The straw needs protecting. In "COW UPDATE & Prepping for Heavy Rain on the Homestead," Linnea revisits last year's unwelcome discovery: free-ranging cattle had eaten her straw bales. This time, virtual fencing collars might help keep the returning animals where they belong, potentially saving her some work.
Linnea & Akela posted nothing new this week, but that October vlog is drawing the most daily views among the channel's older uploads. It has reached roughly 145,000 views, with a particularly satisfying small job tucked into the weather preparations: Linnea finally frames the studio's back window after more than a year.
Then come sealant between the log siding and a freestanding wood rack built from scrap lumber before sunset. The aim is practical, keeping rain out and firewood dry. In the description, Linnea says flooding followed filming, making those preparations especially welcome. The video includes a sponsored drink segment.
An earlier winter-prep vlog adds fall planting, homemade soup and a visit from Dave to the same seasonal workload. Together with a rain-themed Short, it remains among the uploads carrying the strongest daily momentum.
Across the catalog, the channel collected about 92,000 views over the week, while subscribers held steady. Daily viewing is below its usual pace. Nearby outdoors channels Kayli King and Big Water Guy had much busier viewing weeks; Linnea & Akela's weekly audience was closer in size to Ace Videos 2 and No-Till Growers, with those unfinished homestead jobs supplying the viewing.
