You brought up kinky Germans. What defines German kink more than scat?

I grew up on a working cattle/horse ranch. Dad forced me to be his gofer/laborer and now want nothing to do with farm animals. Hate horses, always out. Learned were the saying that grass is always greener on the other side of the fence came from. Cows do nothing but eat and shit. Chickens....filthy!!
Sorry C-Man, but they are. Goats, never had em so nothing to say. I love growing plants but you can keep you farm animals. Oh, forgot pigs, they eat and root in their own shit...enough said.

You guys will probably be aghast, but I find that I actually prefer tending to animals than plants, by far. The chickenbirds just crack me up! So, we're probably gonna have to figure out some pig, and I've been wondering just how difficult a milk cow would be, that's something I've never had to worry about.

The city I live in has allowed homeowners to keep up to half a dozen chickens- NO roosters, lol- for some years now. Local fox populations have grown even larger than when they have rabbits on campus property to eat! So, with a big aquaponics tank and a backyard chicken coop, I'll be wanting for neither fish nor fowl...

Sounds like you were forced forced into a farm lifestyle and never cared to learn how to properly care for livestock.
Properly managed there's less filth on a country farm than in downtown Denver Colorado. Also way less crime, traffic, noise, pollution, people, concrete, buildings, cops, daily rat race. Yuk..
Ever met a family dairy cow? they are very sweet and become like a member of the family.
Goats also are misunderstood, the stinkers are the breeding bucks and you only need them 2 weeks of the year. My goats are very clean and compete for affections. They smell great like lanolin and are soft to the touch.
Will post a pic of one of the meat chickens we will be processing tomorrow. beautiful red golden color, clean and healthy as can be.
I work my ass off cleaning barns and even city folk remark our barns really don't stink.
Sorry you asked for it, LOL., coming from a country boy growing up and old working his dream farm...!!!

The right milk cow is awesome. PG Dave must marry it as he must milk her 2 times daily after calf weans.
They love to get fed and milked. PG Dave will get used to milking daisy or whatever you name her daily at 530am the again around 6 pm.
After about 900 gallons gallons he will have a grip of steel and milk that cow out lighting quick.
Your duty is to skim cream, make butter, cheese, wash buckets, get set up for PG Dave's next milking....
Good luck, let us know the wedding day...

LOL, pute.

I love da animals...too much. They would all become pets and I don't kill pets. Would be like a fuckin zoo in no time... LOL.
The previous owners of the place we jut bought had peacocks, chickens, horses, goats, dogs, a cat....and probably a few more nobody saw/knew about. Neighbors are ecstatic we don't have any farm critters and they can no longer smell the property from the road. :eek: Don't think these folks had the same approaches as you do, CM.

We got emto take the coop and the dog house but the fookin barbed wire is still up where they built a corral for the horses.(we'll be getting that shit down soon....you can bet) Stoopid fuckers nailed it right to the trees.... WHAP. (Oh, and isn't the best place to keep horses and livestock just above your drinking well? Wow....some people and their crap (literally).

different strokes, different folks.......

Had a buddy/client/Farmer out for consulting over the last few days, which has put me behind on my rebuild off my veg system. Getting that caught up today is the goal!

Also getting my second chiller hooked up and working, for a total of 4 Tons of water cooling.Vertical bare bulbs, here I come!

Oh, Lord, I knew I might touch something off if I made that admission. Since I grew up getting up @3am (in the morning, as Dave likes to say) to get my horses ready for showing, I can probably handle getting up early to handle another anamule. :D

Oh, that's up there! Then there's the, "I'll let you cook my arm if you let me saute your cheek" thing... :eek:

You grew up living my dream. No cattle, but plenty of pigs (give 'em an acre or so, and they're very clean), the chickens, horses, I would have flayed myself alive for the horses at pretty much every turn, and I did eschew school for them. Chickens are chickens and they belong outside, but they're no dirtier than any other bird I've dealt with.

I don't think I can mount a horse now. :(

LMAO! Ok, you've convinced me. I don't remember Koppang's having to be that diligent with their lovely little Jersey milker, but alright. I suppose I deserve that when I've decided I support polygamy.

Regrouping today. Been on a roll...day after day of that "home improvement" thing. Seems like all I've been doing for the last month is sanding/caulking/staining/painting/digging/toting/planting/chopping/burning/chasing that carrot... wow.
After 2 years of depression and not doin a whole fuckin lot...it's been a serious redistribution of mood/energy/focus as well as a re-awakening of the physical. Talk about ongoing soreness/stiffness. Wow. The good thing is that so far....it's the >good< hurt....and nothing has tweeked/cracked/popped/bent the wrong way. You fuckin know what I'm talkin about.

Gonna amass more supplies for another rally/go of it this weekend. A sliding glass door install (after ripping out a door and window to make space for it)...and a huge/deep hole for a gate post (1 of 3) are looming in my future right now. Then of course...there's the wheelbarrow and the water and the concrete :rolleyes:

It's torture...but it's good torture. (and I can't afford to pay someone else to do it)

We did have the gate custom-made though.....so at least I got to slide by on that! (sliding on my wallet, that is)

Are we there yet?

Good for you, keep up the good work.
When your all done and moved in you will feel great at the work you have done.
Then you can come to our farm and do what you do best, after all that experience you will kick ass...
Still lots to do here even after 12 years.....

LOL. Sorry my friend.....but this is my last gasp in this area (home building/remodeling) on a large scale. By the end of next Summer I plan on delegating the work to someone else and simply writing the checks! Hopin to have a master suite added to the house, a greenhouse installed...and a barn built >before< we move.

And fuckin A...I'm not doing ANY of it, dammit!

Gonna take advantage of the beautiful Fall weather and finish painting the shanty here at the new place. Got on it yesterday when I got here and slapped in a (used-$75, from Habitat) sliding glass door in the garden room/sunroom. Say "bye-bye" to the interior wood door that was installed >backwards<...pins out and had 1/4" gaps all around it/wouldn't fully close...especially after a rain. Hopin to also dig some dirt...and not too many rocks, please....

The hard work is paying off. Place looks 100 X better than when the BillyBob's lived here. Don't ya just love white trash?
