Hello How is the shop coming along? Any updates.

Thank you for sharing your time with use. When you build the new shop will you put radiant heat in the floor? If so what fuel would you use to heat it wood or propane?

Drill a hole then take a piece of pipe and an elbow and have it run to the bottom under the sprayer or straight out by the wheels.They build it thinking no one will change the oil in it.Thank you for all your post I enjoy reading them.

Hello sorry that it took me so long to get back about the sealer for the camper roof.The one I like to use is Dicor ultra sealant self leveling that one will flow and the other one is Dicor lap sealant non leveling non sag.When you wash the roof before you seal it use Ivory dish soap it does not...

Good luck with the camper. One of the thing you should check and keep an eye on with camper is the roof and the seals around the windows. I do repairs on them and we find out that when the caulk around the roof vents and windows are maintained the camper will last for a long time. Thank you for...

How is the shop coming along?

Hello I really like reading about your farm and all you do. Thank You. When you said how many chicken are in the barn is there a percentage of lost that is expected. And how is the new addition on the steer barn doing?

Hello I have bin following along are there any updates.

Hello where about in Sussex are you I'm in Wantage. Any more updates on the build?

Hello how did you do with the little ones coming out to the farm.

Do you leave the lights on all the time and do the water and feed get pulled up as the chickens grow.How much work do they take each day or dose the barn some what run it's self.

I love reading about you and the farm life. Please keep it up.How large of an investment is it to set up a barn like that and how many cows dose it take to support that kind of operation.

You can use copper for propane lines when I built my house the plumbing inspector said the copper was fine but he really liked black pipe.I look in the code book for the up date but the new book does not have gas piping in it.The older code book said you can use copper on propane lines.

When the cow comes in to be milk will the the pellets change depending on the milk and the health or are they all the same.

Thank you, That's very interesting.You said the cow are milked three times a day they just come in on there own? Do they get hay in the barn in-between milking.When the cow comes to be milked dose the tag records how much milk she gives.

The house looks good did you think about having the big shop not connected to the house so when your working in it like welding or painting you don't have the smells getting in the house.I have a large wood shop that's attached to the house and I wish I put up a separate building for it.Just a...

Your work never seems to be done.I like reading all about the farm. Please keep it up.

yes it is MERRY CHRISTMAS

If you do a slab, radiant heat would be nice but living on concrete is rough on the knees and lower back. You could put built-ins for cloths in the up stairs bedrooms to fit the children's need's.Over all it will be a great living space to raise a family in. good luck and Happy Holidays.
