Keystone State Thread

Nice shot.

 

Good morning fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians!! Gorgeous day yesterday, looks like another today.

Yesterday's excitement was getting a new TV to replace the failing 52". Just had room to squeeze in a 60". Set up was fairly easy for this old retiree.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!!

 

Not a lot of traffic at 0400 on a holiday sunday..

 

My kind of beach experience No People !! But those with you.

 

Good morning PA Folks.
Upstate at our place and went to the neighbors annual Labor Day corn roast. Can't even think about an ear of corn this morning.

 

Pm sent

 

nice, figured you knew what you were doing

I’ll probably PM you in the winter ask some questions, newbie to this farm game

 

Morning Pennsylvania

 

No problem. But we are learning as we go too. Really enjoying it thus far.

 

I should clarify my previous statement. Goats aren’t really a guardian animal in the traditional sense I suppose. I just meant that having larger animals around your chickens can discourage hawks.

I’ve also been told that black chickens will keep hawks at bay as well. Supposedly hawks hate crows.

Alpacas are used as guardians agains fox and domestic dogs. But, if you live in an area with larger predators, suck as wolves, a Llama will guard against those.

Apparently, they will stomp them, and cut them with a “claw” that they have on their hooves. I don’t know the appropriate term.

So we will most likely end up with a few goats and alpacas and one Llama.

 

Open or closed? And how much?

 

Not sure about the black chickens, but llamas and other animals are used for livestock protection.

Work project update:

SNAFU.

 

@Armyhater458 Hey Mike took your advise and ordered two Doghouses today. Can't beat the price! Planning on setting one up for my Dad (82 years young). Trying to get him down out of his ladder stand. Not quite his self lately, slowing down more than usual. Trying my best to take care of him. But anyhow, thanks again! https://www.ameristep.com/browse/ground-blinds/spring-steel-blinds/doghouse

 

My kind of party right there!

 

Oops I sort of forgot this !!

It was an idea when I cut the frame horns off I always put a weld nut in there.

Then most times I am attaching bumpers made for another manufacture or custom bumper so custom brackets I use every possible point to bolt things

 

So I got these stock rims that I need to get rid of. I’m tried to sell them at a local rim shop that restores and resells rims , unfortunately for me they have 3 sets already . The tires are shot pretty much shot , they do have center caps and have tpms sensors but I’m not sure if they are bad . So you’d either have to refinish , plastidip or run them the way they are






sorry for some reason they are turned 90 . So I dunno if I should take them to the scrap yard , I figure the center caps gotta be worth at least something ?

 

Good morning and Happy Labor Day fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians!!! Enjoy the day!!!

 

What size??
