Have I mentioned recently how much you all just rock? No? Well , you people rock! I can't express how much I appreciate all your thoughts, ideas and feedback. I am a tattooed , dreadlocked and pierced computer geek that suddenly took up farming and raising live stock. While I love every single...
Apples. When I am wiped out but just can't sleep yet I will eat an apple or maybe two sometimes if its really bad. Its a short term burst of good stuff to get you through.
My sweet husband insists that grapes are better and demanded that I tell you so :P
I think I am being over critical. I did ask for todays eggs. Which means he didn't get a chance to sort or maybe did not have enough better quality eggs from today to make a dozen?
Okay.. Lots and Lots of good points! So, I think we have decided 3.00 a dozen. What do you think about Not putting a price on the sign? I hadn't even considered someone would want to hatch the eggs. By spring all we will have is buffs and RIR's and they will be separated. I will be able to...
I agree with the others here, REFILL them :D Barring that, they clean up nicely and you can put things like powdered cocoa , baking mixes or flavored oils in them. Throw on a bow and some instruction and you have a cute little gift :)
We just had to replace the temp sensor module thingy in the out door oven for the exact same reason. I thought it was me or my oven, then I got one of those thermostats you hang in the oven ( less than 5 bucks ) and found that my oven temp simply wasn't shutting off when it was supposed to. It...
Wow! Thanks for all the insight. I wasn't very clear I guess. I do wipe the eggs off when they have anything at all on them, which is rare. Straight into the fridge huh? We typically leave them on the counter overnight, but I can see why going into the fridge right away is a better practice. We...
Okay, so my lovely girls are producing far more than we can eat. We thought about just putting a sign out saying we have eggs. What have I NOT thought of here? This is all very new to us and I read some stuff about baking soda washes or some stuff.. I don't get it. Is there some reason I can't...
I used to crochet all year long for the holiday gifts. My two sisters always managed to fight over who got the better item. Even when I started making them the EXACT same thing, they still found cause to fight. So, I quit. These days, those I really love get the handmade stuff year round. So, I...
Rhonda, I know exactly what you mean. I think for me its the sounds they make. Its almost hypnotic. Sometimes when I am really stressed, work and whatnot on my nerves, I will take a chair out and just hang out with them. All that happy buzzing just melts the stress away!
I am so sorry for your loss :(
I store my fleece in plastic bags if I am 100% certain they are completely dry and cardboard boxes if I am not so sure. I have two fleeces that need washed and they are in plastic bags and have been for several months. Your post reminded me of them , so I went and...
Please look this over. Its not just about salmon but about the 'standard' regulations.. its serious folks.. http://act.credoaction.com/campaign/gm_salmon/index2.html?rc=hlinko_20100914_salmon_ad3
Yeah, I feel like a total idiot now. Did I mention I am really new to this ?? ;)
I have been reading up on common illness and disease in birds, since we have so many. I wanted to be prepared with knowledge should someone get sick. Seems I made myself paranoid lol
Really ? They don't have much if any feathers on their heads. The younger turkeys I have have a full head of feathers. So, I am panicking about nothing again ? There's a shocker :lol: You wouldnt happen to have an idea of what breed they might be?
I posted this on BYC too but I figured I would get faster answers here. I am really worried about these little guys. I fear blackhead disease. I have had them for about 3 weeks. They were in a cage with some young silkies but the male was beating them up. So we took them out about a week ago...
