@The_V's I see you raise a lot of bird types.....a market for them where you are? Another question -- any reason you chose the desert for your farm? It has it's own rules. LOL

@promiseacres good job on the hay. I'm sure it will be so much easier when you can actually LIVE AT the new farm. You got more done than I in the garden, for weed control. My kids used to help -- then they grew up!

Today it's 70 but a brisk breeze makes it cooler. Long sleeves & I'm ok. Wanted to do a few transplants but not in this as the wind just takes a toll. Maybe tonight.

Guess the in progress fence replacement will get my attention for a while. Seems never ending. Been here 20 yrs & some fence was used when it went up. Better get back out there.

Enjoy your day

Morning all. Just been doing chores here. Need to get to the feed store for a new sprayer and some epson salt for the most control on the corn and tomatoes and s fee other plants it works well for. Do not need any of the worms in my corn. Had a gosling nearly killed this morning by the geese it was tired and wanted to nap well the teenagers decide it was to weak to live so they were going to kill it. So far its making a come back had one die last night from unknown causes but now suspect the geese. I am going to seperate those big butt head teens asap. They be going to freezer camp maybe one or two will be allowed to live havent decide on how many to keep. Geese a naughty (atleast mine are) in large numbers so i tend to keep a flock smaller the 6 current number is at10 geese so four need to go for sure. Might just keep the current young gosling and let them grow and process the teens this fall. Anyways mostly normal stuff here. How is everyone else with all the craziness with riots doing? Praying that ends soon.

@Jesusfreak101 you use epsom salt on corn and tomatoes to keep worms out? Can you please explain?

Protests are fine but, the looting & fires are uncalled for destruction that hurts everyone. It has pulled the focus from the Covid issues. Maybe all things will soon level out.

I thought a drop of mineral oil on silks did the worms in.

Our 75# son stayed and assisted on the wagon the whole time. He's becoming useful.

He may not be able to heave them up there but he can get them squared up for travel.

@Baymule couple of years ago i was told by some farmers to use 1 tablespoon of epson salt for every gallon of water some plants like it others not so much. But corn and tomatoes seem to works well for.

@Mini Horses well the land fell into our laps really its family land we are looking for a plot of acreage for ourselves - yes there's a huge market for all birds out here pet types and farm types

@The_V's before i forget i have a question we got kunekune in and two or them are odd one ears have dry scabs in his ear and another has reddish looking rash like area above her hoofs. I see if I can get pictures. But thoughts because more then likely i be using these for breeding but some will maybe sold or used for depending and one might be pregnant.
