anybody else on the e coli,,,,,now you got me thinking......

since you will find all different forms of e coli, is it specific....ex...chickens carry e coli, we all know that........and yes people all of you carry some e coli........where does the problem start,, how do the strains mix


can you tell I am not a science person,,,,it all fascinates me but trying to understand it is a different story...

now I have chicken, duck, quail......would they all carry the same......and how about this aquaponics system that hubby is looking at, wouldn't fish carry a different strain....

again thinking out loud, but please answer if you can, that way I am not talking to myself
 
Warning... graphic pics below!


So I get a call from DH saying he saw a critter on the web cam in the run under the sand box....

so I grab a couple of rat traps and head out to see what I can do.....

Notice to all furry critters who don't belong here....


MY RAT TRAPS HAVE TEETH!!

Dillon went from goof ball young fellow to totally serious farm dog in 2 seconds flat when I lifted the sandbox and he and Mindy scented the rat. It was over in seconds....


The shrew was in the wrong place at the wrong time....

The brick the rat and shrew are laid out on is 8"x4" x 2" thick...

Quote: Wing... does the farmhouse have internet? If so, then you can set up surveillance and view it over your computer. I got DH a set up for his birthday.... ours is more than what would be needed for just the coop, but we totalled 8 cameras watching house and coop, with a 1 TB DVR to record activity (can be set to record on motion detection). Coop cams are totally entertaining and we can check in over smart phones or any regular computer to see what is going on. He was just checking in to see what the birds were doing when he saw the rat sneaking out of it's hiding spot to snag some scratch seed. Timing is everything, I guess.
And the cameras also have pretty decent night vision.... but if you are setting up the system, spend the money to get the cameras with 650TVL or better resolution or the picture is really not too good.
Also, some home owner's insurance companies offer discounts if you have a surveillance system, though I don't know if they need to be 'monitored' by a professional company to qualify.

I'd say you can....I think there's smart phone apps that allow you to view a baby cam....so....if you can get the cam powered, you should be good to go......

Anyone going to have turkey polts this year near Lebanon?

I may. What are you looking for? I am hoping to let the Bourbon Red hens hatch out some poults. I don't want to incubate them myself. I will have Broad Breasted at the end of this month.


I'd like to try some mealworms... Could I get some to start with from you, Wing?
