Can't see how I would use the spools but I can't stop thinking about all that free wood.

Evolving - pretty sure it's dry pox, other NN owners have confirmed. She's ok. (And the one with the affected eye is getting a lot better, eye is fine, thank goodness...) Yeah, that's a good idea. If you buy dry instant yeast in bulk (a brick), it can survive for eons in the freezer if stored properly (I put mine in a mason jar). Get yourself an easy win, then graduate to sourdough. I totally need some of these... That's on my list of things to learn to do some day... OK, so, here's the embarrassing stupid thing - I have quite a few of these 16' x 4' cattle panels (I got a bunch when I bought them since I had to pay for delivery). How in the world does one BEND them (without killing yourself, that is)? That's kinda neat looking... I'm totally going to try this for starting seeds. What a cool idea!!!!! I got four of the apple trees planted!!!! (Didn't finish off the mulch yet - put a little around the trunk, will do it tomorrow). I'm beat - that was harder than expected. Still have two more holes to dig and plant... Here's one of the holes (hard to tell here, but it's BIG - the reason, supposedly, is to allow the roots to expand a lot as the tree gets established). And here are the two trees planted there (Anna and Ein Shemer). Tank and his new girls are getting along a bit better now, hanging together when foraging, though they are still a little wary of each other. I'm heading back out to ensure the girls go to bed in the coop like they should (and don't try something crazy like roosting on top of the tractor). They are heavy big girls, but they still fly very well... - Ant Farm

It truly works well for seeds.

Peter... Also about the rope lights.... may be a better option for use as Production lighting to set on a timer and when I googled it, its coming up as common use in the coops for just that.

Hadn't thought about rope light for additional lighting. I was thinking of attaching directly too the roost for warmth. So I might be a double fix.

Not all of CL listings are reasonable, I brought home a free rooster yesterday for my barnyard mixed hens, EasterEgger with beautiful feather color, I will be looking forward to seeing what he does with egg color
