Peace, Love, and Preparedness
[popunder-popup id=”1″] I was exchanging emails with what has turned out to be my latest advertiser, CampingSurvival.com. While finishing a reply, I signed off in my typical fashion, “Peace, db”, and laughed to myself about how much of a hippie I sound like. Not that it is a bad thing, but I am a far […]

Mailbag May 2, 2013 Quail vs Ducks or Chickens
Yesterday, I received a comment from a regular reader, Darren from Green Change. com, and I thought I should expand on my reasoning. “Just a quick comment to thank you for all your quail articles. I didn’t think quail were worth messing about with (small eggs and little fiddly bodies for meat!), but you’ve managed […]

Day two in Quail Week in celebration of finally getting my quail setup mostly organized, and at least moving forward.
