    Hijack away. but do it here - since its not culling project. I was thinking of lining up some IBC totes and a lot of PVC. Totes for the fish, flood and dump grow beds. I have a very nice sketch up somewhere.

    no Tilapia here for aquaculture. State won't permit it. Would have been my first choice otherwise. Well, maybe because I'm on a hill, a good bit from any water source, if I was doing it inside a room or building (like say, a green house) with no flooding risk (the hill), and periodic...

    Nope. Have had a few plants grow successfully in past years, but poor yields and big bug problems in the past (leaf footed bugs, mostly and something that bored into a few of the under ripe fruits that I never identified - but mostly the leaf footed bugs ruining the fruits.) Variety? Romas...

    Anything I can. Going to try aquaculture, but I would LOVE a decent tomato, not an artificially ripened, wharehouse stored facsimile of a tomato. We eat a probably 2-3 pounds of tomato a week, most weeks - would be nice to have options.

    I can virtually guarantee he gets two more months. I'm curious too.

    "he" does seem to have the legs for it. I had the same thought. Typically one of the more uprright stances among the birds as well. I will likely let the turkeys out of their pen next week, move these birds in. I'm sure they would like the space, and the turkeys are already as big as my...

    Foreground bird is interesting, but much darker than will do well on these grounds. The various red and "whatever" birds behind will all disappear better most months. The almost all black bird is in the picture, back right, hiding. I know it doesn't know what its future holds, but it does...

    OK, I've done a head count, looked at the new chicks, looked at the old ducks, taken a quick survey of the male/female ratios. Setting another batch of chicken eggs this weekend. and hopefully processing four birds - two drakes, two roos. and @LaurenRitz sorry I missed your comment last...

    I declare four of those "well colored" (and I am optimistic). Two as somewhere on the road to desired. The remaining two are looking like meal material.

    Everybody seems fine this AM. Hungry, but fine. Only the ducks are loving the grounds. The goats don't like it squishing between their hooves.

    Coming up on 5 inches of rainfall in four days. More rain expected today, again Friday. Looks like a few goats were sleeping in the hen house when we got last night's lightnng strike (pressure wave shook the camper, it was CLOSE). The left the hen house. By going thru a 4x4 sheet of concrete...

    Yup. And 7/8 not black or white. :)

    Another was a mid quit - I should have candled again before lockdown, didn't. The eggs on either side are seemingly developed, but not progressing. Will "interfere" Saturday, but not hopeful.
