    Is it a problem hatching a single turkey poult? Will it hang out with the chickens? Or do you have to integrate it into your turkey flock?

    Isn’t fermented feed alcoholic??

    Regarding kombucha... I make my own. It is non-alcoholic. I can knock back a 16 oz bottle on an empty stomach and my 120 lb body does not even get to the "feeling good" stage. The grocery store I shop at sells only the "may contain trace amounts of alcohol" kind of kombucha, and anyone can buy...

    When you run with one-less-frame than what the box holds, do you just space them out as evenly as possible/

    What did you do in the garden today?

    The purpose of the buckwheat is to keep the weeds at bay. It sprouts quickly, has decent sized leaves right away, and thus shades out the weeds. If it flowers, that would be great for the honeybees. It doesn't fix nitrogen, and doesn't tolerate frost at all, so I don't have to worry about it...

    Michigan Thread - all are welcome!

    Deer have taken all the leaves off my hostas. The plants are about 10 feet from the front porch.

    Your tagline, "Finding success by learning from failure" makes me think of a book I recently read. Antifragile: Things that Gain from Disorder by Nassim Nicholas Taleb Highly recommended!

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Just as a cover crop. The first frost will kill it. If it blooms, so much the better! The honeybees can visit the flowers.

    We got this much: 10 quart jars. They hold a quart if filled to the rim, so this isn't really 10 quarts. :) The bucket of strained honey weighed 36 pounds.

    Is this rude?

    Thank you! Should I ever get to travel down south again, I will keep this in mind.

    Tonight is the last cool(ish) night. Tomorrow starts the heat wave, with incoming humidity. Widget, please get over being broody! I don't want to worry about you in the broody breaker crate when it's 96°!

    Songs that make your skin crawl.

    Jesus Christ Superstar isn't really a musical... it's billed as a rock opera. I've seen it performed live onstage, and it was incredible.

    Helpful hints for building coops

    I have my garlic drying out on the porch. When we need garlic, I go out and grab a bulb, brush it off, and bring it inside. It will take a few hours to clean it all and get it ready to store. That's ok, because it means we'll have plenty of garlic.

    Our Backyard Bee Journey!💗🐝

    This is the third summer. We got bees in May of 2023. This was our first harvest of honey! We gave them the same frames back after harvesting. We figured they'd like the honey and clean up the mess I made cutting off the caps with a serrated knife. :oops: There is a phrase we'd heard at the...
