    Suet for chickens?

    I take grease from browning ground beef and pour it in a foil pan on top of scratch grains. Then I harden it in the fridge. The chickens love it!

    The ducks are just not taking a hint........

    Ducks are more afraid of anything different than any other animal I have seen. It seems they really need to adjust to change slowly. I added outside access nesting boxes to my duck coop and they were terrified of going in there! It took them a few nights to adjust and they are still wary of...

    Solar? Wind? Just a thought...

    I wonder how they worked. I wonder if we could improvise and build one ourselves!

    Solar? Wind? Just a thought...

    It sounds logical if you have a good windy spot. That way you are not putting all your eggs in 1 basket. Didn't they use windmills to pump up water somehow in the olden days? I remember seeing that in movies.

    Denim Deb Hay, hay, hay. Thank the Lord!

    So sorry you are going through this. :( I grew up in a household where my father was like that so I understand how difficult it can be. You never know if it is going to be a good day or bad one. Just a little bit of advice. Protect yourself legally. Is it actually his house or both of...

    Peach trees

    Well, some apple trees don't need pollinators like Golden Delicious. You can research peach trees to see if any varieties will do well without pollinators. Pear trees can be pollinated by Bradford Pear trees (those are decorative pear trees). That being said all fruit trees will produce more...

    You are fortunate to be able to study the book of Revelations. That is my favorite book of the Bible especially Chapter 21. I think your Dominique looks just fine.

    Keeping feet warm ~ideas needed

    When I get cold I run around for a short time to get my blood flowing. Can you get one of those little bicycle peddle units where he could sit and peddle. It might improve the circulation in his feet and therefore warm them up.

    Migraine preventative?

    There are many foods that are triggers for migraines. You need to figure out which ones are yours. Preservatives, artificial flavorings and colors, msg, cheese, chocolate and many fruits are common culprits. Another trigger which tends to get ignored is scents. I am talking about scented...

    Bee's Guest House

    In that case I would probably keep them in a box unless you are cuddling with them. It worked really well with my pups. I know what you mean about some dogs being really sensitive and you don't want to break their spirit.
