Muesky I used to roll bales out like that. Now I use a chain around the bale that is tied to the bottom of a post and I drive out from under it. Be sure that the critters are clear too. And remove the tailgate or chances are it will be kinda "U" shaped and won't close again, an expensive lesson learned years ago.

Nice trade. You know many would have taken a long shot and left a wounded deer out there. I used to come across them from time to time while I was trapping. It's good to see that she has patience.

They showed on the local news here tonight about a guy in Okla. That shot a 750 wild boar while deer hunting! Man that would be a big pig! They showed it hanging and it looked like a hamp cross! Wonder just how wild it really was!lol

Girls & I made it home after a LONG day. Think we did everything on the wish list. Even managed to get dresses for DH change of command ceremony. Had over 30 chicks hatch while I was out.

Dh stayed close to the farm, he had a friend get a boer this am- not a big one like was on the news-- only about 250. So dh went to help clean it. Now I have a boer head set up to aid in trapping coyotes. Minus the snout. They cut it off to make necklaces with the boers teeth. I was only gone one day, so can't imagine how creative things could get around here.

Now the question I have-- if those guys do manage to get a few coyotes-- then what???

So how did everyone do @ the Newcastle show?

I used to get my best results with a tape of a wounded rabbit about sundown. On an average weekend I would get about ten Coyotes along the Cimmarron river. At the time they were worth 20 dollars during furbearing season, sure beat working fast food like my classmates did.

To remove the tannin, you can leach it out in water.
My grandmother said that the Cherokee would crush the acorns with a rock and mortar rock...remove the shell and make a coarse "flour". They would then soak it in water overnight. After draining out the water for use in tanning leather, the women would make a dough bread from the mash.

Spent most of the afternoon running the chipper shredder in the back yard. Earlier this year James and I took down two huge silver maples. They've been sitting in three piles, one brush one big enough for fireplace wood and one of the big ol' bases cut to 2 foot length (one of those is going to P&B after we roll it out to the truck, hopefully this week she'll come home to a stump at the edge of her yard

). Anyway. So my hands are tender, but all the mulch made from shredding the brush will be going into the coops as deep litter mulch. Saves me having to buy mulch for winterizing.
