I have some wheat berries, I could share a few pounds with anyone if they wanted to try to sprout them!

I made something like a flock block yesterday, it didn't have anything like raw egg in it. I didn't bake it, but I was going to make some more today, I'll definitely try this, thanks for posting the link! I didn't know cayenne had so many good uses. I put ACV in their waterer. I was told it...

Quote: Anarchy, I wish I had known you needed Costco and Mill and Feed stuff yesterday my partner did a run in to Anchorage and stopped at both places. He goes into town at least 2 days a week, we would love to do some sort of coop thing! I feel so bad I haven't been on for so long, so much...

Thank you all for the welcome! Ban Seabhag, congrats on the moose!! My partner and I have always wanted to go moose hunting; but if we actually did get one, then what next... It can't be that much different to clean than a turkey, can it?

Thank you all for the warm welcome! It is beautiful up here this fall. Bundick, we have had a black bear mom and two cubs roaming around. They have checked out our rabbits in their trailer, but the footprints show they have kept their distance, we watch over the rabbit trailer much more closely...

They will probably be fine if you integrated now. Our 6 month old domestic turkeys and 8 week old wild/royal palm crosses, have been together for about 3 weeks and get along great. They were integrated slowly; for a week we put the little ones in the chicken trailer in the corner of the turkey...

Hello all, I am so happy I found this forum and website! I live, with my family of five, in Palmer Alaska, on a small, peaceful homestead up Lazy Mountain. We are new to living on a homestead, but not entirely new to living the lifestyle. My partner and his family raised chickens and other...
