  • I replaced the septic system 7 years ago when the one that came with the house failed after a few months. Fortunately I was able to get it completely replaced in just 24 hours. Haven’t had the money to get it pumped in the last two years. So it didn’t give us a choice. I’ll recover in a day or two from digging a three foot deep hole to access the cover so that they didn’t charge us for digging it out. But the pumping cost will take much longer to recover from.

    Still working on unclogging the vent.
















  • My first egg cost me $600. I’m 7 years in and if it weren’t for the fact that egg prices have escalated so much I’d still be losing money on every single egg because the industrialization of eggs makes it less expensive to buying them under normal circumstances.

    Now let’s talk about the reason they’re currently expensive. Bird flu. Imagine every yard with chickens in it. Instead of a few locations to protect, you now have hundreds of millions. Which results in billions of potential vectors for the spread of disease.

    I know everyday that I could walk outside and find my birds sick with the bird flu because some bird pooped by flying overhead. I may have to cull my entire flock of a dozen or so chickens, six five ducks and seven geese. And then when I decide to replace them I’m going to be priced out of the market by everyone else replacing their birds.









  • Goose eggs taste exactly like chicken eggs except that instead of being 30% yolk they are 50% yolk. Which means that in a standard goose egg there’s hey yolk that is the size of one and a half chicken eggs. And the yoke is The tastiest part

    Yes, I have to wrestle geese on a daily basis during the spring. I’m going to put it on my resume. I got throat punched by a goose wing tonight.
