I was weighing out the milk. I set a pitcher with a ziploc freezer bag inside on the scale and zero it out. The I pour in 3 lbs of milk. When I pulled the bag out of the picture the bag burst and Splat! I had milk all over the floor. What a mess to clean up. I can't smell yet so I hope that I cleaned up real good. I think that spoiled goat milk would be a bad thing.
The goat lady also wants to learn to make soap. She wanted to buy 50lbs of lye off me. I did a barter with her instead. 50lbs of lye for 35 gallons of goat milk.
I call this picture " Yuck" You would think that the worms would be a tasty treat for birds but I don't see birds eat them. Maybe they are too gooey and bitter.
The two ways I combat tent worms are as follows:
ReplyDeleteHave a nice campfire going, cut the infected limb clean off, and burn the whole works.

Take a propane torch to the mess. You will of course kill the branches that are affected, but you'll take care of the mess that was there. And don't burn the forest down, ok?
You should torn those worms!
ReplyDeleteToo bad you spilled the milk. I thought the goat lady was also the soap lady?
goat lady, soap lady, chicken lady - so what kind of lady are you? Crazy dog lady?
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a rabid cow foamed the branches. YUCK
Maybe your head cold is making you not function right (split milk)! Sorry you had that accident. It's all trial and error, next time you'll be more careful.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting low on soap so I hope you get this all figured out soon!!!!
Oh no! On having the milk spill...uggg, am sure that was a mess!
ReplyDeleteBut good for you for working out that barter, that sounds really good.
We were on a road trip today....someday I would love to go for a tour and see Amish farms. I think it would be really interesting to spend a day with an Amish family
