He is a male and ready to go.he is 5 now and has been working the fields. I hope he gets here this weekend. Bill

Bob, when do you plan on doing this? I just got Griffon. He should be here next weekend. He is 5. I jot him from an outfitter in Idaho this would be a good chance to take him out. When I was a kid we had an English Pointer and an Irish setter. That was a long time ago. The last 15 years we have...

I am getting a wirehaired pointing griffon from TJ out in Idaho. We can’t wait for him to here. We have been putting in food plots for birds on our farm for the past 6 years or so. We have a good amount of grouse and plan on bringing in some pheasants this year. Bill

Well I did get to the farm this past weekend. We had to put a starter in one of the old trucks on the way down. I spent the weekend working on the driveways; the winter was tuff on the gravel hills. We did a lot of raking with the tractor. The ground is still to wet to work in most places. I...

I will check. We have a few seed suppliers around. I know that the bird seed is a lot cheaper than the food plot seed at the farm store. Bill

Hi Bob, I am looking for a segregator. What are you using and how do you like it? I am just north of rt70 near New Athens. We have 200 acres of mixed land and are surrounded by some 1200 more. I want to try to release some birds. We have some Grouse and Quail that have been around for about six...

Well I am going down to the farm this weekend. I want to start marking out the new plots. I am thinking about planting the sides of the driveway. I have about 10 feet on each side before you get to the brush and thorns. I have about 1500 feet of drive that would be good for planting. I have...

Has any one ever tried to use bird seed to plant a food plot? The seeds that fall out of the feeder at home grow well in the flower beds. I just wonder what the germination rate would be. If it’s better then 75% it may be worth it based on the cost of bird seed over the cost of food plot seed...

We have two Beagles the oldest one came from a good line but is clueless and we just got a pup that has some potential. Where is BeagleBob from? Our farm is near the crossroads of rout 70 and rout 250. Bill

Hello to everyone. Can’t wait for the rain to quit. We want to start getting stuff ready for planting. The dog in the picture is a soft coated Wheaton Terrier. He is supposed to keep rodents off the farm but at best he chases squirrels up the trees. In 6 years he has not learned to look up...

Hello to everyone I live just southeast of Cleveland in Summit County. I was a bird hunter until the early 80s. Five years ago we bought a 200 acre farm in southeast Ohio. 2/3 was reclaimed in the mid 70s the rest is wood lands with a lot of clearing that we have made. We are working on food...
