    Bee newbie

    Ya those flow hives are a bit of a gimmick. I use top bar hives. And for us up here in new England we start them as early as possible. Winters are tuff up here.

    Bee newbie

    Best advice ever right there! Read read read! Understanding them makes it easy. Good documentary to watch is "more than honey". Also i went to a class given by the author of beekeeping for dummies and it was very good. Bees fascinate me to no end!

    KNIVES!! What kind/brand is best?

    Asking for ideas on how to "manage" coyotes

    Here we can bait them and spot light them. They came on the farm once i emptied my PAP m92 ak47 variant on them. They have never been back in 5 years.

    Or hook a wire to your + side of battery and with the key in the on position touch it to the spot where the little wire attaches to the selenoid. This should make it start. Let me know if it does

    Pig Tractor

    That looks cool! We just use hog panels and move the around. Two people can just grab and go, but ours are all electric fence trained as piglets and we dont have to deal with a horny boar. Can your setup be moved by hand or you need a vehicle?

    Take the wire off the starter selenoid that has the fuse. Put your meter on it turn key and see if it has 12 volts.

    The click you are hearing is the fuel selenoid. Thats a good sign. Was your key switch a direct replacement or a universal?

    horse & husband related frustrations....

    I was born and raised on a horse farm. There is nothing a horse can't be trained to overcome. My horse when i was a kid would follow me to hell and back. Your animal needs nothing more than a firm trusting hand. Never ever ever have i met a horse that couldn't change for the better, it just took...
