Bunmo posted:Hey sup Isaac goat haver. You seem super cool! Is a Wolf Goat Fish Man welcome in this thread? I am friend to all living creatures. Even the tasty ones! That being said goats are better used for clean garbage disposal, companionship, and milk. Im not quite sure what goatfishman is but they are welcome.

Cowboy Pope posted:We used to have a field full of goats in my neighborhood. One time my buddy was really bummed out so we went out drinking and he was still pretty morose, but on the way back from a snacks run we passed by the goats. He fed them some chips and laughed like a child and it made me pretty happy to see him catch a break. This is my main goat story. I think most herbivore/prey animals are very theraputic to interact with if they let you. What kind of sicko could not look at or even touch a rabbit without an elevation in their mood?

Lolie posted:Does she lay them somewhere predictable or just wherever? Shes in a pen atm because haters dont like chicken poo poo everywhere. I think its pretty uncommon to get buahfires here cause we're high up and its cooler. If there was one it would be hosed up cause there is a national forest edge about 200m away thats a trillion tons of fuel.

Modest Mauser posted:Christ. Heat is just awful, I do not understand how people live comfortably in these places. In the southeast where most people live there will be a week or so of 40+ a year. Everywhere else can get very hot. Darwin is like 40 at midnight in the winter.

Lolie posted:How did Becky, the goats, the sheep and the dogges hold up to today's heat? I was in town and it was very hot. I just got home and everything seems alive. I haven't been in the bush for 6 years and i b forgot about the fire danger signs. Windy as gently caress and 38 degrees and it was only at 'severe' what kind of weather gets the top rating 'catastrophic'?

Lolie posted:"Catastrophic" is when conditions are such that it's unlikely a fire could be brought under control and people need to evacuate early. It's never safe to stay and defend in catastrophic conditions - you'll lose your water supply and shelter and you'll lose visibility and escape routes. I remember The canberra fire where even in safe areas The sky was totally red. felt like an alien planet. News stories from the vic ones a while ago about families frying in their cars were hosed up.

I dont have any cute pics today but instead a lesson on free range eggs. This many chickens will tear up a peice of ground till its mud in a day or two. It improves the soil in the long run but they need to be moved a few times a week. Look at this pic and imagine 100 chickens for every one, never being moved. You can call that free range legally.

Nubile Hillock posted:How in the heck do you move all those chickens?? They roost in a shed every night so you move it a little bit regularly and tgwy leaen to follow it. If you move it too far for their bird brains they swarm into a huddle and mass death occurs cause chickens are very hot animals and they die of heat in a few minutes.

On that topic the local area has some weird beef goinf on between landcruisers and patrols. People wearing partisan shirts and decals on their car. Theyre all involving some kind of injoke or they are written by schizophrenics, not sure which.
