Happy Birthday Niecey!!!!

It's a little more than that with livestock. These companies (for hogs, dairy, and poultry) contract with farmers and they cannot sell to other processors. If the processing plant is shut--- it can slow down the product's arrival to the store shelves. Farmers cannot afford to feed them, or house...

I am curious how long it will take for the shortage to occur in the grocery. I just seen a load of feeder pigs for sale at our local stockyards.

It is going to get interesting...

I'll let you know how it goes!

My first spuds are peaking through the soil. That was a relief. I am hoping the rest come up. Half of my peas are up. The other half are not. Not sure why...

I had some problems with my water bed for my seedlings. Apparently, the new heater works 10x better than the old one...lesson learned. But I do have an order of plants coming in for the garden from the hardware store. I have connections in management. So, we will have some tomatoes. Our stores...

Absolutely. I have some roasts, and a ham to can in the freezer. I have broilers to process in 3 weeks. I have 1/2 beef and a hog ordered from the slaughterhouse down the road. I am hoping that they will be able to fill that order. I am going to garden like crazy, and can or freeze everything...

Me too! There is so much misinformation. I don't even know what is going on. I got our meat ordered today.

“God Can” “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:7-8 I am truly in awe of God. I am amazed by the creation. I am...

“Hid” “For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:3 Hid is the past tense of the word “hide” and one definition for that word is to conceal oneself from danger or it can mean to keep secret. In this context the Apostle Paul means that believers are concealed in...

I had too! I swore I never would have them again, but these are really good. They are not like the show quality reds, but they are much better than what I have seen. Cackle also has the hefty White Rocks too. Everything I get from them I enjoy.

Folks, I believe that we are about to enter a lull. A sense of cautious normalcy will emerge, but I think the worst is ahead of us. I think now is the time to prepare more, grow more, and learn more. That's not just for you hoard away and be selfish with either. That is in the hopes that you can...

Seems like I remember the broody rooster!! I definitely will get more White Rocks in the future. This last batch of RIR I got from Cackle have been great too. I had a broody one last fall, and they are big birds. They also have a wonderful dark coloring and lay great brown eggs. Much better than...

I have raised Barred Rocks several times, and these are not like them at all. My birds are bigger, and heavy layers and foragers.

I haven't had any broody girls this year, and I really thought I would. I have 15 RIR pullets coming in June. Bee, this is my second year with White Rocks and they are awesome. Love them!

“Joy in the Word” “Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart; for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16 The Prophet Jeremiah lived in the last years of the Kingdom of Judah. Judah was plagued by unrighteous...

Cornish Rocks by far. They are fast growers and big producers. I have another batch coming in September.

Here is a photo of mine. They are a little over four weeks I think.

If they weren't so efficient, I would hate to raise them.
