I tend to follow people that follow me, or whose content I found interesting at some point. As long as they continue to be interesting and don't annoy or disgust me (even if they don't follow me) I'll keep following. I'm not a very good steward of my follow list 😆 -

I'd say yeah. I played though it back on the day, and it was an interesting enough story, and the game was pretty fun. -

Ah, tried EU3 myself... just could take the time to wrap my head around it. Seems like fun if I can justify the time sink learning it -

Ah, just jumped back into Total War: Medieval II/Stainless Steel myself. Great game. -

Hrm... I suppose I could engineer the soil to better compensate for my incompetence. 😆 -

Ah, I have no luck with succulents. I always end up overwatering and killing them, without fail. -

Nicely done. This is where we're at as well. We just take the plastic to a recycling center nearby on a regular basis (we don't have trash service anymore).
And your chickens will help even more with that food waste soon 😄 -

Oh, wow... I have now learned there are round zuchinni. That is freakin' awesome. I will have to look for those next year. -

That looks like a damn vine borer got into it. Bury further up the plant so it's covered in soil and it may recover. -

A couple of things you can do on the potatoes:
Make sure they're in light to enhance the sprouting process
Cut them into pieces that have 2-3 eyes per piece. This will give you more to seed from and focus the growth for the potato -

Yeah, that was (and still sort of is) me. I hate processing our meat birds. It's not the plucking or gutting or anything, I do that no problem. It's the killing part. I blame society (and to some extent my parents) for making me weak. But I still do it because it's part of nature and I know I need to get over it and be stronger.
But it still sucks. -

Yeah, it's a blessing and a curse. They like to go broody, which means they're great at hatching new birds. The only problem is they don't lay when they're broody...
Also, if you're going to be hatching your own, make sure you have a plan for roos.
More than one and they're just useless weight that will fight, over hump your hens, and generally be a pain in the ass. So be prepared to deal with them. -

Of course! Good luck and have fun them. Chickens are just really great to have. -

So you will need something to keep them in (a brooder). This can be a simple plastic tub, some pet/farm stores sell little walls you can put up to keep them in area, you can build a simple wood structure, whatever works for you.
You'll need bedding. We use yellow pine chips, but you can use newspaper or straw bedding.
Of course you'll need a watered and a feeder as well as chick feed.
The most important part is going to be a heat lamp and something to securely hang it in. New chicks are very susceptible to the cold and it can kill them quickly.
That's about it. Keep in mind that whatever you put them in will eventually need a top as they'll outgrow it and start jumping out well before they're ready to go outside 😆.
Keep them warm, fed, and watered, and play with them alot so they become familiar with you.
