Quote: Thanks Bamadude. I know I do I paid enough for them and waited for them for what seemed like forever. lol I am adding some new breeds hopefully by the end of next month. I have been waiting for months for some more great stock and then I found someone to trade some stock with and they also have some great stock! Plus my project is going well so hopefully next year I will have 4 new breeds.

Bama I do have to commend you for being such a model BYC member - don't be upset, but, you are a real pleasure to have around.

That is truly fantastic!

Years ago, I read on BYC (maybe the predator thread) that electric fencing doesn't slow down BEARS, their thick fur is a great insulator. Besides the jolt may not be strong enough to knock them out of their shoes.

The way to get electric fence to work with moose OR bear... is that you just have to bait the fence. You need the nose or tongue to touch the fence, or it just will not work.

Deb's idea was great, but you can also get a wad of tinfoil, and crimp it over the wire, and spread that tinfoil with something tasty... I think I remember that Fish and Game said that peanut butter worked best for bears, and bananas worked best for moose.

Scuppernongs

Me do no know what that is......


please tell me?

We're in a state that isn't affected by AI (yet). The closest to us is Kansas with a mere 10 cases. BUT my neighbors are running scared with all the news report and several have requested becoming paying egg customers. Yay!

No...not BamaMaters....

BAMATOES! (sounds like of SuperHero-ish; yes?)

Scuppernongs are a Southern type of grape, Alaskan. There are several cultivars, but they are descended from the wild native Muscadine grape.

Deb: whats a swamp cooler?

I'm sorry bama...had to laugh. You live in a humid area. Some of us in the west like the swamp cooler, uses water and a big fan to run the cooled water into the house. We like air conditioners. Those swamp coolers can warp doors and window frames. :/

I take it that SCG is starting tomatoes indoors? We plant our veggies outdoors in May..so not long now. Well, I could put the sunflower seeds out..I love growing those huge ones. I buy started tomatoes. Started veggies.

Yep. They are wild grapes. Scuppernongs are seedless. Muscadines have seeds. Both are awesome
