Rainbow carrots are so fun. But not the point. My question is, why if I dig our own carrots are they getting floppy the next day but if I buy carrots in the store they last for months.

Caught this guy last night. It got 6 of my 7 Call Ducks. Wondering if they tend to be solitary or do I need to be on the alert for a mate?

Feeding the chickens some scratch. She is supposed to ask for help, but does she, NO. Every day she gets just a little for them and I find her doing this. It’s awfully cute, I just don’t want her to give them a ton they don’t need. Apparently she has it under control.

Little Penny loves the heat register. She lost her mom and all her siblings so we have her now since she was 3 1/2 wks.

My first post here and I have not traded before (but working on one 😁). I have 3- 4 inch pots of rooted Callisia Repens Bianca for trade. Very full. Not sure what these are worth to people so just make offer. Would like to ship these out tomorrow because the weather is still warm. Thanks

Seriously. I tell her to stay out of the run but still goes in the birds’ door. At least she had shoes on.

Finally did the dreaded repotting job. Didn’t go as badly as I feared. But, so glad it’s done for a while now.

So fun to see them finally using something you made for the correct purpose. They are not all perfect but that’s OK.

Always wondered what is stuck on some of the potatoes I grow. All I can think of is worm castings?

Color changing violet. I changed the fertilizer I was giving it from 7-7-7 to 8-14-9, both listed as African violet fertilizer. The 7-7-7 caused the flowers to turn the light color but the violet is actually supposed to be the dark color that it turned back to after changing to the 8-14-9.

I just love the amazingly large blooms coming on this one. It changed colors on me from when I bought it but I think I like it better this way. Reminds me of cotton candy. Can’t wait for all the buds to open up.

Is getting a boobie cactus for a friend that is not a plant person but just had a mastectomy and is getting chemo for breast cancer a morbid/insensitive thing to do? I thought it might be cute instead of flowers but maybe I’m just weird. Thoughts? (Not my picture)

Help with introducing please. 6mo old Willow and 8 wk old Penny. Trying to go slowly and I’ve watched videos but not having success. The baby gate doesn’t work. Willow just goes over it. She is almost getting more aggressive. I have to keep backing things off. Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

Curious what you guys do for the process of giving eggshells back to your chickens. I haven’t done it before and trying to figure out the best way.
