Why don’t you go to the freezer. Maybe, let her get a good pet life instead of killing her.

How bad is culling? Im 16 have a red rex buck i show through 4H, ive been vegetarian since 13 but open to eating stuff i raise, found the perfect doe and im thinking of buying her and selling the show qualities and then processing the culls

It’s not terrible I use the broom stick method anything that makes it fast, painless, and clean is good. You might not like it at first but do it a few times and you will get used to it. Just stick to knowing that the process is letting you and your family eat something that you know is healthy and had a good life! Nothing you can do for yourself is better than anything in the store!

Nice video. We have a similar creek crossing. Our creek goes from bone dry to 8 feet deep during heavy rains. I widened the channel as you have to slow the current down. Having said that with the amount of water born debris evident in your video it will continue to work its magic and want to clog things up. Additionally depending on the velocity of the current it may tend to scour the creek bed along with the stone you put in. It looks like you have plenty of large stones there. You may consider having your contractor pull the 1-1/2 inch back and then dump a quantity of cement block size rocks in the creek bed and along the sides as riprap. He can imbed the larger rocks in the creek bed and then use the smaller stuff to fill in the voids to smooth out the crossing. Its how the romans did it.

That’s how ours is we are lucky if there’s even water 300 days out of the year. We might eventually put a couple 12 inch pipes and concrete over that but for now we are gonna keep it how it is. It has done great with almost an inch of rain. Very little water coming through and no rock has washed and my little neon still makes it haha
