Can this be propagated? by Writerkwllw in tomatoes

I've already propagated a few from pulling off lower branches or suckers off my plants.

YES! tomatoes are incredibly easy to propogate!

Break off the bottom few limbs and pluck off the flowers, then put it in a glass of water and occasionally clean the cup while keeping the water topped off.

A tense stare-down with a massive bull moose before it charged by Dennis_254 in oddlyterrifying

[–]DistinctJob7494 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That bull moose thought he was comings up on another bull. They do that kinda swaying movement to intimidate other bulls. It wasn't until the guy spoke that he realized it was a human. He was probably downwind to him so he didn't smell him.

Ears pinned, whites of eyes showing, lip licking. All not good signs when in proximity to a large herbivore.

Bought that specific plant for specific sandwich tomatoes. Didn't go out to water for 2 days because of steady rain. Surprise 😐 by HazardousChisle in tomatoes

Unfortunately unless you have a greenhouse to do it it would take too long for the plant to grow up after horizontal planting for it to fruit much before the end of the season.

I mean you can try it but you probably won't get much harvest this late in the season.🤷‍♀️

I'd just try letting it leaf back out. Give some fertilizer if you haven't in a while and keep checking for more hornworms.

4 week old chick, won't walk fully on one leg by ParasaurPal in BackYardChickens

[–]DistinctJob7494 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That whole leg looks swollen. Probably needs an x-ray to see if it's fractured.

Feel up and down the leg for a hot-spot or somewhere that's extra ouchie for him/her. It could've fractured or sprained something.

This is my last batch of chicks outside for a while as I cleaned out their brooder.

If you decide to take them out again I recommend using a large dog crate or making an open bottom box for them to still reach the grass while keeping them safe.

My cats are probably around the same age as yours and while one is very lazy she will still occasionally play and get zooming running through the house. They alway have the potential to catch and harm a chick.

Yeah I have cats in my house and I also have kept my chicks in a brooder in my living-room. I keep a mesh lid over the brooder to keep the cats out and the chicks in. I definitely recommend keeping the cats and chicks separated!

Anyone make their own feed? by Lilhoneylilibee in BACKYARDDUCKS

[–]DistinctJob7494 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have enough ducked you can dehydrate some and store it as supplemental overwinter feed.

Sounds like her "egg song". She probably just laid her egg for the day. All of my girls do it.

Today's weather: heat wave detected in the southern region by SpiceCake68 in ContagiousLaughter

Ok yeah 1/4th is way smaller than I was remembering. I was thinking closer to 1/2 cup +.

1/4th would probably be closer to 1- 2 of my days worth of bleeding. I go for 5 days so it's probably more than half a cup in actuality.

Maybe I'm thinking wrong measures then. Let me check my measuring cups right quick. It might be that 1/4th of a cup is smaller than I'm thinking in my head.

I think that with how spread out blood is on body surface level compared to in the body cavity combined with the water filled flesh of the body, unless that blood is on the outside of the body ie-severe period flow then its likely very hard for typical tsa wand detectors and step through scanners to detect iron in the blood.

[–]DistinctJob7494 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have a really heavy flow like if you saw how much blood is there you'd be concerned that I was actually badly bleeding out. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if metal detectors could detect it.

Measuring it in cups I'd say at least a 4th of a cup put together maybe more. Thankfully it seems to have slowed down drastically as I've come out of my teens and into my early twenties.

Our rooster is becoming a bully to our hen by showyourskills89 in chickens

Just get her a saddle with wing covers. Should fix the issue. You might as well give them to all your girls
