    coons

    You can borrow my 13 year old deaf, toothless, only three good legs Australian Shepherd. He is a coon's worst nightmare. It's not fangs, but sheer will and heart that does the varmints in! (Shoulda seen this old dog kick a pit-cross's butt!) I really don't know why this dog is still alive...

    Bee Question

    I would call a bee man. We have too many Aficanized bees down here to mess around with bees yourself. We have a deal with a bee man where he puts a hundred hives on our land each year and then brings us honey in exchange for the "use of our organic flowers". We don't use chemicals on the...

    Buying cattle at the sale barn

    Ditto on the DISEASE! As a retired RN, I guess that is foremost in my mind. Disease! I can't imagine bringing something home from the sale barn, despite quaratine, worming, or meds. It just seems too risky to put my gals in jepardy.

    Anbody out there a goat fan?

    I've raised goats, mostly dairy, on and off of r25 years. Also barbado sheep. They are both delicious. The older ones make fine hambuger or sausage, especially if mixed with pork. We have lots of feral hogs so that is easy enough. Or raise a domestic hog or buying a bit of pork to mix with...
