    What’s everyone using for minerals.

    $65 CAD for a 25 kg bag of BioAg's loose mineral premix (selenium included). $25 CAD for 25kg bag of loose Redmond salt. Sorry, Canadian units. :) But you're in BC, right @Silver ?

    Water Question for the North

    I've always found too that the floating ones rust (the cages). The drain hole heaters don't have the cage so they don't rust. I did have a cow step in the water tank once and snap it off, but that was when their yard was full of snow so they didn't have a lot of space to move around if there...

    Age?

    Do I win a prize for being the youngest? 20 currently. :) Grew up in Ontario, usually was near the country, but definitely wasn't a farm kid. Dad has always worked in computers, but we always wanted a "homestead". Had to move to PEI to afford one. :) Got Lowline Angus beginning of 2020. Loving...

    Evidently, you can trade a 1¢ bobby pin for a $60,000 small house

    I think a large part of it may have been the fact that she was explicitly marketing it all. Not sure about the guy who traded a paperclip for a house, but I think a lot of it was the novelty of the endeavor. Hard to believe though that someone would trade an Apple TV for an old snowboard... I...

    Electric fence how to?

    Similar to Cowboy Ram, I use 4 strands of high tensile. Bottom and third from bottom electrified (one for calves, other for cows). Electrified high tensile is both a psychological barrier as well as a physical barrier if it has at least 3 strands. I section off the fields with a single strand...

    Is there any relatively easy treatment for acorn toxicity?

    Yikes. Glad I don't have any oak here. Do they taste good to them, or was it just because there wasn't much grass?

    Another Covid strain............

    Source article: https://westernstandardonline.com/2020/10/how-trudeau-bought-the-media/ From an independent news site, because the CBC would never broadcast that. Just realized that it's a Canadian article too, but oh well. :) Canada's usually 10 years ahead of the US in terms of their march...

    Another Covid strain............

    Good thing we flattened the curve to give it time to mutate.

    Another Covid strain............

    I saw a great anagram of "omicron". :)

    Say what they want you to say, and the funding will keep coming!

    When you don't have an answer... associate someone with the QAnon Shaman.

    Another Covid strain............

    Who wrote that article (the one about the OAN)?

    Another Covid strain............

    Nothing like getting information from state-sponsored media reporting on state-sponsored research!

    Another Covid strain............

    To be fair, it is REALLY comfortable listening to CNN and believing everything they say, and listening to the government and doing everything they say. No thinking required. Let others do it for you!

    Another Covid strain............

    I think this would make a better time capsule.

    Cause of death? (Bloating + prolapse)

    Yeah, it's quite sad actually. There was an outbreak here in PEI from a pretty large farm, but as a result, all potatoes from PEI aren't allowed past the border. Just talked to a friend today who works for a smaller farm, and he said they've just stopped grading because there's no point. I think...

    Yes, I meant the nation as a whole. What prevents you from being a 10?

    Cause of death? (Bloating + prolapse)

    I don't think so. It was out in the paddock lying on it's side. But thanks for the suggestion!

    Another Covid strain............

    Another reason I won't take it. It's at best 66% "effective", with (tens of?) thousands of documented side effect cases. I know everyone is different, which is why some people don't react to it at all, but it only takes one shot that your body doesn't like to mess your life up. Do you believe...
