We bought 90 acres of raw land and are currently in the process of turning it into our dream farm. The future may hold livestock, chickens, and various greens, but the main crop we'll be growing is our four kids.
In addition to our journey as first-generation farmers, as a jack of all trades, I plan on posting lots of DIY and How-To videos related to carpentry, automobile repair, parenting, and finance.

How to Raise Ducks From Tractor Supply
We'll teach you everything we learned while raising ducks we bought from Tractor Supply Co. In this video we'll tell you what to buy and how much it'll cost. We'll cover brooding, heat lamps, bedding, feed, supplements, and more. We'll tell you safety concerns along with tips and tricks that we picked up along the way. Best of all, you'll get to see our dog June, who ultimately became our ducks' mother. She'll quack you up.

get a water softener dingus
That's exactly right. However, the whole point of getting these tankless are to save money and water softeners aren't cheap.
This is why they need to be serviced... Better get that vinegar out.
This was a new building with a new unit about 2 months old. With hard water, you'd have to service it about once a month and even then you would still have issues. It's not the unit that clogs. It's everything downstream.
Thanks for the video. I am going to try the apple cider vinegar today. My poor guy has been in the ER for 3 days and we finally got him back. He’s on meds and has a new diet, but he’s still in pain trying to push out his pee and not moving a whole lot. He’s even resorted to lying in the litter box for hours. He’s not the same guy and I really want to help him clear his crystals so he can get back to normal. It makes me sad to see him like this. Crossing my fingers and praying we get him fully functional again.
That looks like you stuffed the calcium into the pipe. 🙄
Also that’s not superheated.
@@GudrezBilly no, there is a filter that catches it and it continues to pack in until it fully clogs. Superheat is not being referred to in a scientific definition here. It is being referred to as how the plumbing industry commonly uses it.
@@FarmDad I’m in the plumbing industry and have yet to hear someone use superheat when talking about water heaters. Even when working with non-superheated boilers I have yet to hear that mistake.
@@GudrezBilly must be your area of the country because I hear it all the time. Just a quick Google search brought up tons of articles where they use the term with tankless heaters. Here's one: www.neyerplumbing.com/blog/water-heater-service/pros-and-cons-tankless-water-heaters/
Just an update: It's been 10 days since I took the video's advice and my cat's health is fully up to scratch. I would encourage anyone to disseminate this info to their cat loving relations and to show their appreciation to @FarmDad for saving both cats lives and for saving their owners a ton of money. Bravo FarmDad, Bravo.!
Wow! Thank you so much for your kindness! I am thrilled your cat is doing better! Wishing you both the very best!!!
Thanks Farm Papi, just the video i was looking for!
Glad it helped!
1 time great I subscribed
Thank you!
Thanks for the tip it worked! 😊
Most welcome!
nice job on removing the refrigerant from the system. DA
Never mind the subject of this video, the way he presents his methods is down home and a pleasure to watch. And your right, to have to take them somewhere would be a pain in the royal ass. Your sense of accomplishment is evident in this vid. Keep up the good work brother !!!!
Hello sir it's urgent plz reply me ... I have given my cat acv yesterday night ..and since morning it is peeing everywhere he is sitting .I want to know for how long does it pee like this .. should I give some more acv ?
Just clean your shat
Great informative video. We bought our house new 22 yrs ago, company that installed hardwired alarm system drilled holes through our new windows and blew our window warranty immediately. We are now getting all new windows but not new doors, we need window warranty so being told it’s not possible. I admit I haven’t finished your video yet, so you may address this problem. I don’t want wireless alarm due to batteries plus now these “gangs” I’ve read about are knocking home WiFi out and breaking in because no WiFi, no alarm. I’m at a complete loss of what to do. Doubt you have time to answer but we need to safely disconnect existing hardwired system before new window install but not sure if we can tape off wires coming through windows and stuff them in for concern of causing fire or if we can just cut at main box. A local company told me not to do either and let them do but figure they’d do what I can do?
worked on my freightliner buddy , thank you
I wonder if the same applies when you put on a new compressor and can’t get it to take any 🤔 it’s like it’s clogged.
Yes it still applies.
Why does mine go on red and cant feel it?
This is good to know info if in a pinch, or tight budget. For me? Nah. After all the exertion, wear and tear on the back and shoulders, I'd rather simply do the Ergo thing....take it to a tire dealer and let them use their tire machine and pay the 20 bucks. Lol
Outstanding video! Exactly what I needed to know to get the AC running.
Glad to hear that 👍👍
Is that a washing machine
Yes. It does this at every fixture that has hot water.
Thanks dude just saved us $90 plus tax!
Love hearing that!
Any vinegar can?
It needs to be apple cider vinegar
Nice video learned to use the gauge now. If I had to ding anything it would be when you pull the vacuum where does the oil in the system go and you didn’t show putting oil back in just showing adding the can of Freon.
Thank you. Vacuuming does not pull oil from the system. Since this system was evacuated and then immediately refilled, it did not require oil.
@@FarmDad thanks a billion, the ding was removed 😅
Help! Im doing this and seems not working. 😢. My cst is not eating too. 😢
This doesn't always work. It's a last resort. Seek veterinary care, if possible. It's common that a cat won't eat while suffering from a urinary blockage.
@@FarmDad thank you. I guess im just really anxious. We gave him the acv just now. My husband carried him and peed on him (blood pee) i think it made him better. Thank you! Thank you! Will continue to do this.
Thanks, will have to see if it'll work for my ride
👍
$3k for an unblockage where I’m from, I’ve gone to two clinics and they quoted the same unfortunately I couldn’t afford his second treatment so we’re trying to manage with just medicine. I hope I don’t have to say goodbye too soon. My flutd cat is only 3 years old 😞
What happened
Rent an exchangable water softener.
I did this and now my car damn near stalls whenever the compressor turns on.
Your problem is unrelated to doing this.
or, hear me out.... you can add a whole house filter AND flush the heater at least once every 6 months, you know like the owners manual suggests
The well has a whole house filter. And this building was only about 2 months old when I filmed this, so flushing every six months wouldn't help. By the way, the owners manual says to flush once a year.
Thank you! I recently picked up a Massey Ferguson 165. the controls are similar to yours. been looking for a video like this
Congrats on your purchase! And I'm glad this helped out.
3 wire????
If there are 3, you are at the wrong sensor
hey thanks for the video. im curious what is the reading on the gauge normally if the ac compressor doesnt work? because i tried earlier without watching this video first and the gauge was stuck in the red the whole time. even though my system is completely empty. im thinking maybe it was red because the compressor wasnt staying on but idk.
if you dont want that, use CLR from time to time and it wont build up like that.
2:50 the measuring part
They say put soapy water around the seal, then look for bubbles
He’s so cold car for start with due process..,,
I think you just helped me find the noise I’ve been hearing in my other express van.
Sweet. Glad this helped.
The problem with a lot of these DYI videos is the camera angles are not clear. I could really use a well lit close up of what you are doing.
Thank you so much for posting this video. My cat, THX-1138, was at death's door and your advice cured him within several hours. I can't thank you enough!
Many, many thanks to you too! I have to say I absolutely love the name of your cat and I am glad to hear this helped him out. Make the switch to wet cat food now. I think there is some other helpful preventative advice in the pinned comment too. Thanks again!
@@FarmDad The vet doesn't get it when I write, 'State Rodent Control Operative THX-1138' on the name line of his admission form.
@@ducttapetech9885 🤣🤣
Thanks, you were dead on.
No problem. Glad to hear it.
My 2020 Lincoln engages the clutch and keeps it engaged, but I still cannot charge the system. I put in like half a small bottle and the hand gauge reads very high right away. What do you think can be the issue?
You may have overcharged your system. Check online to see what pressure you should have in relation to the outside temperature. Also, always replace the cabin filter if it has one and clean the condenser for a more accurate reading.
And that build up was on the back of the washing machine. Not the tankless
Correct
Just wanted to let you know that your tip saved me 350.00 and I am one VERY happy camper and now a subscriber!
Well hearing this makes me very happy as well!
It either builds up in your fixtures with a tankless hot water heater, or it builds up in your water heater with a tank type
It's the speed at which it builds up that's the problem. Much faster with a electric tankless.
@@FarmDad electric tankless heaters are not very good anyway they take way too much electricity, propane, or natural gas tankless are the way to go and if you wanted to, you could solve the buildup issue coming out of the water heater by putting a whole house water filter on the hot side
Thank you very much for this video. My cat had a full blockage after 4 days of suffering and this video truly helped. We had better results with this ACV method, than with a vet (he got the antibiotic shot from the vet, but he wasnt getting better. Even though he no longer peed pink urine all over the house, over time he couldnt pee at all!). We decided to take him to the vet again in the morning, but we were freaking out and thats when we discovered your video. We didnt end up going to the vet, because he was so much better in the morning. ,You saved us a few thousand dollars. Regarding dosage for people asking about what we did, since my cat is about 8 lbs, we gave him 1 dose of 5-10ml (1-2tsp), he started foaming in the mouth, and hid from me. But the next morning he started peeing (1 drop lol), but by the end of the day, he seemed back to normal. We plan to give him another dosage tonight, just in case. ALSO- my hub called our vet to see if ACV method was safe for our kitty, and the vet said NOT to do anything, because we could end up rupturing his bladder. After arguing with my hub for an hour, I decided to ignore him and give him the ACV while hub was in the bathroom (because I was heartbroken and was afraid he would die- very desperate). If my cat had died because of me, it would've been divorce lol. So THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. With that said, PLEASE DO take your kitty to the vet first if possible, because not all blockage is caused by UTI. It could be stones (also deadly) your cat is dealing with and this method wont work on that.
Forgot to add, ratio was 1:1- ACV/Water.
You did perfect!!! I am thrilled your cat is better.
Fake news
Nope. 100% real. Research hard water and electric tankless water heaters.
With my 2014 Range Rover Sport with a R1234-yf system, the shop manual makes a big point of not leaving a vacuum to sit before filling. Not sure why, but I did what they said with my compressor, condenser and drier replacement. So check it’s ok with your system before letting it sit with a vacuum.
My compressor pumps the air and then everything leaks out once pump is shut off. If I manually turn on pump via 12v. The shocks do hold air, but as soon pump is connected to pump and if turns on and then off the air leaked out. Am going mad with this issue
Very helpful video. Thanks again Helpful videos you put up. I'm a new subscriber. Wish I found you years ago. Lol
Thank you! Glad you found me 👍👍
Old video but what size air compressor is needed to get the bead on? I only have a 3 gallon baby compressor lol
That will be too small. I don't know an exact size minimum, but you want something that can put some air volume into the tire quickly. I was using a 20 gallon Ingersoll rand garagemate here.
I put 2 cars and a 4x4 on each side of the tire . Drove up on it and it went down but never broke the bead.
That tire on good. Did you try using a board?
