I raised rabbits a couple times. Easy to take care of, they breed fast, grow fast and you get to use the hide. Had chickens a few time but they can be a pain. You live somewheres warm so it aint so bad, but when you are in the colder regions it is a different ball game, I mean "egg" game.

I'd like to raise a lamb because it is so darn expensive to buy here, but where I am living now the property owner aint having no "livestock", lucky for me he don't mind cats.

Oh.. he minds! But hes a great guy. 73 yo, no way I can outwork him, I've tried. When he seen me loading all 17 cases of empty wine bottles he said he couldn't believe I drank all that wine. I had to explain that indeed I had, just not out of those bottles!! LOL
 
we saw chicks n ducks at TSC yesterday and no matter how much i begged i was not allowed to get em!! i even promised to eat them and not just have pets...but he said id have to butcher it my self and that aint gonna happen.....thats what other people are for!! i got a friend who is from siberia and she knows that stuff so she was gonna be the butcher and i was gonna be the raiser.sounded like a good plan to me right??? **sigh** they were so cute to!!

cute! schmute! they taste good!, fire up a "machorka" and do it, confit duck legs, rare saute' breast with saute' potatos and green salad, the rest is soup!, what are you thinking?, you want to pay for these cute ducky's to have a nice life?, what are you? (self edited!)...........................?

I love my kitty!, but she is a PITA!, wandering across the keypad!, if I had a good recipe!...........Catsup?

We have a four day weekend and I had forgotten, so all my grand plans for today are laying by the wayside. Still I can get some more gardening done. It's sprucing up nicely out there now after it's winter rest.

I realized my new hen has gone broody and am now plotting how to change that. Since easter she may just be jealous that hers are not the only green eggs in the house. Got a crown installed at the dentist and unburied the "office".

Babyproofed the dining & living rooms, put gates up, fenced off the HDTV, plugged the electrical outlets, etc for grandma to start watching our 14 mo. old grandaughter Maya for two days a week. I enjoy seeing her arrive, play with her for a short while then off to work I go. - Have a nice day grandma. Maya will be spending Monday & Tuesday at daycare, Wednesday & Thursday at our house.
