    WHAT ARE YOU CANNING TODAY?

    I have been listening (reading) to folks talking about this canner for a few years and wishing for one. Been thinking about it even more lately. I think there was some discussion on BYH. But you guys just pushed me over the edge with the mention of Amazon having it 25% off. I immediately went...

    Opportunity to move to a bigger homestead

    Sounds like this is your answer. I also think it’s great that both properties are close to each other. Live on whichever one you are more comfortable in, and put your animals (when you are ready) on your dad’s property. As @FarmerJamie suggested, make your main garden at the property that has...

    Air Fryer Uses & Recipes

    We have a countertop convection oven that has a bazillion features and settings, including air fry and dehydrate. We really love it and use it all the time. What I have realized though, is that all the different features that make it seem high tech are nothing more than whether you turn the fan...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Another side benefit we had from early neuter on our male cats was that even though they would “spray” on the house, nothing ever came out. Thank goodness!

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Get them fixed ASAP so the neighborhood toms don’t kill them or run them off. Which you probably already know. They are cute.

    I would love a frizzle just about anything! I bought Tolbunt Polish chicks last year, with a chance that some might be frizzled. Nope, none of mine. (But I still like them.) I have a frizzled satin Silkie rooster. He’s obviously mixed with something, (maybe Polish?) because he has white skin...

    Well they shouldn’t be, but a lot of breeds use different color words to mean the same thing or use the same word for different situations. Case in point is when the lavender Ameraucanas got accepted to the APA (or maybe it was when they applied. I don’t even know if they are officially...

    That’s too bad. You could totally make blue frizzle Easter Eggers with that rooster and just about any hen!

    This is what happens when people don’t know what they are doing and breed blue and lavender together. Anything that doesn’t come out black they just call lavender, without realizing it’s just blue or splash. Very likely they had a splash rooster over lavender hens, so they didn’t get any black...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    There’s your mistake right there! We learned this the hard way when we had a contractor replace our roof, siding and windows. Never pay them part way through for the portion of work that is completed. Because then they have no motivation to come back and do the rest. I’m glad your guy got the...

    Memes That Make You Giggle

    I absolutely LOVE roundabouts. When we moved to Indiana, the traffic in our (growing popular) county was horrible. Over the last 19 years they have put in a bazillion roundabouts, and fixed a lot of congestion.
