Barb, I'm not sure, but I think that the snake gets into the nest box to rob an egg after the hen has left the box and is most likely elsewhere....
My darling husband's birthday is today, July 24th. He is a treasure--smart, funny, kind, and rather good looking, too. I'm doing everything I...
The Good Day All thread is a wonderful way to start one's morning (or afternoon!). I'm so glad Frank thought of it, and also happy so many Stewies...
Thank you for not killing the snake! They can get through the smallest spaces and are very determined. I hope yours develops a taste for vermin....
How great to have a variety of woodpeckers! Jerry, I am envious. Our suet is basically for the chickadees, occasional finch, and cardinals. A...
It probably depends on how much of the clippings you added. If you half-filled the hole with grass clippings, I'd up the plants and remove the...
Happy Anniversary to two wonderful people!
The milk spray is a fungicide, so it will work on mildews (powdery and downy), smuts, and any fungal disease. Whole milk and powdered milk...

The milk spray (any kind of milk--whole, 2%, powdered) is a 10% milk, 90% water solution. It needs to be sprayed weekly, or after a rain. It is...
Hoping the cast change means she is healing well. We miss her, too!
Happy Birthday!
It looks healthy and happy. Is it still in a pot? I think I see a rim around it. If so, get it into the ground. Also, get rid of the black...
When we uncap the honey frames, there is quite a bit of wax that has been sealing the little octagons. We drain as much honey as we can from the...
KKNg, I just put about 1 cup scratched into the ground around roses, tomato plants (not seedlings, but tomato plants that are at least 1 foot...
This is yet one more good reason to be on the Stew--news that doesn't hit the local papers and media is dispersed by fellow Stewbies! Bunkie, I...
