Instead of waking up in the morning and heading off to work or school,
let's say you wake up in the morning and you have to milk your cow.
Or maybe you wake up and have chickens you need to take care of.
But what if I told you that is what we wake up to every single morning?
But not just chickens and cows. In today's video we are going to be sharing
with you guys our life as two teenage farmers living on
a farm. Waking up in the morning, milking cows,
taking care of animals. We get the whole experience and we are so blessed to live
here. So come along with us for a morning in
our life. Good morning everyone. Right now the farm
is waking up. Everyone's getting up. Also I wanted to
point out that we are filming this video on Mother's
Day. So that adds a little touch into our day.
We just went downstairs. We made our mom a coffee. We got her breakfast ready.
And yeah, something special for her. We're gonna get our day started.
So let's go. Okay, Maddie is awake. Right now she is in the middle of
doing our mom's beautiful hair for Mother's Day. So tell us what you
think our mom's favorite thing to do on Mother's Day is.
Farm work.
Is that true? Yes, it's very true.
Oh my goodness. Stop biting. Stop biting. He says good morning.
He's gotta get his morning water. Oh hello.
Yes, say daddy's awake.
Okay, so my mom is still getting her hair done. I'm about to go get the feed
buckets for her and then we're gonna do feed for the cows.
I'm going to set these up and spread them out on the floor.
Good morning. Good morning. There's Shorty.
Hi buddy.
I'm gonna make sure my sister does come and check for eggs though because I do
have eggs. But chickens are out. We're gonna head to
the barn and we're gonna get the cows done.
Daddy Warbucks, what are you doing? I gotta give them feed and you can't have
it. No. Come on you two.
All right, we do have to lock them in here because Shorty likes to come over
and try to eat their feed. He's a bad boy. These two are ready.
Here we are.
Good morning Shorty. We do keep him in the stall because well
he's a bit special and spoiled and he knows it. Right about now
Madison is gonna go. She's gonna feed the calves.
I'm gonna go grab the cows and then Maddie's gonna do Shorty I guess.
Sunscreen and fly spray right? Yep. Okay. Come on girls. Thank you.
Okay. Cows are all in. We are going to go ahead and start milking.
Shedding.
Okie dokie. The girls are all milked. We have one more cow to come in.
Madison is going to take Elias out while I bring the other cow in.
Thank you Maddie. Yes.
So when the cows come in the first thing we do is fly spray them and then we put
iodine on their teats. We always fly spray them in the summer
because the flies are really bad. Okay so while Devin is milking the cows
I'm gonna go do the baby huts and clean up the stalls
and that's where we're at so far.
Maple is done being milked. I'm gonna go see if my mom's gonna take
her out and then I'm gonna take up milk up to the house and filter.
What? Oh my goodness. Benji. Oh my gosh. Benji.
Look at him up there. He's just sitting there watching me.
Good to go. We just got done filtering all the milk.
Madison got done with all the cow huts and stuff. We are coming out now because
we do have to bolus and give replenish to Majestic
because she has runny diarrhea. My mom's getting all the chickens in
right now. Majestic's over there and then we got
Miss Formosa sleeping. They're all taking a nap. I've got a
little monster on my hand. What are you doing you cutie?
That's not for you. Yuck. Not for you. Here. It's for this baby.
Helps your tummy. There we go.
No. Okay we are complete. I'm going to head to the garage.
We're going to start getting pig food and horse food ready.
Okay. Welcome to the feeding station. This is where I get all the pig food and
the horse food ready. Pippin, Matrix, Snickers and then that
one is Scarlett's. My sister, she feeds Shorty and she feeds
Tick Tock because those are mainly her horses.
Anyway, I'm going to show you guys what I feed these guys.
Coming over here we have loads of senior feed because Scarlett is one of our
senior horses and so is Pippin but we are trying to get them to gain
weight as well. So this really helps. So Scarlett gets
the bigger bucket because she gets more food.
She gets three scoops. That's three.
Pippin gets two scoops. Okay. So we got our alfalfa. Just do a
layer at the bottom. Just a layer and then Pippin gets
alfalfa pellets and Scarlett does as well. Now we're
going to focus on minerals. They get their minerals every day.
Pippin. So we're going to go get our Gut-X and our Osteomax.
Matrix gets the Osteomax just because she has stifle issues and this really
helps her. Pippin gets Gut-X because it helps her
gut really well and well she has diarrhea problems too.
And then Scarlett gets Gut-X as well for the same reason.
What is going on here? What is going on here?
Our Osteomax right here and then we've got
our big thing of Gut-X right here. Oh girls how are we doing?
Okay. My bun is not bunning. It's flopping. I wish I have a pretty horse
when I grow up. Patience my Nicky boy. You ready girls?
All right let's let him out. Come on out ladies. All the horses are
done eating. We're just waiting on Pippin to
finish eating. So we're gonna head over to the pigs.
Be patient and wait. I'll give him a little bit just to feel
Dwayne. My poor bun. Look at Maddie's and
mine. Hello. Hi guys. Are you excited for baby bunnies? Yes I am.
Really excited. Yeah. These have been the best water
containers yet. Right? Here you go. All good.
Have a good day. All right.
We are going to go over. We're going to check on Pippin. See if she's done.
And then we're going to gather all the buckets and go from there.
Well this has been a crazy morning but also very fun.
We are so glad we got to do this and share with you guys
