Why? It's so cold! Forget gardening, or growing fruits well some fruits any ways. Only a few places in Montana are warm enough to grow corn or longer growing items. It's cold long term here, and where I am it's cold until June! Already below zero by the end of October.
You can get antibiotics labeled for fish. I have used them for years when a vet told me that there the same as human antibiotics. Not as carefully filled as as human grade but the same. I have treated my self and family members for strep, infections etc. Worked every time. I get mine on...
I can not imagine moving from ky to Montana. It's cold, wet and the growing season is almost nil. I know im from Montana. Funny thing is, my would be to go is kentucky! You can grow more there, less cold and way more easy to survive . But welcome to Montana !
Kalispell is beautiful, but the cost of living is very high there as it is resort and with the cherrie tree 's come very high costs. Bozeman has doubled in 10 years, and it's constantly growing . A very big police state town! Can not get into it, but you do not want to be there when crap hits...

Bought a big propane heater on sale at murdocks for 109.99 regularly 149.00 so I saved 40...
Mini molt as mine did the same thing. I have 5 girls, in my back yard . A 5x6 coop, a 10feet x15 feet pen. They usually free range, but I'm stopping that as it's to messy and my dogs eat the poo yuck! So the pen will be enlarged this month, and we are adding an electric door. The pen is enclosed...

Payied bills with mine and restocking for another year. Paid off every credit card I ever owned and it took me 3 years! This year I got the last one paid off. I feel free and now I owe no one ! Well except the phone ,power and cable co. Soon , very soon no cable company! Ordered a half a beef...
Im a bit different then you all, but I'm also one of the best in my family to save money and be frugal as all get out. I 'awoke' last year, saw the writing on the wall and decided to get my butt in gear to stock, store and learn to survive with what I could gather and glean.
I am a single grand...
Lots of folks moving here and crying about the cold lol, if you do not plan to grow much, like lots of snow and below zero temps, see 5 months of sunshine out of 12 months well come on over ! and that's stretching it! It's snowing in October and still snowy in June some times!
Why not leave some sites alone ? Really the new platform makes it hard to read, takes up room wit ads and comments it stinks! Sorry but I hate it big time. That's why I ca,e here! Please reconsider leaving this message board alone!
Freeze dried is always the way to go! Stock up on a years basics, things you eat each day, incorporate your dehydrated food and you can do quit well. I say order all your dehydrated food when you have an address and have the next two years shipped there. Unfortunately you will be able to only...
Very scary, I do believe we are in for a lot of trouble here in the USA also soon! I'm stocking up, diabetic here and got myself a year supply but....several in My family is diabetic, none of them have tried to get more then they need, they just do not care. I'm sure they will when crap hits...
We buy dehydrated meats, and all veggies dehydrated. Since I live in a very cold climate most of the year it's not readable to grow much, what I do I freeze or dehydrate but much has to be purchased . No savings if I buy it and dehydrate my self. So I buy it dehydrated already. We have enough...
We use can-rotators . But I buy so much that I have to store in bins. Last months canned goods, 260 cans of soup, chili and ravioli all on sale! I buy super bulk, it saves me hundreds! Half a beef coming this weekend!
Mine is jam packed ,and huge ! to long a list to post. Everything but the kitchen sink... Wait there is wipes in there to. Lol
We live in a cold cold climate it's important to always have a emergency pack in the car!
I also agree, the new BYC is hard , slow and I hate the sauce stuff, to small to read now:( please do not chain a thing here it's perfect and I'm glad I found it!
