It gives me quite the giggle when I hear the pigs squealin' and look over to see the geese nibblin' ... but they keep going back and raiding their nests! I've since separated the 4-leggers and the 2-leggers ... the nests are filling up! Fingers crossed for lots of baby birds!
Absolutely do that! But it depends on a few variables how you should go about do it. I assume it'll be "hot and fresh" chicken compost. Use that on your hungry nitrogen plants. Your corn will love it! Fresh transplants though, I'd take the chicken compost out of the run, maybe add a little more organic matter, stir and wait for a bit. Then apply to your garden. My farmer mentor would do the smell test...if there's a hint of ammonia, wait. If it smells like yummy earth, it's good to go. In between, add to nitrogen loving plants. Hope this helps
Awesome seasonal combination good sir, thanks for your insights and explanations! If I may suggest a leaf tip, making many small piles and then harvesting into a bucket, wagon, or whee barrow can minimize leaf harvest time! Micro piles to pick up to form macro pile for compost lol
You are correct. I had the same problem. Your diagnosis is accurate. Moving that pin was a little tricky. With my hand I bent the red foot pedal, as if I were stepping on it, while I watched the pin and pushed in on that part of the pedal to bend it more. Once the pin was barely out of the square hole then I moved it into place, into the track. Easy. 30 seconds. Thank you.
THANK YOU!!! You are the only one who has correctly addressed this problem. I'm ready to break it or take it totally apart to fix it. Thank you. Blessed be.
