    Like I mentioned earlier some of your wildlife could be very problematic for any domestic/farm animal be it a chicken, cat, dog, calf, or goat. 'yotes along with fox are great rodent hunters. As for me I've had a cat for a long time (measured in decades).

    I burned some last year and they were very good. We are just curious what this year's batch will look like.

    I know. It's something I will have to deal with so all I can do is the best I can and learn as I go. Lots of farms around here to it can be done.

    Have you noticed if the plats you got are the same light blonde color as in the past, or are they darker in color?

    They appear to be darker in color than the plats I had a couple seasons back.

    You need big signs along your property lines with pics of food & arrows pointing toward other farms....they'll figure it out. ;)
