yay yes super excited about this um we've got to get the wheels put back on it we had a friend one of our friends met our friends named matt that's one of our hunters was out in kentucky hunting and he was able to bring it back for us uh this came from sheffield farm and equipment an amazing couple molly and matthew sheffield owned this business out in glasgow kentucky and they make farm equipment y'all and they make this beautiful creep feeder that we get to call ours now and it's gonna help us so much i can't wait to show y'all how it works when we get it off uh lawrence is lawrence is very impressed with it and i'll let him share more when we get to that later but yay y'all have to check them out check out their site i will link it here on the screen here and i'll definitely link it in the description and you'll be seeing a lot of this feeder yeah how excited are we austin barry let's see it yeah yeah okay okay a little cutie and these little cuties yeah morning ladies it's not it's not as frosty it's not frosty this one it's cool though oh we got it one more what are you talking about what are you talking about huh really i know that our talkative this morning okay y'all heading over to the barn shed area that place um to see what we can do to get the creep feeder i feel like it needs a name i wanted to call it something anyway to get the creek feeder off the trailer and get it set up and evidently we're gonna do this the same way that lawrence and wally got the uh bins off except i'm gonna be the other person on another tractor here's hoping yeah good job okay we got it hooked up like this on this side with tobacco come on up come on up is that good the good news is he called wally which makes me feel better because this really does make me nervous it really does so yeah and there he is yay wally okay i gotta watch the tub right here no no all right i'm gonna make sure this thing clears and then my job is to pull the trailer out so i do have a job y'all i do have a job one that i feel a lot more comfortable with okay he's going up okay okay a little bit more a little bit more a little bit more you go up a little wally okay okay come on all right i'm out okay now oh it's in the air and we gotta get it down oh gosh dave gotta get it down oh boy whoa whoa all right we have wheels bonnie we have wheels now get her down on the ground everybody's going down down down down good job oh okay that's good i get the prize today because i figured out where the handle goes for the lid he didn't think there was a way to actually open it i figured it out we had a missing piece and i figured out where it goes i might have been nervous about lifting it but i did do one thing right i just figured that out right you done good girl well most of them they had two dollars i had just did them down in tracks the bead gets in them and dragging me trying to get the doors adjusted you know that one you know be pretty easy he likes the way this door is set up that's what he's saying this is how you set the height of the door okay i can't pull it i can't get it stuck with paint you got your window i got one knot you got it hanging on the third right so explain how a creek feeder works for people that don't know what this means what it is it just holds feed the calf comes up in he lit he licks the feet out right there yeah so it's like too open to he'll just keep on licking it out and pile it up and knock it on the ground right it's a controlled method of feeding so we can leave the feet out there and they can only get a certain amount you just have to regulate it with how behind you have the door i said most of you see the little thing about 10 inches here this is wider it's got a bigger trough maybe won't lose much feed right very good very good it'll eat pretty good a couple days into the slack off well they do better on a deep better than the new hampshire yeah because because there's 38 heifers out there all of them come every morning then one gets us out of belly because she eat too much and she don't eat today and we're creepy they come get him in the morning instead eating one meal they'll eat 10 meals or 12 meals a day smaller amounts right when you first bring it out there they're going to pick yourself and then but after about a week everything gets back to normal and they just they just gain weight better and do a whole lot better very good okay y'all well the kids really really wanted to go to the little park bike trail area by the river and we never do this never so the weather is perfect and we had an hour so to spare so here we are here i am on austin's little bike because i don't have one for what it's worth that seat it's not made for me no nobody send me a bike i'll get a bike one day my little farm kid with a what is that it's not even a real skateboard no it's a cruiser cruiser you can't do any tricks on it just for riding oh no tricks just riding okay with our muck boots on can you go down that little hill and not fall oh you don't know please don't get hurt oh yeah you got it yeah wes go ahead for the tube y'all for the tube they want to do something for the tube all right what you gonna do just pretend like you're gonna hit me it's just my size here it's really pretty down here come on girl um you can really tell where the river got out you see where it's all muddy on the sides the river was way up there last week oh it was up to where your head is just about yeah you can see the fence line there how high the water was ugh what a mess my boy just rode the longest distance without using his hands he's doing it right now you are getting it buddy look what you learned to do today wow that's fun so little things y'all that's a big thing though that's a big thing i've never been able to ride without using my hands without just taking them off for a second okay she thinks she can do it too but we'll see don't want any injuries we don't want any emergency room visits one hand yeah one hand that's safer that's good and stanville when i first moved to this area i was just enamored with this park and this trail system i um when the kids were little i would come here a lot and stroll them and walk i used to walk a lot here with a friend and i really haven't been using it for years but we need to do that more it's really a little gem here in danville virginia he just said mommy you're not recording as i was talking i thought i was talking to the camera what i was saying is we're gonna call this a big fat win nobody got hurt right nobody got hurt there was no major sibling altercations minor not major uh you got some energy out you got some exercise you you rode a bike for the first time for a long distance without using your hands hello high
