    fox in the barn

    I think I trapped a fox in the barn night before last. there are at least two in the area, Steuben with the stubby tail, and Maybelline with the distinct face mask. One of them used to live in our barn, but we harassed them out, and used a bottle of miracle enzyme pet accident cleaner to get rid...

    dogs and how to get there from here

    My current cavamalt sleeps with my kid's bunny on her lap. His big weapon, sad eyes, is not likely to threaten the chicks we ordered for late spring.

    hillside run

    Hi. I bought a new house yesterday! So excited, and I can feel the chickens coming soon! So there is a sort of wooded gully, which isn't much use for anything else, that might make a good place for chickens on one side and turkeys on the other. (Since the broad grassy places are horse pasture...
