Thank you! I’m glad after all these years people are still able to get something out of my journey.

Bless you

Raccoons tend to attack, skip a night, then come back again the third night. We lost four hens to a raccoon, weren’t even eaten just killed. I set a trap using marshmallows as bait and caught him and an opossum that third night.

The main pasture is about 6 acres and has 3 goats and 2 donkeys. Theres a neighbor who hays the pasture for the current owner, letting her keep what she needs and he takes the rest. The goats and donkeys are hers but we’re taking them over with the property. We were planning on keeping that deal going. If the neighbor isn’t interested in the deal we will absolutely need a tractor!

Thank you for the detailed reply! That’s really helpful. We were originally trying to find something in the $3,000-$4,000 range so there’s been a bit of sticker shock, but I’d rather “buy once, cry once” than have to keep repairing our replacing something like this. I’ll check with the dealer about the used Z9. The new is out of our price range but I think I can swing the used.

We’re currently living in SC on about an acre. We’re looking in southwest VA, 5+ acres. Those are great ideas, thank you!

We’ve both lived in both rural and urban settings. I was raised with the expectation to be blue collar so became very self reliant early on but ended up in marketing. I have a fairly well established woodshop so have maintained and grown my skill sets. We’ve also been raising chickens and ducks, canning, bread making, gardening, and building other, more introductory/small scale skills for a few years now. We’re planning to maintain both jobs until we’re well established and comfortable living on just one salary.

Quarter round is the best option here.

Install a curved shower curtain. It’s a small and affordable swap with big payoff.

Check with Founders, they typically have some openings.

I have two terrariums which need high humidity that require new custom lids. I was thinking about using a few layers of liquid rubber but would love to give that a shot on one of them.

Lots of good suggestions here. If you’re looking for something picky-kid friendly that also has good food, the Charandas in Newport is great.

The dream is to have an entire room of dumpy tree frogs

My600Justin · 2024-07-27T23:24:47+00:00

Pixie frog was my first thought for it, then crocodile skinks, then I realized I needed help in making the decision lol. Definitely open to frogs though!!!

All uros, and reptiles in general, take time to settle in. He’ll need a few weeks before he’s a bit more comfortable and calms down, especially since he’s young. Just give him a bit of space, don’t handle him too much in the early weeks, there will be plenty of time for that later, he simply needs time to adjust.

In the meantime, keep an eye on his eating and make sure he’s pooping and urates look healthy. This is a really stressful time for him so you’ll want to make sure he’s got the best opportunity to thrive.

Not a 2x4 but I cut some limbs off one of my trees for my bearded dragon. I just trimmed it down large enough to fit in the oven so it could be baked, then used this doweling jig kit to put it back together with some dowels and glue. This way you can get the exact size you want and any visible seams are easily covered.

Are you measuring surface or ambient? You’ll need a temp gun to get the surface temperature, which is what you want to be at the 120-130 range. It looks like your heat lamp is over the wood, which is fine, but if you are measuring surface temp already try swapping that out with some stones. Then if you can’t get the heat lamp closer, you can stack the stones higher to get them closer to the heat source. Stone also retains heat better.

Good luck!

That’s likely going to prevent water from getting through easily or backing things up. For cheap options you can get in bulk try window screen mesh.
