    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    This year in some places is a very rare occasion where the annual, 17 & 13 yr cycles overlap. I forgot how long it will be before the next time the multi years overlap.

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I put out the last gal of syrup and they jumped on it. The wife went to town and could not find any 25lb bags. Thought about just getting a few 4#ers and getting more next week then thought there may not be any next week, so she got 10 of them. Thanks for the heads up. Side note.... She...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I put 25lbs into a 1 1/2-2 gal of water for sugar water for the bee's. It makes 3ish gal of syrup. It's needed before and after making splits, well maybe not needed but it gives them a boost to build up. I don't put it on the individual hives I just open feed in 1 gal chicken waterer. It's...

    Scat ID

    The top/seedy one looks like coon. The bottom I don't know but looks kinda like coyote but seems real close to the house for that. Although I've seen many animals go after another to make it their smell.

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Doing feeders today I had to YELL at the oldest boy (6) to not slam the door shut when the wind is blowing hard enough to do it without you touching it. It wasn't as bad as last week where it yanked him out of the truck when opening it and I had to gun it with him pulling to get it to shut. He...

    Labs are smart and eager to please dogs. That's why they were the #1 breed registered in the U.S. for a long time. Now it's something less useful. Also I was way to late to answer you @CrealCritter but others did so quite well. On the spraying, I try to raise bee's so one neighbor of...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    After doing feeders last week, I talked to the manager of one of the ranches. Somebody had lit a fire on the south side, east and west of one of the ranches that's about 5-7k acres with 25+ south winds forecast with larger gust the rest of the day, overnight and into the next morning. They are...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Like warning labels some sissie would cry and moan if it wasn't written on there. Times have changed :( I guess that's the difference of the age of "I you don't stop crying I'll give you something to cry about" vs. the "If you stop crying I'll give you a treat or something."

    Honeybees will fly all year if a warm day comes up. They don't hibernate, just cluster together to stay warm. Usually if in the corn or chicken feed they're looking for protein due to lack of pollen. They will also do a cleansing flight (potty break) at some pretty cold temps if they get a...

    It can be good and bad as well. Squash bugs and many other critters that are plant specific (if you can't rotate your corn, tomatoes, etc,,) can flourish in the same debris, even the burrowing grubs are better insulated. Coin toss. Bees or squash bugs. Depends on what you have more of I...

    Yep. It can even help them with long toes/feet. I used to walk my dogs on pavement on purpose everyday just to not trim their toes. Can be good for cattle and horses as well. It also gives them a chance to get some of the mud out of their feet. Wish I had a spot like that to feed the horses.
