    Pheasants - Cold?

    Is that true? I hear that all the time....have yet to hear from someone that witnessed it or seen a video of it. Often the source will say eggs and chicks. Guess I have never search for a vid...might now.

    Love Kid Rock's Hat!!!

    Those fellas have some funny bits I see on FB. They kind of hit home. KR seams to be somewhat on the conservative side, fits into the midwest well.

    Future of CRP ?

    Get the paperwork in for cost share asap! I hope Musky doesn't spend too much time reviewing the ag programs.

    Pheasants - Cold?

    That is how they get the kernels from standing corn...the biggest reason I started planting grain sorghum, was that it is so much easier for them to get to it (a lot less energy needed to try to get it).

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    You need to make your way over for a day trip this season. Taking the corn in, I didn't see more than 2 dozen on any of the 3 times I have been in there since Saturday. I am guessing the with the bit of snow we have now and the cold temps, there are even more than during season....guessing...

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    Hustled home last night and checked out the corn. There was still a little in all the locations, I put 5 gallons more in all 5 spots, that should get them thought is last coming night of double digits below zero temps. I still have about 25 gallons left, half a barrel. The forecast for next...

    Pheasants - Cold?

    As long as they have food and good thermal cover. They are tougher than you can imagine.

    You don't run a camera

    Dog soap, shampoo?

    I will get torched for this. I seldom wash my GSP, had to twice this season as he rolled in the remains for a long dead deer. I use baby shampoo, so I don't have to be quite so careful on his face. Don't need the fragrance, as I don't want to interfer with smelling birds. I see no ill...

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    Checked the feeding sites just now, to see if the birds had found them....well, I think they did. I put out the remainder of the first barrel.

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    Don't have a good mower, an old 5 footer, not sure it would last for almost 6 acres. Just a old light-weight disk...will try to add a few hundred pounds to it this year and see if it helps to cut and bury the trash.

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    A cover crop wouldn't be too practical if you are leaving the primary crop in the field for the winter....but you are thinking like a farmer! Been debating about going back to corn, as what our PF chapter gets is Round-Up ready. The grain sorghum is just so much easier for the birds to get to...

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    Most of the larger cedars (left side of the bigger trees) were planted in 2007. the larger ones on the left of the group (3 rows) are Austrian Pines. You can see some smaller trees to the right, those a mix of conifer, start most of those in 2017, there are coming pretty good now. I must do...

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    Well, the sorghum plot looked cleaned out, imagine they all are. I put out around 30 gallons of corn. Pulled back the snow in 5 different places in the plums. Back in the cedars, I threw another 5 two gallon buckets, under 5 different trees in that inside row of the shelter belt (in the 5th...

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    Have only seen one bobcat in my life, have some coyotes, don't see much for feral cats here. Raptors would be my guess to be the biggest predator to the pheasants here....well, behind me.

    Cold temps and feeding the birds

    -I will try to take a few pics when I check things out this weekend. -Feeding in the hedgerow, will provide raptor protection. -My plan is if there isn't substantial snow under the wild plums, to throw the corn into those...if there is substantial snow, more piles under those plums. The snow...
