I have so many dandelions here in the yard, if you want some seed I'll collect some and send it to you free

You can't just post unlabeled pictures and think you can get away with it. I will even go 'pretty please' so I can look up the recipes.

I woke up this morning to 9 inches of snow. it is still snowing at the rate of an inch an hour. The snow is supposed to move out of here by noon.

I believe the non poultry label refers to wild birds. Song birds and such as those are teh carriers of this latest outbreak.

True, but that is for confirmed infection you are trying to sterilize everything. You can do a foot bath with household bleach 1 cup to a gallon of water if you include a scrub brush to get any stuck bits out. Way cheaper than the foot bath disinfectants they sell.

it is most likely entering the flocks via people, on shoes or clothes. Once in a flock, it is 99% lethal to the whole flock. Lets take the disease vector one step further. You have a whole flock infected and dyeing. Every person and piece of equipment moving the infected birds are now exposed...

Certain diseases which are highly infectious are an automatic de-populating event to keep the disease contained. The H5N1 outbreak so far is in Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia and Indiana with results pending in Florida. H5N1 while not capable of Zoonosis (passage to...

Well, I finally got internet back yesterday afternoon. I made it to Kansas and only got the RV stuck in 1 snowdrift, 2 miles from the new farm. Grrrr it was on Saturday Night at 10 pm. Did not get here until 1 am Sunday.

Moving truck dropped off late yesterday afternoon. Then last night it started to rain...Hard. so far .80 inches of rain with large puddles all around. Someone up there needs to let off the spigot as I have a truck to load and a schedule to keep.

Hibernating due to the cold. LOL. Actually I have been packing. I have 8 days left before the move

Well it is official I bought a Farm today in Kansas. So lots of land, lots of mega barns and plenty of room for cattle and hay. Now to figure out how to get the chickens there so I know if I can take them all LOL

closing is 1/7 for this farm. and we have not found a place to move yet as it is hard to do everything virtually I have a couple of video walkthroughs today, hopefully in the next few days we find something.

About 34 years ago, I cooked a 45 pound turkey. We had to take it to my grandma's house to use he big old stove to cook it as it would not fit into our oven, and it barely fit in hers . I took pictures, some day I will run across them and scan them into the computer

the holes are predrilled and come with the screw connectors. I use these to build my runs and have had Javelina and bob cats bounce off the welded wire attached to the poles and not have had any issues. I watched a full size wild pig, waist high bounce off the pole and it did not move.

You are better off buying the parts you need and the pipe local. http://tarps.com/fittings2.htm is where you can buy all the connections at a decent price then go to the local lowes / home depot/ace hardware and buy the pipe.

Well, supposedly there is an offer on the farm that will be brought over this afternoon. We will see I guess if we did in fact sell our place. I dread the thought of moving in cold and dare I say snowy weather.

Not true, I have had javelina attack and eat chickens. When the state vet was out she confirmed that Javelina are omnivores and would and have attacked livestock and have been found eating them.

I saved back a ten pound CX for thanksgiving. it looked like a turkey after dressing out so who will know LOL

That's why I like dome greenhouses. Normally wind does not effect them at all. BUT, all it takes is one small tear in the plastic and the wind will make its way inside and rip the plastic to shreds. I chose a 2v dome, meaning there were only two lengths the wood had to be cut too. which makes it...

Yeah, I normally don't have to turn on the heat in the greenhouse until mid November, or the house. so no pilot lights were on and it got cold in the house this morning, down to 65. I have to laugh, back east before we moveout here 65 was shorts weather, now after living here for 11 years, it's...
