Last Saturday my wife informed me we where out of feed for the chickens. It was late so the feed store was closed. I cut in crunchy peanut butter and cornmeal just like you do with flour and shortening for pie crust. They looked like they hadnt eaten in a month. I feed it to them for two days...
I never have any problem with coons because when I trap them I send them to Michigan, just kidding. We have always had high numbers so theres no change I can see.
Ten things you really need to know about me before you date my daughter.
1. When it comes to dating my daughter its not a democracy. I am the dictator of your little world. I am evil and will hunt you like a rabid dog if you hurt her.
2. I am not a friend. Trust me I hate everyone. I...
You could put about 10 rat snakes in the coop and they will eat the mice. When the mice are gone you put two hawks in there to eat the snakes. When they have eaten all the snakes you can put a bobcat in to eat the hawks. Then you put a coyote in to eat the cat. All you have to do then is get a...
You may have what we call crazy ants. They run around with no real trail to follow like they are lost or crazy. They dont make mounds they have tunnels all over the yard. They are smaller than fire ants but they eat fire ants. They can mess up electric equipment like pumps and destroy wiring...

Dave thank you for stepping in, and the great pictures. By your pic I am not the only one who carries an SA revolver at times. Though mine is not as modern as your ruger. It is not unusual for me to carry my 1851 colt .38 conversion doing chores. Great looking kids too, you must be very...

Didnt notice the sidearm, I must be better looking than I thought.
Just kidding. I was looking though my pics and noticed that I was wearing one in most of them. I guess you can say I wear mine so I dont get caught with my pants down.
Im so proud of the kids that I show them off...

The cricket is the first one I try to grab anymore after the other week using my 45 to dispatch a copper head. I had my neighbors come out of the house loaded for bear, until they found out it was just a snake. I love neighbors like that if you have trouble they come running instead of...
