The transcript captures a casual, conversational farm vlog where two speakers, A and B, walk through a family farm and discuss a wide variety of animals under their care. They introduce the farm’s resident cats (Marlin, Royal, Almanzo) and comment on their quirky behaviors. The dialogue moves to the chicken flock, describing egg‑laying hens, their preferences for huddling under a hover brooder, health concerns like "pasty butt," and feeding routines. The speakers then talk about lambs, a heifer, and pasture management, noting the animals’ dislike of separation and love of grass. Rabbits are introduced, with a humorous note about them screaming when a dog named Teddy disturbs them, and their favorite foods. The conversation shifts to piglets and market pigs, covering their feeding, fence‑testing behavior, and the speaker’s personal taste preferences for pork. The vlog also details dairy cows—Phyllis, her calf Polly, and the bull Stud Muffin—explaining milking, fly issues, breeding choices, and the historical significance of the American Milking Devon breed. Throughout, the speakers mention farm chores, tools (rubber gloves, nets, brooders, tripods), and family members (Lily, Gideon, Josiah) who help with daily tasks. The overall tone is informal, enthusiastic, and instructional, offering a snapshot of daily animal husbandry, animal personalities, and the family’s connection to their farm.
Chapters
Marlin looks like he likes to poop in the planter. Don't do that, Marlin. Oh, he is. He's pooping in the planter. Oh no.
Oh.
What'd you not like, Marlin? Affection? Come here, come here, come here, come here. Poor cat. Oh, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay. We'll get used to it after all. But you're all right, we like you. Josiah, what is Royal like?
Cat food.
You like to eat. What about Almanzo? What's he like?
He likes cat food, okay.
They like to kill squirrels. What do they dislike?
Well, they can't really eat a squirrel.
That's true. They kill it, they can't eat it. That's true. They don't eat it, do they? 100 meat chickens. Did you already fill up the feed?
Yeah.
What do sea monsters like, Gideon?
Speed.
They do. What do they dislike? Dirt and cold. When they're young, they dislike cold, don't they?
Poop's gonna get clogged up and they're gonna die.
Yeah, we need to get us a rubber glove. What do we got here? 15-ish, maybe 12-ish, 12-ish egg-laying chickens. Look at the difference. Put it right here beside it. This one's almost twice as big, twice as heavy, same amount of age. I'll tell you what these guys like. They like to huddle together. Under this hover brooder. I'll tell you what they don't like— pasty butt.
Everybody say ooh!
The cure for pasty butt. Here you go, Gideon, rip some. Shut it up for him.
Some for him.
How many chickens you got in here, Lily? 12-ish chickens. What's that?
A net to catch the baby chicks.
Oh, okay. Here's the mama. I got the mama.
I caught one!
Good job, man!
You're a chicken catcher!
What do you plan on doing with your chicks?
Putting them in a cage and on the grass.
Okay.
Now Papa, just put it right in the cage. Okay. Since this is our last.
You got Mom?
Yeah, I got Mom, and then I'll go back and get Victor Justin Justin. Mom's hard because Mom wants to just get out.
Why'd you do that? Why'd you get them out of the— there and put them on the grass?
Because I wanted to, so I could feed them and stuff.
Oh, so you wanted— okay, he said because he wanted to so he could feed them and stuff. Yes, we had a conversation yesterday. He feels like Lily's doing all those chores up there and he wants his own chores. 6 lambs and 1 heifer. They do not like being separated, as you can tell, but they love the grass on the other side even though we just moved them. Autumn doesn't mind behaving and staying in. Chilling under the shade in the afternoons. What do you—
rabbits, uh, they like grass and weeds, and they like food. Their food.
What do they dislike?
Um, they dislike Teddy.
Yeah, have you ever heard a rabbit scream. Did you know a rabbit could scream? Rabbits scream. Yes, they scream when Teddy bothers them in the cage. Good morning, cupcake. Good morning, Pound Cake. How you ladies doing? They like the grain, okay. But you know what they like better?
Food scraps.
Little pickup's trying to get in on it. Beefcake, here it comes. Beefcake likes mating the cake ladies, as you can tell. Mucho babies. Do you guys like being petted?
Yeah, you like being petted.
What about you cute little guys? You like being petted? Oh, kinda, kinda, not really. I'll tell you what they do like. They like running around. They're fast, these solid as a rock piglets. They like the, uh, nursing. They're taking it easy on you, Beefcake. I know you like to eat, but do you like to be petted? Oh, he likes it. He doesn't like it. What happens if you sit on him? He likes to make burrows.
It's probably warm.
Look at that. Or cool. All right, you got his manure covered?
Yes.
Thanks, Teddy. What you doing this morning? Ah, you getting some of the pig scraps? Is that what you like? Teddy does not like being away from Mama. I'm so surprised he's this far out. He's not that far. You think he knows that? No. You realize that, Teddy? She's just right there. Right there. 95-ish Cornish Cross. I call sea monster meat chickens. They do not like being wet. They love them some grain. They love them some fresh grass. Oh nice, here we go. Protection for those inside. I have seen crows take down chicks this size. Tripods, multi-purpose. 45-ish pasture chickens. How you ladies? How you doing this morning? Well, they're chicken. They like laying us lots of eggs. Look at that. They do not like me going in there when they're in there. Watch, she's gonna growl and bite me. No? All right, all right, I'll leave you to it, honey. Thanks, thanks for all the eggs. Meet my 10 market pigs. You guys hungry this morning? They like to always test the fence. They also love to underbrush. That's just a week, and believe me, these guys taste a lot better than goats. Generally, they like to nibble on me. No gusta, no gusta. So I guess if they're bothering you, nibbling on you, just touch them, right? Oh no, this one likes it. You get them long enough, you— they realize they like it. Look, they've even got up here and just went to town. Goodness, I love those pigs on here.
I was like, wow, they're helping us uncover this beautiful rock.
Gosh, I'd kiss them if they let me and wanted it. Why not?
Well, they— their pen has— they just poop everywhere and they probably lay down in it.
They probably root it too, don't they? Yeah, with their noses. Hey, let's get more food in there before they run out. Oh, one's already figured it out, coming after us. And flossy. We're drying Phyllis up because she's about to have a baby. She's the only one in milk right now that we're using. She does like a little rub right behind her ears. Behind the horn, you like that?
You can never get there with anything.
Oh, that's true. She doesn't like flies. She's not too keen on that. Nobody does.
The flies on Stud Muffin are insane.
You should see it. He does attract flies more than she does. Polly is Phyllis's kid, and you have very few flies. You can breed for that. You can observe who's giving milk, who's hardy, who doesn't get the flies. You're producing an oil that they don't like, huh? Polly probably loves alfalfa more than anybody. What would you say? There you go. Surprise! Loves being feisty. You love getting you some milk too, don't you? You love nursing. Good morning, Winnie! Good morning! We got some raw meat for you this morning. She loves raw milk. Now, nobody else in this paddock loves her. But she's protecting y'all, guys. She's protecting y'all. Next up, Stud Muffin. We named him that before he was a papa, but he's certainly lived up to his name. That's his child. That's his grandchild. That's his child. He's had mucho kids here. We appreciate Stud, and he is a handsome, handsome bull. He's an American Milking Devon, which is the cow of choice of the Pilgrims. That's what the Pilgrims brought over. They are hardy, they're good for milking, they are good for beef, and they are good as oxen. They are tri-purpose. We like them for their beef constitution, well, and milk constitution and hardiness. You breed that with a high milk producer Jersey and you get this hardy milking cow that has just— oh my gosh, that man, that guy, it tastes so good. Oh, he's so good. I never knew the hype around a ribeye until I had a ribeye from a, from an American Milk and Devon Jersey mix. Trust me, you ribeye eaters, you're missing out. I hope, I hope I can serve you some someday.
