@BlueBaby Hello how are you and your flock doing this fine day? Very interesting link with water well data, Thank you.
This looks to be information that is gathered from water well drillers that is sent in and recorded with the State. Great information for anyone buying property who needs to know if there is water available close by or not?
Back home there is a large farming operation who grows many thousands of acers of potatoes and they have a lot of irrigation wells for their crops. The problem with so many irrigation wells in such a close area caused a drop in the surrounding water table, so all the people in the surrounding areas who had shallow wells were starting to run short on water and they had to drill deeper wells. It's my understanding there was a lot of unhappy people in the area because of this.
Maybe this is the reason the farmers in your area need to drill deeper wells, to help keep from sucking the shallow water table dry? Interesting stuff, property isn't worth much if you don't have a good safe source of water.
Speaking of water, ( Rain ) I have been having to put down concrete pavers and flat bocks in our goat pen to help keep the goats up off the wet muddy ground. All I need is for them to start having hoof issues because their feet can't keep dry.
The pavers and concrete blocks in their pen will also help with keeping their hoofs somewhat filed down also, so I don't mind doing it for them. The price on the used material isn't to bad, the real work is hauling everything by hand.
The girls had a ten egg day yesterday so that was nice to see.
Out of the four chicken eggs one egg was in their nesting boxes and the other three were in with the duck eggs. I am wondering if my nesting boxes might be to small now that they are bigger and that is why they lay them in the ducks nest? One more thing to add to my list of 101 projects. LOL
