Fermenting Feed for Meat Birds

[LindaB220]

[Thats the one altho usually they run darker can be lots of colors tho. They are from Russia the Causus region. The cheapest Ive seen em was a grand they ave 2.Grand typically. Thats cool that a family theme is emerging here. They are ranked No. 1 in guard.dogs in the world. It is very much in the training and handling of them. Who guarding the guard dog eh? Youd better have a chip in em. Thhe darker phased ones do look like bears watch Ill probably get shot in the process Ill have fun in the mean time.tho ha. quote name="Beekissed" url="/t/644300/fermenting-feed-for-meat-birds/14640#post_12871175"]


You're going to laugh but I think my sister has one of these! She got it in another state and paid out the wazooty for it because there are very few in the US and these had been imported from blah, blah, blah, etc. He's absolutely HUGE...and I mean huge. He lives in a horse trailer. She has done nothing with him...just tied him to that trailer and feeds him. He was supposed to be a LGD on her farm but she was too afraid to let him do that job because he is so expensive and hard to get and she didn't take the time to train him on her sheep.

Poor thing. He's a nice dog, too. Wish I had him.

She should advertise him for stud. He'd be agreeable.

My first "real" kiss was when I was 12, he was 16, and it was the best kiss I've ever had...and I haven't had one since to top it. It was at the county fair and there were fireworks going on. I got a whipping with a belt for being out in the dark with a boy...but it was worth it.

Nice to know I'm not alone. He wasn't my first kiss but was the one I always remember because he knew how to kiss and no one since has! Funny how most men could care less about kissing, certainly not enough to learn how. They just assume they know, without question. I'll bet that old boyfriend of mine ruined a lot of girls for their future relationships. Ahhhhhh memories......... : )

I must say that although I am probably significantly younger than many of you, I have found a prince who was thankfully let go of by his wicked ex-wife. I’ve had to deal with that wench for 8 years so far and can’t believe the things that she does! Woah! Their poor 14yo son…

But, to get back to (Ahem) topic… My dear hubby is the most amazing, thoughtful, easy going, caring, well intentioned, forgiving, trustworthy, hard-working, helpful, creative, fun loving, supportive, adventurous person I have ever met. He’s the kind of guy that actually takes the time to listen, cares, and understands – that others go to to have a listening ear and support when they need it. Not only that, he’s good looking to boot! AND he puts up with ME!
I would say that as few frogs as I have kissed (My first kiss was when I was 16 and it was – sloppy and wet), I’m glad I waited until I was 30 and found this real treasure.

And, maybe I do have to thank his ex-wife a little – she “put him back on the market”, and now that he found someone worthwhile, he’s willing to do what it takes to keep it going, and he does well! I believe we’ve only had one real argument in our time together, and that was completely understood as both of us had way too much on our plates and needed an outlet – not blame on either of us! You know, you are never upset for the reasons you think you are… And the straw that broke the camel’s back… all that stuff

I must say that we have gone through more than most in those 8 years (lost a child, lost parents/grandparents, lost jobs, moving, travel, 4 kids, an ex-wife who is relentless, step son with developmental disabilities…

Anyway, I just thought I’d pipe up to say that there ARE some princes out there, but mine is NOT available!!!

Sara, So glad you got a good one! It does us good to hear a success story now and then in a world where most are not. I have 5 married friends that are miserable and envy me because no one is telling me what to do, asking where I've been or when is supper going to be ready. I do cherish my freedom but a little true companionship once in a while would not go amiss. I stay too busy to ever get lonely and a good book will replace a bad man any day! kToo bad husbands and two abusive lovers was all it to for me to hang it up. I've been celibate for 24 years and certainly now not missing it. : )

RABBITS TURNED PIGEON!  YEEKS, I'D BE AFRAID OF SO MANY!  WHERE ARE THE STRAY DOGS WHEN YOU NEED THEM??  

For real! Looks a little bit scary. LOL

This is not as bad as any of youalls stories but I'll tell it anyway.  I had a calf with me in my 58' Chevy PU, on the front seat (bench seat) with it's head hanging out the passenger side window, doggy style, when it let loose its bladder.  That 2-3 day old baby held at least a gallon of pee.  I was drowned in it!!   : (

Oh gosh Bev, I think I might rather have the doodie! LOL

I have always been told that "there are a whole lot worse things than being alone" and no doubt that is true!

I'll add to that list: Godly, tender-hearted, strong, sensitive, smart, humorous, honorable, respectful of women, clean, good father, good husband, good friend, good neighbor, good employee, gets up when he falls, helps me up when I fall, understanding, and not self-absorbed...really looks at you when you talk and engages in the subject matter~no matter how many times he might have heard it, because you do the same for him. Kisses you even when not working up to physical intimacy. Tells you he loves you every day and really means it. His face lights up when you come in the room, no matter how many years you are together.

He doesn't complain about you at work and you can't think of anything to complain about him at work either. He truly is your friend and worries about what you might think of something, because that's what friends do, but also is the man of the family and is strong enough to lead it on right pathways, not giving into the weaker intentions of a woman or the kids, but goes where God would have him lead.

He sees what needs to be done before you mention it, because he is observant~in other words, you won't need to nag him because he is working one step ahead of you. He also expects the same of you, because that's how a partnership is....both working together, but also independently. He allows you to be who you are, because that is who he married, but he also shows you who you could be when equally yoked with him and going in a single direction.

In other words, he's a dreamer and he takes you along into those dreams and even wants to go along in your dreams, as long as they are both of a godly endeavor. You can walk, work and love side by side without worrying about who has the upper hand....God does, then your husband because you can trust him to have it, then you, because he trusts you to carry what he cannot.

He's a joy to work with, live with, travel with, sleep with, have intimacy with, have kids with, have a meal with, go through hard times with, go through joyful times with, worship with and have a life with. That's the perfect "rooster" for me.

I could spend weeks and not have come up with it all so perfectly put, Bee. Too bad so few men are of a Godly nature anymore. Too many women's fault is not finding husbands in church or taking them there before putting a ring on their fingers. I am that kind of guilty. And good for you, Bee! I saw cockoftherock's comment an honest request for some female input and it seemed as if all were going to ignore him. (I am at least a day behind reading this). Finding a man who aspires sincerely to all that would be enough for me. But it looks like women will have to do. Female friendships are so much more fulfilling (platonically speaking of course). I have to feel sorry for men after divorce. We have our strong support systems and they are simply set adrift. Oh well, back to chickens.
My pullet with the leg out of socket? The vet put it straight and put a splint on it and it had a "dead" foot afterwards but now she is moving the toes a bit so hasn't lost nerve function after all which means she may walk okay. We'll see in about 3 weeks. : )

Bee, I just want you to know that you form your thoughts so very well and you put them down in order and they flow and go together like they should. I tend to be a little bit scatter-brained and just am not as eloquent as you are. But I want you to know, I copied all of that which you wrote above and have put it into a "Word" document. I'm going to make a wood burning, actually two, and the words will be what you wrote. I'm going to give one to my daughter when she and her wonderful fiance tie the knot and I'm going to give one to my son before he even gets involved with any young ladies. I want him to see this and read it and get it engrained into who he is so that his wife will NEVER have occasion to ask the Lord, "Why?"

You are truly a blessing and I just want you to know that I appreciate you so very much. I wish we lived closer too cuz I think we could be pretty good buds. I would learn a lot from you and you would have lots of good reasons to laugh and probably roll your eyes a bit too!

Ditto, ditto, ditto!!! I too had copied it, thinking of my four unmarried sons. LOVE YOU BEE!!

 

[beverly evans]

Look what I started Srry lol

Don't be sorry. Are you married? Did you learn something valuable? I hope, for all the present or future females in your life. Good for you for asking. Where in the world would you get so much wise and savvy information from such generous purveyors of valid information?? You are blessed and don't realize it. : )

LOL! As much as my Prince is perfect, I know that he was not always so... And judging by his recollection of Junior High, he says he spent more time kissing girls than going to class! Good thing he got it out of his system in his early days! And glad he used up his sloppy kisses on others!
