Surviving Minnesota!

The Pollacks don't see eagles as well as I would love them too. I'm not into feeding birds that are bait.

BC do your wild plums sucker ? I have been on the Growing fruit forum a lot today . It seems the wild Canadian plum prunus Nigra does not sucker while the American and Chickasaw do sucker and form thickets . You could possible have any of the 3 species .

That long? I kick mine to the coop at 4-5 weeks if that long!

Mine are out by four... Unless there's only 2-3 birds, then I keep 'em in a bit longer cos I like having house birds.

If you go to Wadena on the 15th you will have a chance to bid on my Guineas, thereby tripling your flock!

Holm... Don't go.... It's a trap!! He won't let you away without them.

My rationale is that it keeps the good birds safe.

The plum out crops that' I've seen are on one stem. No bushiness at the bottom.
But I will say that we have one heck of a deer herd that may help keep the suckers down...? But from what I've seen I don't think I've even seen a trace of suckers on them....

I will post the auction bill it is a consignment auction that benefits the Amish School Between Wadena and Deer Creek,  I am bringing a bunch of stuff, I hope.  Including every last guinea I have!

Are you gonna bring some Doms?

It's been 20 degrees at night lately and my coop isn't insulated either. And its almost full right now cause i still have all the layers in it

I see. I only have windows open right now so it stays above freezing at night in the coop.
