Day 29

Make duck confit and rillettes, of course.

  1. That is horrible that they killed just for fun as it seems. The poor guy with his head under his wing, what a horrible way to go. Sounds like you need a farm dog to keep the others at bay.

  2. Goats! Ditch the piggies, get two goats. They’re awesome watch-animals. In the meantime, enjoy the bounty.

    really nat? i want to get goats–but how would they stop a dog? i’m working on starting a goat collective in the east bay–where someone provides the space, and a group of people rotate days to get them fed and watered and milked.

  4. Well r.e. goats versus dogs, no, I don’t think they have a chance. Unless you get those big goats, which might be a pain in the ass. I’ve got fences to control rogue dogs, but I need goats to control rogue raccoons.

    A goat collective would be nice, but you only need two to party. Can’t you squeeze two large ungulates into your lots somewhere? (Preferably next to the chickens/ducks/geese and away from the veggies.)

    I’m going to do some more research into goats and will drop you an email when I get more info.
