@oldmountainwoman thier herd is of about 60 of them on 200 acres. His farm was not under quarantine as those pigs where not officially listed as they where for his families consumption only. Asked him to contact pig tracking people about it but not much more I can do without  overstepping the line I set for my own actions.

 

One of our dogs get sick this time of year too I am sure it is from allergic reaction  as they eat green shoots…  carnivore only my butt. One has a sneezing issue with dandylions, she tells us when tike to let bees out is lol We changed dog food to only meat grown on our farm…. they do so much better 5 dogs, we feed them mainly the internals of the ones we process they love the stuff all raw we just freeze to preserve it.  To make it simple we freeze in a packed square 1 foot by 1 foot square 3 feet long use the log splitter to pack it in. It’s lined with a plastic bag then frozen… 3 days later we take apart the frame and use band saw to cut into butter 1 lb brick size chunks which are bagged and stored. Each morning you bring in 5 chunks on sErving tray and let dethaw for dogs evening meal. The only problem is they have their own freezer for dog food lol… I had a guest open that up and ask why we did not butcher paper our stew meat…. and what we added to it that was chewy…… they cooked it thinking it was for humans…… was so hard not to break down crying with laughter,  after that freezer has a  dog face  cartoon on top  with big letters MY FOOD under it.

 

Off to till the garden… and sighting new fencing lines.
