    I spit out my Beulah coffee when you said her milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. 😂😂😂 That’s the most appropriate use of those lyrics I’ve ever heard.

    Hi Mia & Jess, cattle rancher here. We had our vet give us a tip many years ago. When one of our cows retains her placenta, we get a 1/2 gallon plastic juice jug filled 3/4 way with water and tie it to the cord. The weight of the jug will put tension on the placenta and it will not harm the cow. Gravity and time (a day or two) do the rest. And it saves you a vet bill.

    So so sweet! I'm feeling honored again.. Little Debbie, my namesake shared with a beautiful baby calf🐂, arriving among Storm Debby..
    I grew up in the era of lots of Debbie's, named after Debbie Reynolds, who was famous in the 1950's and then Little Debbie treats were marketed in 1960 named after founders 4 yr old Granddaughter. There were lots of Debbie's in my classes growing up in the 1960's.
    I'll enjoy watching Little Debbie grow up along with all your sweet white Lambs. "Jess has a lot of Little Lambs!"🐑🐏💞another fun day at @roots_and_refuge farm 🌻 Blessings, Deb

    Omg I can’t get enough of Little Debbie! She’s so precious. I love this life you’ve created for yourself. ❤ This is what I dream of having one day, but also I don’t think right now is my time for that. As much as I want the big farm and all the animals, I am so busy with homeschooling 4 young kids and still working a full time job in addition to the homesteading journey we’ve been on. I hope to make it to “Jess” level when my youngest hits his teens, so another ten years or so? My ultimate dream is that I just want to be able to provide them all with nourishing food when they’re adults. I know how stressful it is finding healthy food and being able to afford it, so if I can feed them and their families I’ll feel so blessed. Thanks for all your inspiration as always! ❤🍅👩🏻‍🌾🐓

That is part of my problem. I feel like I am missing out on all these animal learning. I know the next step is finding a community and maybe learning chickens from someone else a bit.

    @Dan_Slee 27 дней назад

    In regards to making breeding (and culling) decisions, when it comes to holding back, don't look only at how many you have, and how many you produce. Do you have any problematic ewes that might need replacing sooner than later? Do you have any ewes that are a prime example of what you are looking for in your flock? You've had the group for a bit now and are going through lambing, so keep notes and think of things from multiple angles so you can make the right decisions that will help you in the near and long term futures.
