I think that if there any true men left in Europe, of European descent, that it's going to kick off there soon. I think most of the third world people, especially the Muslims, will be driven from Europe.

If that happens, the same will likely happen here, but more peacefully.

I know Angela. I just thought my cousin Savell, with a zipper for a mouth, would make a funny picture after he told you to "Zip it woman!"

I'm hoping to make over $60,000.00in inventory for our nursery this year, on the cheap.

….I didn’t finish reading it all

…but are you related to Johnny Appleseed… or someone like that ?


Unsurprisingly.

He lived a few miles from here too. I have wild apple trees on my farm, that could be out of his.

We have an 11x14 greenhouse next to the garden. Had good hold overs from the winter. Had some parsnips that made it trough. Salad greens, spinach, cilantro are booming. Second round of radishes already in there. Have some tomatoes and squash starts in there ready for transplant. Carrots, peas, parsnips are just staring in the garden. We went from onions to shallots instead. Ill never look back, they are great and store well. Have a few asparagus too. Strawberries and raspberries are flowering good. Service berries looking great

We got nuked by a frost last week. We have 13 fruit trees. We had great pollination this year but a few of the trees look like they got to frozen. Bummed. One is a plum that produces over 100#. The apples look fine. We will see in another few weeks

I think not the best way to go. I prefer 2x2 11 gauge.

Was wondering if you'd comment on this lol. You get that stuff custom made if I remember right , right ?

Trapping in the water for coon: I like to be near water, but a DP on a trail works better imo.
Finding 'the' spot for a coyote trap: I'd rather gang set snares on 20 faint trails than try to find 'the spot' every time. I took five coyotes off of roughly 60 acres with just snares, including a really old smart one that knew where all my traps are.

A caveat to all I've said above; I am yet inexperienced and my opinions may change as a branch out and cover more territory and get more traps out.

I think with experience you will learn that pocket sets in the water will by far out perform DPs. Pockets will also catch bonus rats and mink.

I agree. you can't beat a pocket set for coons, plus they catch mink and rats.

Hair and bone are about 90% protein, so the diet needs a lot of it for that size of an animal. WI does not have a resident or even transient moose population.

I normally process my on deer, but it is so easy to just take them to the processor. During a recent trip, the processor got a call from a hunter regarding the cost to cape and process a 662 lb black bear in Eastern NC. The clerk handed the phone to the owner and the quote was $1 per pound. Ouch. I saw the gutted bear when it came in. It must have had 3-4” of fat under its hide, and the inside was very fat also.

Our bears get huge. A 600 lb bear is not at all uncommon anymore.

Knowing how, why, & when to use a 3-4-5 right triangle! This goes hand-in-hand with the lack of ability to read a frigin rule(tape measure) and I don’t mean a slide-rule either!!! How many remember using a slide-rule eh???

Ok guys , peg ran across this one last night on Amazon prime.
I just finished watching it.
If you have an incredible sense of humor,,, you have to watch it.
It’s so stinking stupid,,, but hilarious.
If you are more of a serious nature,,, this movie probably isn’t for you.

I can’t even begin to describe it…. I laughed all the way through it,,, plenty of gags.
It’s on Amazon prime,,, not sure if it’s on any other streaming services.

Is that a factory drowning lock on the ring? I don't like that much chain between my trap and the drowning lock, but that is from trapping beaver and otter in small shallow streams. It is pretty cool that the new trap comes with a drowning lock.

I must be super lucky then, my last 4 f150s have all gone 275k plus with no major issues aside from my own self burning a transmission up. Basic stuff, oil, sparkplugs, brakes etc. did all that myself. Put 100k on the last one andvsold it in running condition. It had 298k on it.

I've been building some dogless wolf traps and I used the same black tubing and 1/4" bolts on them. I don't understand the sizing on tubing, they call inside diameter of .269 an 1/8" tube and I believe 1/4" tube is just under a half inch ID.

I left the pans floppy on my 850s, I prefer that over their newer pans, and just threaded the ends of the spring pins and put a locking nut on them. I just removed the big wolf swivel from the D ring and replaced it with a crunchproof, which is much smaller and eases bedding, but my dad used welded cold shuts, rather than a swivel there and moved the first swivel down the chain a few inches, to make it nice and flat like you did, to really make bedding easier. That stiffener isn't a bad idea, I've had to straighten a pan or two (and just about every dog) after a catch.
