This is where I started, O These Many Years Ago. Already had a big garden but only a small flock.
It's Sunday and likely a good day to visit the Seed Racks at the garden center. Shucks, that twitch in my eye is back! Maybe just too much coffee!
Steve 😬
I will try a cup from that kettle, thank You!
Nearly time for my second breakfast and I have just opened the Cheerios box and have these blueberries from ... Chile! Well, I guess that's okay, it is January.

Swept maybe an inch of snow off the back steps and it is still too early for a second breakfast. Plant starts don't need water and are in some daylight. Seed company hasn’t replied as to why they only sent 1/4 of my order for new...
The sister sites are down?
TEG website loaded very slowly earlier today. Now, not at all.

Thank you, Sumi.

Website is down?
I don't find away to access and since the sprinklers are on out in my really garden, I've had a few hours to try to get on TEG.
Any announcements on The Easy Garden status?

I think it would be a good time for me to start that ruebeque sauce, don't you Bay'?
Now, that's not Seedcorn teasing you with North/South, you grow/I grow .
I have no idea whatsoever if rhubarb will make good barbeque sauce .

I doubt if they go hungry with some feed always available and most any kind of access to it.
They are motivated by actions and the responses of others. "Something new! It's edible! Others are eating it! Mine! Mine! MINE!" Those crops begin to fill up . . .
When they are down to powder...
Has that long-expected change to a new format begun?
My browser doesn't seem to be having any problems going elsewhere but I cannot access TEG the last several hours this morning.
Does anyone know?

Bean seeds have what are called, "anti-nutrients." They are inactivated by heat. Some beans have more anti-nutrients than others.
These components of the beans interfere with the digestion of other nutrients in the diet. But, these are found in mature seeds. I doubt if the same factors amount...
Farm chickens may not be fed, at all. If they are cleaning up after other livestock, they might gain enough nutrition to stay alive or even flourish. It isn't too likely if they are a modern breed, however.
Even in the chicken's Southeast Asian home, it isn't unusual for a flock to be a half...
