Happy Halloween!

I don't always go Trick or Treating but when I do I take a truck and trailer. Well, actually I do go, every year, and sometimes two or three times.

Whoa! A trailer full of mixed pumpkins would be like a dream come true for me. I'm a bit of a pumpkin addict.

I wonder if our local growers would give me their leftovers?

That is how it works. They have to get rid of them somehow and you have to get them quickly before other livestock feeders jump on them. With our cold, they don't last long anyway but you have a chance for them to still be good for feeding longer than we do.

Curiously, have you ever noticed a drop in your fecal egg counts after feeding pumpkin?

Hokey pokey wives tales.

Some are much better than others. Pie pumpkins are the best followed by the turbine as they have the most meat. The warty ones are just so-so but better than nothing. That field had all kinds of ornamentals, most I leave lying where I find them. The early freezing weather had already ruined the really good ones.

I love them all.
