@Baymule thank you! Running for adventure... Ot having a panic attack lol. I've never done well with change.
My husband has the cold now that I had last week. He's so whiny! He seems to forget that I had the same cold and took care of our daughter and all the animals. So today in the below zero wind chill weather he sat inside and moped on the couch while I did the animals. Whiner!!

@Bruce I think she will do chickens and such but she said she won't eat a bunny. Which is funny because when she gets mad at the psycho dog she asks if we can process her
(she's joking... I think
)

It kind of sounds like she isn't joking.

The dog wouldn't likely taste very good, probably tough and stringy

Got a few trees tapped yesterday, hung out outside most of the day. Went grocery shopping though, and saw a car on it's roof on the side of the road... It must have just happened, no police or anything. But everyone was out of the vehicle and looking more annoyed than anything. Dry pavement... Have no idea what happened. No cell service there either so I doubt they were texting.
Going to pick up the wiring stuff for the Jeep today, then we can use the trailer to get cattle panels. Finally.
May be getting a guinea hog boar to breed with my gilt... Waiting to hear back from the person, who apparently only checks their email every 4 days. Sigh.
Wild turkeys are bothering our turkeys again. I came home yesterday to turkey footprints in the snow, everywhere!

Sounds like you had a busy day. It's always fun to get the paper work back! We are working on our 3rd batch of maple syrup- we only do small batches at a time.

Nice! We don't have a method, still newbies, we just take what we can get lol.

our method is pretty simple, couple of bigger stainless steel pots, LP burners(like from a turkey fryer), heat sap until we get to 219*( DH like to filter the sap through the filters we use for filtering milk) and put into 8 oz glass jars.
