I am not too sure it will. I did read somewhere that it is a crop grown in many parts of America as well. But then again I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that everything freezes once a

Woah that sounds like a rough day... Oh man, dogs can get up to all kinds of trouble so fast. I must say, so far the fence is working out great, they don't dare cross the wire, and even when the power

I am going to try that. I am happy to hear that you have been doing well. Yes, I am crossing my fingers and holding my thumbs for the rats to stay at bay. Normally it gets better once the winter is over,

ha, well, at least you didn't take the neighbor out in the process. But yes, that sounds about like something I would do :D We only used the pellet guns because the bullets are much cheaper than the .22

Thank you so much. It's an ongoing struggle. My dogs are great ratters, but I have them confined to the yard at this stage. I have made a few rat cage traps, and they work pretty well; you catch 10+ a

Well they are coming in where the water pipes run out. Stuffing the holes is something that I have been wanting to do, although these rats will chew through bulletproof glass if they want to. I was tempted

Oh wow, thank you, I will give that a try! Here they get into the animal feeds, food storage, wiring, the bird aviary (they eat the chicks off the nest) and they attract snakes. It is such a pest.

Hahaha, he truly is the literal form of a 'horny old goat'

just goes to show that we all have our battles with nature. As for the snails, it is not a big problem here, but when I was working on the coast a few years back doing landscaping, I know that people there

haha true story that.

Thank you ever so much. It has been trying times, but we do what we can :D

nichemarket.co.za even 🤣 ffs

Great! I was just checking out nicemarket.com that's a pretty cool site. Are you on discord?

Well, fuck, what a coincidence. I am in Limpopo ha

You paint the most glorious images with your words. For a moment there, the depiction was tangible. As with everything in life, there are always pros and cons, however there will be beauty in everything

Well if you ever wonder off to Africa and find yourself close enough to my farm, I will destroy a cow for you in celebration LOL

That's rough, I can't imagine living in those temps. Ice falling from the sky, although an acknowledged occurrence, still seems apocalyptic to me ...

Oh dear lord, this is strangely... accurate. @dreemit I thought you might like this :D

Oh absolutely, its already doing that. This video was from a month ago, but seeing that I haven't posted in so long, I am playing catchup a bit :D Luckily the Nigerian dwarf goats are not as destructive

It makes sense, but seeing that they are reasonably fast-ripening fruit, I personally find that tomatoes sun-ripen better, especially if you put ripe bananas next to them. While avos and mangoes, for example,
