Murphy's LawFrustrating day, all itchy and swollen from poison ivy, I decided not to do any outside work and work on some mending / altering I have been putting off. A little 20 minute project escalated to 3 hours, 2 times having to take apart the sewing machine to try and figure out what it was screwing up on. Finally got it all finished and .................................... it doesn't fit!!!!!!
So sorry to hear this. Hope the chick recovers.Lost Timmy overnite, from what i read, secondary infections are what are the issue with chigger infestations- such a sweet boy. Lost one of the keets and another isn't looking good, giving them crumble broth about every half hour- looks like a hard week dang it
ID'd some but they're all indigenous to OK. We've all got them and don't see wild bunnies dropping over because of them.I am trying to ID some weeds, bushes, vines, and trees to see what I have for the new rabbits for wild forage. Anyone know what these are.![]()
Weed one, you can see the sap is milky, this stuff is everywhere.

Weed 2 This weed also has milky sap, long tap root
Weed 3, this one gets huge, clear sap[COLOR=FF0000] I believe they call it chick weed. Amish make a salve out of it.[/COLOR] This is ragweed

Weed 4, is this plantain that has gone to seed? This is locally called pigweed
Weed 5, airy foliage and flowers [COLOR=FF0000]Almost like babies breath but not woody.[/COLOR] This is a sticktight...has a tiny seed with burrs.

tree 1 This one is a tree, they pop up everywhere [COLOR=FF0000]Texas Boxwood.[/COLOR]

Tree 2, or maybe big bush hard to tell, is it elderberry? It kinda reminds me of my Gma's elderberry, when it was blooming very fragrent Definitely this is elderberry. The berries make a great jelly or wine. I have recipes for both.

Evil vine 1, hate this crap, big hateful thorns grows like crazy, leaves are a bit thicker then normal. [COLOR=FF0000]Green Briar. Non poisonous but a real pain. Only removal method is digging it up. Birds spread the seeds.[/COLOR] Our cows will not eat this...and is is very invasive Green Briar or bramble.
Weed 6, everywhere This is iron weed. It can grow up to six feet tall and has a straight trunk.
