The Hay Bale
Ben turned his pickup around carefully because Wayne’s dog was barking and running circles around it. When the truck was in a good spot, Ben got out while Wayne, with a hay spear on his tractor, picked a large round bale of peanut hay from his warehouse. The dog watched Ben carefully. A large, black

Feeding Goats during a Drought
Except for Winter, when we buy peanut hay, we feed the goats by moving them around. We can usually leave them in one spot for about three days but there’s been so little grass growing lately that there isn’t even enough food in a paddock to last a day. So we’ve been augmenting with trees [...]

Cute but Stupid

After you leave, they’ll hop back in and, without the wavy-handed boogie-man threatening them, will swim aro

I’m not afraid of snakes… I’m not afraid of snakes…
But I’ll admit to a bit of discomfort from these two big guys lounging above the doorway to my 8×8 feed shed.

On the Injured List
Jay broke his leg. Since chickens have a ‘no excuses’ policy, the other roosters have been harassing him mercilessly, so we put him in a cage. We thought it would be a good idea to put him with a batch of chicks. After a few days, we decided he wasn’t happy with the situation and [...]

Duck Motherhood
Our usual plan is to let the ducks raise their own ducklings. This usually lasts about two weeks before the mother looses track of her brood and the ducklings eventually wander off to do their part in providing nourishment to natural fauna. It’s amazing to me that the Muscovy breed actually manages

Problematic Pigs and Parasites
The pigs gave me double heartache during a week that Sasha was away visiting relatives. First, they started getting out of their large pen, and second, I saw that they had parasites. The parasites are large white worms (that’s what they’re called as well as an apt description). Discovering them is a

World Hunger: One Solution is a Leading Cause
I submitted the following for one of my classes. The assignment was to write a “Cause and Effect” paper. World hunger persists despite tremendous scientific advancements. A person might think that we haven’t yet figured out how to produce massive quantities of food. That belief, if it were true, wou

Sus Destructivus
We’ve been very lax about the fact that our three little pigs can get out of the pen by squeezing under the fence. They’ve been harmless until today when they tore up the front lawn. Luckily, we don’t really have a front lawn because we haven’t finished the house, but the mess they made will [...]
