I noticed recently that a box of MREs in our feed room has been untouched by rodents despite the ravenous way they chew through the animal feed containers. The MREs were issued to my husband when he was in the USMC. I have no clue why we still have them but it certainly caught my attention. Only the best for our service members, right? Semper fi!
EDIT: since I have been getting so many comments on other platforms that they just can’t smell through the packaging, I want to add that they eat through boxes in our barn that have no food inside them, this includes camping gear, Styrofoam, towels, fertilizer. You name it.
If you ate that stuff, or you’re just looking for a nutritional boost, grab the fermented cod liver/butter oil from https://www.greenpasture.org/ for gut repair. It has helped me with a lot, not the least of which has been going from chronic cavities to quick and easy dental exams. LINK IN BIO. Use promo code “ALISON” for 10% off!
Maisy and Mommy Cow were separated all summer at their respective bull camps. We re-introduced them over the weekend. It did not go exactly as we had planned. But everybody is OK!
We hope they’re both pregnant and we’ll have cute calves this Spring. Speaking of pregnancy, vitamins A, D & K are essential and that’s why, as an older mom, I have made the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil part of my daily routine. I used to battle chronic cavities but no more. You get 10% off at checkout with promo code “ALISON”. https://greenpasture.org/
I don’t recommend Cheerios for breakfast but I definitely recommend staying clear of the green ones!
Nutrition is key when wrangling male goats, which I why my daily routine includes the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts to keep my bones, teeth and brain healthy! Use promo code “ALISON” for 10% off. https://greenpasture.org/
Our mini Jersey cross, Maisy, is back home after love camp all summer with a mini Jersey bull. Huge thank you to @thewagonfarm for taking such good care of Maisy and allowing us to use their bull’s….services. They made a cute couple but all good things come to an end. After 2 unsuccessful artificial insemination attempts, we decided it was time to try the real deal. We don’t know if she is pregnant - we will likely blood test her in the near future. We are hoping someday Maisy will be our family milk cow.
Speaking of pregnancy, nutrition is key when you’re an older mama like me (I had my kids at 38 & 41) - and Maisy! (She is almost 5! That’s old for cows.) I have been taking the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts for 15 years. It saved my teeth from chronic cavities and is a great source of vitamins A, D & K.
