How are you? I'm good. And as we just said before I hit record, you guys have been up all night getting ready for things going on in your life. And I have some pretty good allergies kicking my ass this morning. So we're going to try to make this as good as we can. So you were saying that it's really muggy in Tennessee this morning? 00:54 It is. It's very humid and muggy and we're, it's dry enough for us to our hay. So we're getting our hay done right now. So. Says it feels like it's 87 degrees. Ugh, gross. Well, it's raining here. Just so listeners have a weather update from Minnesota to raining. Nice soaker. I'm really happy about this. This is good. So tell me about yourselves and what you do. So, um, we. 01:22 of course, own Rawly-Mae Farm. We started that in 2021. We are a first generation. We've both been around agriculture, our whole lives. But when we got started, Daniel was a police officer with the city of Cookeville and I was a special education teacher in White County. So we have 01:52 We both put in over 10-year careers in those before we were both able to step away to just doing the farm. We have two children, Eliza who is nine and Ralston who is seven. They are big into rodeo. We travel a lot with them and try to support them the best we can with all of their endeavors. 02:19 I think we have too many pets to actually name as far as the livestock and the dogs and stuff. But that's just kind of like a short snippet of our life. Okay, awesome. And I don't want to, I'm going to do the opposite of burying the lead on this one. You said that you are getting ready to sell your farm. So does that mean that you're getting out of this? 02:48 No, it means we have outgrown where we're at currently. So we are landlocked where we are at. The airport in our area owns the land for the majority around us. So there's nowhere for us to expand. And with the amount of animals that we currently house, 03:17 needing hay and just the production of it all, we're needing to expand. So we've been looking in White County for a farm that offers more acreage. Okay, good. Cause I was, I was afraid this was going to be a sad episode because I just talked to somebody last night and she did end up selling her farm, um, year or two ago and she's moved on to a new thing and she's very happy doing it, but she misses her farm a lot. 03:46 Yeah, so I was like, oh no, not a second one selling no Right No intentions to stop Good. Okay. So what do you guys do at Raleigh May? So we sell various livestock we focus mostly on menter cattle and highland cattle as well as various exotics like llamas alpacas, especially chickens 04:14 Polish, Silkeys, know, stuff like that. Mature donkeys are a big thing that we sell. And we do little bit of everything. I we travel all over the United States. I think we go to several livestock sales across the country. we recently, the first of last year, started doing our own deliveries, which has expanded to, you know, we're delivering to, I think we're up to 23 different states that we have delivered to or sold. 04:43 livestock to over the past three and a half four years Wow, okay, and did I see that you guys take in animals that that need a home as well We do we've got Various rescue animals a lot of times when we buy animals to resell They just stay here. We all fall in love with them and they don't go anywhere. So that's 05:10 One of the perks of the job is we get to see all kinds of animals and sometimes we like them too much for them to go anywhere else. They become part of your family? They do. They do. They're a large family. Yeah, it sounds like it. It sounds like you are overrun with family. Yes. We have new members of our family coming sometime in next two weeks. We have three barn kittens coming to live with us. Awesome. We just actually might. 05:38 My cousin just gave us, she was going to give us a couple of her barn kittens and it turned into six barn kittens. ...
