Morning all. Just been doing chores here. Need to get to the feed store for a new sprayer and some epson salt for the most control on the corn and tomatoes and s fee other plants it works well for. Do not need any of the worms in my corn. Had a gosling nearly killed this morning by the geese it was tired and wanted to nap well the teenagers decide it was to weak to live so they were going to kill it. So far its making a come back had one die last night from unknown causes but now suspect the geese. I am going to seperate those big butt head teens asap. They be going to freezer camp maybe one or two will be allowed to live havent decide on how many to keep. Geese a naughty (atleast mine are) in large numbers so i tend to keep a flock smaller the 6 current number is at10 geese so four need to go for sure. Might just keep the current young gosling and let them grow and process the teens this fall. Anyways mostly normal stuff here. How is everyone else with all the craziness with riots doing? Praying that ends soon.

@Jesusfreak101 you use epsom salt on corn and tomatoes to keep worms out? Can you please explain?

Protests are fine but, the looting & fires are uncalled for destruction that hurts everyone. It has pulled the focus from the Covid issues. Maybe all things will soon level out.

I thought a drop of mineral oil on silks did the worms in.

Our 75# son stayed and assisted on the wagon the whole time. He's becoming useful.

He may not be able to heave them up there but he can get them squared up for travel.

@Baymule couple of years ago i was told by some farmers to use 1 tablespoon of epson salt for every gallon of water some plants like it others not so much. But corn and tomatoes seem to works well for.

@Mini Horses well the land fell into our laps really its family land we are looking for a plot of acreage for ourselves - yes there's a huge market for all birds out here pet types and farm types

@The_V's before i forget i have a question we got kunekune in and two or them are odd one ears have dry scabs in his ear and another has reddish looking rash like area above her hoofs. I see if I can get pictures. But thoughts because more then likely i be using these for breeding but some will maybe sold or used for depending and one might be pregnant.

Picture sorry they were more interested in getting scratched then pictures taken.

There was looting across the border in Spokane WA, and the group came to Coeur d'Alene ID yesterday/ last night. Citizens here were prepared. Hundreds were armed and ready to defend businesses and people if the need arose, but fortunately there was no violence.

My BIL in CA said that a town near his was hit hard. Banks and businesses were burned out and there was a lot of looting. The locals came out afterward with brooms and trash cans to clean up, and were told that the troublemakers were going to come back to harass the cleanup. One older gal with a broom and a firm resolve said, Sure! Bring it!!
