And then water frisbes. >> So we've got something for everybody here. >> And then Tara will do tarot card readings if she hears the right person comes along. >> Okay. She can do tarot cards or tarot card readings. >> Terra card reading. >> Right. >> That's good. I like that. Mark my food dish that Mark brought me food. >> Oh yeah. So go go go uh have your uh your finish your dinner. >> A little too. So these are uh Ter get the vibe when somebody comes through and it's uh somebody's watching you. It's the angel feathers. >> Oh, okay. >> Somebody over. >> And where did you get what did you make? What did you >> I found them at crazy bins and >> so there are tags that say your father but them the father out and it'll be like if I get that vibe >> and it'll be like somebody your angels watching over you. >> Yeah. >> All right. So, we spent um a couple days last week putting this mammoth together. And this is the haunted house. So, we're going to go through. So, it's currently we've got there's a ladder in there. Yeah. So, uh it's it's 6:00 now. So, we should be opening pretty soon. So, right to the last minute. So, enter at your own risk. I think there's going to be people in here maybe doing some scaring. So, here we go. Oh, okay. I didn't see this when I came through because the lights uh I guess there's supposed to be some lights on it that haven't been turned on yet. >> So, you can hear hear people working in the background. >> All right. So, then we go through here. >> And then we've got >> some spooky stuff going on here. >> Okay. Moving through. And again. Lots of little >> crevices here for people to jump out. >> Okay, [Music] >> there we go. >> Well, there's one there. >> Okay, here we go. >> Spooky. Just lots of little added things in here. [Music] >> And then these guys, I think this is new this year, I believe. >> I don't recall these before. [Applause] >> Okay. And then we carry on. And we've got the spooky ghost here. [Applause] >> That's the one that I heard there. I heard somebody yelling. Okay, that's what that guy is. All right, then we get into the coffin here, the spooky coffin. And lots of ghosts and goblins. [Music] Okay. And this year, the uh the haunted house is a little larger. We actually had some leftover uh pieces, so we actually extended it to a full other corridor. >> Did you find it? >> No. [Music] >> Okay. So you can hear there's last minute adjustments being made as they arrive >> at the front door. >> Oh, spooky >> around where I am. So I there's lights inside of him. >> And this is the way out. >> Okay. And we're in the final stretch. Spiders, cobwebs, [Music] And out we go. >> Well, it's now Sunday and the Halloween uh went well. It was a uh it was a long end of the week. Uh we spent 2 days building the uh the structure and then setting everything up and it was all over in 2 and 1/2 hours, >> right? >> So, so everything went well. Uh lots of kids came by. Uh I think we got what was it about 168? Yeah. 168. Okay. Uh, so it went well. Now, this morning has been very windy. >> Oh my. >> And yeah, so we've have an issue with our barbecue area here. Uh, yeah, we probably didn't put enough screws in >> the front. >> So, uh, it's not the the metal roofing, it's just the flashing. Uh, but because of the wind >> pulled it up from the >> Yeah, that's the seam. So it goes up to there. So it pulled the seam. It ripped that out. Yeah. So I think we're going to have to rethink that and probably put screws in the front of it instead of just the top. So that's kind of what we uh woke up to this morning. The sound of drums. You can tell when Halloween's over is when we get all of our pumpkins, all the unsold pumpkins. So yesterday, Terra went into the city and garden center. >> Was it Lacost? >> Lacost Garden Center. >> Okay. I thought it was uh St. Leon's you were going to >> Lacost. >> Okay. >> And the reason is cuz they're all indoors, so they've never been outside. They've never frozen. >> Yeah. They've never had a chance to to freeze. Yeah. Uh so we've got lots of pumpkins here. So, um if uh if you're new to our channel or don't know, uh pumpkin seeds are a great natural dewormer. So, uh, we cut those up throughout. And this will last us a few months anyway. Uh, it doesn't get really super cold in here. Only gets down to just above freezing. Morning, Barry. How you doing, buddy? Just rubbing. Yeah. So, Barry's about 9 months old, I think we've figured now. He's a continental giant, and he came in uh this past spring. So, he is very happy and very friendly and inquisitive. Oh, you guys, the rooster, all the roosters lining up towards each other. >> Ducks were born that way. >> Yeah. So, the ducks. Okay, here are the ducks here. So, these ducks came in yesterday and you'll see one of them's having a hard time. Actually, they both are. Uh, their feet are crooked. One of the feet. So, we're not quite sure. I think they were hatched out on yard. We learned years ago that if you try to open up the egg and let them out because, you know, you just want to help them out. Sometimes there's a reason why they don't uh they don't come out. And so, uh, they came in yesterday. So, we're going to leave them in here. The people who brought them in bathed them first, so they were soaking wet and uh probably not a good idea to have them outside uh in these uh cooler temperatures. Okay, coming into the back. This little rooster here, I I don't know if he's got a name. If >> Hey. Hey. >> Hey. Hey. Okay. I I figured uh Tiana probably names them. Heihei. I'm not sure why. probably because it's like, "Hey, hey, get out of here." Because he is a little pissed. >> He came in with a name. >> Oh, did he come in with a name? Yeah. See, he dude, you're you're so small that you just don't really do anything, but he he tries, right? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. So, okay. These are Sriracha um Sriracha chickens. This is, of course, a rooster. And he is a tough boy. Anyway, we were in here yesterday a couple times because we had an issue with He's going to keep going uh with the pipe here. So, this is our spigot that goes outside. So, you would have seen this and we'll probably see this when we go and do the horses. Um it had failed the the knob. You'd try to turn it off and it just kept turning turning. So, it was stripped in here. So, we had to pull this out and I had to uh reconnect. Uh Terra went in when she went into the city, picked up a new frostfree spigot. Uh this is a heat trace that goes on and I still have to hook that back up. I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't leaking. So, um everything's good. Everything Are you still at it, buddy? Uh everything's good on it now that it's been changed. You are hilarious. And then of course when you try to go out, he like chases you out and you got to pick him up because he's like, "Oh, I'm coming out to get you." Okay, I'm out. Okay. All right. See you later. Hey. Hey. Yeah. We We have to try to keep these roosters apart, which is why Sriracha. He is out here because they'll just they'll fight. >> He's fights with his son. >> So, we've got three sections back there in here. And Barry really likes Sriracha. They It's It's the weirdest friendship. A rabbit and a rooster. Oh, you guys are cute. And it gives uh gives him a buddy. Hey, Trade Berry. Yeah. All right. So, we have grapes for the birds this morning. Uh so, Terra also went in and picked up some uh some nicely ripened vegetables that are donated to us that we can give to the animals. So, nothing goes to waste. Although if there is any concerns uh with mold or anything uh we usually throw those out because whatever we don't eat, we don't allow our animals to eat, >> right? >> Yeah. Oh yeah. >> Oh yeah. >> Cucumbers are a natural dewormer for them. So Oh yeah. Jerry, >> would you want a cucumber? He doesn't know what to think of it. >> I throw it in there. Yeah, >> just throw it down there. Oh, Sriracha's going to get it. Yeah, he's going to pick at it. [Music] Yeah, he's eating the end. The cucumbers go in seconds. What's that? Oh boy. Oh, there we go. The good stuff. The insides. He's got to really reach. >> They always jump. >> Okay. Yeah. So, we've got pumpkins. We've got lots of grapes here. >> Bok choy. We have apples. >> So, we're cutting off the dead ends. And then the ducks love the leaves. >> Yeah. I think ducks and geese like it's something like 80 80 to 90% of their diet are greens. >> Greens. >> So, you got to make sure you get them lots of greens. >> And Terra makes a fresh salad uh each morning for them. shirts. >> So, it was uh two nights ago, Tiana had yelled up to the house. She had turned on that faucet in the back uh to fill up the water for the ponies. And uh went out. I thought it was I thought it was We got so many animals here. I thought it was like a goat or something or a cat in the house. But then it became clear it was Tiana and she couldn't shut the hose off. So she had the hose crimped and she was yelling up to the house. Um so came out, shut off the water. Um and yeah, sure enough it it had had broken. Um it had just stripped inside. So when Terra went in, she um got the replacement then. So it's a cross link polyethylene pipe or a PEX plumbing pipe. And the way they go together is they have a little ring that goes over the pipe and then it slides into a fitting and then there's a crimping tool that grabs it and squishes it in and and tightens it onto the pipe. So, I've got one of those somewhere and it's usually on the hot water tank cuz you don't use it very often. You're not doing that type of plumbing a lot. A lot of times here it is just the gear clamps like hose clamps and you're fixing up like waters with with polyethylene pipe. Um so I went down water tank and I'm like it's not there. Looked for I don't know an hour or two. Uh Tara came home because she was in the city and then I thought okay >> yeah with the tap she picked up the tap. I figured, oh, we'll get all ready and know and I'll get it all. So, um, so I said, I can't find it. And I'm thinking, you know, did you pick it up, put it somewhere, >> and she tells me about guys looking like guys and not seeing things, um, which happens from time to time. >> And so I'm like, okay. And she's like, I found it. >> No, those were bold cutters. Close, but no. So, what we ended up doing, Tara went on our Facebook page and said, >> "We need uh a half inch urgent >> urgent. We need a 1/2 in crimping tool and a ring >> and like 5 minutes." >> 5 minutes. Shimmer, the the family that brought Shimmer >> um they live uh close and she was like, "Kyle will be there in 30 minutes. He's just f" and it was like, "You know what? Team work, guys. Team work." It only took about 30 seconds that we needed to slip the ring on and crimp it tight. That was it. So, um, >> and then I traded I traded I I get and payment, you know, cuz teamwork, right? I gave him some tick meds. >> Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Barter barter. So, so that was our excitement. Now, the next thing is to get that uh flashing. I'll probably just take the flashing off and le leave it as it was cuz it's been like that for a couple years. Well, not bent up, but not there. And this year, I put it on to kind of finish it and make it nice and and yeah. Um, didn't anticipate what was uh what was happening. So, okay. >> All right. Salad time. >> The salad is ready. We're going to uh grab the grain separately. >> Well, we might be able to >> Well, you're not going to be able to fit it in there. >> No, you will be able to take a scoop. But, yeah, we need multiple scoops, right? >> And I'll take the second scoop. >> Okay. We'll just do it in and unlock. Okay. >> Don't slip on the >> Don't slip and don't spill. >> Close the door here. Okay. See, I didn't close the door because I'm trying to There we go. Okay, here we go. The mad dash to get out. >> It's like bumper cars. Do not let them knock you over. >> Yeah. [Applause] We're on a little stepping stones here. [Applause] Yeah. >> Okay. Okay. Here we go. [Applause] >> Here. You want to throw that one? >> Not on a sheep. >> Not on a sheep. There we go. Now, >> here comes the pigeons. They're coming down. >> That water sure high. >> Yeah. Yeah. It's right up to >> right up and over. >> Right up to capacity and overflowing, >> which is what it was designed for. >> Charlie. >> Yes. The screamer. I see they're not in here. So, they must be out. I'm not sure if Terra already went out with uh >> Yep. >> Oh, she did. >> Charlie screams a lot. >> Yeah. Onyx, what are you doing? Are you getting getting your extra foods? She's confused. >> Yes. Oh, look at Charlie. just eating his eating his juicy apples. >> Oh boy. Oh, Toby. Where is he? He's over there. Toby, it's a pig. Yeah, it's a pig. I know dogs have a thing about pigs. He just minds his own business. But but oh yeah, listen listen to the drums. Oh, that's too funny. Oh well, sometimes uh sometimes things happen. Okay, with three little boys here having their breakfast. Everybody's doing good. Looks like most of the vegetables are gone. Uh Charlie seems to be the one that uh prefers. There's a rooster there. He's uh wrestling a grape. And Tucker. So Terra should probably have the hay out. Yeah, there we go. And netor. Yep. So Netor is well he was born when was he born? We did look that up. It was April April. Yeah, it was I I think it was around April. >> Oh no. So March 30th, >> was it? Yeah, >> I said April 2nd. >> So he'll be a year old this spring. >> The next >> So yeah, this Yeah, next this this coming spring. Yeah. Okay. And Onyx, hi. You know your name? Yeah. So, this one's a little different. It's a quarter turn. So, on there it says quarter turn. So, you It's not a, you know, you don't turn it, turn it, turn it, and turn it, turn it back. It's just one quarter turn. It's on, off. >> It's nice, though. >> Yeah. Well, and you don't have to worry about, you know, stripping something. I guess the way the mechanism is, >> it's got a stop at the quarter turn. So, >> yeah. And then so what it has what makes this a uh a frost freeze? Of course it it extends all the way in to where you saw inside. And there's a plunger in there with the gasket on it. And the gasket is 14 in on the other side of this wall in the warmer area. So then what happens is when you close it, this guy here is um is the is the air I guess it's an air lock. When it's on, there's a little plunger that pushes up to lock it in place so water doesn't come spraying out. But when it shuts off, it drops down and allows air in to clear out the line so that there's no water left in this area when it's frozen. >> I like it how you say frost free. No, minus30 deep freeze protector. >> It ain't frost protector. >> It's minus30 to 40 deep freeze protector and it still works. >> Yeah. Yeah. Well, when you live in cold climates, you got to have the right uh >> And yes, for those that are not here, yes, it does get minus30 regularly during the winter. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. If we live down in Florida like some of you or Arizona or some of those >> California, >> could you imagine no freezing water? >> Yeah. Wow. That would be >> Morning Shorty. So, >> yeah. So Shorty's been um >> he's now on a on the same one we had uh uh same pellet that we had uh JD on. >> Oh, okay. >> Sorry. Um and he's doing good. Hi J. Hi Shorty. >> Yeah, he's got some what is it? Arthritis. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> Okay. So now that the water's kind of going now we have to be like we have to flatten this. >> Yeah. That's >> You just always go through stepping on the high point. >> It's their hoofs that do it. They just They make little craters. >> Get in there cuz >> Yeah. >> Here, come stand here. >> So, yeah. JD JD doesn't come out uh or shorty. >> He comes out, but he doesn't come out a whole lot in the morning. Like, he's not a morning >> Yeah. >> a morning pony, right, Levi? Like you. So, it takes them a little bit to get up in the morning. And these two, JD and uh and Shorty are are older. So, yeah, we just have to take it as it comes, right, buddy? Yeah. Yeah. Take your time. Woo. >> Yeah. >> Yeah, that wind. So, we do get there are tornadoes that happen uh here on the prair. Well, we're on the edge of the prairies. So, the prairies pretty much end a couple miles west of us really and then you get into these treed areas. So the great plains essentially you know Winnipeg is on the edge of the great plains. Uh now Winnipeg west you get you there are tornadoes and back in oh I want to say 2005ish uh Eli Manitoba which is just on the other side of Winnipeg got an F5. Uh, so, um, an F5 is of course the strongest. >> Uh, and there's not I don't believe there's a lot of F5s. They're fairly rare and I think it was one of the only ones in Canada. Uh, but out here because of the trees, a tornado can't get down. A tornado needs to get down and have free range on the ground. But with trees, it kind of breaks things up. So, it it can't really get a good grip on the ground. Uh, so out here what we get is just severe winds from time to time and they call them plow winds because they're like a it's like a plow that just it can push and do severe damage uh that way. So that's uh that's I guess the weather events that we can get uh here. So and we picked this area because it was heavily treed and we didn't want to live uh out in the middle of a farmer's field. >> I need new shoes. >> Yeah. Yeah, my toes are coming out. >> Uh >> oh. All right. >> Terra doesn't spoil herself very often with clothes. >> Yeah. Time to get some some new shoes. >> That's my toe. >> But see, he wants to get in there, doesn't he? >> You done yet? >> He's like, what's he got in there? >> You working on it, eh? >> Yeah. So, we did get those ducks in. So, they are inside. And we've got a new animal coming in next week. Um, I'm not going to say. >> Wow. We've been telling them for how long? Have we? Okay, we'll let you guys guess. >> This is an animal we have had in the past. We don't currently have now. >> See if you guys can guess what it is. So, uh, putting it down in the description or the comment. >> And if you Yes, you'd have to go back to other videos to know. >> Yeah. So, if you've been watching us for a while, you'll kind of know that we've had pretty much every animal. >> Don't tell them. Just say I know. >> Yeah. No. No. >> No. Like in the comments. Don't say it. >> Yeah. No. they'll they'll find out next weekend. So, um yeah, so put it down below. See what you uh see if you can guess what it could be and um we'll uh we'll check on that next weekend and see if uh see if you were right. Anyway, until then, I hope you have a wonderful week. Less windy, more sunny. Uh and we hope to see you next time. Take care. Bye. [Music]
