Come ask an 103 year old any question you can think of!!!!!

[Daddas1Punkin]

She would be close to my Oma's age if she were still alive. She died before i was born. I guess if I could ask my grandma a question I would ask her how to face tough times and still make good memories for the kids. Was there something in particular that got her through the roughest days and helped her push forward or was it just that there was no choice. Any secrets to keeping the kids happy and occupied without all the junk they have now? Any advice to little girls growing up in this day and age that I could pass down to my daughter. Any advice for how to help an overly soft hearted child who is scared of growing up? ( not a wimpy one, or a lazy one, just a scared one) I wish I had a grandma to ask.

Here is a little something just for you!

Waaaa. Both video's come up as "private".

 

[HeatherLynn]

yep thats what I get too. Probably just an uploading issue. These have been really cool to watch and a wonderful idea. Her memories and knowledge can be passed down and remembered.

I think you need to repost the videos, apparently no-one can watch them, when we push play it just goes blank and then says "This video is private." I really wanted to watch!

Yes, the deep bedding does work for the chickens in winter. We give the coop a real good scrubbing late summer, and just add more and more pine shavings through the winter. As long as the top layer is reasonably dry, they do fine. It is a pain to clean come spring, but it does work well. The best way to clean up all the layers is to soak it first and then shovel, shovel, but it saves so much effort when it's below zero. Good luck!

Also, if your eggs are really fresh, like ours right from the hen, add lots of salt to the water and cool them right away. Peel under cold water. Loved Honeyma's answer the best tho. That's the way to do it!!!

Would Honeyma like to maybe talk to schoolkids, like 4th grade and up? What she has cannot be learned from history books!!!

Also getting "this video is private"????
