Congrats Piglet and family, Happy Birthday Oz.

There is a lovely tiara pic of you floating about Hope you all had a great day.

The tiara pic will not cross over. One has to be careful falling asleep near a four year old princess fanatic.

thanks Dave. Keep the articles coming

Our litter costs are zero as we get rice hulls for free. I have them changed monthly and they go into the compost pile.

On their own rice hulls are very slow to breakdown buy in a hot compost environment, along with pig poop and sawdust, The can be ready to ammend a garden in 6 weeks.

Oz, is it purely rice hulls? Did you mix any organic microorganism to it?

in the coops its rice husks - normally milled just a few days/weeks before.

in the compost its rice husks/chicken poop as well as sawdust/pig poop.

rice hulls have little bits of rice still in them here and there.... The microorganiszms come in the poooo...... I used them for both my horse and my chickens...

though the Drought has shut down their production.... Sigh.

California is a big rice producer up around the Sacremento area...

Hahahahaa, sorry about bringing that pic up, well I'm sort of sorry.

If it makes you feel any better you are not alone. Yesterday I snapped a pic of my wife on FB, she had dozed off with her phone in her hand and her thumb would occasionally move and keep the screen active, the kids and I were in silent hysterics watching on.

Hope you are having a good day all the same.

A hint would be nice, can/should I do a google search?
Wondering now what all a body might find?
