    Crazy fermentation question

    THE EXPERIMENT... Let's see how this goes... Day 1: Before giving my T-rexes their feed which had been fermenting for three days, I strained out some of the "cultured" water and ran it through a coffee filter to remove any solid matter. This left me with me 50 grams which I matched with 50...

    Crazy fermentation question

    Is it possible to use SCOBY, the liquid part (filtered to remove any solid matter), to "kick start" a sourdough bread starter?

    Henopause at 3??

    OK, she's still healthy otherwise, I was just wondering because I have never had a hen stop so early before.

    Henopause at 3??

    Hi, i know I haven't been on in a while, but I have a question, Last March Sparkle, my SL Wyandotte layed three meager eggs, like starter eggs, then stopped and hasn't dropped anything since. I took her to a vet, she said she didn't see any evidence of her being egg bound. She eats normally...

    Stopped laying and losing feathers

    She's probably molting. Feathers, unlike hair, do not continuously grow out, but they do wear out. So birds have evolved to simply shed them periodically and grow new ones. Since the need protein to manufacture all this new fluff, egg production stops temporarily. Also, some breeds stop laying...

    How Do Y'all Keep Your Duck Pool Clean Longer?

    When I lived in So. California we had ducks and geese. Each had their own pools; a small kiddie pool for the ducks and a larger pool for the geese. As you might imagine after a few days (especially in the summer) they would get rather - uh - 'ripe'. However we also had a vegetable garden so I...

    I'm still waiting for winter to arrive. We've been having spring-like weather here in the Carolina's since last fall. :rolleyes:

    Show off your first eggs

    Well, my three hatched back in the middle of August so I figured I had until Valentine's day at least to get their nesting boxes finished. I should have figured they would throw a monkey wrench into my plans when Ruffnut started squatting at my feet three days ago....
