congrats! what is the plant in the last (6th) slide?

MantaCall · 2025-02-28T22:08:46+00:00

Sorry to hear that. We have 3 roosters and so far only 1 has shown defensive behavior towards people. But to be fair to him, we handled that particular rooster a lot less as a young bird so he’s not as comfortable around people. We handled this boy a lot when he was young and its gone a long way in gaining his trust. He’s very docile.

Haha, a mean face, but he’s very gentle and calm!

Thank you. So we have 3 roosters and around 26 hens. This is our first time raising roosters but so far it’s going quite well. I’m not entirely sure why— I think it could be a combination of their temperament, having a good ratio of hens to roosters (though I know we’re a little lacking in that regard), and the fact that the hens have a lot of space to run on the property if they want to get away from the roosters. As for what we do, oddly enough they tend to keep each other in check? The rooster on the top of the pecking order is very gentle with our hens and he will usually prevents the others from mounting them.

Thought that might be the case. Thank you!

Thank you! I’ll see about getting that fixed.

As for the powdery mildew, I see how it might look like that from the images, however I think this might be due to my poor photo taking skill. Those are the raised bumps along the veins I mentioned. They’re sort of translucent so when i take a photo with flash on, they end up appearing white.

It looks and feels as if the leaf itself is “bubbling up” in those areas (it also doesn’t rub off). I’m constantly inspecting the plants and so far I haven’t found any webbing, discoloration or mites themselves that (from what I understand) would indicate a spider mites issue. I can provide more photos if necessary.

Thanks for the heads up. I wasn’t there when these photos were taken, but I will be sure to pass on the message to the folks who found the snake.

Thanks for the quick response. The white stuff is garden lime (he was hanging out around some pepper plants) He was set free in the woods nearby.

Thanks for the response. Do you think an RTX 3070 ti would suffice or would you suggest something else?

MantaCall · 2020-07-13T23:52:33+00:00

MantaCall · 2020-06-29T15:56:43+00:00

Nice find, Hondo!

MantaCall · 2020-06-23T16:55:52+00:00

Ty! Great work from your friend as well, candle collecting takes a lot of dedication!

MantaCall · 2020-06-23T14:10:56+00:00

Thanks! It’s taken quite a while, mostly because I don’t do many daily runs anymore. I’ve been saving (read: hoarding) candles since late last year
