@pattycarr28@PeggiBosquez it’s good to show the good AND the bad, imo. Farming and homesteading isn’t easy, and good stewards show both sides of that coin. People are super disconnected from their food chain nowadays, so this helps create those discussions that help shorten that gap
@Casleigh777@PeggiBosquez From someone who has to go “egg fishing” on the regular: a citrus fruit picker basket works wonders and they’re typically on a telescopic pole! Or, if they’re not too far in, one of those tennis ball throwers for dogs will scoop them up!
@morgan181525@PeggiBosquez Unfortunately on such a small farm, money and space are where we get our permission from. We can do our absolute best and still end up having to make the hard decisions like this because we have to take ALL of our responsibility into consideration. Its a hard balance
@That1Chief@PeggiBosquez She was supposed to have been bred when she got her (from very poor conditions), and has been with a well proven bull for the two years she’s had her. Peggi knows milk production doesn’t just happen
@lorrainecri1954@PeggiBosquez Can you explain this further? Because farmers know full well what a processing date means. Processing isn’t something negative, it’s a reality with this way of life.
@morgan181525@PeggiBosquez Because people will be asking where Pistol Annie is at and why she hasn’t posted her in a while. She’s being upfront and honest in her hard decision she’s having to make for her farm. It’s not drama, it’s farm life 🤷🏼♀️
@PeggiBosquez I’m going to keep all the Isabel’s back so I’m sure there’s gonna be a rooster in those (the paler colored ones) so we can just pick the sweetest biggest one from those before we process! My newest genetics for my lavender Orpingtons are pretty dang big, too.
