I am not sure. If I had to guess, I would have to say River Buffalo. We only see them from a far. We drive by them but you can see them in the distance. One ranch has Zebras and Antelope, as well.
Last winter, our goats had a tarp and pallet shed. This year it will be a bit of an upgrade. That is our next project. Our Alpaca pen will be lengthened 2 feet, from 10 to 12 qnd we will build the next section for the goats on one side and the donkeys on the other! Pics to follow so you can see...
So very true but I would love to cushion my pockets along the way!! Farm life is anything but cheap! Feeding this crew alone is enough to choke me! We do know that it will come around by them feeding us eventually!
I can't recall if I shared that Rooster Cogburn has learned how to crow!
He is a big, beautiful Production Red and he just turned 6 months old. He has 11 fat and sassy hens of different varieties that he claims as his harem. He really wants all the littles released from the run but maybe another...
I was raised on a farm. From birth to 18, we had 330 acres. We raised goats, chickens and had horses. We had pigs and sheep at one time, that is gow I know I don't want them again! We had actual farm land. 300 acres committed to soybeans, cotton, maize, corn and whatever else we knew would sell...
We currently have no water on the property. We plan to dig a well but it is about $8k. We have to bring water via a tank or an IBC tote every 3 days. So cutting out the middleman would be the digging a well.......but then again, there is no electricity out there either but the solar systems are...
Our plan is to fill another IBC tote on the ground and then pump the water up to the one on the platform. I will video it and post it here! We are very excited about this project. It has been in the design stages for almost a year and watching it come to fruition has been so wonderful!
Honestly...
Our best experience has been 5 years. We used them for bee feeders. I will post a pic when I get a chance to take one in the bee yard. Our worst experience was a week, when a handle broke from a new bucket transporting honey. Nothing like losing 5 gallons of honey in the driveway........the bees...
Nothing like having only one grandchild! I am begging for more but so far, I am being ignored, refused and down right given dirty looks. Cap's Mom is a flat out NO.......my Oldest daughter is on the fence but has had 2 miscarriages in the last 3 years so I don't push now......and JM says, "If...
We are going to pump water up to it.....we hope.....currently, we fill a 250 gallon tank that is in the back of one if our trucks every 3 or 4 days......we pump it into a big black tub at the farm then carry it via 5 gallon buckets to its destination. Our water well is a year or so out, unless...
