Gracie, you must have sent some trading/barter vibes my way because I got an email today from a guy that I met from Craigslist about a year ago who has given me a BUNCH a free stuff that turned out being an egg customer (and the attorney's at the attorney's office that he works at) wanting to trade some catfish fillets for some of my muscovy ducks. So of course I said YES!!!

So now it looks like YOU have started the trading game on this thread.

Who's next?????? !!!!!!!

I like bartering! My hubby can't get mad at me if I dont spend any money! I just have to be sure not to give his stuff away

LOL @ be sure not to give his stuff away.

No I haven't,.. but my Nanny ( grandmother) used to make it. she said it was good for her blood pressure and her blood sugar. I haven't heard anyone mention it in years. How are you going to make it?

I'm drying some leaves now, and plan to steep them for 20 minutes or so later in the week. If i really like it, I'll raid all my family/friends fig trees

I've been considering passionfruit tea. The vines grow all over my property and there are blooms that can be brewed in addition to the leaves.

And that is really nice to know about that fish food. Who would have though?!?! How much is it?

That sounds like something I can add to the chicken feed. Ya think?

How much are catfish pellets?

About $16 dollars for 50lbs.
Yea I mix it to get my protein right where I want it. My game fowl feed that I buy is called Thunder Bird its protein is only a little over 14% so it takes 10lbs of catfish pellets at 32% to boost my feed to 17%. But if you want you can just throw in like 5lbs per 50lbs of laying pellets I could do the math for you if I knew what you feed.

Where in the world did you find iodine??? I went to wal-mart and the only thing I found was something that said a safer alternative to iodine. Can't recall the name right now!!

Missi, you can get Iodine at Walgreens. That's where I bought mine from. It looks like this.

Oh ok. I know where Currie's feed store is. I have bought feed from them when I would go to visit my sister and couldn't make it back to my feed store. I'll have to check them out next time I visit my relatives.
