Same old freezer, new purpose

[freemotion]

DH had to bury a couple of our goaties over the years and he had the unpleasant job done within an hour. He used a shovel and a San Angelo bar (big metal pole, sharpened at one end and flat blade at the other) and didn't run into any really big rocks. The hole was at least 1/3 of what you'd need, so it is a doable project, especially if you break the job up over a few days so you can really do it right without ending up in a body cast!

We have an old chest--type that I used covered with glass and a bulb to start seedlings. Now I am going to try to raise catfish in it. It's bigger than a barrel so it seems like it would work better. I'm going to try it at least.

Would you mind explaining how you are going to make this? I am very interested in this idea, I never knew folks did this. Thanks for sharing!

Great idea btw about the seedlings.

So far I've uncovered two old fridges and one chest freezer in various outbuildings on the farm where I just moved. I love the idea of using one as feed storage but I'm not sure how I'm going to get it to the correct building. Those things are heavy!
