What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2022]

[motorheadmike]

If you're goal is meat rather than milk, look into hair sheep. My neighbor has raised just about everything over the 60 years he's lived here and says they're hands down the easiest thing there is. No shearing, parasite resistant, weather hearty, gentle on the fences and pasture, and really easy to handle. They lamb with no outside help and usually drop twins or triplets, so you can grow a flock fast and sell the cast-offs for easy profit. As far as livestock go, they're basically set and forget. Hardest thing would be keeping the girls from making them pets.

I'm currently setting up 3 paddocks so I can rotate a small flock. It's been an ongoing project but I'm hoping to be wrapped up by the end of next winter and buying 3 bred ewes in the spring.

That is awesome. Natasha likes the idea.

There are still more in the coop but I only brought one carton out with me.

Yup, that is stage 2. First we establish the garden. Then chickens. Then hopefully a few small livestock animals.

Pulled the transmission out of my s10. It was surprisingly painless. Took me 3 hrs including the time it took to jack the truck up.

The pump still works, but I lost all gears at the same time. I'm guessing the converter went out, but the magnet was full of metal, and there was visible clutch and bearing material in the pan.I'm taking it to the transmission shop Monday afternoon. I've been driving an 06 yukon. It's killing me on gas, I have to her this thing back on the road.

Everything assembled up to the 5/6 Cluster gear. My tool slipped on it and broke a few teeth off. Have to order a new one.

Few choice words, grab a beer and call it stop for the day.
