    Yes he was a house dog....I know I know. He is almost two years old and only weighs 85 lbs! He was eating nasty pedigree food. Diamond high protein is what we use and he ate about six cups of it this morning. I am not sure he even knows his name. He has done well on his first day. He has already...

    Our pit bull has taken quite a few coons without damage to her but she sleeps inside with our baby and is a big baby herself. We had a German shepherd that killed every furry critter in sight but he also decided one day to kill 14 chickens so he got rehomed far away from chickens. We just...

    Presently battling a raccoon!!! He has outsmarted my live trap twice and I caught him climbing down my chain link pen...I got a shot off but I don't think I got him. He killed a juvenile jersey giant rooster last night. Poor guy didn't go to bed with the others. We are just having the worst...

    Horse drawn mower

    We just brought home a McCormick new big 4 horse drawn sickle mower. Does anybody have experience with these. It appears I only need to replace the yoke and pitman arm, and lots and lots of lube. The ring gear is in great shape as well as the clutch and drive assembly but the pitman gear is...

    Hey all haven't been on in a while very very busy..... Had a very scary close call Saturday night, coming home with the wife and daughter in the car when we hydroplaned over a guard rail into 6 feet of overflowing creek. We had to climb onto the roof of the truck and wait for fire rescue...

    We have a mountain out here in butler county so dont count that possibility out. I have never heard her scream but I have caught her on game cameras. Everyone says they dont live out here. We also have some coyote wild dog mixes that are almost wolf sized.

    finished up the wall framework today. And set the subfloor. I havent done any framing since I was in the air force about ten years ago but I am picking it back up and content with whats done so far. And I am also out of 2x4s so back to cutting up some more huge pallets. I am considering some man...

    got a new coop going up as weather permits. It is sitting on a pallet I got from work, it was used to ship a kenworth daycab. Its probably 300lbs of overkill. Its about 8'×6' with 6' walls. We will be building a walk in door with a pop up for the birds, and an entire wall for nesting boxes with...

    My adopted dog killed my rooster and 4 chickens...

    Wow...abused dog...coming from the same forum who suggests tying a dead chicken around their neck for days. I didnt say hold the dog down and drown it. It should be assumed the misbehaving dog was caught in the act and adjusted. You certainly can rub a nose in feces if caught in the act. My dogs...

    My adopted dog killed my rooster and 4 chickens...

    To stop a dog from digging holes, find a hole she dug. Fill it to the top with water. Stick the dogs head in it. They dont like getting submerged and has worked for me in the past with boxers and labs

    @sharol hey your campines have been fully integrated into my flock and are doing great! On a side note they only like to eat scratch from my hand, not interested in what spills out hahaha. They have now taught my other birds to line up at the pen gate for treats! I a few weeks they will be...
