DUCK waterer - non-splash- non-swim - non-poop

I have never wanted any waterfowl on or farm - I have always heard that they are messy - and found out after we had our first - rehomed - duck on the farm - water is EVERYWHERE! this was not good for having water inside the coops. - but since I have mads this contraption, we have had no problems with the messy water fowl on the inside - In the winter I submerge a bird bath heater (tied to a brick to keep it submerged) so the water does not freeze.

Growing up Emu

From start to finish, a brief summary of how the chick gets in the egg - out of the egg and grows up. We love having emus on the farm, besides keeping us entertained, they are used as livestock.

For some reason the camera on my phone did not record the recipe while mixing and kneading. But most of the rest is in the video - I tripled the recipe (in the video) to do a bulk ferment and pre-shape.

Milling my own wheat with the Vevor Grain Mill 2500g model

มุมมอง 2K10 หลายเดือนก่อน

I purchased a grain mill from Vevor (2500g model). It will grind pretty coarse in a 10 second burst. In ordered to get the flour grade you want, you will need to sift and regrind until you have it as fine as you need it. I love to have a coarser flour, as I can always mix in some white bread flour into my whole wheat flour. The wheat berries I have in this video are hard red wheat berries

Goat & Chicken Proof Emu Feeder

มุมมอง 441ปีที่แล้ว

I have built a few different emu feeders, mostly to keep the goats out. Now I'd like to keep the chickens out too, so it was back to the drawing board to make something without having to purchase any materials. You can make this one with a removable/lockable top access (to put food in and keep rain, goats and chickens out) - just place it high enough so the chickens cannot easily fly right into...

banneton baskets

มุมมอง 47ปีที่แล้ว

Many people use banneton baskets to get the pattern of the basket on their breads. After many uses, you may get dough stuck in the grooves, which may or may not come out with the next loaf. . . If you have this problem - especially with sticky dough - try avoiding flour as a dusting agent on your bannetons

มุมมอง 53ปีที่แล้ว

We prefer our apples a little more crisp after canning, we don't make many pies, so canning pie filling is not something that is beneficial to us. I got a free package of mrs. wagers Spiced Peaches... we only buy peaches to eat fresh. So the obvious thing to do is to use our bruised apples and try this out. I started with about about 15lb of apples - peeled, cored and sliced thick I ended up wi...

homemade fresh yeast- from dry yeast- Never buy yeast again

มุมมอง 22Kปีที่แล้ว

When I was young, we only used fresh yeast to bake. Fresh yeast is hard to find in the US. Dry yeast has its pros: It keeps well, it is readily available and easy to use - also many recipes here call for dry yeast. But I want to get to my roots again and NEVER BUY YEAST AGAIN So here we are -making homemade fresh yeast from dry yeast. Which in itself gets you 10x the yeast you started with - th...

You can grow many things from seed. Many people buy "starters", but you are truly wasting your money on most of those. Even potatoes can be grown from shriveled up sprouted old potatoes. But did you know you can plant potatoes "TPS" - true potato seeds? Also instead of buying expensive seeds for growing, it is cheaper to buy those same seeds as a food (if they are for consumption)- look in the ...

I realize this is controversial - However I grew up helping and eating what was preserved after a harvest. Many things we did, were out of necessity and to this day is still practiced world wide. For some instances I choose to err of the side of caution, but mostly for myself I still do thing my mother taught me. Looking back, they can't be wrong. Less people were sick with the diseases that pl...
