Re: Hi I'm Harry

And Húg is growing into a great dog. I have to really watch not playing too rough with her because she really wants to go but even at 6 4 270 I am just too damned old to get this thing playin like that.

Re: Hi I'm Harry

I know this is an old reply but Rodger has had some choice displays for our new turnip too. I like Rodger. Not so much the turnip.

Re: Wow, Its quiet here

If its not on concrete I like a shed high enough for a cat to get under it so rattlesnakes and rats cant take up residence.

I build wood sheds from the wood I am milling and usually put them on 4 x 6 skids.

Re: Petro Bond Mix 7 of 9

That looks like a sweet ride Richard. I should get a bike, Plenty of dirt roads to tool around on out here. Wife doesnt care for them so we just never really looked that direction. We did get kayaks a couple years ago and its been fun taking them out.

The one time with Iron I wouldnt put much into. You might pick some of the crispy bits out but it wont burn far into the sand so most of it will certainly be reusable.

Those tools are all so crazy cool. One day I will set up a forge and give it a go, must be a great pleasure to use tools you crafted yourself.

Re: Midget White Turkey

The chicks I ordered last year that became our starter flock were $15 each btw, once losses were factored in they came out at $25 each. I am selling Week old chicks as they are much hardier then and charging $15 each for them. The 2 Toms and 8 Hens that comprise our current flock cost about $2.50 a ...

Midget White Turkey

Last year I ordered 25 chicks through the mail sent as day olds. Of these we promptly lost 10, they seem more fragile than chickens in that first week or so though I certainly saw mistakes I had made also that could have improved the numbers.
