hey what are you doing what are you
[Music]
doing welcome to the 10 Acre Woods my
name is Mark and here is my wife Tara
and we got something in the mail uh this
past week uh so I've been kind of
waiting for this uh real link is one of
the sponsors of our videos because they
send us uh equipment and that's actually
what we use to keep an eye on our mamas
our expecting mamas if you don't know we
have uh some kid goats two of them right
now and we're expecting a few more so
we're going to get into this and I'll
show you a little bit about it he is
right behind me isn't he yeah okay all
right I'll let our resident expert take
it from here all right go for it thanks
thanks Mark I've been waiting for this
camera
uh to check it out excited this is the
new real link uh the E1 Outdoor Pro uses
a new technology um a Wi-Fi technology
called uh
802.11 ax technology also known as Wi-Fi
6 uh it runs both Wi-Fi and it runs Poe
which is great not not so technical just
try to keep it uh a little little more
simple oh sorry I'll yeah yeah
uh it's a a great camera at a great
value uh it um it can mount to uh a
mounting system which we're going to do
that uh shortly uh we're going to put it
out in the barn and uh it'll just mount
in like this you can put it in a number
of locations because it does use uh the
new Wi-Fi technology uh which uh we can
get into that later if need be uh and it
does have an extension cord here for
your power so you can put it in a number
of different areas so not only running
straight on WiFi using this extension
cable you can actually run a network
cable alone which will power the camera
and send the signal uh through uh so
that you can view it on your smartphone
or on your tablet or on your computer uh
so it's it is a really good device it
does tracking which is a nice one
automatic tracking of pets humans
vehicles uh and it'll actually move once
it captures that tracking and it'll
follow it along uh and you can do a
number of different settings on how long
it's going to follow for it'll send you
a notification on your phone which is
great because this is one company you
don't have to buy a subscription to it
uh it comes with it right away which is
the beautiful thing uh about real link
so uh yeah we're going to we're going to
pack this up and um and take it out and
and get it hooked up uh actually you can
just leave that right there I'll I'll
take care of it good good job though
thanks thanks oh yeah yeah no no problem
yeah just let me know when you get that
set up because I'd uh I'd love to take a
peek at the uh at the stats on it thanks
all
right uh so anyway that's the camera I
will put a link down in the description
if you're interested in it or any of the
other cameras by real link uh check that
link out and uh help support our farm in
the process uh we're going to head out
and we're going to uh check in and see
how the progress goes with our
[Applause]
goats we're just heading out to do our
morning feed uh and check on the little
ones so as you can see it uh it snowed
all last night so end of the month it's
just been a weird year with uh with warm
temperatures and fog through January and
Mild temperatures but it's just been
hanging
on so we had an issue with our uh our
hose set up here uh it got put away one
night this pale was actually up on here
and this tube was just down touching and
there was a small leak just a very slow
leak and it actually froze the entire
line uh for the next day so we had to
take a uh a heat gun to do it to uh
actually warm it up it is a um an
anti-freeze type uh spigot here which
has got this drainer the Breather on the
top and then the valve is actually
inside so it does drain out or it's
supposed to drain out if it's left off
so so we're back up and running with
water good
morning how are we this morning
kids all good
[Applause]
Billy's just peeing on
himself Oh Billy there the lips going to
go
up just wait for it there it
goes there goes the
lip Oh Billy well and you treated last
Tuesday right when you put the uh well I
treated girls inside yep and then I
treated the girls inside 10 days later
and then I did them I mean I should have
done well yeah then you'll do them 10
days from now I'll do everybody 10 days
from now and then they'll get 10 days
from there they'll get a third three
three three every 10 days
three every 10 days three times three
times it's just she didn't do these guys
up front here you want
to you want to catch the um the
adults cuz it won't help with the eggs
so you want to catch the adults then you
want to catch them when they hatch and
then newbies can lay eggs within TW
between 9 and 28
days so you want to catch that third run
so that you know you've gotten all the
adults that can lay
right okay we're running a little low on
hay in here you did go and get uh some
hay last week I noticed out for out
there I'm going to empty this
totally
because then
uh clean it
out possibil that we might have to
utilize it for that uh
the cats right yes so there's a uh
there's a uh what is it there was a u uh
what is it called a animal control has
an adoption center an adop that's what I
was looking for adoption center
and uh
so we don't want the cats they're
closing that facility because the the
change and ownership of the building
ownership or whatever um so we don't
want the cats to be stuck with nowhere
to go so as a last
resort they will be able to come here so
that we they can still they still have a
chance yeah until they find don't do
cats and dogs until they find a new
building so we may have to house some
for uh which is why about a month or so
ago we did that uh actually month it was
about a month month and a half ago we
did that um the the mass try to find
homes for cats uh so we put it out there
and uh to try to bring the numbers down
at the adoption center so it was a
little bit more manageable uh we did
find how many cats did we find homes for
there was about 30 cats wasn't there we
had about 30 people interested sure
18 18 so we did well we reduced the
number by about half uh to make it that
much easier but how many cats did they
rescue since then is the uh is the
question a it's getting Mucky in
here yeah spring can't come soon
enough how do you tell what before theek
oh oh cuz you put the wheat you put the
wheat in the far one wheat barley and
barley oh
wow
yeah yeah so there's the barley and the
other one's the
wheat well we know what they like uh
[Laughter]
more yeah Tara picked up some more uh
this healthy straw so this step's made
uh locally here just south of uh south
of Winnipeg in southern
Manitoba and it's a uh it's a straw that
is uh just ground up I
guess so it does a really good job at uh
keeping things dry
absorbing somebody was coming
out they're like no
yeah they were like I'm going to go out
and do my daily run and then uh no found
out there was too much
snow mouse or something haven't had a
mouse in here in a long time one oh fat
pregnant one that one's a fat Mouse yeah
that's a big fat pregnant
one
oh got
more oh wow I haven't had m in here in a
while mice whatever mes me
all the
excitement listen to the choir
[Laughter]
sing well good morning
kids and how's mama
doing looks like your babies are
sleeping over
there the uh over the past number of
years we've notic noticed well they're
not doing it now but they usually sleep
in the food bowl so Tara's put a food
bowl in each one of
these um she also put this gate up
because petunia is being uh well she's
being uh fairly aggressive food
aggressive to Cocoa so um so Tara put
that up and then she found out during
grain feeding time which is what they're
actually waiting for now uh she was
actually jumping over that so Tara had
to put up this second board up a little
bit
higher waiting for your
grains yeah oh look at these
two mama and daughter how can you tell I
need to feed her first get your bowl
yeah get your
[Music]
bowl
[Music]
I'm getting pretty good at aiming
yeah
H so what we've got to do I put up that
new camera right there but the issue is
this so we've got a camera that well we
got two cameras but this one's one of
the real links that I put that comes
down here so there's behind here is what
we can't see so what we're going to do
today today is uh we're going to shift
these two over into the corner uh to
open that wide open so we can get a
better view now they do
look well no they like they they do look
large but then goats do because they're
a Rin animal so you can have a goat that
looks pregnant um that isn't so it's a
little hard to
tell Billy Jean does look a little large
these
two possibly you know I'm just kind of
torn so it's hard to say I guess we'll
just play the waiting game and see uh
see what happens I've been watching on
the camera yeah so
Holly Holly's definitely water milk s
see that definitely one to watch in the
last day or two their their milk will
come in and we want we want to not quite
as large oh and no milk bag see yeah see
no milk bag yeah underneath wait till
Holly turns around yeah so no milk
bag so just a few things to watch for
and the way they act once they get
closer to the time so Holly's one to
watch oh Holly's being a little food
aggressive which is why we do put down
multiple
bins they're not too
bad
tunia look at
her she's like I want to get the other
grains how's your babies doing they're
doing
good oh my
God who who oh little Zoomies
we C
babies what were you doing catching
M protein for the
chickens for
[Laughter]
you well hello
[Music]
kids oh is that your
kids this is the time where they start
bouncing
around and of course once they get
outside hey what are you doing what are
you
doing
yes you are ready to go so this one's
the little
girl and uh the other one which is Maran
yeah and then the little boy is uh
Little
John and whoops watch those horns yes
I'm Disney here move move out of the way
patonia uh so of course you can probably
guess what um Disney that is
from hey
yeah now this is also you're just
curious what is that is that um so this
is also the time that we want to get in
here and we want to uh work with them we
want to sit and we want to make sure
that
they're they're good with humans and and
they come so they're not
shy and they know that we are friend and
not foe right yes are you guys going to
have some
cousins
hey are there cousins coming I guess
we'll soon have to see won't we
yeah
yes
oh there we go
yeah
yes what's he doing oh yeah jumping on
uh
jumping on high
things oh is it feeding time no not yet
play
time yeah so what we'll also do is we'll
get some raised things to put in here so
they can jump
on cuz they like jumping on things oh no
they fall
down
hi did you
see what's
that oh yeah
there yeah there you go you can see her
pouch on the back end
there significantly
different
hey
T
tank
[Music]
tank
calling the kids for uh
[Laughter]
breakfast by nothing
tomorrow she's here tomorrow yeah Marlin
will be here tomorrow he want he was
checking out the baby was
he come on I know you'll see them in the
summer
whoops no coco she jumped up right at
the right time as I was opening the gate
okay so now I'm just clean
[Music]
up
good
morning good morning good morning Tinker
how are
you oh yeah so much quieter out here
without the girls it's
uh well you get the old
meow
onx well how are you
onx how's the
girl hi waiting for spring we all
are uh so yeah we've got uh this broken
down into Onyx
Sheldon and Charles
Charlie uh so what we'll do is
when you
girls it's Willow that uh well both
Willow and JJ and
Tinker um so what we'll do is in the
coming weeks when it gets warmer and the
kids
uh get older uh we will then be able to
open up this gate and it swings out and
latches over across into this position
here uh and then we can let them out and
they will head along and go outside and
hopefully it'll be dry and
[Music]
warm yeah Jasper uh Jasper prefers the
pig water rather than the uh the
watering station don't you bud
yeah cuz it's freshly pour of
course oh good
[Music]
[Laughter]
stuff turbo doesn't want any of
it he just wants to eat don't you bud
you just want to
eat all
right that's it uh we got another week I
I predict another week and um yeah we
should be almost letting you guys
outside we just want to make sure that
the pond is melted and cleared so uh
nobody is walking out on thin
ice oh there we go
we have light so there that one's
dead
good okay
girls uh did we disrupt your
routine so there we go we can see most
of the pen from here and then that
coupled with the other
camera we can see the whole thing and
this one of course moves and zooms
so and you don't have to like doesn't
die like Yeah because it is plugged in
so um this one will run and it'll just
run until it doesn't come right over but
it's well because I treated them so as
soon as I come think I'm doing something
to them that's what it is it's like the
humans coming in to treat us but you see
the gates this means I'm not doing
anything right but as soon as I open the
gate she get on high alert and be like
what the I'm out here I'm out that's the
one that puts that stuff on us
yep
girls what are you doing hi snow
hi would be we're all
[Music]
set right
back looking for Higher Ground yeah well
that's what I was just uh noticing
earlier we're going to have to put in
the upside down containers for them to
jump on
cuz doesn't take them
long at this age though there's a
there's always a Time on when to do
things because if I put in those
containers they can get knocked over to
the water containers which they can't
jump in right now that they're at a
certain height oh yeah but they can if
there's something in there so until we
kind of get it you you know where they
they have their sleeping areas and what
we'd also done uh especially when we did
rabbits is we put a a block or a rock in
the water so if you have any young
animals uh you always want to proof it
right so by putting in just a rock or
you know a cinder block depending on how
big the container is then if they do
happen to get in it they can get out
there's so many things that are like
it's a method to the madness right all
hey gets thrown on the far side waters
are on this side so the hay doesn't
build up to the height of the water like
it you know like there's there is a
method to all the the things you do you
just tend to not remember what you know
what I mean you just do it out of a
habit because you learned it years ago
mhm yeah so which is why we love the
questions we love
the little John hello you are so
cute you think I can you think he'll cry
for his mommy
you just want to pick him up don't you
just want to pick him up no he's he's
going
to hi little John
oh hello little
John no crying for your mommy you mean
I'm your
friend it worked this time hi when they
were when they were hours old it didn't
work so much he's snuggling
in you always have to do the Paw tuck
yeah t the PA oh
hi and the more human contact they get
the
better I'm your
friend right now you're you go go
go where's your mom where's your mom
oh the little where's your mom the
little sounds
mommy where's your mom your mommy's
right there she's right there he doesn't
care he says I just I just ate I'm
good ate
twice where's your sister oh where's
your sister your sister's like where's
my
playmate oh there we go
you want to go see your
sister M she ticked me
up so we're back in the house and um we
started off the video with the camera
this is actually a cam right here a
company called Beaver lab uh Beaver lab
tech sent us this uh intelligent uh
microscope
M1 uh magnifies up to 400 times the what
we were thinking that this might be good
for is uh when you don't have to rely on
the vet so much for taking in uh poop
samples to check to see if there's uh
parasites uh in your animals poop uh
it's not the greatest job in the world
but hey somebody's got to do it if you
can save a little bit bit of money here
and there uh then um then it helps out
so um yeah so it's a microscope and it
just um you just put it over top of a
certain uh whatever you're you're
checking out so I thought of I thought
you know uh what What's really small
that we're doing here on the farm um and
what we're actually um getting we've
been waiting this for uh two years I
think it is is fiber optics uh so fiber
optics has been coming to our
neighborhood not here yet we're hoping
that it is here uh soon as soon as soon
can be but of course waiting patiently
uh for them put in all the
infrastructure so I went and grabbed
this uh piece of wire and I stripped it
back and I noticed there was a bunch of
just blank wires in here there's no
actual wires in them uh but there is a
blue one which I stripped back and I
found I think it's like nine fiber
optics uh they
are uh they're just a little bit bigger
than the human hair so I thought this is
a a great way to check so what I did is
I booted up the app here here which is
called Beaver Point by Beaver Labs uh
you just connect it wirelessly and then
you start to observe and then you can
actually take video and photos I've
taken some photos I haven't done any
video so I'm just going to hit uh This
Record here okay so it's recording and
let's see what we
can what we can do here so these are
let's see if I can get all of
them not bad okay so they're a little
bit out of focus so if we turn this
there we go so this is magnified four uh
400 times if I spin it sideways I could
probably get it better it'll fit more on
The View oh look there's a piece of
lint little hard you know when you're
dealing with you can apparently get a uh
a base a
microscopic base that it fits on uh but
this is nice cuz it is portable you
don't to carry around a base so there
you go there's uh 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
11 I think there is a 12th
one oh there it is down there yeah so I
cut that one a little short so there is
uh fiber optics they're
colorcoded so that you can
um whoever's hooking it up of course
knows which one to hook it up on right
so we'll shut the this off oh stop
recording there we go saved successfully
um so you can take photos with it uh you
take video with it which is kind of cool
uh and you can see little things so what
we'll do is we'll use it um probably for
checking for parasites I would imagine
and who knows if something's small I was
thinking about using it on some
snowflakes outside on the deck uh Frost
maybe I'll maybe there's still time for
that so I don't know uh so it's a neat
little tool I'll put all the information
down in the description if you're
looking for something like this um
looking at small things up to 400 times
and um avoid sending poop samples to the
vet uh to have to look for parasites uh
anyway we will keep you up to date as to
the kids the count is currently still at
two um but um if something happens
tomorrow I will uh update you on that
I'll try to update you as soon as
possible um if not on this video um
check out our Facebook page or Instagram
uh if you do either and we'll update any
pictures on there uh so Happy Easter
from all of us here at the 10 Acre Woods
have a wonderful week and we will see
you in the next one
[Music]
bye-bye
