i dont know scott, can you do what that planker was doing? hahaha it actualy makes me kinda mad to see people go to gyms when there is so much work to be done. if you want to stretch,clean the coop. if you want to do squats, shovel the poop. am i right?

yepers or come to my place and set railroad ties as fence posts I can find all kinds of chores to use different muscles. Will pay in fudge and carmels.

well I do cheat and use the bobcat and chain to get the tie in the hole but then it all "person power" to wrestle it in to place, level it and get it in line before backfilling and tamping down. Then move about 8 feet and do another. Occasionaly throw in a bag or 2 of quickcrete and add water.

those blue African quail are sure pretty!!! Not the bird for North Dakota I am thinking. How do guiena do in cold weather there granny?? It's tick central out at the farm from May thru August. Would love to them (tics) to be gone. Have a seasonal creek that runs thru the place and pasture all around plus shelter belts.

geez, why? got something against wood? what kinds of chickens do you have?

 

[Granny Hatchet]

i wanted to learn how to use a bobcat, wanted to dig a pond. when we first moved here i threatened to dig one by hand but after 600 trees not counting shrubs and flowers i had a heart attack so i did give that idea up. lol one day i will have a pond with a bridge going across that lights up at night and i will stock it well. fresh trout for dinner. mmm

the guineas have fared better this winter then the chickens have. it surprises me as they are African birds.guess its what you get used to. they do like the dry though

 

[Granny Hatchet]

cheyen, when will you know if your eggs are fertile? is it the same as chickens??

wood as in trees ?? nope My shelter belts are getting towards the end of their life-spans and need to plant some more. Love trees when they grow where they are supposed to. LOL you could always rent a bobcat for the pond digging.
