How To Raise Chickens For Meat

Tip Sheet Credibility: 60

submitted by The Marketing Guy 2009-09-05 10:26:10 pm


Get some organic wheat, and soak the daily serving in fresh water, rainwater if possible. Soak for 12-24 hrs, as if you were sprouting them. Rinse and feed to the chickens. Sprouted wheat has 6x the vitamin & enzyme value of dry grain. Makes tastier meat.

If you think of buying a home abroad, then think twice! It might even be a good idea to rent a house for 6-12 months before you buy your own - If you rent you will get to know the area, and find *the* house even at a better price

Of course the most obvious way to keep warm is by using an alternate source of heat such as a space heater. If the electric is out and you have a gas stove, boil pots of water on the stove. This will create some humidity and heat in the house.

Garden fertilizers for organics

Tip Sheet Credibility: 50

submitted by eco-warrior 2009-09-22 07:51:31 am


Heavy doses of liquid fertilizer from those tank trucks that dope up lawns for greenness soak down into water tables and do great damage. "Greenlawn" trucks should be banned or made to use less harmful chemicals. PLUS they STINK up whole neighborhoods!

Popcorn ceiling texture has fallen out of favor, since it is prone to problems like particle sifting and collecting dirt and cobwebs. Before you remove it, get it tested. Pre-80's popcorn often contained asbestos.

Do you have allergies? Well, consider changing to cork floors; suberin, a natural occurring waxy substance in cork is hypo-allergenic and resists dander, dust, mold and mildew. Using cork flooring can help anyone who is devastated during allergy season.
