Shame it's not a ewe. Sure would have been a pretty one! Still planning on coming up to get some meat. Just don't know when yet. I did pick up some regular ground lamb at the store the other day. DH really liked it. I thought it was nasty. It had a really strong smell, and left an oily residue...

I think 99% of medications causes diarrhea, constipation or both. Just lovely. Sorry you're going through this. I had it a couple years ago and ended up in the ER it was so bad. Usually when I feel nauseous, if I'll go ahead and throw up I'll feel better. Not with vertigo. You're still trying...

Happy Happy Birthday Ducks!!! 🦆🎂:frow

I have weed cloth, but I use it as a shade cloth for my chicken run. :idunno I would try the black plastic to help get rid of the weeds. Run some irrigation under and plant through the plastic. Or, try a small section with the black plastic and another section with the weed cloth and see which...

I might have been born in the dark, but wasn't last night. :) I had no plans what so ever of purchasing an animal to raise for meat without knowing if I liked it or not. But thanks for reminding me to look before I sheep, uh I mean leap. Oh, deer meat is one of our favorites. YUM! Alligator is...

What did you not like about it?

I don't think I've ever had lamb. I showed DH some pics of your lambs Bay. He said why don't we get some? I bout fell outa my chair! lol

@Beekissed - Your new garden plans sound wonderful! I can just imagine all the pollinators that will be coming in to enjoy your flowers. How are your sheep doing & your new dog? @Prairie Rose - There is a guy on youtube that had the same trouble you did with herbicide in his mulch. He planted...

That is what I used to do, run the mower over them. With the mulcher, they go straight in a trash bag and I can store them or pour them out on the garden or compost pile. If I had a bagger on my mower, I wouldn't have the mulcher. Mow/bag all at once.

I don't use anything on my onions, but I do blanch them. It helps them rehydrate faster & it helps them dehydrate faster. I usually do about 9lbs to fill my trays on my dehydrator. I put them on in the afternoon, they are usually done by morning. I have an the dehydrator that has NO temp gauge...

My shredder is just for leaves and such. No blades, just uses weed eater thread. The one I have is The Worx. I got it at Walmart for $125. Looks like it cost a bit more now. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Worx-WG430-13-Amp-Leaf-Mulcher/21445098 Easy to use. We do try to keep the twigs/sticks out...

I love using my dehydrator. My favorite is sweet onions. I love the smell of them as they dry.

Be sure and check you hay suppliers. There is a broad leaf herbicide called Grazon that is sprayed on hay meadows to kill all the weeds. The horses/cows/sheep/goats eat it, grass or hay, the herbicide passes through them in the manure. Even after the manure is composted, the herbicide is still...

Ran across a good buy on potatoes. I got 100 lbs and put 80 lbs into quart jars. Thinking about getting another 100 lbs to put up after Thanksgiving. I wish the sale would happen a little earlier or else after Thanksgiving.

Potatoes. In the last 2 days, I've put up 42 qts of potatoes, which was 80 lbs. Thinking about putting up another 80 lbs after Thanksgiving. @Crazy Gardner - Your pantry looks good!!

@Beekissed - Too funny! Some days I feel like that chicken looks! To be honest, I wasn't the best at keeping up to date myself. I will try and do better this coming season. :) @Cosmo spring garden - Thank you! @baymule - Thank you! I don't know wither to stay warm or try to keep cool. Never a...

Whoa bay! That boy is going to be huge! He sure has grown from your first pic of him. Looks like he's going to be a great dog too.

Thank you for the wonderful birthday wishes! It was really a nice day yesterday. It warmed up, and I did a few things out in the garden.

It's going to get colder in a couple of days. I need to break out my winter gear. :thumbsup

I planted my elephant garlic and the corms I saved from this years harvest today. Also planted some turnips, kale and purple sprouting broccoli. I should have gotten it all in last week, but was too busy helping Mom. I got some canning done yesterday. Put up 4 qts of green beans and 10 qts of...
