The poo of course! You gotta do poohs when you're a pullet and you have to grow up to become a layer...
Bridge: I'm wondering if that dog pic isn't a bit of a put up? We should ask the vet. But also disturbing is that it may be putting the idea into the head of sickos out there.Comment

Agree re tyres. I've used them on slopes to calm water flow, and for spuds, but the cons far outweigh the pros. Also great place for snakes to snuggle if they are part empty. And yep, they can leach heavy metals into the earth, but if you're worried, just paint them with good acrylic or gloss enamel.tawnyfrog;1246085 wrote: Ella - I think your fear is more than likely to be the result of your binge and will abate with each passing AF day.
Saucy - as requested, my views on car tyre gardening.
Pros: Recycling of readily available material. Tick.
Cons: Fuskugly. Depending on where they came from and how old they are, I believe that some brake drum linings made prior to about '86-'87 contained asbestos. Also, the amount of top-soil/potting mix required to fill said tyres is vast and a lot of it is 'wasted' in the channel(?) of the tyre. Also, being black it would be like growing stuff in black plastic pots. With your climate I don't believe you would need added heat.
The one exception I would make is ... I think they're great for growing spuds as you can keep adding height as the little praties grow and nestle into the channel.
My views only; the others may totally disagree. My preferred method was the "no-dig" method and I had access to good railway sleepers which I used as retaining walls. As I also have no topsoil to speak of, this system allowed for veggies to grow in minimal pockets of soil/potting mix.

I still have childhood memories of coming home to open the fridge and finding a tongue lolling around in there ready for mum and dad to make into something tasty...and it was good if you didnt think about what it was...KTAB;1246393 wrote: Hi Rags, hahaha @ poo on eggs, jeez hope he never sees a cow licking its rear end.

Yeah I hear yis on the Eco concerns, I did think that myself when they were building it. Froglett you are right about the asbestos use on brake pads btw too. I still think that for an Eco house straw bale is hard to beat. When I built a few years back it was timber frame but still has a block exterior and deep cement foundations and we all know what a pollutant that is. I do have lots of insulation and use wood pellets as heating which are brilliant and eco neutral plus the ashes from the bolier just go into the garden, so that's good.Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?Comment
