Oats and annual ryegrass in this field

That's a springtime thing up there?
We always did it in fall down here.

They ain't got no springtime or fall up there. They've got wintertime and freaking coldtime.

Picture doesn't do it justice. Phone pictures plus into the sun didn't make the best picture. Fall is the best !

I know what you mean. I'm always taking pictures. They never look as good as real life.
I caught this rainbow a couple months ago shortly after I broke my neck and under the influence of drugs. I swear I could touch it.

I want the ryegrass for grazing this fall after I take the oats off. I don't want it to survive the winter, next year I'll plant alfalfa, Timothy and brome with oats as a nurse crop.

That's what I was thinking when I took the pic.
I had to fight to free him, and only because he was stupid. There was nothing keeping him there but stupidity.

We got baby ducks in early February. Hope they start laying eggs next month. Chickens usually 4 months and ducks five. But the ducks grew so fast it was amazing.


Living in town now we didn't want a rooster waking anybody up. This is the first ducks I've had and they are a hoot. I have learned that you can't soft boil a duck egg.

I don't know anything about ducks. My oldest daughter got ducks a few years ago, and she tells me they need enough water to splash in and bathe. Is that something you have found?

I don't know if they "need" water to splash around in... but they sure enjoy it. We stuck a cut off (9") plastic cattle trough out in the pasture with a sprinkler mounted on a plastic stool, and we run it just enough to have the water about a foot tall so it dribbles into the pool.
Watching the ducks just quacks me up...

Use duck eggs instead of chicken eggs for pancakes, waffles and cakes. Richer flavor.
