Creating a YouTube channel is easy -- even I was able to do it! I think you ought to start a YouTube channel about raising rabbits. You'd become famous. Then those snotty ladies at the spinning club would beg you to join!

Ha ha, that's a good idea ;) I'll look into it!

@Baymule I hope you get rain...:fl
I'll send you some...i'm tired of it already!
 
We got an inch of rain yesterday! The dust is settled, grass got a drink. There are green fields around here and dry brown scorched fields. It is easy to see which fields have humus in them and which ones don't. Over grazed and properly rotated-sure makes a difference. I've been watering m two little patches of Bermuda grass--that the sheep don't want to eat. :\ I am going to seed a mix of Bermuda and bahia next spring on our new ground. The horses love Bermuda. I need both grasses so I can have something to survive the summers here.

That's too bad. So far I haven't seen one lawn/pasture here with burnt grass...and I have no idea what kind of grass everyone has!
Whatever it is, the heat doesn't bother it at all.
Why won't the sheep eat Bermuda? :hu
 
Today was a good day for selling rabbits!
I sold an Angora to a guy who wants to breed him to his NZ meat rabbits....to make Lionheads :eek:
He sure thought it was a good idea...and I didn't tell him otherwise! :lol:
And I sold a Lop baby today too :yesss:

Have a great night everyone!
If you're in the path of storms...stay safe :hugs
 
Someone emailed me yesterday asking for pictures of Jessie's broken tort boy posing....
I wasn't expecting him to be good about it, but looks to me like he was born to be on the show table!
He's adorable :love

Because they are sheep. :idunno They like bahia, so in the spring I will seed the pipeline with bahia seed. The horses love Bermuda. The pastures will eventually wind up being a good mix of grasses. We had the horses 2 1/2 acre pasture forestry mulched, I'll plant Bermuda there. The sheep eat weeds. They love weeds. They will eat the Bermuda, but only after the weeds are gone.
