The new "stock" tank we got 2 years ago has yet to see any "stock" drink out of it... But it has made a great brooder, kids pool, and makeshift shelter for ducks when flipped upside down.
It's currently being used by the cat to get out of the rain... At least, I THINK that's a cat... :hide
You know... I posted that and laughed about it, and when I walked around the house this afternoon to greet the girls from the bus, THERE was OUR duck pool, a quarter mile away... Doh! :P
Yeah, those things are EXPENSIVE! Lol glad we got ours back or I'd have been a double loser today :D
Ever see one of those blue pools blowing across a field and you run home to make sure its not yours?
Then kick yourself for not snagging it while you had the chance, because by now its probably in Nebraska?
:( bye free duck pool.....
Yeah, he's been banded already, no tailless genetics for him in the future :P
Reminded me of Norman, my bottle calf when I was little... And all those packages in the deep freeze labeled "Norman" burger and "Norman" roast...
Bob burgers ;)
Ha! Now I know YOU guys are rednecks, because you actually got that :lau
Lol its no fun telling people my goat dream when they just look at me with a blank stare and I know they didn't get it :P
My mom is fun to mess with that way. She had a bull calf born yesterday without a tail, so I told...
Hey, they work good for puppies too lol ;)
I want a goat! We have this big weedy area that's really hard to mow, so I want a billy goat..I'll dye him green and yellow... His name will be John Goat :D
Ok....lol you guys get the award for the strangest use of a coffee can that I have ever heard :P
I'm actually kinda speechless lol..that's rare :D
We always end up having to go find a cornfield when the kids inevitably have to potty 5 miles from the house...oh! That reminds me of one time...
Ha-ha, that's what we call the "pool".. We picked up a stock tank for brooding chicks in, and now its the girls swimming pool in summer. Being as we can't fill those cheap kid ones for the girls without the ducks immediately running over and pooping in them. :P
I'm a horrible coffee can...
Beats getting hay in your pants ha-ha :D
I admit, its easy and usually right there coincidentally blowing by as we struggle to hold our pants up and work... You know, because we can't just buy smaller pants or go find the belt :P
Oh those ARE a pain! Put it in the back if the truck and drive crossways across a stubble field; that'll shake those paint cans right up! :D
And if you're anything like me, you'll find your whatchamacallit as soon as you buy another one, or you'll find it in the cupboard next to the mixer ;)
Oh, lol I was envisioning a burly Popeye type hoisting a deer into the back of a civic :D
Still envisioning... now, a smaller, Popeye type hoisting a smaller deer in a civic.. Hey at least then you could use the carpool lane to get to work :P
Lol that sounds about right :D
I was so mad about losing his head that I completely forgot about the 500# of meat we left laying there... Thanks for reminding me haha :P
That kinda reminded me of when we totaled our car with a buck...a huge buck! Prettiest rack.... We got the car home and turned around to go back and get him, well at least his head, and it was already gone! And this was at like 2 am!
Grrr rednecks stole my trophy bucks head. I was gonna put his...
I don't know if they're 100% to blame on this one lol.. The gale force wind is blowing cornstalks from the field directly to the north into every nook and cranny of the house whenever we open the door!
The feathers, now I know I can blame a few of those on just plain tracking them in on their...
