They're the Cornish cross of cows

Okay, you win the Internet with that one, I almost snortled my coffee out lol!

Hopefully they aren't like a pack of raptors at feeding time, boy do I ever have Cornish Cross stories.

And it's so cool that you are just doing the learning thing, that is my favorite part about homesteading, it's like discovery overload. One of my favorite things every was taking a journeyman beekeeping course from WSU while pregnant, I looked super awesome hiving bees 9 days before my daughter was born, like an oompa loompa honestly, but it's the learning part right? 🤣

Also, I love pecans, they are just magnificent, they are also a no go for us here up in the northlands, so I am super stoked for you to grow up and get the pecans, peaches, and blackberries.

Rabbits are super fun too, had those for quite a few years, productive and tasty.

And I hadn't thought about Phillip's book in years, you inspired me to reorder it for a re-read because I do remember it being rather excellent. Dude so has some things figured out! This year I put in hops and my friend has a 100 year old apple tree of a variety that I am still trying to identify and I want to learn how to properly graft some onto my own trees/rootstock.

There's always a project huh lol!
