land-tax-day-v14606750/harvest-timber-strategically-for-stump-suppression-c3958700 2026-10-24T05:52:57.411Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GqLkSELu_UM/hqdefault.jpg Harvest Timber Strategically for Stump Suppression — WHAT NOBODY'S TELLING YOU ABOUT MAKING MONEY WI When planning timber harvesting, consider the timing to aid in natural weed suppression. The video emphasizes cutting trees during the late season (June to August) when the sap is fully 'up' in the tree. This timing causes the stump to bleed out its sap, effectively killing it and preventing new shoots from growing. This method is a natural way to suppress woody weed regrowth and avoids the use of herbicides. Additionally, when harvesting, avoid clear-cutting all trees; leave some large hardwoods (like white oaks or hickories) for wildlife habitat, future timber needs, or aesthetic value. This also helps maintain some biodiversity and structure on the property. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GqLkSELu_UM 132 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-nobodys-telling-you-about-making-money-with-land-tax-day-v14606750/prepare-and-seed-cleared-land-for-pasture-c3958702 2026-10-24T05:52:57.411Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GqLkSELu_UM/hqdefault.jpg Prepare and Seed Cleared Land for Pasture — WHAT NOBODY'S TELLING YOU ABOUT MAKING MONEY WITH LAND! Once the timber has been harvested and stumps have naturally died back (which may take a couple of years for significant rotting), prepare the cleared areas for pasture. The video refers to these cleared, unmanaged sections as 'cutovers' that can become a 'nasty mess' of weeds. The next step is to clear any remaining debris, pull up rotten stumps, and then smooth out the land. The speaker mentions using a TR3 rake for this purpose. After preparation, seed the area with appropriate pasture grasses. Establishing a healthy, dense pasture acts as an effective cover crop, outcompeting undesirable weeds and preventing their growth, while also contributing to soil fertility and preventing erosion. This transforms previously forested, or overgrown, areas into productive grazing or hay land. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GqLkSELu_UM 77 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-nobodys-telling-you-about-making-money-with-land-tax-day-v14606750/replant-pine-trees-for-future-income-and-land-management-c3958703 2026-10-24T05:52:57.411Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GqLkSELu_UM/hqdefault.jpg Replant Pine Trees for Future Income and Land Management — WHAT NOBODY'S TELLING YOU ABOUT MAKING MO In areas where you don't intend to establish pasture, replant trees to ensure future timber income and to maintain a productive forest. The video shows replanting Loblolly pine trees as bare-root seedlings. These young trees, starting small, will grow to form a new forest. This practice is essential for sustainable forestry and provides a long-term 'cover crop' in a broader sense, as the growing trees will eventually shade out and outcompete many undesirable weeds. The speaker notes that these trees will be ready for harvest in 30-35 years, providing a retirement fund or income for future generations. Growth rates depend on factors like soil nutrient content, sunlight, and rainfall. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GqLkSELu_UM 34 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-nobodys-telling-you-about-making-money-with-land-tax-day-v14606750/optimize-land-use-and-explore-additional-income-streams-c3958704 2026-10-24T05:52:57.411Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GqLkSELu_UM/hqdefault.jpg Optimize Land Use and Explore Additional Income Streams — WHAT NOBODY'S TELLING YOU ABOUT MAKING MON Beyond timber and pasture, continuously evaluate your land for other income-generating opportunities. The video briefly mentions hunting leases as a way to make money from your land 'without lifting a finger.' Companies like 'Basecamp Leasing' (linked in the video description) can help connect landowners with hunters. Always use every square inch of your land to its 'maximum productive capacity' and consider what's best for the environment, your family's future, and your financial goals.

Electric Chainsaw...Worth the extra Money? You de After all cutting tests, Josh removes his safety gear. He reflects on his initial experience with the battery-powered MSA 140 C, acknowledging that its previous struggles were due to his own improper technique (forcing the saw) rather than inherent weakness. He concludes that both chainsaws are effective for their specific applications. The MSA 140 C is highlighted as a great, low-maintenance option for homeowners, residential tasks, and light clearing due to its quiet operation and lack of fuel-related issues common with gas carburetors. The MS 170, with its greater power, remains suitable for more demanding jobs. He notes the price difference (gas MS 170 around $179 versus battery MSA 140 C with accessories around $400) but emphasizes the long-term benefits of the battery model, such as no fuel costs or winterization. He anticipates future comparisons with other battery chainsaw brands like Milwaukee and Makita. https://www.youtube.com/embed/3k0V3-NVh8E 224 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-cattle-callherding-up-our-new-cattle-on-the-farm-v14606754 2026-10-23T00:26:24.870Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/azzXUZMwwdI/hqdefault.jpg The Cattle Call...herding up our new cattle on the farm!

Once all lug nuts are removed, carefully pull the extremely heavy wheel off the axle and roll it aside to clear the workspace. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1hQ5R4ae_Pk 147 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/whats-wrong-with-my-tractor-v14606755/clean-and-inspect-differential-housing-c3959512 2026-10-24T07:05:25.818Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1hQ5R4ae_Pk/hqdefault.jpg Clean and Inspect Differential Housing — What's wrong with my TRACTOR! After removing the wheel, focus on the exposed differential housing. Use a wire brush attachment on a drill to clean off accumulated dirt, rust, and grime from the housing and bolts. Pay close attention to the large bolts that secure the housing sections together. Note the significant wobble in the housing, confirming an internal issue. Also, identify a missing bolt on the underside of the housing, which could be contributing to the instability or indicating previous damage. The cleaning prepares the housing for further disassembly. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1hQ5R4ae_Pk 133 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/whats-wrong-with-my-tractor-v14606755/disassemble-outer-differential-housing-section-c3959517 2026-10-24T07:05:25.818Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1hQ5R4ae_Pk/hqdefault.jpg Disassemble Outer Differential Housing Section — What's wrong with my TRACTOR! Using the same DeWalt impact driver and socket, remove all the bolts that secure the outer section of the differential housing.

He also explains auction terminology related to a cow's age: 'aged' (1-9 years), 'full mouth' (over 9-10 years, teeth worn), 'broken mouth' (in between), and 'smooth mouth' (teeth completely ground down). The age is determined by veterinarians based on the wear of the cow's teeth. Some cows are 'preg-checked' (confirmed pregnant), while others, like theirs, might be pregnant again, which is considered a bonus. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Id7eAxCPSlY 127 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/new-tractor-technology-v14606761 2026-10-23T00:22:38.826Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/InLNDY9KjTM/hqdefault.jpg NEW Tractor Technology!

The host drives the Ventrac 4500Y into the red front loader attachment. He highlights a key feature of the Ventrac: its belt drive system for front implements. This system powers a self-contained hydraulic tank located within the loader itself, meaning the loader's hydraulics do not mix with or contaminate the tractor's main hydraulic fluid. To attach the loader, he pulls the Ventrac into position, hooks up the belt, and then secures the loader by flipping down and tightening a tab on each side. Finally, he engages the PTO (Power Take-Off) to activate the loader's hydraulic system, making it ready for operation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4VwbjBENKGY 101 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-equipment-fun-v14606762/transporting-tractors-to-manure-piles-c3800206 2026-10-23T00:26:24.985Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4VwbjBENKGY/hqdefault.jpg Transporting Tractors to Manure Piles — FARM EQUIPMENT FUN! The host outlines the plan for manure distribution: there are two large piles of manure on the property. One is in the 'upper garden area,' intended for growing crops like corn and squash. The other is located at the top of a hill. The Ventrac will be used to load manure from the top pile into the spreader, and the John Deere tractor will be used to pull the manure spreader. He then proceeds to drive the John Deere tractor to the location of the manure spreader, while the Ventrac is presumably driven to the manure pile. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4VwbjBENKGY 58 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-equipment-fun-v14606762/attaching-manure-spreader-to-tractor-c3800207 2026-10-23T00:26:24.985Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4VwbjBENKGY/hqdefault.jpg Attaching Manure Spreader to Tractor — FARM EQUIPMENT FUN! The host attaches the ABI Classic Spreader to the John Deere 5065E tractor. This involves two main connections: first, the PTO (Power Take-Off) shaft is connected to power the spreader's internal mechanisms, and second, a hydraulic hose is connected to control the rakers inside the spreader. He notes that the spreader has two hydraulic hookups; one is for the rakers (which push manure to the rear), and the other is for an optional gate, which he initially doesn't connect. After making the connections, the jack from the spreader is removed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4VwbjBENKGY 58 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-equipment-fun-v14606762/manure-spreader-mechanics-and-tips-c3800208 2026-10-23T00:26:24.985Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4VwbjBENKGY/hqdefault.jpg Manure Spreader Mechanics and Tips — FARM EQUIPMENT FUN! The host elaborates on how the ABI Classic Spreader functions. The PTO shaft, once engaged, drives the 'flappers' or 'smackers' located at the rear of the spreader, which are responsible for scattering the manure across the field. The hydraulic line, which he connected in the previous step, controls the rakers inside the spreader that move the manure towards these flappers. He estimates that it will take him about 1.5 hours to load the spreader with manure and approximately 15 minutes to spread it. He plans to focus on areas of the field with poor soil nutrition. A crucial tip he provides is to avoid spreading manure on a windy day, as it can scatter the material unevenly and create unpleasant conditions. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4VwbjBENKGY 66 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-equipment-fun-v14606762/loading-manure-into-spreader-c3800209 2026-10-23T00:26:24.985Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4VwbjBENKGY/hqdefault.jpg Loading Manure into Spreader — FARM EQUIPMENT FUN! The host commences loading manure from a large pile into the ABI Classic Spreader. He uses the Ventrac 4500Y, equipped with its front loader, to scoop up the manure and dump it into the spreader. Initially, he realizes that to efficiently load the entire spreader, he needs to load both the front and rear sections separately due to not having connected the hydraulic gate. He then decides to connect the second hydraulic line from the tractor's front loader system (which has a remote hydraulic output) to the spreader's gate. This allows him to open and close the gate, facilitating easier and more complete loading of the manure into the spreader. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4VwbjBENKGY no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-equipment-fun-v14606762/spreading-manure-across-field-c3800210 2026-10-23T00:26:24.985Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4VwbjBENKGY/hqdefault.jpg Spreading Manure Across Field — FARM EQUIPMENT FUN!

Before making the first cuts, inspect the ham to understand its anatomy and identify the best places to begin slicing. The ham's exterior is firm and covered with various colors of mold (green, yellow, white). The host notes that the skin side is visible, and the meat was salted when first put in. Identify key areas such as where the foot, loin, belly, and shoulder blade (scapula) were located. The goal is to maximize the yield of desirable meat while minimizing cuts into bone or undesirable rancid fat. Discuss the different muscle groups and fascia, specifically highlighting the 'copa' (capicola) muscle, which is considered a prized cut in Italian dry-curing. To begin, position the ham for stability. Make a flat cut along one side, allowing the ham to rest securely on the cutting surface. https://www.youtube.com/embed/92fLjpieLnM 171 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/cutting-into-a-traditionaly-cured-country-ham-after-22-months-v14606764/initial-trimming-and-fat-removal-c3958718 2026-10-24T05:52:57.443Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/92fLjpieLnM/hqdefault.jpg Initial Trimming and Fat Removal — Cutting into a Traditionaly Cured Country Ham after 22 months! Using a very sharp, flexible slicing knife, begin trimming the ham. The first objective is to remove the outer layer of yellow, rancid fat and mold. This yellow fat is not necessarily bad, but it can impart a metallic taste if left on, especially if exposed to UV light during curing. Continuously shave thin slices of the outer layer until you reach the cleaner, white and pink fat and meat underneath. This process of trimming is important for achieving the desired flavor and presentation of the cured ham. As you get deeper, you'll start to reveal the beautiful marbling and color of the aged meat. https://www.youtube.com/embed/92fLjpieLnM 162 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/cutting-into-a-traditionaly-cured-country-ham-after-22-months-v14606764/first-taste-and-flavor-assessment-c3958719 2026-10-24T05:52:57.443Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/92fLjpieLnM/hqdefault.jpg First Taste and Flavor Assessment — Cutting into a Traditionaly Cured Country Ham after 22 months! After successfully trimming the exterior, the host tastes a small piece of the freshly exposed fat and meat. He notes that the first bite was not as salty or rich as expected because it was mainly fat from the top layer. He explains that as they slice further into the ham, the flavor will intensify. He emphasizes that this is a delicacy that cannot be found elsewhere and encourages enjoying it in tiny amounts, letting it melt on the tongue. He confirms that the salt level is just right, and it's not 'salt pork.' The fat is described as 'silky' and the taste is 'delicious.'

He displays examples of existing logs that have been producing mushrooms for two years. He shows a bag of 'Mojo Plugs' (shiitake mushroom plug spawn) and explains that these will be inserted into freshly cut logs. He emphasizes that the logs should be hardwood (maple, white oak, or red oak) and have been cut for about three years. He also mentions the benefit of dehydrating harvested mushrooms for long-term storage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hzzrw3uOco8 140 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-so-easy-how-to-make-shiitake-mushroom-logs-v14606766/select-and-cut-hardwood-logs-c3958017 2026-10-24T05:52:07.976Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hzzrw3uOco8/hqdefault.jpg Select and Cut Hardwood Logs — It's So Easy! How to make Shiitake Mushroom Logs! The first task is to cut down suitable hardwood trees. The presenter recommends using a lightweight chainsaw, like the Stihl MS 170, for home use. He puts on safety gear, including ear protection and a face shield. He looks for trees approximately 6 inches in diameter (about the size of a person's arm or mid-thigh), with relatively smooth bark. He identifies a 'scraggly' red oak tree that is undesirably curved and will be cut down. He explains that smooth bark is preferred as it makes it easier to hammer in the mushroom plugs. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hzzrw3uOco8 164 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-so-easy-how-to-make-shiitake-mushroom-logs-v14606766/drill-holes-in-logs-for-plugs-c3958019 2026-10-24T05:52:07.976Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hzzrw3uOco8/hqdefault.jpg Drill Holes in Logs for Plugs — It's So Easy! How to make Shiitake Mushroom Logs! With the logs prepared, the next step is to drill holes for the mushroom plugs. The logs are laid out on a flat surface, such as the back of a Kubota utility vehicle. A cordless drill with a 7/16-inch drill bit is used. To ensure consistent depth, electrical tape is wrapped around the drill bit to mark the desired depth (plug length plus a quarter-inch). Holes are drilled approximately every 6 inches along the logs. Three rows of holes are made per log, rotating the log about a third of the way after each row to create a staggered pattern. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hzzrw3uOco8 124 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-so-easy-how-to-make-shiitake-mushroom-logs-v14606766/insert-and-tap-mushroom-plugs-c3958028 2026-10-24T05:52:07.976Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hzzrw3uOco8/hqdefault.jpg Insert and Tap Mushroom Plugs — It's So Easy! How to make Shiitake Mushroom Logs! After drilling, insert the mushroom plugs into each hole. Gently tap the plugs with a rubber mallet until they are fully seated, about a quarter-inch deeper than the bark surface. Be careful when rotating the log to avoid dislodging already inserted plugs. The presenter emphasizes that logs of this size are preferred because they are heavy enough to retain moisture but still manageable for moving, especially for future soaking. He mentions that the process is simple and can be quite soothing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/hzzrw3uOco8 165 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-so-easy-how-to-make-shiitake-mushroom-logs-v14606766/seal-plugs-with-wax-and-placement-advice-c3958030 2026-10-24T05:52:07.976Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hzzrw3uOco8/hqdefault.jpg Seal Plugs with Wax and Placement Advice — It's So Easy! How to make Shiitake Mushroom Logs! The final step in the inoculation process is to seal the mushroom plugs with melted wax. The logs are brought to a location where the waxing can be done (e.g., near the house). A double boiler system is used to melt the wax safely, consisting of a smaller pot placed inside a larger pot of boiling water. A cheap paintbrush is used to dab the melted wax directly over each plug, ensuring the hole is completely sealed. This prevents contamination and moisture loss. The presenter also discusses proper log placement in a shady, cool, and moist area (like the edge of woods or near a garden) and explains that logs will be ready for soaking and fruiting in about 1 to 1.5 years (around spring). https://www.youtube.com/embed/hzzrw3uOco8 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/upgrading-the-chicken-coop-with-worlds-first-automatic-locking-door-v14606767 2026-10-24T05:53:22.111Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zAb45WuiS9Q/hqdefault.jpg Upgrading the Chicken Coop with Worlds First Automatic Locking Door!

If present, remove any wheel spacers that were used with the old tires, as the new turf tires may not require them. Mount the new turf tire onto the axle, ensuring it's properly seated. Hand-tighten the lug nuts, then lower the tractor from the jack stands and use a torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts to the manufacturer's specified torque. Repeat this process for the other rear tire. https://www.youtube.com/embed/serpgs_w3bE 429 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/8-hours-of-mechanic-work-on-our-tractor-v14606769/functionality-test-final-adjustments-c3957651 2026-10-24T05:51:22.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/serpgs_w3bE/hqdefault.jpg Functionality Test & Final Adjustments — 8 hours of mechanic work on our tractor!

The presenter outlines the various seeds to be used: Timothy, Fescue, Annual Ryegrass, and Ladino Clover. He explains that clover helps fix nitrogen in the soil, reducing the need for external nitrogen loads and promoting better root establishment. Tillage radishes are used to loosen compacted soil, growing deep roots up to 12-15 inches, and bring nutrients to the surface. Areas with green patches indicate previous clover growth, while dry-looking patches show a need for nitrogen and nutrients. The overall goal is to build healthy soil across the farm. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Bescu3y1AG8 69 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-till-drilling-on-the-farmwhat-you-need-to-know-v14606777/understand-seed-drill-mechanics-and-efficiency-c3957681 2026-10-24T05:51:22.795Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Bescu3y1AG8/hqdefault.jpg Understand Seed Drill Mechanics and Efficiency — NO TILL DRILLING ON THE FARM....What you need to kn The seed drill's hitching mechanism is demonstrated. It connects to the tractor's tow bar using a tongue and has two hydraulic hookups. These hydraulic lines connect to a hydraulic cylinder on the seed drill, which is responsible for raising and lowering the entire machine. The seed drill is also equipped with a Stemco acre meter (Longview, Texas), which counts the acres covered based on the rotation of a ground-contact wheel. The rental cost is $15 per acre. The presenter highlights the efficiency of the seed drill, stating it uses about 23 pounds of fescue seed per acre, compared to three times that amount with a broadcast spreader, while also ensuring better germination. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Bescu3y1AG8 98 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-till-drilling-on-the-farmwhat-you-need-to-know-v14606777/load-seed-and-set-application-rate-c3957682 2026-10-24T05:51:22.795Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Bescu3y1AG8/hqdefault.jpg Load Seed and Set Application Rate — NO TILL DRILLING ON THE FARM....What you need to know! Access the seed drill's hoppers by stepping up onto the machine. The first hopper contains fescue grass seed. Consult the 'Chart for Drilling Grain in Pounds Per Acre' located on the machine, which indicates the correct pointer setting for various seeds and desired application rates. For fescue at 23 pounds per acre, the chart specifies a setting of '8'. The middle hopper holds tillage radish, and the third, smaller hopper contains timothy seed. Seeds drop from the hoppers into visible plastic troughs, then through flexible tubes, and finally into the ground after the soil has been opened by two disks. A roller then closes the soil over the seed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Bescu3y1AG8 108 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-till-drilling-on-the-farmwhat-you-need-to-know-v14606777/prepare-seed-drill-for-field-operation-c3957684 2026-10-24T05:51:22.795Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Bescu3y1AG8/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Seed Drill for Field Operation — NO TILL DRILLING ON THE FARM....What you need to know! To allow the seed drill to engage with the ground for seeding, first raise the machine using the tractor's hydraulic arm. Then, locate and remove the safety block (a small red block held by a pin) that prevents the hydraulic cylinder from fully extending while in transit on the road. This block keeps the disks out of contact with the road. Once the block is removed, the hydraulic cylinder can fully operate, allowing the seed drill's disks to lower into the ground. This also ensures that the seed metering mechanism, which is driven by a ground-contact wheel, only activates when the machine is in position to plant. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Bescu3y1AG8 62 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-till-drilling-on-the-farmwhat-you-need-to-know-v14606777/drill-seed-and-spread-lime-c3957685 2026-10-24T05:51:22.795Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Bescu3y1AG8/hqdefault.jpg Drill Seed and Spread Lime — NO TILL DRILLING ON THE FARM....What you need to know!

The wire is attached at the top by running over a brace pin and at the bottom by being secured with a staple. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 78 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/understand-post-types-and-wire-specifications-c3957745 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Understand Post Types and Wire Specifications — Fence braces explained...a look at different fencing Luke discusses the type of posts used, noting that cylinder posts have a consistent diameter throughout, unlike tapered posts. He mentions that if tapered posts were used, the smaller end would be driven into the ground for driving, or the larger end for digging. He then explains the specifications of the Tornado Titan 13-48-12 wire: '13' refers to 13 line wires, '48' indicates 48 inches of total height, and '12' signifies 12-inch stay spacing. He demonstrates the 'Titan knot' which is effective for various livestock like cattle, goats, and horses. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 35 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/analyze-modified-hbrace-c3957748 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Analyze Modified H-Brace — Fence braces explained...a look at different fencing ideas! Luke examines a second H-brace built by Southerland Fencing and Cox Fencing. This brace is structurally similar to the first, using 12.5 gauge high-tensile wire in a figure-8 pattern. However, instead of a crimp sleeve, the wire is wrapped to secure the tensioner, which is an acceptable alternative. Additionally, staples are used on both sides of the vertical post to prevent the brace wire from digging into the wood and to facilitate easier sliding when installed. The brace wire runs from the top of one post to the bottom of the other to counteract the pulling force of the fence. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 115 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/analyze-mortise-and-tenon-brace-with-deadman-c3957749 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Analyze Mortise and Tenon Brace with Deadman — Fence braces explained...a look at different fencing This segment features a unique brace design by Sloop Fence and Langley Fencing, known as a 'deadman' brace. The brace post has a mortise (square cut-out) into which the strut is inserted, planed to fit tightly. The bottom end of the strut, called the 'deadman' or 'block end,' is a 9-foot post with about a foot cut off, leaving 8 feet buried horizontally in the ground. This horizontal buried post acts as a robust anchor, especially effective in soils prone to frost heave, preventing the main posts from lifting out of the ground. This method is noted as uncommon but highly functional. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 54 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/analyze-steel-pipe-brace-with-unique-wire-wrapping-c3957752 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Analyze Steel Pipe Brace with Unique Wire Wrapping — Fence braces explained...a look at different fe Luke describes a steel pipe brace built by Jake Wilson of Wilson Fence. This brace uses a unique wire wrapping technique instead of traditional tensioners. The brace wire is stacked with two strands over two strands in a specific pattern around the brace pin, which Jake believes provides more power. He hard staples only the ends of the brace wire to the brace pin for security, and then uses a separate tool (referred to as 'wraps') to drive down the stacked wires, tightening the brace. This design also lowers the angle of the brace wire, which helps prevent the strainer post from popping out of the ground and reduces the chance of animal entrapment by minimizing criss-crossing wires at the lower end. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 75 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/analyze-second-welded-steel-pipe-brace-c3957753 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Analyze Second Welded Steel Pipe Brace — Fence braces explained...a look at different fencing ideas! Luke showcases a second steel pipe brace, noting that the competitors were given the choice between steel pipe and timber posts. This team (Langley and Sloop Fencing) chose galvanized steel pipe. The fence uses '8-42-6 Titan' wire from Tornado, indicating 8 line wires, 42 inches in height, and 6-inch stay spacing. It also features two strands of barbed wire on top and one plain strand underneath. The strainer post is a 4-inch by 10-foot pipe, the strut is a 2.5-inch by 10-foot pipe, and the deadman is a 3-inch by 6-foot pipe driven flush to the ground. All pipe connections are coped and welded for strength and durability. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 59 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/analyze-hillside-triple-hbrace-c3957754 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Analyze Hillside Triple H-Brace — Fence braces explained...a look at different fencing ideas! Luke highlights a unique H-brace constructed by Southerland Fencing and Cox Fencing, specifically designed for use on sloped terrain. This brace is built into a hillside, using angled struts to prevent the posts from being pulled out of the ground due to the tension of the wire and gravity. The design essentially creates a 'hold-down' system, pushing the center post downwards into the ground. It's an interesting and functional solution for uneven landscapes, reflecting expertise in mountain fencing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 46 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/analyze-final-steel-pipe-brace-wire-flexibility-c3957755 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Analyze Final Steel Pipe Brace & Wire Flexibility — Fence braces explained...a look at different fen Luke discusses a final steel pipe brace from Tyler Russell of Ty's Custom Fencing. He praises Tyler's work, especially considering he's only been in the business for nine months. The fence uses Tornado Titan 8-42-6 wire, featuring a fixed knot for a solid vertical stay, allowing for wider post spacing. He then demonstrates the flexibility of the wire ties used, called 'Easy Post Twist Ties'. These ties allow the wire to slide horizontally along the post if impacted, preventing the fence from breaking, but prevent vertical movement. This highlights the importance of not hard-stapling wires to allow for dynamic response to impacts. https://www.youtube.com/embed/UGWjV8trw5A 106 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fence-braces-explaineda-look-at-different-fencing-ideas-v14606781/conclusion-and-future-plans-c3957756 2026-10-24T05:51:29.756Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UGWjV8trw5A/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion and Future Plans — Fence braces explained...a look at different fencing ideas!

Day 2 Farm Fencing Competitio The host explains the challenge of building a fence that transitions from flat ground to a steep hillside. This transition puts significant stress on the corner posts, which tend to pull out of the ground. He shows different methods contractors use to keep these posts securely in place. Some use traditional bracing (e.g., wooden cross-braces), while others might drive additional posts into the ground next to the main posts to act as anchors. The video then shows teams continuing to install posts, including the use of a chainsaw to cut a wooden post to size and the assembly of a wooden brace between posts. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iAlBzLncn00 164 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-on-steep-hills-day-2-farm-fencing-competition-v14606782/hightensile-termination-knot-demonstration-c3957366 2026-10-24T05:50:55.451Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iAlBzLncn00/hqdefault.jpg High-Tensile Termination Knot Demonstration — Fencing on STEEP HILLS! Day 2 Farm Fencing Competition Jake Wilson (Wilson Fencing) demonstrates tying a high-tensile termination knot on a wooden post. First, bring the line wire around the post. Take the stripped running end of the wire over the unstripped line wire, then push it back towards the center of the post, creating a sharp bend down. This makes a handle to pull. The running end is then wrapped around the main line wire twice, creating two points of friction. For a third point of friction, wrap it back over the woven wire end and then around the line wire again. Finally, bend the running end at a 90-degree angle and rotate it clockwise until it snaps off, leaving no sharp edges. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iAlBzLncn00 192 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-on-steep-hills-day-2-farm-fencing-competition-v14606782/judging-criteria-for-metal-post-fences-c3957367 2026-10-24T05:50:55.451Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iAlBzLncn00/hqdefault.jpg Judging Criteria for Metal Post Fences — Fencing on STEEP HILLS! Day 2 Farm Fencing Competition!! Axel Borris (FenceFast) outlines the judging criteria for metal post fences. He uses a 'story stick' with marked wire heights to check if the bottom wire is 3 inches from the ground, followed by 3-inch and 2-inch spacing for the mesh and barbed wire, and that the top wire is at the top of the post. He notes that the displayed metal fence is 'bang on' with the required specifications. He also checks for proper wire tension using a built-in tension gauge on a Strainrite wire stretcher. Judges ensure the mesh is evenly tight, that wire ties are correct (two at the bottom, one in the middle, two at the top, and staggering in between), and that there are no sharp edges. For one post, he points out that the bottom of the fence was not within parameters, needing to be 3-4 inches lower into the ground, which would result in deductions. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iAlBzLncn00 127 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-on-steep-hills-day-2-farm-fencing-competition-v14606782/judging-criteria-for-wood-post-fences-c3957368 2026-10-24T05:50:55.451Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iAlBzLncn00/hqdefault.jpg Judging Criteria for Wood Post Fences — Fencing on STEEP HILLS! Day 2 Farm Fencing Competition!! Axel Borris continues to explain the judging for wood post fences, highlighting the difference in how they are constructed. Staples are used to attach the woven wire to wooden posts. Judges look for stapling at the top and bottom of the mesh, the first two bottom wires, and then every other wire staggered through the middle. They also check the neatness of the knotting (for barbed wire) and that all wire ties are correct and neatly done. An example shows a wooden fence post where a brace was installed without being driven deep enough into the ground, which would result in deductions. The judge reiterates that while making a good fence is important, following the specified parameters is also crucial for competition scoring. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iAlBzLncn00 64 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-on-steep-hills-day-2-farm-fencing-competition-v14606782/awards-ceremony-and-recognition-c3957369 2026-10-24T05:50:55.451Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iAlBzLncn00/hqdefault.jpg Awards Ceremony and Recognition — Fencing on STEEP HILLS!

Making homemade feeders and waterers! To build a PVC gutter-style waterer, begin by taking a length of 4-inch PVC pipe and cutting it in half lengthwise to form a trough. This can be done with a table saw or circular saw with appropriate safety precautions. Next, create two triangular wooden end caps that fit snugly into the ends of the PVC trough. Secure these wooden ends to the trough using screws. Now, position a 1-inch PVC pipe horizontally above the trough; this pipe will act as the water supply. Drill holes into the bottom of the 1-inch pipe and install nipple waterers, ensuring they are positioned to drip into the newly created trough. This trough should be mounted at a slight angle to allow for water flow and drainage. The trough serves as a drinking surface, while the nipples prevent direct water contamination. https://www.youtube.com/embed/m-NzdVmFBzo 105 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/live-now-making-homemade-feeders-and-waterers-v14606788/create-pvc-jtrap-waterer-c3958733 2026-10-24T05:52:57.496Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m-NzdVmFBzo/hqdefault.jpg Create PVC J-Trap Waterer — Live now!

Making homemade feeders and waterers! To automate your chicken waterer system, install a float valve into a large water reservoir, such as a 55-gallon barrel or a large 7-gallon bucket. The float valve works much like the mechanism in a toilet tank, opening to refill when the water level drops and closing when it reaches the set level. Connect this float valve to a continuous water source, such as a garden hose, a rain barrel, or a well pump. Run a PVC pipe from the bottom of this reservoir to your selected chicken waterer systems (nipples, cups, or trough). Ensure all pipe connections are sealed with PVC cement and threaded connections use Teflon tape to prevent leaks. This setup ensures a constant, automatic water supply for your flock. https://www.youtube.com/embed/m-NzdVmFBzo 70 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/live-now-making-homemade-feeders-and-waterers-v14606788/final-installation-customization-and-maintenance-c3958736 2026-10-24T05:52:57.496Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m-NzdVmFBzo/hqdefault.jpg Final Installation, Customization, and Maintenance — Live now! Making homemade feeders and waterers! Once your chosen chicken waterer systems are constructed and the automatic refill mechanism (if used) is in place, it's time for final deployment. Position the waterers in a safe and accessible location within your chicken coop or run. Ensure they are mounted at a suitable height for your chickens – typically at chicken back-height for nipples, and slightly above head height for cups. Double-check all connections for leaks. Consider providing a combination of nipple and cup waterers, especially if you have chickens of different ages or are transitioning them to a new system. Regularly inspect the waterers for cleanliness, clogs, or algae buildup, and clean them as needed to maintain poultry health. This system should significantly reduce the time and effort spent on daily watering chores. https://www.youtube.com/embed/m-NzdVmFBzo 389 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/good-deeds-for-neighborsventrac-driveway-restoration-you-have-to-see-v14606789 2026-10-23T00:24:37.571Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1gF189-Unjw/hqdefault.jpg Good deeds for neighbors...Ventrac Driveway restoration you have to see to believe!

The presenter explains that the tractor is articulated, meaning it bends in the middle for superior maneuverability, with all eight wheels driving for excellent traction on challenging terrain like steep embankments. The Power Rake, driven by hydraulics, features a rotating drum with hardened teeth to grind up old gravel, grass, and other vegetation. It has adjustable depth (set to approximately 2 inches in this demonstration) and a control lever to change the rotation direction (forward or backward) of the drum, allowing for different material movement. This versatile attachment is suitable for various landscaping tasks such as seedbed preparation, garden prep, new lawn establishment, and driveway renovation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1gF189-Unjw 195 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/good-deeds-for-neighborsventrac-driveway-restoration-you-have-to-see-v14606789/power-rake-operation-c3798644 2026-10-23T00:24:37.571Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1gF189-Unjw/hqdefault.jpg Power Rake Operation — Good deeds for neighbors...Ventrac Driveway restoration you have to see to be The Power Rake attachment is engaged and used to break up the grass and mix it with the existing gravel on the driveway. The operator drives the Ventrac tractor forward and backward over the driveway, allowing the rotating drum of the Power Rake to churn the surface. The Power Rake is adjusted to a depth of about 2 inches. Driving forward, it collects less material, while backing up, it digs deeper and processes more material, effectively removing the overgrown grass and bringing up the buried gravel. This process creates 'windrows' (ridges) of mixed gravel and grass along the path. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1gF189-Unjw 155 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/good-deeds-for-neighborsventrac-driveway-restoration-you-have-to-see-v14606789/leveling-with-the-landscape-rake-c3798645 2026-10-23T00:24:37.571Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1gF189-Unjw/hqdefault.jpg Leveling with the Landscape Rake — Good deeds for neighbors...Ventrac Driveway restoration you have After the Power Rake has turned up the surface and created windrows, the Power Rake attachment is removed and replaced with a Landscape Rake.

His father then uses a front-end loader attached to a Massey Ferguson 383 tractor to lift the tongue of the Batwing Bushhog. This allows Josh to attach the bush hog to his John Deere tractor. The Batwing Bushhog is noted as being old, rusty, and in need of restoration, but desirable due to its hydraulic pump blades, allowing it to be run by a lower horsepower tractor. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Op_BKj6nt3U 358 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/bat-wing-mower-for-free-rusty-and-crusty-iron-rescue-part-1-getting-v14606808/first-loading-attempt-and-obstacles-c3958154 2026-10-24T05:52:19.420Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Op_BKj6nt3U/hqdefault.jpg First Loading Attempt and Obstacles — Bat Wing Mower For Free! Rusty and Crusty Iron Rescue PART 1! After successfully hitching the Batwing Bushhog to the John Deere tractor, a test run of loading the bush hog onto the trailer reveals that the combined length of the tractor and bush hog is too long for the trailer. During the attempt, a hydraulic line on the bush hog bursts due to contact with the trailer's ramps. The initial plan to transport both simultaneously is abandoned. The solution is to put pins in the wings of the bush hog to raise them and reduce its width, but the overall length remains an issue. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Op_BKj6nt3U 124 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/bat-wing-mower-for-free-rusty-and-crusty-iron-rescue-part-1-getting-v14606808/second-loading-attempt-and-bushhog-reevaluation-c3958157 2026-10-24T05:52:19.420Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Op_BKj6nt3U/hqdefault.jpg Second Loading Attempt and Bushhog Re-evaluation — Bat Wing Mower For Free! Rusty and Crusty Iron Re With the prior attempt failing, the new plan is to transport only the Batwing Bushhog on the trailer first, leaving the John Deere tractor behind. The bush hog is loaded onto the gooseneck trailer, with its wings folded up and secured by pins. Josh's father assists by guiding the bush hog onto the trailer. The bush hog is then driven off the trailer again, because they realize the combine length is too long, and they need to adjust the hitching method to allow the bush hog to be towed behind the truck directly, not on the trailer. This involves a secondary attempt to load it on the trailer. After this second attempt also proves too challenging due to clearance issues and a further damaged hydraulic line from the ramps, they make the decision to unload the bush hog off the trailer completely and use a separate method. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Op_BKj6nt3U 89 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/bat-wing-mower-for-free-rusty-and-crusty-iron-rescue-part-1-getting-v14606808/using-a-bobcat-skid-steer-for-unloading-c3958159 2026-10-24T05:52:19.420Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Op_BKj6nt3U/hqdefault.jpg Using a Bobcat Skid Steer for Unloading — Bat Wing Mower For Free! Rusty and Crusty Iron Rescue PART After previous attempts failed, Josh and his father retrieve a Bobcat skid steer loader, realizing its maneuverability and front-mounted hitch capability will simplify the process. They attach a Titan Attachments bucket-mount hitch to the Bobcat's bucket. This allows the Bobcat to easily connect to the bush hog's tongue. The Bobcat then carefully pulls the Batwing Bushhog off the trailer, maneuvering it effectively to a designated storage spot on the property. This eliminates the need for the tractor to be moved for this specific task and avoids further trailer loading issues. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Op_BKj6nt3U 275 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/swimming-hole-farm-pond-build-ventrac-mini-bulldozer-overflow-seeding-v14606809 2026-10-24T05:50:55.450Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h2-Iv4mtvOc/hqdefault.jpg SWIMMING HOLE FARM POND BUILD VENTRAC MINI BULLDOZER!

OVERFLOW The video introduces the project, which involves seeding a newly built pond bank area approximately three-quarters to one acre in size. The creator highlights the importance of investing in quality materials to prevent erosion and ensure long-term success. He displays the materials: contractor's mix grass seed (80% Tall Fescue/Kentucky 31 Fescue, 20% Millet), Triple 17 fertilizer, and Solu-Cal calcium supplement (a faster-acting alternative to lime for pH adjustment). Millet is chosen for its fast germination and ability to grow in poor conditions, providing quick ground cover, while Fescue is a cool-season grass for sustained growth. The soil's natural pH is around 4-4.2, and the goal is to raise it closer to 7 using Solu-Cal. The creator emphasizes that this initial investment and proper soil preparation are crucial to avoid repeated efforts and problems like erosion. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h2-Iv4mtvOc 45 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/swimming-hole-farm-pond-build-ventrac-mini-bulldozer-overflow-seeding-v14606809/prepare-the-seed-bed-with-a-ventrac-tractor-c3957292 2026-10-24T05:50:55.450Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h2-Iv4mtvOc/hqdefault.jpg Prepare the Seed Bed with a Ventrac Tractor — SWIMMING HOLE FARM POND BUILD VENTRAC MINI BULLDOZER! Utilize a Ventrac tractor equipped with a landscape rake (Terra Rake) to prepare the ground for seeding. The tractor is a 24.8 horsepower articulating model with a Kubota diesel engine. Drive the tractor across the pond banks to smooth out the rough terrain, break up large clumps of dirt, and stir the soil. This process ensures a loose, uncompacted seed bed, which is vital for the grass seed to settle properly and for nutrients (fertilizer and lime) to be absorbed effectively. The landscape rake is designed to be a low-impact machine, minimizing soil compaction while achieving a fine finish. Go over the area multiple times if necessary to achieve the desired soil consistency, similar to a golf course surface. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h2-Iv4mtvOc 27 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/swimming-hole-farm-pond-build-ventrac-mini-bulldozer-overflow-seeding-v14606809/load-materials-and-calibrate-spreader-c3957294 2026-10-24T05:50:55.450Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h2-Iv4mtvOc/hqdefault.jpg Load Materials and Calibrate Spreader — SWIMMING HOLE FARM POND BUILD VENTRAC MINI BULLDOZER!

Before beginning to spread, adjust the settings on the EarthWay broadcast spreader according to the recommendations on the product bags. For Solu-Cal, set the spreader to '25' to raise the soil pH. For the Triple 17 fertilizer, set the spreader to '16' for heavy feeding (8-12% Nitrogen feeds, 5000 sq ft). The contractor's mix grass seed does not have specific spreader settings mentioned, but should be spread first as it is the 'hardest' to spread. The order of application is grass seed first, then Solu-Cal, and finally fertilizer.

Begin by spreading the contractor's mix grass seed across the prepared pond banks using the EarthWay broadcast spreader. Walk in an even pattern to ensure uniform coverage. Since the ground is already tilled and soft, the seed should settle nicely into the soil. After the grass seed, spread the Solu-Cal, followed by the Triple 17 fertilizer. Adjust the spreader settings as specified on each product bag (e.g., '25' for Solu-Cal, '16' for Triple 17 fertilizer). For areas with steeper slopes, apply slightly more fertilizer at the top, as some nutrients will naturally roll downhill with rain. Be prepared for manual labor, including picking up rocks that may surface after grading and during spreading. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h2-Iv4mtvOc 80 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/swimming-hole-farm-pond-build-ventrac-mini-bulldozer-overflow-seeding-v14606809/install-erosion-control-matting-c3957297 2026-10-24T05:50:55.450Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h2-Iv4mtvOc/hqdefault.jpg Install Erosion Control Matting — SWIMMING HOLE FARM POND BUILD VENTRAC MINI BULLDOZER! OVERFLOW SEE Unroll the wood fiber erosion control mats over the newly seeded and amended pond banks, particularly on steeper sloped areas. These mats, which are 8 feet wide and 150 feet long, are designed to protect the seed and soil from erosion while allowing the grass to grow through. Use U-shaped pins to secure the mats to the ground. Push the pins into the ground and step on them to ensure they are firmly in place. This prevents the mats from being lifted by wind or washed away by water. It also helps prevent the new grass from pushing the mats up as it grows. Consider also lightly spreading some grass seed on top of the mats to enhance coverage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h2-Iv4mtvOc 77 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/swimming-hole-farm-pond-build-ventrac-mini-bulldozer-overflow-seeding-v14606809/understand-pond-design-and-overflow-system-c3957302 2026-10-24T05:50:55.450Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/h2-Iv4mtvOc/hqdefault.jpg Understand Pond Design and Overflow System — SWIMMING HOLE FARM POND BUILD VENTRAC MINI BULLDOZER! O Understand the pond's design, which is approximately a half-acre. It features an overflow pipe (a 15-inch corrugated black plastic pipe) that functions as an overflow, not a standpipe, to manage water levels without requiring manual cleaning from inside the pond. Water will flow over this pipe into an old creek bed. A second spillway is designed to handle excess water in case of extreme rainfall (like a hurricane), directing water around a tree and then back into the creek bed. This multi-layered overflow system is a 'catch pond' design, intended to slow down water flow and prevent erosion problems that had previously affected the property, where a ditch would fill up and cause the road to flood frequently. https://www.youtube.com/embed/h2-Iv4mtvOc 147 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/now-the-ugliest-part-of-the-farm-is-the-prettiest-v14606810 2026-10-24T05:51:53.818Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tq8ecx-v37c/hqdefault.jpg Now the ugliest part of the farm is the prettiest!

Before attaching the brush hog, two other pieces of equipment need to be moved: a Bobcat skid steer with a grapple attachment and another implement (likely a bucket) that needs to be swapped out. The host drives the Bobcat to move these items out of the way. This step highlights the preparatory work often required before accessing and attaching the main implement. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rLu75oHiwMg 134 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tractor-university-proper-mower-deck-setup-for-brush-hogging-v14606816/attach-the-brush-hog-to-the-tractor-c3957329 2026-10-24T05:50:55.439Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rLu75oHiwMg/hqdefault.jpg Attach the Brush Hog to the Tractor — Tractor University: Proper Mower Deck Setup for Brush Hogging Carefully back up the John Deere 5065 tractor to align its 3-point hitch with the Woods BB72X brush hog. First, lift one of the lift arms and slide it onto the corresponding pin on the brush hog. Repeat for the second lift arm. Due to potential misalignment, a 'spud wrench' (an adjustable wrench with a tapered end) can be used to leverage and align the holes before inserting the pin. Once both lower lift arms are pinned, connect the PTO shaft by sliding the sleeve back and fitting it onto the tractor's PTO output, ensuring it's properly seated. Finally, attach the top link to its connection point on the brush hog. The host mentions that his first attempt at this process took 2.5 hours, indicating the learning curve involved. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rLu75oHiwMg 152 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tractor-university-proper-mower-deck-setup-for-brush-hogging-v14606816/level-and-adjust-the-brush-hog-deck-c3957331 2026-10-24T05:50:55.439Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rLu75oHiwMg/hqdefault.jpg Level and Adjust the Brush Hog Deck — Tractor University: Proper Mower Deck Setup for Brush Hogging Once the brush hog is attached, drive the tractor to a flat surface (like a paved area or a level gravel road) to adjust the implement. The primary goal is to ensure the brush hog's deck is perfectly level from front to back and side to side for optimal cutting. Adjust the height of the back wheel (also known as a gauge wheel) on the brush hog first, by pulling a pin and selecting the desired height hole. Then, adjust the top link to achieve front-to-back levelness. The host notes that the back wheel should always be pointing backward, and it's designed to swivel 360 degrees. The top link can also be adjusted further to allow for 'flex' when traversing uneven terrain, preventing the brush hog from digging into the ground or lifting too high. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rLu75oHiwMg 167 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tractor-university-proper-mower-deck-setup-for-brush-hogging-v14606816/final-checks-and-mowing-c3957333 2026-10-24T05:50:55.439Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rLu75oHiwMg/hqdefault.jpg Final Checks and Mowing — Tractor University: Proper Mower Deck Setup for Brush Hogging Before starting to mow, perform a final pre-operation check.

He explains that after clearing the land with a bulldozer, all topsoil was removed, leaving rocks exposed. To address this, they used a landscape rake to gather rocks into a hole to prevent washing, and then attempted to drill grass seed with a no-till drill. He mentions that most county extension offices offer no-till drills for lease. He then shows an area that has been seeded, noting the sparse, dispersed grass (Kentucky 31 Fescue and annual Ryegrass mix) with many weeds, contrasting it with a healthier, thicker grass section near the pond. He attributes the difference to "intensive mowing." https://www.youtube.com/embed/AZErhFsI3To 125 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-science-of-grasslearn-something-todayreal-worldreal-grassno-v14606819/analyzing-soil-and-grass-stages-c3958187 2026-10-24T05:52:22.245Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AZErhFsI3To/hqdefault.jpg Analyzing Soil and Grass Stages — The Science of grass...Learn something today...real world..real gr The presenter explains the core problem: hard, compacted dirt with almost no biological material (0.03% organic matter according to soil samples). He shows how intensive mowing addresses this by cutting weeds, which then decompose and feed the land, providing biological material for the soil. He outlines the different stages of grass growth: Germination (baby grass - wire-like), Vegetative (teenager grass - wide, green blades), Transition (adult grass - stringy, less lush), Boot (mature adult - shoots up a seed head), and Anthesis (grandpa grass - dry, brown stems, no biological material). The ultimate goal is to keep the grass in its vegetative (teenager) stage for vigorous growth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/AZErhFsI3To 119 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-science-of-grasslearn-something-todayreal-worldreal-grassno-v14606819/implementing-intensive-mowing-and-correct-seeding-c3958191 2026-10-24T05:52:22.245Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AZErhFsI3To/hqdefault.jpg Implementing Intensive Mowing and Correct Seeding — The Science of grass...Learn something today...r The presenter reiterates that they've mowed the pasture five times this year with a finish mower, aiming to keep the grass in the vigorous "teenage" (vegetative) growth stage. He explains that grass historically thrives under intensive grazing/trampling, which stimulates growth. They initially tried broadcasting seed after tilling, but it failed because there was nothing for the seed to hold onto. The seeds either dried up or were eaten by birds. They learned that drilling seed (no-till drill) is essential, as it plants the seed deep enough to germinate. He details future seeding plans: Tall Fescue (K31 or K32), Millet, Timothy, and Ladino Clover. Clover is key as a legume to fix nitrogen into the soil, reducing the need for fertilizer. The grass clippings also provide carbon and nitrogen, referred to by the USDA as "green manure." He explains that they’ve built topsoil by intensively mowing: letting grass grow to ~16 inches and cutting it back to ~4 inches, doing this multiple times a year. This process continuously adds organic matter back to the soil. https://www.youtube.com/embed/AZErhFsI3To 388 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-science-of-grasslearn-something-todayreal-worldreal-grassno-v14606819/longterm-management-and-soil-building-c3958192 2026-10-24T05:52:22.245Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AZErhFsI3To/hqdefault.jpg Long-Term Management and Soil Building — The Science of grass...Learn something today...real world.. The presenter emphasizes that the intensive mowing process provides 6 feet of forage from grass that would normally only grow 2.5-3 feet tall, effectively doubling the production. This is achieved by continually adding biological material back to the soil, improving its ability to retain moisture and stimulating root growth. He criticizes the practice of haying without returning nutrients, equating it to "robbing the land." The goal is to build the land, absorb moisture, and build carbon in the soil, eliminating the need for fertilizer. He also mentions aerating the soil to improve oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange and soak in water. Finally, he advises against letting grass "seed out" (reach the Anthesis stage), as it shifts energy from leaf production to seed production and dries out, offering less nutritional value. Instead, clip it before it "bolts" (produces seed heads) to keep it vigorously growing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/AZErhFsI3To 332 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tool-tuesday-electric-grease-gun-worth-the-money-to-you-lets-compare-v14606820 2026-10-24T05:50:55.451Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OwuRPjwxy3o/hqdefault.jpg TOOL TUESDAY: ELECTRIC GREASE GUN WORTH THE MONEY TO YOU?

Additionally, use the same grinding pad to remove any galvanized coating from the caster plates to prevent toxic fumes during welding and ensure proper adhesion. It's essential to wear safety goggles during this step to protect your eyes from debris. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4U_DvLua1rM 187 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-welding-table-like-this-custom-heavy-steel-v14606821/weld-casters-to-the-frame-c3957341 2026-10-24T05:50:55.462Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4U_DvLua1rM/hqdefault.jpg Weld Casters to the Frame — YOU'VE NEVER SEEN A WELDING TABLE LIKE THIS! CUSTOM HEAVY STEEL WORKBENC Secure the casters to the prepared areas of the frame using vice grips to hold them firmly in place. Before welding, consider the ball bearings and grease within the casters, which are sensitive to excessive heat. To prevent damage, apply tack welds in small, intermittent beads, moving between the casters and allowing them to cool. Use the Eastwood MIG 135 welder, adjusting the wire speed and heat settings as per the welding machine's recommended guidelines (e.g., lower wire speed and heat for thicker steel to achieve better penetration). The goal is to create sturdy, functional welds without compromising the caster's internal components. The presenter notes he's using CO2/Argon gas (25% CO2, 75% Argon) at about 20 PSI. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4U_DvLua1rM 198 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-welding-table-like-this-custom-heavy-steel-v14606821/install-steel-plate-tabletop-c3957343 2026-10-24T05:50:55.462Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4U_DvLua1rM/hqdefault.jpg Install Steel Plate Tabletop — YOU'VE NEVER SEEN A WELDING TABLE LIKE THIS! CUSTOM HEAVY STEEL WORKB After all casters are securely welded, remove any temporary rubber caps from the frame. These are typically included for tables with wood tops but are a fire hazard for a metal welding surface. The massive 3/8-inch thick steel plate (approximately 500 lbs and 6 ft by 3 ft) that will serve as the tabletop needs to be carefully moved and positioned. Use heavy machinery like a Bobcat S773 skid steer with pallet fork extensions to lift and transport the steel plate from its outdoor storage location into the workshop. Carefully align and lower the plate onto the welding table frame. Once positioned, use a combination of physical force (a 'gut lever' technique) and careful maneuvering to center the plate precisely on the frame. The presenter attempts an 'egg test' to check the heat of the plate, but it's not hot enough to cook an egg. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4U_DvLua1rM 210 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-welding-table-like-this-custom-heavy-steel-v14606821/tacweld-tabletop-to-frame-c3957344 2026-10-24T05:50:55.462Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4U_DvLua1rM/hqdefault.jpg Tac-Weld Tabletop to Frame — YOU'VE NEVER SEEN A WELDING TABLE LIKE THIS! CUSTOM HEAVY STEEL WORKBEN After positioning the steel plate, tac-weld it to the frame. The presenter initially thought his smaller Eastwood MIG 135 welder wasn't powerful enough for the 3/8-inch steel, but after adjusting settings (and cleaning the contact points), he found it sufficient for tacking. Apply tack welds in three places on each side of the beam directly supporting the tabletop, and then on each individual side of the tabletop where it meets the frame. The goal is to secure the tabletop firmly to the frame. For a final, stronger weld, a larger welder or bolting may be considered later. https://www.youtube.com/embed/4U_DvLua1rM 76 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-welding-table-like-this-custom-heavy-steel-v14606821/clean-and-prepare-tabletop-for-patina-c3957345 2026-10-24T05:50:55.462Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4U_DvLua1rM/hqdefault.jpg Clean and Prepare Tabletop for Patina — YOU'VE NEVER SEEN A WELDING TABLE LIKE THIS!

Remove the old fuel filter element (NAPA Gold Filter 3166) and the rubber O-ring located on the bolt. Clean any debris from the housing and the bolt. Install a new O-ring (supplied with the new filter) onto the bolt, lubricating it slightly with oil or diesel. Place the new filter element onto the bolt and secure it into the housing. Do not overtighten the bolt; tighten only until the fuel stops leaking (approximately 17-18 ft-lbs or snug). Repeat this process for the secondary fuel filter (NAPA Gold Filter 3166), which includes a glass bowl as a water separator. Clean the glass bowl thoroughly before installation and install a new O-ring.

While caps might seem protective, they can trap moisture inside the hollow posts, leading to rust and premature degradation over time due to expansion and contraction. Leaving the tops of the posts open allows water to drain and air to circulate, preventing moisture buildup and extending the lifespan of the posts. These particular posts are noted to be 'twice as thick' as average chain-link fence posts, indicating high durability even without caps. https://www.youtube.com/embed/KMYRronbMxE 44 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-a-proknot-tyingpulling-wire-tight-and-more-v14606834/install-hightensile-electric-line-c3957001 2026-10-24T05:50:21.090Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KMYRronbMxE/hqdefault.jpg Install High-Tensile Electric Line — Fencing Like A Pro...Knot tying..Pulling wire tight and more! After the main fence is installed, a high-tensile electric line is added for enhanced livestock control and cross-fencing. The wire is unwound from a specialized roller, which is pulled along the fence line. Bullnose insulators are pre-installed on the posts to support and isolate the electric wire from the metal posts. The high-tensile wire is simply laid into the insulators, one by one, along the entire length of the fence. This allows for quick installation of the electric line, which will deter livestock (like horses or cows) from leaning on or crossing the fence, and also provides a termination point for future cross-fencing sections. https://www.youtube.com/embed/KMYRronbMxE 109 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-a-proknot-tyingpulling-wire-tight-and-more-v14606834/tie-a-termination-knot-permanent-anchor-c3957002 2026-10-24T05:50:21.090Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KMYRronbMxE/hqdefault.jpg Tie a Termination Knot (Permanent Anchor) — Fencing Like A Pro...Knot tying..Pulling wire tight and The termination knot is used to secure the end of a fence wire to a post or other anchor point. First, wrap the wire around the post. Then, create a 'lazy loop' by bending the wire into a long wrap. Next, create two 'tight wraps' around the main wire, pulling them snugly. After these wraps, insert a 'crank handle' (a small metal rod) into the end of the wire and twist it. This action rings the wire back towards the coils, causing the excess wire to snap off cleanly, leaving a smooth finish without sharp edges that could cause injury or snag. This knot provides a strong, secure end-point for the fence line. https://www.youtube.com/embed/KMYRronbMxE 149 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-a-proknot-tyingpulling-wire-tight-and-more-v14606834/attach-bullnose-insulator-c3957005 2026-10-24T05:50:21.090Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KMYRronbMxE/hqdefault.jpg Attach Bullnose Insulator — Fencing Like A Pro...Knot tying..Pulling wire tight and more! After tying the termination knot, slide a bullnose insulator onto the main high-tensile wire.

Bend one end of this tail around the post and secure it with a termination knot. Then, thread the other end of the tail through the bullnose insulator, around the main wire, and back through the insulator. Make six tight wraps around itself to secure the insulator to the post. The bullnose insulator is designed to isolate the electric charge from the steel post, ensuring the electric fence remains effective. https://www.youtube.com/embed/KMYRronbMxE 103 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/fencing-like-a-proknot-tyingpulling-wire-tight-and-more-v14606834/tension-hightensile-wire-with-ratchet-strainer-c3957007 2026-10-24T05:50:21.090Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KMYRronbMxE/hqdefault.jpg Tension High-Tensile Wire with Ratchet Strainer — Fencing Like A Pro...Knot tying..Pulling wire tigh To ensure maximum tension and longevity of the high-tensile electric fence, use a ratchet strainer.

Lane explains his process of planting a cover crop mix including winter peas, crimson clover, and rye in the fall to initiate soil building, as opposed to conventional tilling and synthetic fertilization. https://www.youtube.com/embed/7SRK0lkHNw8 49 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-small-scale-no-till-farmingbuilding-soil-from-a-v14606863/identify-and-explain-cover-crop-benefits-c3958706 2026-10-24T05:52:57.524Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7SRK0lkHNw8/hqdefault.jpg Identify and Explain Cover Crop Benefits — Learn Something Today: Small Scale No Till Farming...Buil Lane walks through a vibrant cover crop field, identifying tall rye (approximately 5 feet tall), winter peas, and crimson clover. He explains his strategy of planting diverse cover crops with varying heights to create a multi-layered canopy. He highlights that legumes like winter peas and crimson clover are excellent nitrogen fixers, meaning they convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form usable by plants. This process provides crucial nutrients for subsequent cash crops without the need for artificial fertilizers, contributing significant biomass (3-4 tons per acre) to the soil. https://www.youtube.com/embed/7SRK0lkHNw8 340 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-small-scale-no-till-farmingbuilding-soil-from-a-v14606863/demonstrate-nitrogen-nodulation-and-roller-crimping-c3958707 2026-10-24T05:52:57.524Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7SRK0lkHNw8/hqdefault.jpg Demonstrate Nitrogen Nodulation and Roller Crimping — Learn Something Today: Small Scale No Till Far The host digs up the roots of a legume (winter pea) to showcase the visible nodules, explaining that these are sites of atmospheric nitrogen fixation. He clarifies that this fixed nitrogen is stored within the plant and will be released into the soil when the plant decomposes. He then simulates the termination process using a roller crimper. This method involves pushing the cover crop over and crimping its stems every 5 inches, effectively killing the plant without disturbing the soil. This creates a dense, protective mat on the soil surface. https://www.youtube.com/embed/7SRK0lkHNw8 114 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-small-scale-no-till-farmingbuilding-soil-from-a-v14606863/explain-benefits-of-mulch-mat-for-planting-c3958708 2026-10-24T05:52:57.524Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7SRK0lkHNw8/hqdefault.jpg Explain Benefits of Mulch Mat for Planting — Learn Something Today: Small Scale No Till Farming...Bu The host explains that the dense mat created by roller crimping the cover crop offers several advantages: it acts as a natural weed suppressor by blocking sunlight, prevents moisture evaporation from the soil surface, and slowly releases micro-nutrients as it decomposes. This decomposition also feeds beneficial soil organisms like earthworms and fungi. For planting new crops (like corn or soybeans), a no-till drill uses a coulter to slice through the mat, a double-disk opener to create a slot for seeds, and a press wheel to close the soil, ensuring seeds are planted directly into the nutrient-rich, moist environment. https://www.youtube.com/embed/7SRK0lkHNw8 140 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-small-scale-no-till-farmingbuilding-soil-from-a-v14606863/assess-soil-health-with-radishes-and-earthworms-c3958709 2026-10-24T05:52:57.524Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7SRK0lkHNw8/hqdefault.jpg Assess Soil Health with Radishes and Earthworms — Learn Something Today: Small Scale No Till Farming In a field previously terminated and planted, the hosts examine the soil beneath the cover crop mat. They locate a decomposing daikon radish (also called tillage radish) tuber, explaining its role in aerating the soil by burrowing deep (1-2 feet) and creating channels for water infiltration. Radishes also break up compacted soil and store nutrients that are released upon decomposition. Digging deeper, they reveal numerous earthworms, which are crucial indicators of healthy soil, further enhancing aeration and nutrient cycling. The soil profile shows a rich, dark topsoil layer transitioning to red clay, demonstrating the successful long-term soil building process. https://www.youtube.com/embed/7SRK0lkHNw8 275 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/a-pretty-funny-comment-wednesday-night-live-stream-v14606865 2026-10-24T05:52:29.313Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fQwYfBD7L0M/hqdefault.jpg A pretty funny comment Wednesday night live stream!

Ventrac goes up against The John Dee The presenter shares his definitive opinion: the Ventrac provides a superior cut, despite being significantly less powerful (24 HP vs. 65 HP) and more fuel-efficient (half the fuel consumption) than the John Deere. He demonstrates the difference in how each mower processes the cut grass: the Woods bush hog tends to leave a strip of un-mowed, flattened grass in its wake due to the tractor tires flattening it before the blades, making it harder to collect for hay. In contrast, the Ventrac's 'tough cut' mower broadcasts the grass clippings more evenly, allowing for easier raking for hay and a cleaner overall appearance. He declares that the Ventrac will be the primary mower for their 80 acres of pasture land going forward, given its efficiency, superior cut quality, and maneuverability, especially its tighter turning radius at the end of rows. https://www.youtube.com/embed/zlnFaiKQT7M 160 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/willys-jeep-rescue-soaking-the-frame-in-eastwood-rust-encapsulator-v14606868 2026-10-24T05:50:38.352Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/9ykwYo_gYGI/hqdefault.jpg Willys Jeep Rescue: Soaking the Frame in Eastwood Rust Encapsulator ..Results??

They specify that while 'dustless blasting' uses water and rust inhibitors, they will be performing 'dust blasting' (dry blasting) on the Jeep frame because they are in an open field, eliminating concerns about dust affecting neighbors or nearby objects. They also highlight that they use crushed bottle glass (recycled beer bottles) as the abrasive media, adhering to EPA regulations that prohibit the use of sand due to the harmful silica dust it produces. The equipment consists of a 50-horsepower Kohler diesel-powered rotary air compressor, an air dryer to remove moisture from the air (crucial for dry blasting), a moisture separator, a blast pot for holding the glass media, and a 150-gallon water tank with an air-powered pump (though water is not used for this specific job). The entire system is self-contained and mobile, requiring only fuel and media. https://www.youtube.com/embed/VVCWIPaj6N4 171 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/willys-jeep-rescue-popcorns-frame-gets-sandblasted-results-are-awesome-v14606870/load-blasting-media-c3798520 2026-10-23T00:24:19.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VVCWIPaj6N4/hqdefault.jpg Load Blasting Media — Willys Jeep Rescue: Popcorn's Frame Gets SANDBLASTED!!

He identifies the most recently captured swarm, currently in a small 5-frame nuc (nucleus hive) stacked 'double high,' meaning it contains ten frames. He notes the hive is crowded and ready for expansion. To prepare, he places two cinder blocks next to the small nuc to support the new, larger hive body, ensuring it's at an accessible height for the transfer. He also explains the importance of placing heavy objects on top of hives to prevent wind from blowing off the lids, citing a previous loss due to this. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kmwn-bdG6Y0 103 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/honey-bee-university-creative-diy-ideaseducational-beekeeping-tips-v14606871/transferring-frames-and-queen-from-nuc-to-new-hive-c3959042 2026-10-24T05:53:15.823Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kmwn-bdG6Y0/hqdefault.jpg Transferring Frames and Queen from Nuc to New Hive — Honey Bee University: Creative DIY Ideas...Educ The beekeeper gently removes the metal top cover and the wooden inner cover from the crowded 5-frame nuc. He uses a hive tool to carefully loosen and lift each frame. He points out frames full of capped honey, brood (baby bees and larvae), and pollen. He emphasizes moving slowly and gently to avoid squishing bees, which can release alarm pheromones. After locating the queen bee—a larger, distinct individual—on one of the frames, he carefully places that frame into the center of the new, larger 10-frame hive. He then transfers the remaining frames, prioritizing the frames with brood and honey, ensuring the queen is secured in her new 'apartment'. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kmwn-bdG6Y0 215 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/honey-bee-university-creative-diy-ideaseducational-beekeeping-tips-v14606871/shaking-remaining-bees-and-finalizing-the-relocation-c3959043 2026-10-24T05:53:15.823Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kmwn-bdG6Y0/hqdefault.jpg Shaking Remaining Bees and Finalizing the Relocation — Honey Bee University: Creative DIY Ideas...Ed Once all frames containing brood, honey, and the queen are moved to the new hive, the beekeeper takes the empty 5-frame nuc box and gently shakes the remaining bees directly over the opening of the new 10-frame hive. He explains that the bees will quickly smell their queen in the new location and join her. After the bees are transferred, he places the screened inner cover and then the metal top cover onto the new hive. Finally, cinder blocks are placed on top to secure the lid, preventing it from being blown off by strong winds. He acknowledges that some confusion will occur among the bees for a day or so as they adjust to their new, larger home. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kmwn-bdG6Y0 105 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/honey-bee-university-creative-diy-ideaseducational-beekeeping-tips-v14606871/explaining-hive-components-and-entrance-management-c3959044 2026-10-24T05:53:15.823Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kmwn-bdG6Y0/hqdefault.jpg Explaining Hive Components and Entrance Management — Honey Bee University: Creative DIY Ideas...Educ The beekeeper explains the general construction of a beehive, starting with the top cover, then the screened inner cover (used in summer for ventilation and pest fall-through, with a solid wood inner cover for winter to retain heat). He shows a new frame with foundation, which is a wax sheet with a honeycomb pattern, reinforced by internal wires. These wires prevent the comb from tearing apart when honey is extracted using a centrifugal extractor. He then demonstrates an entrance reducer, a small wooden block with different-sized notches. For new or weaker hives, the smallest opening is used to help the bees defend against predators. As the hive grows stronger, the reducer is rotated to a larger opening, and eventually removed entirely for very strong hives. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kmwn-bdG6Y0 176 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/honey-bee-university-creative-diy-ideaseducational-beekeeping-tips-v14606871/relocating-a-weak-swarm-from-bee-jail-c3959045 2026-10-24T05:53:15.823Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kmwn-bdG6Y0/hqdefault.jpg Relocating a Weak Swarm from 'Bee Jail' — Honey Bee University: Creative DIY Ideas...Educational Bee The beekeeper moves to a smaller, custom-built hive he affectionately calls 'bee jail,' explaining it was from a swarm found by a subscriber. He opens the hive to check its progress, noting it is a very small and weak swarm. He carefully removes a frame and inspects it. Despite the small number of bees, he is pleased to find small white specs of eggs, confirming the presence of a laying queen. He then transfers the frames from this 'bee jail' hive into a standard green hive, hoping the new space will allow them to thrive. He explains that working with bees during midday, when most foragers are out, minimizes disruption. After transferring, he closes the new hive with its covers. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kmwn-bdG6Y0 149 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/best-country-boy-fathers-day-gifts-of-2019-lets-give-it-away-v14606872 2026-10-24T05:52:09.230Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/e5CHfBrDhD4/hqdefault.jpg Best Country Boy Father's Day gifts of 2019!

This two-wheel-drive tractor has been fully restored and is considered a reliable 'workhorse'. The rear-mounted implement is an Everything Attachments ER62 Heavy-Duty Tiller, known for its robust tines and a 5-year gearbox warranty. It includes an adjustable depth setting, typically set to the deepest setting for thorough tilling. A unique feature of this tiller is its integrated kickstand, which prevents the tiller from rolling over when unhooked from the tractor, making attachment and detachment easier compared to other tillers. https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Gpv9IRQsvc 107 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/rear-mount-verses-front-mount-rototiller-you-decide-v14606892/examine-frontmounted-tiller-setup-c3800836 2026-10-23T00:26:59.179Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_Gpv9IRQsvc/hqdefault.jpg Examine Front-Mounted Tiller Setup — Rear mount verses Front Mount Rototiller !

To match the tilling width, two of the eight tires on the Ventrac were removed so that the tiller's footprint aligned with the tractor's, preventing overlapping passes. The video highlights that this particular front-mounted tiller is a proprietary attachment, specifically designed for the Ventrac tractor, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance. https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Gpv9IRQsvc 41 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/rear-mount-verses-front-mount-rototiller-you-decide-v14606892/operate-rearmounted-tiller-c3800837 2026-10-23T00:26:59.179Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_Gpv9IRQsvc/hqdefault.jpg Operate Rear-Mounted Tiller — Rear mount verses Front Mount Rototiller ! You Decide! Once the Massey Ferguson 240 is started and the rear-mounted tiller is engaged, operate the tractor by driving forward slowly. The tiller, positioned behind the tractor, digs into the soil, breaking up compacted earth and mixing it with any surface amendments. Observe the tilling depth and consistency as you make passes across the garden bed. The design of this tiller requires the tractor to drive forward, pulling the tiller through the ground. Remember that with a rear-mounted tiller, it is usually necessary to back up very slowly and carefully to drop the tiller into place for the initial pass. https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Gpv9IRQsvc 104 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/rear-mount-verses-front-mount-rototiller-you-decide-v14606892/operate-frontmounted-tiller-c3800838 2026-10-23T00:26:59.179Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_Gpv9IRQsvc/hqdefault.jpg Operate Front-Mounted Tiller — Rear mount verses Front Mount Rototiller ! You Decide! For the front-mounted Ventrac tiller, the operation differs from traditional rear-mounted setups. You need to drive the Ventrac 4500Y in reverse, with the front-mounted tiller leading the way. This configuration allows for greater precision and visibility of the tilling process, as the operator can directly see the tines breaking the ground. The articulating nature of the Ventrac tractor also contributes to its maneuverability, allowing for tighter turns and more controlled tilling, which can be particularly advantageous in irregularly shaped garden beds. https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Gpv9IRQsvc 115 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/rear-mount-verses-front-mount-rototiller-you-decide-v14606892/evaluate-tiller-performance-c3800839 2026-10-23T00:26:59.179Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_Gpv9IRQsvc/hqdefault.jpg Evaluate Tiller Performance — Rear mount verses Front Mount Rototiller ! You Decide! After operating both tillers, evaluate their performance based on the tilled soil's appearance and the overall ease of use. The rear-mounted Everything Attachments ER62 tiller, powered by the 41 HP Massey Ferguson 240, offers significant ripping and digging power, making it excellent for tougher conditions. Its main drawback is needing to carefully back up to set the tiller in the ground. In contrast, the front-mounted Ventrac tiller, despite being less powerful (24 HP), excels in precision and maneuverability due to its forward visibility and articulating design. The Ventrac also offers the added convenience of easily swapping attachments (like switching from tilling to mowing) due to its quick-attach front-mount system, making it highly versatile for various farm tasks. Both tillers produce a similar, fine till in prepared soil. https://www.youtube.com/embed/_Gpv9IRQsvc 98 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/homestead-drama-north-carolina-tornado-warning-on-the-farm-v14606893 2026-10-24T05:51:23.601Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/veSW4EmIjpk/hqdefault.jpg Homestead drama North Carolina tornado warning on the farm This project outlines the process of clearing a wooded area to expand a residential yard and create a functional turn-around area.

Dump Trucks, Before beginning work, understand the functions of the landscape rake. The main 'tines' are spring-loaded and designed to scrape debris from the ground's surface. 'Gauge wheels' or 'leveling wheels' can be adjusted with shims to control the depth of the rake. For initial land clearing where significant debris is present, it's recommended to remove the gauge wheels or set them to allow maximum digging depth to lift all debris. If the rake is angled to the side, it will push debris into 'windrows' (piles) that can then be easily scooped up by the tractor's front bucket or other equipment. https://www.youtube.com/embed/_rJQ2OliNR4 150 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/meet-rakey-bobby-the-landscape-rake-dump-trucks-lessons-learned-v14606903/execute-land-clearing-with-landscape-rake-c3958855 2026-10-24T05:53:06.768Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_rJQ2OliNR4/hqdefault.jpg Execute Land Clearing with Landscape Rake — Meet "Rakey Bobby" The Landscape Rake!!

Farm chores that could save a life To tighten the sagging sections of the electric netting, grasp a fence post and pull it outwards to stretch the netting taut. Once a section is tight, firmly push the post back into the ground to secure it. For more persistent sagging, especially where the netting runs along the ground or touches leaves and twigs, manually lift these low points and secure the fence to the posts by wrapping the netting around the top of the post or twisting it to create tension. Repeat this along the entire fence line, focusing on areas where sag is evident, to prevent small animals from crawling under or getting stuck. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ae2HnxT1TXo 90 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/you-wont-believe-what-they-did-farm-chores-that-could-save-a-life-v14606954/prepare-bee-smoker-and-don-bee-suit-c3958931 2026-10-24T05:53:11.012Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ae2HnxT1TXo/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Bee Smoker and Don Bee Suit — You won't believe what they did!

As the plucker operates, continuously spray water into the machine with a hose. This water helps to rinse away the feathers, preventing them from binding up the machine and keeping the chicken clean. The plucking process typically takes about 20 seconds for two birds. Once plucked, the chicken should resemble a store-bought bird, with minimal feathers remaining. https://www.youtube.com/embed/inYCz-UVyFQ 72 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/butchering-chickensthis-aint-our-first-timewatch-and-learn-v14606961/gut-the-chicken-and-process-organs-c3958236 2026-10-24T05:52:22.489Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/inYCz-UVyFQ/hqdefault.jpg Gut the Chicken and Process Organs — Butchering chickens..THIS AIN'T OUR FIRST TIME...watch and lear After plucking, transfer the chicken to the gutting station. First, cut off the chicken's feet by bending the joint and slicing through. These feet can be saved for making stock. Next, locate the crop and esophagus near the neck. Make a small V-cut in the skin to expose them, then pull them out. To remove the internal organs, make a light cut below the breastbone to break the skin, then use three fingers to reach inside the cavity and pull out the intestines, heart, liver, gizzard, and lungs. Be extremely careful when separating the liver to avoid puncturing the gallbladder, which contains bitter green/blue fluid. Place all unwanted intestinal parts into a 'yuck bucket'. Save the heart and liver in a separate pan, and the gizzard in another. The gizzard will need to be cut open, cleaned of grit, and its inner skin layer peeled before use.

It comes equipped with a front-end loader (Wicked Grapple from Everything Attachments) and a cultipacker. This tractor is perfect for managing smaller properties, around 5 acres, for tasks like yard work, maintaining a big garden (tilling or plowing), and general upkeep around the house. The presenter cautions that it's not a suitable 'farm tractor' for properties exceeding 10-15 acres, as its smaller footprint, while good for confined spaces, limits its efficiency for larger agricultural operations. https://www.youtube.com/embed/QW7YZVSz-VY 79 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-choose-the-right-tractor-for-you-buying-right-the-first-time-v14606979/final-recommendations-and-pricing-c3798714 2026-10-23T00:24:43.070Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QW7YZVSz-VY/hqdefault.jpg Final Recommendations and Pricing — How to choose the right tractor for you! Buying right the first The presenter summarizes the key takeaways for tractor purchasing: always err on the side of getting a slightly larger tractor than you initially think you need, and ensure it has a front-end loader. He then discusses pricing for the showcased models: a used John Deere 310 D backhoe costs $15,000-$20,000 (2WD) or $22,000-$28,000 (4WD/cab); a new John Deere 5065 E was around $34,000 with a loader; and a Kubota B3350 costs $18,000-$25,000 used or around $24,000 new. He notes that tractors hold their value well, especially when well-maintained. For used tractors, always ask for service records and information about previous owners. He also compares geared tractors (like the John Deere 5065 E and Massey Ferguson 240) which maintain a constant speed for tasks like plowing, disking, or mowing, versus hydrostatic drive tractors (like the Kubota) which offer variable speed via a foot pedal, ideal for smaller, intricate work. For larger properties or extended work, a geared tractor with cruise control is preferred to avoid constant foot pedal pressure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/QW7YZVSz-VY 289 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/save-your-chainsaw-and-your-backcool-tools-for-the-forest-v14606980 2026-10-23T00:24:50.239Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/g3x0PBBpx8s/hqdefault.jpg Save your chainsaw and your back..cool tools for the forest!

He explains that he will be providing a quick review of his 2016 Mercedes Sprinter Van after one year of use. He mentions that his channel typically covers farm vlogs, farm visits, and reviews of vehicles and tractors. He highlights that this particular van is a base model, as they opted not to pay extra for features like steering wheel controls for volume or more information in the dash. He notes that the van had 32,000 miles when they started their journey and now has 37,000 miles. He emphasizes that to truly know a vehicle, one must take it on a 5,000-mile road trip to discover its pros, cons, and quirks. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pwd1g0eeFsU 119 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sprinter-van-review-at-1-year-v14606990/positive-aspects-and-windshield-quirk-c3959164 2026-10-24T05:53:27.434Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Pwd1g0eeFsU/hqdefault.jpg Positive Aspects and Windshield Quirk — Sprinter Van Review at 1 year The reviewer starts by expressing his love for the van's travel and driving capabilities on open roads, considering it a great machine for long trips. He mentions a previous trip with the van having 14,000 miles. He states that driving for eight hours in the van is comfortable. He then addresses 'quirks' from the previous year and new ones. He points out that the windshield still makes a lot of noise at high speeds (around 80-82 mph, given the 85 mph governed limit and 80 mph speed limits in Utah's desert), a problem that led to a windshield replacement last year due to a rock chip. He notes that the large windshield is very susceptible to rock and bug damage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pwd1g0eeFsU 102 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sprinter-van-review-at-1-year-v14606990/interior-space-model-choice-and-performance-c3959165 2026-10-24T05:53:27.434Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Pwd1g0eeFsU/hqdefault.jpg Interior Space, Model Choice, and Performance — Sprinter Van Review at 1 year The reviewer shares what he particularly likes about the van, specifically the ample head room (he is 6'5"). He states that if he were to buy the van again for road trips and farm use, he would choose the longer wheelbase (177-inch) and taller model. He clarifies that he would not waste money on the rear air conditioner unless it came with a package allowing variable idle speed, which is crucial for preventing damage to the emissions control system if the engine speed isn't varied. He also praises the van's ride quality, seating comfort, storage capacity, and fuel economy, reporting an average of 24 MPG, and up to 27 MPG, dropping to 22 MPG at 80 MPH with the 4-cylinder diesel engine. He notes that the 4-cylinder engine may struggle to maintain extreme high speeds on steep mountain climbs at high altitudes, requiring a slowdown to about 65 mph. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pwd1g0eeFsU 165 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sprinter-van-review-at-1-year-v14606990/negative-nuances-and-offroad-limitations-c3959166 2026-10-24T05:53:27.434Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Pwd1g0eeFsU/hqdefault.jpg Negative Nuances and Off-Road Limitations — Sprinter Van Review at 1 year The reviewer then delves into negative aspects and 'nuances' he dislikes. He criticizes the digital display in the dash for not providing enough information. He also mentions an unexpected finding from a Mercedes representative: the transmission only has a 36,000-mile warranty, unlike the 100,000-mile warranty for the rest of the drivetrain. He states that the van has had no other troubles so far. He describes the vehicle's poor off-road capability for a 2WD model, likening its traction to that of a wet banana peel on snow, gravel, mud, or wet grass. He strongly recommends the 4WD model for anyone planning off-road use or driving in snow. He also dislikes the fuel gauge, which shows full until half a tank, then quickly drops to the low fuel warning with five gallons remaining, forcing frequent, unnecessary stops during long trips. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pwd1g0eeFsU 159 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sprinter-van-review-at-1-year-v14606990/design-flaws-and-ergonomic-issues-c3959170 2026-10-24T05:53:27.434Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Pwd1g0eeFsU/hqdefault.jpg Design Flaws and Ergonomic Issues — Sprinter Van Review at 1 year The reviewer reveals that the rear air conditioning in his passenger van does not provide heat, only cool air, meaning passengers in the back rely solely on heat from the front of the van during winter. He then points out a specific design flaw with the windshield washer fluid sprayer, which is poorly secured and drifts, spraying only a small portion of the windshield. He calls this design 'horrible' and 'cheap'. Moving to the side of the van, he points out the difficulty of getting into and out of the van for shorter or elderly people due to the lack of easily accessible grab handles near the entrance. He shows that the only handle is high above his head (he is 6'5"). He demonstrates that the sliding rear door, when opened by a passenger in the back, cannot be reached and closed by that same passenger from their seat, requiring the driver to do it. He reiterates that if he were to purchase another Sprinter, he would opt for the longer, taller, and 4WD model with a variable idle speed option. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Pwd1g0eeFsU 139 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sprinter-van-review-at-1-year-v14606990/conclusion-and-recommendations-c3959171 2026-10-24T05:53:27.434Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Pwd1g0eeFsU/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion and Recommendations — Sprinter Van Review at 1 year In conclusion, the reviewer expresses his appreciation for this honest and unbiased review, aimed at the average consumer. He confirms his affection for his van and states he would absolutely buy another Sprinter, acknowledging that there are areas for improvement. He reiterates key advice for potential buyers: consider buying a used model (he paid $30,000 for his with 10,000 miles, compared to its $45,000+ MSRP). He highlights the van's benefits again: ample head room, storage, and cargo capacity, making it a good workhorse capable of towing 5,000 lbs. He stresses the need for a 4WD model if any off-road driving or adverse weather conditions are anticipated, as the 2WD version is easily stuck. He expresses hope to share a review of his 'new' Sprinter in the future, implying a future purchase with desired upgrades.

The presenter points out a chain that has become very loose and floppy, indicating a loss of tension. This excessive slack prevented the spring-loaded tensioner from functioning correctly and led to entanglement with string. The underlying cause was a broken shear pin, which resulted in the chain stretching or becoming too long for its mechanism. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rUnvhnmqe2o 59 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-repair-a-broken-chain-v14606991/break-chain-and-remove-excess-links-c3798068 2026-10-23T00:22:47.277Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rUnvhnmqe2o/hqdefault.jpg Break Chain and Remove Excess Links — How to repair a broken chain Acquire a chain breaker tool and a new master link (ensure it matches the chain size, e.g., #60 chain requires a #60 master link). Position the chain breaker tool on the chain at the point where you intend to remove links. Turn the handle of the tool to push out one of the pins from the chain link. Once the pin is pushed through, the chain will be separated. Remove the desired number of links; the presenter removes two links to account for the excessive slack.

Insert the new master link (the part with two pins) from the backside of the chain, pushing the pins through the holes on both chain ends. It might be challenging to align and push due to remaining chain tension. If so, try manipulating the baler's parts (like spinning a sprocket) to temporarily relieve tension on the specific section of the chain you are working on. Once the master link pins are through, attach the small retaining plate onto the pins. Finally, use pliers (needle-nose pliers are ideal) to firmly push and secure the C-clip (or spring clip) onto the pins, ensuring it locks into the grooves to prevent the master link from coming loose. Confirm the chain is now snug and properly tensioned. https://www.youtube.com/embed/rUnvhnmqe2o 116 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/pow-heres-what-went-wrong-v14606992 2026-10-24T05:51:00.517Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ywRAEDqjjUE/hqdefault.jpg POW!!!!

This is a temporary solution, as a larger, more efficient fuel tank system is planned for future use to streamline refueling during busy periods. https://www.youtube.com/embed/D2JHh7-kbPc 99 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/make-it-while-the-sun-shineswith-a-hurricane-on-the-horizon-v14606997/understand-hay-baler-mechanics-c3800994 2026-10-23T00:27:05.039Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/D2JHh7-kbPc/hqdefault.jpg Understand Hay Baler Mechanics — Make it While the sun shines...with a hurricane on the horizon!! Walk around the John Deere 385 hay baler to understand its components. Identify the windrows, which are lines of dried hay in the field. The baler's underside features small tines or 'fingers' that pick up the hay from these windrows. The collected hay is then drawn into a belt system within the baler. This belt system is responsible for rolling the hay tightly into a round bale. Once the bale is formed, it is ejected from the rear of the baler. The farmer also highlights the importance of listening for strange sounds from the machinery, as early detection of issues can prevent costly repairs. https://www.youtube.com/embed/D2JHh7-kbPc 74 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/make-it-while-the-sun-shineswith-a-hurricane-on-the-horizon-v14606997/bale-hay-and-eject-finished-bales-c3800995 2026-10-23T00:27:05.039Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/D2JHh7-kbPc/hqdefault.jpg Bale Hay and Eject Finished Bales — Make it While the sun shines...with a hurricane on the horizon!! Drive the tractor, pulling the baler over the windrows of dried hay. The baler will pick up the hay and compact it into a round bale. Once a bale is fully formed, pull a lever on the tractor (located beside the driver) to initiate the tying process (using string or netting). After the string is tied, pull another lever to open the rear of the baler, allowing the completed round bale to be ejected onto the field. Observe the baler's belts as the rear door closes; they will often 'suck' back into place, indicating proper function. https://www.youtube.com/embed/D2JHh7-kbPc 70 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/make-it-while-the-sun-shineswith-a-hurricane-on-the-horizon-v14606997/monitor-bale-formation-and-prevent-damage-c3800996 2026-10-23T00:27:05.039Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/D2JHh7-kbPc/hqdefault.jpg Monitor Bale Formation and Prevent Damage — Make it While the sun shines...with a hurricane on the h While baling, regularly check the baler's indicators. There are two arms on the back belts and a red/yellow gauge. These indicators signal whether the bale is forming evenly (centered) or if more hay is being collected on one side. Adjust your driving path to feed hay more to the side that needs it. The gauge indicates how full the bale chamber is; when it reaches the red mark, it is crucial to eject the bale promptly. Failure to do so can result in breaking the shear pin on the drive shaft (PTO shaft), causing costly downtime and repairs.

After the cows move out, pigs are brought in to eat the corn and actively turn and aerate the manure and bedding (wood chips, hay), accelerating the composting process. This system turns raw manure into rich compost, which is later spread back on the land, fulfilling Polyface's goal of land restoration and efficient waste management. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fu_l4pbY4OQ 146 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-real-polyface-farmhow-love-affects-the-beauty-of-the-land-v14607013/interview-with-a-polyface-farm-intern-c3959263 2026-10-24T05:53:31.194Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fu_l4pbY4OQ/hqdefault.jpg Interview with a Polyface Farm Intern — The real Polyface Farm...how love affects the beauty of the The host meets Grace, a summer intern at Polyface Farm, who is wearing a 'Grass Fed' t-shirt. Grace explains that the internship lasts five months, from May to September. She shares that she graduated high school two years prior and is at Polyface to learn farming, as she aspires to be a farmer herself. She elaborates on how her family started farming chickens in the suburbs, leading them to discover Joel Salatin and Polyface's methods when they realized their local practices were illegal. The host and Grace discuss the core principles of Polyface: manure, compost, wood chips, and the constant, symbiotic movement of animals to build back the land. Grace highlights that the most valuable lesson she's learned is the importance of relationships—with co-workers, animals, and the land—and how these relationships foster life, health, and beauty. She describes the communal living among interns and apprentices, forming tight bonds and sharing meals, creating a rewarding experience. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fu_l4pbY4OQ 273 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-not-a-tiny-houseor-is-it-choosing-a-storage-building-thats-right-v14607014 2026-10-23T00:24:21.752Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Im3z8EL2CDU/hqdefault.jpg It's not a tiny house....or is it?

The creator demonstrates the starting procedure: setting to 'start,' pulling the cord until it 'kicks,' then turning the choke off and pulling again. The machine starts easily on the second pull. He then uses it to trim dense, waist-high grass and weeds along a gravel road. While the FS 90 R cuts, it noticeably bogs down and slows when encountering very thick patches, requiring extra effort to maintain cutting speed. The creator points out that the factory-installed string (Stihl CF3 Pro 1.05) is inferior and breaks easily, exacerbating the performance issues. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SkPVRNoHCy8 163 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/stihl-weed-whacker-review-v14607023/demonstrate-the-fs-131s-performance-c3957396 2026-10-24T05:51:00.559Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SkPVRNoHCy8/hqdefault.jpg Demonstrate the FS 131's Performance — Stihl Weed Whacker Review Start the Stihl FS 131. Follow the same starting procedure: turn on the choke, pump the primer bulb until fuel is visible (about 4 pumps), pull the cord until it 'catches,' then turn the choke off and pull to start. The machine starts on the first or second pull, sounding much more powerful. With the shoulder harness engaged, the creator demonstrates trimming the same dense, waist-high grass. The FS 131 powers through the thick growth without bogging down, showcasing its superior performance and the comfort benefits of the harness. However, the factory-supplied Stihl string breaks off quickly, reinforcing the need for better quality line. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SkPVRNoHCy8 98 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/stihl-weed-whacker-review-v14607023/select-the-best-trimmer-line-c3957401 2026-10-24T05:51:00.559Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SkPVRNoHCy8/hqdefault.jpg Select the Best Trimmer Line — Stihl Weed Whacker Review After demonstrating the trimmers, the creator identifies the best string trimmer line he has found: Oregon Magnum Gatorline Square .095". He shows a large commercial roll of this string and emphasizes its durability and superior performance compared to the factory-supplied Stihl CF3 Pro 1.05 string, which he deems inferior and plans to discard. The Oregon line is presented as a cost-effective and highly effective solution for heavy-duty trimming. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SkPVRNoHCy8 86 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/stihl-weed-whacker-review-v14607023/final-review-and-recommendations-c3957405 2026-10-24T05:51:00.559Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SkPVRNoHCy8/hqdefault.jpg Final Review and Recommendations — Stihl Weed Whacker Review The creator performs further extensive trimming around a two-acre pond using the FS 131 with the recommended Oregon Magnum Gatorline. He highlights that the FS 131's power and the harness's ergonomic design make the job significantly faster and less fatiguing, allowing him to move 2-3 times faster than with the FS 90 R. He also mentions removing the safety guard from the FS 131 to demonstrate the maximum cutting swath, but issues a strong warning against this practice due to safety risks. In conclusion, the FS 131 (with upgraded string) cut the work time in half or even a third, providing more power, less bogging, and reduced physical strain. The higher cost of the FS 131 is justified for those performing prolonged, heavy-duty trimming tasks. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SkPVRNoHCy8 179 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-install-automatic-gate-openerpart-1-v14607024 2026-10-24T05:53:44.272Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xubNHPRUQ2w/hqdefault.jpg How to install automatic gate opener..part 1 This video details the initial phase of installing a heavy-duty farm gate with an automated opener, focusing on site preparation, post-hole digging, and securing the posts with concrete.

WHAT??? LET'S TALK GA Walk through your garden, specifically focusing on Roma and Patio Delight tomato varieties. Pick tomatoes as soon as they show the first signs of turning color from green to orange or red. This prevents them from ripening fully on the vine, which can lead to splitting due to rain or over-ripening, and prevents them from falling to the ground. Tomatoes that have already fallen to the ground should not be used for canning due to potential bacterial contamination. Inspect any split tomatoes (like the Patio Delight variety shown); while some minor splits might be acceptable for immediate use, deeply split tomatoes are prone to mold and should also be discarded or fed to chickens. This practice, combined with early weeding and mulching, helps maintain a healthy and productive garden environment. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Az1QKnmQb2c 165 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/giant-beans-what-lets-talk-gardening-tomatoes-and-canning-tips-v14607030/carefully-collect-and-transport-harvested-tomatoes-c3801290 2026-10-23T00:27:22.793Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Az1QKnmQb2c/hqdefault.jpg Carefully Collect and Transport Harvested Tomatoes — GIANT BEANS!!! WHAT??? LET'S TALK GARDENING, TO Once tomatoes are picked, place them gently into your collection bucket. It is crucial not to stack the tomatoes more than three layers deep within the bucket. Overfilling the container will cause the weight of the upper tomatoes to crush the lower ones, leading to bruising, splitting, and accelerating rot, making them unsuitable for canning. This careful handling is essential for maintaining the quality of your harvest during transport from the garden. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Az1QKnmQb2c 190 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/giant-beans-what-lets-talk-gardening-tomatoes-and-canning-tips-v14607030/prepare-indoor-ripening-and-storage-area-c3801291 2026-10-23T00:27:22.793Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Az1QKnmQb2c/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Indoor Ripening and Storage Area — GIANT BEANS!!! WHAT??? LET'S TALK GARDENING, TOMATOES AND Bring the harvested tomatoes indoors. Prepare clean, flat surfaces like kitchen counters or a large folding table. Spread the tomatoes out in a single layer, ensuring that no two tomatoes are touching each other. Position each tomato with its blossom end facing upwards and its stem end (where it was attached to the vine) facing downwards. This orientation helps to slow down the ripening process and prevents moisture from accumulating around the delicate blossom end, reducing the risk of rot. It is recommended to have a fan running to ensure good air circulation, further preventing moisture buildup and encouraging even ripening. Do not rinse the tomatoes at this stage, as moisture can promote spoilage; they will be washed just before blanching for canning. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Az1QKnmQb2c 109 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/giant-beans-what-lets-talk-gardening-tomatoes-and-canning-tips-v14607030/daily-inspection-and-further-preparation-for-canning-c3801293 2026-10-23T00:27:22.793Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Az1QKnmQb2c/hqdefault.jpg Daily Inspection and Further Preparation for Canning — GIANT BEANS!!!

Cool chicken The core of the new mobile chicken coop is its frame, constructed from 4-inch PVC drain pipe. This material is chosen for its lower cost compared to high-pressure PVC pipe and its lighter weight. The chicken wire is then securely attached to the PVC frame using self-tapping screws and large washers. To prevent sagging in the middle of the long side, especially where waterers and feeders will be hung, a 1-inch PVC support beam is installed across the width of the coop. This support is held in place by bolts that run through the 4-inch PVC pipe. https://www.youtube.com/embed/N4uIhXJGpWA 105 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-anything-like-this-cool-chicken-coop-ideas-for-grass-v14607046/install-the-roofing-material-c3957257 2026-10-24T05:50:47.199Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/N4uIhXJGpWA/hqdefault.jpg Install the Roofing Material — You've never seen anything like this!

With the heated uncapping knife, which has been kept warm in the hot water bath, carefully slice downwards along the surface of the honeycomb to remove the wax cappings. Allow the cappings and honey to fall into the tote. For any areas where the knife cannot reach or for uneven comb, use an uncapping fork/comb to gently scrape or prick open the remaining capped cells. Ensure all the cells on both sides of the frame are uncapped before moving to the next frame. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wv0sfbo1c-E 251 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/extracting-the-spring-honey-harvestfun-and-educational-how-small-v14607053/load-frames-into-honey-extractor-c3959247 2026-10-24T05:53:31.511Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Wv0sfbo1c-E/hqdefault.jpg Load Frames into Honey Extractor — Extracting the spring honey harvest....Fun and Educational! How s Once all honey frames are thoroughly uncapped, carefully lift each uncapped frame and place it into the radial basket of the manual honey extractor. Ensure that the frames are securely seated within the designated slots of the basket. For radial extractors, it is important to orient the top bar of each frame facing outwards, as this positioning optimizes the centrifugal force for efficient honey removal. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wv0sfbo1c-E 52 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/extracting-the-spring-honey-harvestfun-and-educational-how-small-v14607053/extract-honey-first-side-c3959259 2026-10-24T05:53:31.511Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Wv0sfbo1c-E/hqdefault.jpg Extract Honey (First Side) — Extracting the spring honey harvest....Fun and Educational! How small f With the uncapped frames securely in place inside the extractor, close the lid firmly. Begin turning the hand crank steadily to gradually build up rotational speed. The centrifugal force generated by the spinning motion will cause the honey to be flung out of the cells and against the inner wall of the extractor. Continue spinning at a moderate pace until a significant amount of honey has been visibly removed from one side of the frames. The exact time will depend on the honey's viscosity and the speed of cranking. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wv0sfbo1c-E 103 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/extracting-the-spring-honey-harvestfun-and-educational-how-small-v14607053/flip-frames-and-extract-honey-second-side-c3959266 2026-10-24T05:53:31.511Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Wv0sfbo1c-E/hqdefault.jpg Flip Frames and Extract Honey (Second Side) — Extracting the spring honey harvest....Fun and Educati After the first side of the frames has been extracted, stop the extractor's spinning and carefully open the lid. One by one, remove each frame from the basket. Turn each frame 180 degrees (flipping its orientation) so the unextracted side is now facing outwards, and then place it back into the basket. Close the lid securely and repeat the spinning process, turning the hand crank with similar gradual acceleration to extract the honey from the second side of the frames.

Electric fence netting... comprehensive The Premier1 fence charger comes with an adjustable solar panel, which is more advanced than other brands. The battery compartment is easily accessible. The system uses simple clamps: one for the 'ground' and one for the 'hot' wire. The unique grounding system is a metal spike that is stomped into the ground, eliminating the need for a traditional ground rod. The solar panel can be adjusted for optimal sunlight exposure (facing south). The panel's angle is set by unscrewing two bolts (knobs) on the sides, adjusting, and then re-tightening. Once installed, simply press the power button to activate. A separate voltage tester can confirm the fence is working. https://www.youtube.com/embed/KNgvCPgR4V8 184 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-girls-approve-electric-fence-netting-comprehensive-v14607057/deploying-the-fence-netting-sections-c3957399 2026-10-24T05:51:01.984Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KNgvCPgR4V8/hqdefault.jpg Deploying the Fence Netting Sections — FARM GIRLS APPROVE!!

Key points include: maintaining a clean and safe environment, protecting birds from predators by ensuring the coop is fully secure (its primary purpose is to keep predators *out*, not just chickens *in*), avoiding overcrowding within the coop, and carefully regulating temperature to prevent heat stress or cold. He encourages thinking like both a predator (to identify potential threats) and a chicken (to understand their needs) to provide optimal care. These responsible management practices lead to healthy birds and contribute to the successful natural fertilization of your garden soil. https://www.youtube.com/embed/KDxoJq1uz2A 76 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/live-mowing-hay-sorry-its-shakyreal-world-live-rusty-gold-mowing-hay-v14607060 2026-10-23T00:06:12.119Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BbUsz2xEhd0/hqdefault.jpg Live Mowing Hay (sorry it's shaky...real world live) Rusty gold mowing hay!
