    You did just the right thing, CC! Pretty soon you'll not have to top it with the dry and they'll go crazy for the FF like they'd always had it. Now....you may want to zip tie a piece of welded wire over your dish so they can't walk in it because soon you may see feet with hardened feed dried...

    You'll find you'll want to put your water in first and that what you have right now is not enough water, so, yeah...it needs to look more like soup than stew. It generally works out to be the same amount of water to the same amount of feed to get a consistency that you can actually feed out...

    Amish Friends

    Not that I'm aware of....across the river in OH, maybe, but not in WV. Here's a little run down on Amish in WV~ https://amishamerica.com/amish-communities-west-virginia/ Plenty around our borders in OH, PA, MD and not as many in VA...mostly Mennonites in VA. We've got areas of Mennonites in...

    Amish Friends

    Nah....the coldest part is near the eastern panhandle and a little north of it, where the larger mountains are located. The northern panhandle is about the same as where I live.

    Amish Friends

    I'll be heading to Amish country next weekend for a girls' weekend with sibs and my mother. They have good food, good flea markets and beautiful farms to see. Where in WV are they moving? Likely close to PA or MD, which both have large Amish populations.

    Mine never were but then I free range mine after 2 wks of age, so all the poop is not concentrated in one place. ;) That's one reason I don't get CX in the late fall/winter.

    Coronavirus Concern Up

    Sorry, but you've lied once again, which has become a bad habit for you during this 'rona drama. I've never once in my life mentioned Chloroquinine and I'm a nurse, so that's saying a lot. ;) I usually have you on ignore, but Miss Lisa is not easily riled, so I figured I'd check out which...

    I sent him the link to TikkTokks blog site that answers all the questions on FF. I keep my FF on the back porch/mud room in the winter...it stays about 40-50 in there and the FF will still ferment right along as long as it's properly backslopped and all. I keep two buckets going so that it...

    Stopped and talked to a shepard

    Not sure about any of that, but I've read where folks will keep a longhorn cow in the herd to protect the rest of the cows and calves from coyote predation. Could be she would protect your eventual sheep flock in the same manner. It's a good price for any cow and calf combination...you can...

    You don't need buttermilk to ferment feed, CC. Just feed and water, 50* temps and a little time, then just backslop each time to mix up a fresh batch. https://tikktok.wordpress.com/2014/04/13/fermented-feed-faq/

    Ventilation and lots of it. I'd pop that window wide open and you'll likely need more venting than that as they grow. Good eatin'!

    No need to show it to him, as he is practicing his "discernment" on such things.... ;)

    Here, Miss Lisa....I'll put it right out there in black and white, copied from your link....and wonder who will, presented with facts, still deny the truth of it all. Johns Hopkins Study Saying COVID-19 Has 'Relatively No Effect on Deaths' in U.S. Deleted After Publication by MATT MARGOLIS...

    Granddaughters

    I agree....I think that Heaven will be filled with children's laughter, as it's the sweetest sound on Earth and I imagine it's the same there. I too an fully blessed and enriched by my granddaughters and if more than a few days go by without seeing them, I start to feel lonely for them. They...

    officially firewood season has started for me

    So, finally got around to putting in firewood, as we've been so very busy with other things this season....left it kind of late, I know, but we are having unseasonably warm weather in which to gather it, so I'm thanking the Lord for that! The logging we had done left a giant pick up sticks...

    Deer rub/scrape

    A single strand of hot wire around knee high to an average man will do the trick and you don't have to bait the line....they are curious enough to sniff it to gauge the height for jumping it and will get the zap. We kept them out of gardens like this for over 40 yrs, never had a deer cross the...

    How can I make a duck scarf, to protect my ducks neck from a drake?

    It's not likely that you can accomplish what you want, as the perimeters you need and the duck's neck design are not compatible, so just separating the drakes from the hens or providing enough mating opportunities for a drake that a single duck isn't getting over mated will likely help more than...
