    Unless you are into exhibition, and if you haven't already done, you might consider crossing your breeds for hybrid vigor.The benefits are many, for the birds' health and overall well being. The offspring will be a good bit larger (in the first generation) and the amount of feed should remain...

    Not too much involved. you need 3 or 4 ingredients...the 4th would be .5 cup of water if the butter milk is very thick. I never measure anything so I will have to try to guess as close as I can and you may have to make some adjustments for your altitude and results of the first batch or two...

    That brand evades me... I actually don't know if we save money by baking our own bread...in fact, it might cost more but we both love homemade bread and we enjoy making it. I use my granny's biscuit recipe just about every Sunday morning, with buttermilk and also butter for shortening...

    I guess people use whatever they get used to.

    It's fine to use King Author's Tutorial but....be sure to use Hudson Cream flour!!!

    Good on Panera. Too many folks really do NEED help. I hate hear of anyone being hungry but children being hunger anywhere in the world but no kid should be hungry in the U.S....And I mean NONE. I've been a little uncomfortable due to lack of food due to circumstances like getting carried...

    More people can 'divine' than realize it. I use two good quality metal coat hangers...it really works. There are likely several springs....form a foot to a few feet down that never show themselves or are seen only in periods of heavy rain. Many of these springs run year 'round. You might be...

    You could easily make a fairly good sized pond in two or three days with a Bobcat. Amazing little machines that almost anyone can operate with a minimum of effort. If you could rent one for about 3 days (cost of roughly $300.00), a wonderful pond for the ducks could be yours and with just a...

    Lehman Bros. Has a lot of great stuff. You should order a catalog. In your case, I think a pond would be almost worthless because the ducks will trash it, no good for drinking water. Getting water from your well will be so much cleaner to drink and cook with. Turk

    Look at this...a rope can be used to pull the water by hand or a pulley system can be used to lift the water with ease. https://www.lehmans.com/p-1384-lehmans-own-galvanized-well-bucket.aspx In this situation I had to ask dad. I knew he would either have one or know where they could be...

    Dad has an artesian well and no pump is required...It flows non-stop and has the most wonderful water that seems ice cold, no matter what season. Of course, the water can't be any colder than 50* or 55* but I guess the well house just makes it feel colder. I'd love to have one but along with...

    My partner and I both have good jobs and our home is paid for....I inheritated it from my grand mother but even with that, don't feel we can afford to buy beef on any regular basis. With all the other costs of living, taxes, legal fees..etc, the money is just 'hoovered up'. Luckily, we are...

    Two dead so far....There was almost no blood..very little. That is what is so surprising to me. The original 'cadavers' actually bled more than the live patients. Jason and dad are going home tomorrow so they should get your 'care package' out to you very soon. Turk

    My educational back ground/career sort of gives me a leg-up in dealing with surgical instruments, spreaders etc. Jason brought me one of his 'old' kits that he has had for a long time. They were made in China and are better than many that can bought now...according to Brother. Turk

    Today was the last of my lessons. I would never have tried this without expert help. Out of 25.... two have died but the rest seem ok. It will still be a few days before I know about the final verdict on the full count but I'm hopeful. The first thing my instructors did was use two of my 5...

    The milk and cream are both VERY white so it is difficult to see the layer of cream that rises. It is hard to skim the little bit of cream for just a bit of butter. It does separate quite efficiently with a separator and the butter is delicious!!! For the persons who were discussing...
