grannys gone and done it

[Granny Hatchet]

I dont think twist does pictures and it is early yet by his time. like 3. i think.
I never seen a gallon of mayo. that would last me a few yrs. LOL but, I get the idea. My chickens go through about 3 gallons of crumble a day and a gallon of corn. Where do you get wheat ? when I was reading on that site she mentioned alfalfa in winter for greens ? to replace summer greens i guess. where is that? isnt it like dried grass ? 3 of my older hens look gross. I wouldnt even want to eat them. tons of missing feathers on the back and nasty butts. coated in crap. I have treated for mites and worms and its just these 3 and they have been looking like that for a while. months.

Yeah granny that's a lot of feed. Not sure how easy that would be but if there was an easy way, it would be a lot of savings for you.

 I know you were just teasing yesterday. Like you, I would be considered obese, but I wear it well. I am big boned

I'm just going to ditto all of that.  ​ I'm from Michigan, of Finnish decent. There's no such thing as a dainty Finn. My skeleton wouldn't fit in a size 8! Never felt feminine or dainty, but I could buck hay with the best of them till me legs went bad. I've gained 45 lbs over the years. It bothers me too. I think we should be allowed to grow older without beating ourselves up? I starved and dieted my whole life to fit in. I'm over that. I eat as healthy as I can. Midwest stick to your ribs food like granny's dinner she cooked. Nummers.

I am of German decent, so that's where I get the linebacker figure from I guess. I'm right there with ya mutt on my skeleton couldn't fit in a size 8. We just grow um big in Michigan I guess

I have 3 of those myself granny, I'm even too embarrassed to give them away. Just down sized by another 5 adults tonight. still have 8 18 month olds to go. Shouldn't say that, only want to get rid of 4 of those. Have a couple roo that I need to get rid of yet before the snow fly's.

What do you mean that twist doesn't do pictures. How are we to enjoy our virtual yaks without pictures? Does either of the guys that live on the farm do pictures?

Granny I get wheat at farmers coop for $6/50 lbs. ff could cut your feed consumption in1/2.

I only have to do an unexpected sneeze and I'm off

I don't even have to do that much. With my bladder conditions I'm either wetting myself or not able to go. Glad I can laugh at that fault or I would be in serious mental disarray

With me, it just "depends"

What king of feed do you ferment Jane. The one time I tried it with crumble it just became a slurpy stinky mess.

how can I feed without FF ? would it be 50% of their diet or ? I give them corn to supplement the bill but i dont think its very good for them they are fat. oops plump !
