Sadly I think these things happen everywhere. I've seen some of the same issues too.
For a while now DH and I have been seeing the same Dr or her associate. We have to drive 1 1/2 hrs one way. It is a rural coastal community and both Dr are from there and plan to stay. Best thing is they...
I mostly see box turtles here but do see snappers sometimes. I scoop them up with a wide flat shovel and release them near a canal. Not touching those guys! Yes they get big.
My chickens will not eat them. They will just play with then till they die and leave them. :barnie
Silly girls.
Now, let a lizard run by. He does not stand a chance.
It is always hard for me to decide this too the way our spring temps flip flops up and down. Seems I always end up having to stick them back in the greenhouse at least 1-2 times.
I think this year's growing season is 2-3 weeks ahead. Although I am not ahead. Most of the veggies are planted but...
I still do not know what county in NC the affected dairy herd is in. So far they announced counties for birds and mammals, wonder why not the cows? I would like to know.

I tried to get that neighbor to compost their leaves. No dice. Not interested. I asked could I have most of them??? YES!!! I now get as many as I can from her leaf pile to lessen the fires. They still burn some.
Another family on the other side of our property decided they wanted to...
We have a neighbor who burns large piles of limbs, leaves etc on the ground. They decided to clean up the burn pile to get rid of the ash, coals. They were still hot!. Instead of wetting them down and burying them, they scooped them up with a shovel and dumped them by the woods at the back of...
As long as mine are eating, drinking fine and no one is picking on them, not acting sick, I leave them with the flock. I do still watch them. It is helpful if you know which egg is hers but as long as there is no more soft shells, and the birds continues to act normal I assume alls fine. I do...
Hopefully she was in the act of laying this and the contents were all expelled too. The calcium may help her expel any stuff she didn't lay and harden any future egg.
When I find this I do the calcium too. I will also check their tummy periodically to check for swelling/fluid. If there is...
Yes. We have 3 parcels too. The paper offers make good compost! 😂
They either want to buy the land or loggers wanting our trees. We like our trees. Privacy.
If anyone logs or sells this property, it will be my grandson's decision. We plan to stay right here.
I think the people that make...
