RE: Introducing FarmsteadSmith!
Thanks for letting me know. I have friends very into HAM, I was always just an internet guy myself. I would probably dig packet radio, if that is still a "thing" but in general, I can't afford another expensive hobby :) I already have pets, livestock, farming, offgrid gear, guns, cars, motorcycles, drag racing, skydiving and computer tech fetishes as it is to blow too much money on!
U haz the chickenz?????
LOL
I did... until coyotes also haz been hadz...
Coyotes took out my entire flock in one day while I was away at work in another city all day.
I also had goats, two horses and a mule, but I've since sold them as well. Well not the mule. Sadly she escaped a pasture fence and was killed overnight by a truck that hit her in the dark. She was in someone else's pasture and it wasn't my fence. I sold the goats after Oliva had two still born twins I had to bury on christmas eve of 2015. Disheartend by that, I sold them to someone better equipped for goats than me, and she has had two happy successful birthings since, making 4 more babies that are doing great on their new farm. I have had great luck with gardens and miserable luck with livestock.
These were my goats and chickens...
Aw shoot, that is some sad luck and stories but you have learned so much and it is nice to see that, and that your goat has had some good luck since too!!!!
Thanks for sharing that.
yeah, farming can be sad business. :(
Octavious does not care for the camera either like Olivia -- worse with food not around like you said hahahaha!
LOL
How did the coyotes get in that pen? Was the power for the fence down or?
Coyotes don't give a damn. They make honeybadger look like a pansy.
