That's a good idea, Terrie! Tanya

Unless it's rotten...you should be able to dry it, then feed it to them, not all at once of course. It would be sprouted grain then, and that's pretty healthy. When I sprout grain, the water sometimes doesn't get changed when it should, and we all have been fine, as long as I rinse it good...

My 6 and a half year old just lost her first tooth, about 2 weeks ago. She's my last kid (I have 4 daughters). I almost cried! No more 1st teeth that are wiggly! Awwwwww..... Tanya

Gossip! the only good thing about gossip is once in a while people actually get the facts straight! that's how we got house sitters for 2 weeks while we go away starting this Sunday! People (whom we knew) said, "By the way, we heard from so and so that..." It worked for us, and it sold the...

We used an old waterbed bag, cheaper than the pond liner. We've used it for 7 years, no holes, holds well. But it is shiny blue/green in color, if your ducks can handle it! Tanya

ZooMommy, that is hilarious! Thanks for sharing your kids antics...I have 4 daughters, oh, my! The stories I have saved up! Tanya

Miss_Jayne, your buns are mine! I copied and printed, and now I'm baking...will let you all know how they turn out! Tanya w/flour on her nose...

Thanks for posting here first! I have everything for next year already (almost ) but I do really appreciate you posting here! There are lots of us homeschoolin' nutcases here, and you know we just 'need' more stuff! Tanya

Could it be her full crop from eating or drinking? They get a full crop on the right sid eof the breast. Tanya

Thanks for all the great answers! I want a family cow (shortly in the future, God-willing). Our friends jersey gave so much milk, so much cream on top, and it all got used around their place. The pigs, the chickens, them (us sometimes, yummy), and several foster calves. It was great, and I...

morelcabin, I am with about oil of oregano! That stuff is wonderful . I put a few drops in an empty capsule, close it and swallow. It helps my sinus issues quite well. Clears your sinuses and helps everything else out while it's at it! The only thing I don't like is the burping afterward...

Thanks, Parson'swife! I added my location in the weather catagory, and put it in my favorites. The almanac is probably closer than the weather dudes here. Tanya

Ruth, I would love to say it is a farm, but really we are just on a large lot. The buildings you probably are referring to are the town grain elevators and a seed storage building. The hill with concrete and pipe on it is the old town cistern, which is right behind our property to the west...

Those chickens are kinda funky looking! It looks like cornish -cross trunk legs...that's all I know! Do you think you and DH will process them? Tanya

I'm so sorry pet! How dare those chickens worm their way into our hearts? Tanya :aww

Cool, Ted! And Tanya

Alright, a little update... Storm rolling in So I took some quick pics... Before bringing them in! They have had a long day! They did well! I will post more tomorrow. Tanya

If the green bugs are aphids, you can get rid of them naturally (fairly, anyways) by taking a spray bottle with warm water and a tsp of dishsoap. I've done it to my roses and it works, but you need to be very liberal when you spray! Tanya

Hey, Ruth! I have posted on your threads before, I really enjoy what you have had to say about naturally raising your animals. Even with a few losses, they are happier and healthier. These babies actually haven't had any heat lamp at all. Not from birth. After they dried out, they were put...

I use vinegar too, but 1 tbsp to 1 cup. It works for my family, and I got the hint from my MIL. Great cook, that woman! Tanya
