Woohoo, 10 days left til Wolf Lake!! So who all's going?

Thats funny! Actually, I was the same way as a child, although I grew up with my folks raising our own beef, hogs & dairy cattle. I ate the pork and drank the milk, but when it came to eating the steers (Steve or Eric) I'd throw up. Finally my dad caught on and started telling me it was one he'd...

We will be at the May 5th, 2012 swap. Got some RIR (st run), Barred Rock (st. run), & Isa Brown (pullet) chicks that will be about about 5 & 6 weeks old then. I'm getting $5 each on these chicks, they are looking great, getting big fast. I have a younger batch of RIR (st run) & Barred Rock (st...

My best friend was down there and had Flemish, I can give her your email if you Pm me. I'm not sure if she'll have any more babies, but she may have an adult or 2 for next month.

We went. Sprinkled a tad, not too bad though. Lots to see. I picked up a real nice trio of white bantam cochins, a nice pair of black standard cochins, and a beautiful standard blue cochin with red shoulders who I plan to cross onto my partridge cochin hens, we'll see what happens there. My...

Hey guys, I FINALLY did it!! After 2 years of personal issues I've come full circle, and I just set 43 cochin eggs from my own ladies. YEAH ME!! I'm so excited. I've got a new guy in my life and this is all new to him and to have someone be interested in what i'm doing is SO cool. Yeah he...

I like horseback riding, hiking with my kids, SO, and dogs, woodburning, writing, hunting, fishing, cooking, doing homesteading stuff, going on vacations & taking pictures of all the above ~Tracy

Just a thought here, but i'd give it a go if i was in your situation. If you have a farrier that you know is quiet and tolerable (and open to weird suggestions), and who you also know won't be moving anytime soon (or going out of business), see if you can hire them on a regular basis (hopefully...

The best way i've heard to describe bloat, for a visual, is to fill a balloon only 1/4 full with water, don't tie it shut, then grab both ends of the balloon and swing it around in a circle (as a big dog would do if they exercised, even minimally, after eating or drinking). The middle of the...

I'd love to, pm me your zipcode, sign dimensions, type of wood if you have a preference, and what type of font/size you choose for writing...oh and if u have a preferred breed of chicken for your pic. As I said, i've a busy next couple of days, but i'll try to get back with you asap!

Did you find a taker for your ladies lodge? I make wood burned signs (pyrographic art) to order, although I have no pics saved on this computer (or apparently anywhere on the internet since I changed my providers, I haven't updated). It would be a day or 2 to get you a pic. Tonight will be a...

My long lost sisters!! LOL I have a serious cookbook compulsion. Sometimes I spend $30+ on a cookbook just for one recipe that I never ever use again, but hey, it's there if i need it! We moved twice last year and that was the only thing that I was seriously worried about getting wet. I...

Katy thanks! I love what you do with your family. I've had so many changes in the past year, that just to have SOMETHING on a schedule is great. I am a single mom working 2 jobs and raising 2 teenagers, and we live 40 minutes from their school and where I work. Meals are hectic, groceries...

LOL!! That's so true, i rarely have any left for the birds, the kids inhale it all. As soon as we hit the door their on us, skwak, skwak, where's the goodies, treat lady?? This batch turned out great. I had some in a smoothie last night, and today i mashed up strawberries and took it all...

Ok, I made 2 more quarts tonight...the first time in probably a year or so. We have a foreign exchange student from Germany staying with us and she helped me make it. Said her mom makes it once in awhile back home. Doesn't do it like this she said I'll pop on tomorrow and let ya'll know how...

I came across what i thought was a good deal at Meijer last month..it was a pressure cooker $50 marked down to $22...at the time i wondered if it was the same as a pressure canner, and now know the difference! Thanks guys. So you can use it the exact same way, just in smaller quantities? I...
