I expect it's time for an update.... I've been ridiculously busy since I landed, and it's been a heck of a ride! I'm renting a room from a neat guy, and while it hasn't been a bucket of roses, it has been very interesting across the board. We found a nice place that needs some work, but...

Thanks everyone! Sold the whole rabbtry to some nice young folks getting started in rabbits tonight. Didn't get near what they were worth, but it's cash in hand. Last up, 2 lowline angus bull yearlings for $1200 each...

Gang, big news on the home front... I threw my hat in the ring for a big promotion, and i got it! Soooooooo....... We're headed to Cleveland, TN ! Anyone looking for satins in the general vicinity of Prescott AZ? We're selling everything out across the board, and we'll start fresh when we...

I quit vaccines when i left the military. I found zero benefit in getting them. Ymmv. Besides hating getting poked with a needle, i hate the dentist too. I have to use wrist straps to essentially restrain myself for the doc's safety. Years ago, a dentist poked me and hit a nerve. I...

Rule number 1 in any negotiation it's to get the other guy to name a price. You can never do worse than their offer, and often will do much better than you think you would before hand. If you name a price first, you can only negotiate down. When i put prices on stuff and critters I'm...

My money says you're looking for moldy conditions, likely correlated to the feed areas, possible bedding link. If you got shavings with walnut in them, that would do it. Walnut has toxins in it that are lethal in small amounts when ingested. I loved working with the wood, but i had to use...

Personally, I'm partial to 230 grains of "go to hell" delivered at 1100 feet per second. Most criminals have acute lead deficiency anyway......

Having first hand knowledge of the goings-on within the rescue arena, i can understand both sides of this equation. Having grown up 45 minutes from Ithaca, i am aware of the people that live there... And the op post makes a lot of sense. Doesn't excuse the obnoxious behavior of the reply...

Respectfully, when i see "rare" on cl, in my head i hear "bat spit crazy person trying to milk something for more than i know it's worth". Around here, people think they need to use rare in their description, but in truth, it's very unusual to have it be true. I think you're doing yourself...

A ziplock baggie with rabbit poop in it, and a label they says "smart pills". Anyone that eats one will likely say "this tastes like crap! " To which you can honestly say "it is! You're smarter already! " <br /><br /> __________ Wed Dec 10, 2014 9:48 pm __________ <br /><br /> A ziplock...

Pikku, I have a line of Californian/satin cross that grow pretty fast. I have a batch of babies being weaned this week if that's something you'd be interested in. I haven't sexed them yet, but I'm pretty sure I've got both male and female in there. <br /><br /> __________ Sun Dec 07, 2014...

A couple things I've learned being in business... Cash flow is the lifeblood of a business. Keep a reserve on hand to float your thin times. Learn to be a leader, and aspire to be a great one. Friends are friends until the free stuff stops. Invest your time into your top 10% of your...

Joe, That's awesome! What breed is that? They're gorgeous! <br /><br /> __________ Tue Oct 21, 2014 10:10 pm __________ <br /><br /> Joe, That's awesome! What breed is that? They're gorgeous!

Anatomically, a turkey is just a really big chicken. I butcher for 4 families around here, start to finish, including packaging for the freezer. I took a fat log round, put two nails into it about 2 inches apart, and that's my beheading setup. Put the chicken or turkey head between the...

Deciding what to do with a given situation is generally a quick decision. Whenever I'm faced with an either or type situation, i go with my first instinct. Seems like the deciding factor for you would be more in the long term results, and your ultimate desired outcome. It also seems like...

From the original post, it would seem like you're looking for a buffalo chopper type appliance. Think industrial grade food processor. It will cut young bones that haven't fully hardened, but fully calcified bones, no. You really will have a hard time with the bones, unless you have a...

Having dealt with predators that developed a taste for livestock in the past, the only effective solution is to end the threat. A bear cannot be reasoned with, nor can you scare it away. It has already figured out where the easy food is, and that's your neighborhood. A bow will take a bear...

For myself, i dislike taking life unnecessarily. Each time i dispatch an animal taken for food, i honor the animal for its sacrifice in providing itself as food for our nourishment. I thank the animal beforeidispatch it, and make use of everythingican from each carcass. Feathers go to...

I used diatomacous earth when ifound them in my garden. They have an exoskeleton that gets shredded when they pass over or through it. Same fight used against scorpions.
