@BDutch Here in the states the wildlife biologists say that you must kill 80 percent of the wild boar population in order to keep the population in check. Once a sow reaches 6 months old she starts breeding and has 2 or 3 litters of piglets every year. These litters average 10 or more piglets. This may or may not correlate wild hogs in Europe. I do not believe in killing for the sake of Killing but in the case of wild hogs in Texas, it is very necessary.But its very difficult to get a permit and to hunt them down. The population kept expanding until 2 years ago. In the cold winter we had back then, the hunters managed to kill about half the wild boar population.
Luckily we don’t have a wild boar problem here - I gather they can be devastatingly destructive and are also dangerous.@BDutch Here in the states the wildlife biologists say that you must kill 80 percent of the wild boar population in order to keep the population in check.

And giving stomachs/intestines pains if I eat too much.And very delicious it is too!
I never heard biologist here say this. But the people against shooting and the ones in favour always disagree.Here in the states the wildlife biologists say that you must kill 80 percent of the wild boar population in order to keep the population in check.
Now I’ve seen everything! I love it!which explains why it's our national veg

I realize i’m complaining for what is just normal summer temperatures in many places. The warmer we ever get is 32 /90, so that makes a big difference for us, and I don't handle heat well. Yes, it cools at night, but mostly at dawn, toward 4, down to 22/71. We’re lucky, in Nice it's staying in the 90 at night though it's not as hot during the day.@ManueB
I am sorry about the heat wave. 38c is hot! but it cools down a bit during the night due to your altitude, right? I hope Blanche makes it and surprise you again.
Well, not me to the best of my knowledge, but the chickens, yes.are you still struggling with worms?
Nasturtiums are the same stories for me as borage. I love them, I keep trying to grow them, and it's always a failure. I think next year i’m going to grow them in a pot because that's the only way I succeed in having more than two or three .I was reminded of this homebrew
https://www.fresheggsdaily.blog/2012/04/pumpkin-soup-nasturtiums-natural.html which you might want to try? This is the right time of year for quite a few of the foods she's recommending. On nasturtiums btw I recently discovered that (as wet plant tissue, so as foraged) they're packed with vit A (nearly twice as much as raw kale), and have half as much again calcium as has dandelion.
I hope your chickens appreciate your dedication to the cause! Thanks for the summary, it was very interesting.I went through a vet thesis on the history of veterinary anthelmintics from the 70s to now

This is an amazing photo!welcome .
I wish I had the energy to do a real summary, but it's harder for me to translate in English, and my brain is totally fried with the heat !I hope your chickens appreciate your dedication to the cause! Thanks for the summary, it was very interesting.
Incredible!And now they're learning to swim View attachment 3616861
