Question, and being an antique
[email protected]
Hi,
Years ago, while reading the Little House series, my daugher asked me - Mom,
did they have seat belts when you were little? Oh, no, she stopped herself,
you rode in those covered wagon things.
Connie, who is old, but not THAT old!!
Also, while driving to the beach yesterday the kids were deciding what kind
of lists to make for their book of totally useless lists --- when they got
off on another topic that I said I would ask about here, since I know there
are some people from England on this list.
If in England, french fries are chips, what are chips called, and if cookies
are crackers, what are crackers called?
This is for the English to English list!!
Thanks,
C

I know our chips are their "crisps," and our cookies are their biscuits. Our
biscuits are their scones (SORT of--scones are better than our biscuits).
Our does-not-exist are their crackers. Crackers are tissue-wrapped breakaway
tube things you pull open at Christmas and parties and little toys come out
and a paper crown, and there's a tiny charge of something explosive so it
pops ("cracks").
I don't know what they call what we call crackers (soda biscuits maybe?)

Not a great answer, since it caused me not to ask my grandmothers, and one of
them had moved from Texas to New Mexico in a covered wagon, and my
grandfather on the other side had come from somewhere SE (northern Alabama?)
to Oklahoma and then Texas the same way.
My mom SHOULD have said, "No, but my dad did."
And I never asked my dad's mom. I found out years later. She was still
alive. But it would have been cool, when I was little, to have heard her
stories of moving when SHE was little.

In my town we have the George Washington Carver
national monument and every year they have a covered
wagon ride available the second weekend in september
plus cover wagon races. Once you ride in a covered
wagon you will understand why it took so long for
them to get anywhere. 30 minutes in a covered wagon
will give most people a severe headache/neckache from
all the bouncing around. It is very very hot inside
the covered wagon so most people who were able would
walk next to the wagon most of the time. We have
friendly Amish people around here who provide the
wagons and the horses.

For those that don't know, I'm a recent transplant from the suburbs to the
country. And I mean country! Our little community doesn't make most maps and
has only fruit stands, orchards, and a little Baptist Church.
Anyway, I was typing away online last week, and the kids came running in
saying there was a wagon train out front. Sure enough, coming up the highway
were 5 covered wagons and about 15 people on horseback. So, my kids, not
having an inhibited bone in their body, ran to the property line. The wagon
train pulled over in the grove of trees just on the other side of the fence.
Well, with my kids down there meeting strangers (city tendencies kicking in
for me), I decided, "Ok, I'll get dressed and see what's going on." Sad but
true, it was nearly noon. <gg> Now, I have not mastered the ability to
easily climb a barbed wire fence, so I hopped in the van and drove around to
where they all were. It was the annual 5 day trail ride that preceded the
Red River Rodeo. OF COURSE! We were clueless, asking a million questions.
They were very nice. Invited the kids to sign up to do it with them next
year. Told us all about the parade the next day and who to watch for in the
rodeo. The Trail Boss was a younger woman who admitted that she didn't
sleep on the trail but went home to see that her daughter got to Summer
School. Ugh. Anyway, I smiled politely so as not to anger the locals. <g>
All in all, it was a very cool thing to see. And, yes, I think Ron, Alyssa
and Michael may join them next year. Katie and I will wave to them from the
porch, sipping our coffee and mochas!

Legs is coming along fine. He is drinking his goat
formula every 4 hours, round the clock, but more at
night as it is too hot in the day. We have a fan
blowing though a window that opens onto his area. He
has poop like a human baby, almost the same scent.
Easy enough to clean up, just pick up the soiled
portion of hay.
But fleas are a problem. I put some dog flea stuff on
him, and I had used a thick coating on borax under the
hay on the "deer porch" but it is pretty bad already.
I can't see them on Legs, but as I feed him, I can see
them hopping onto me.
Any ideas?
I have now read up on deer and it seems that male deer
who have been bottle fed and bonded with humans become
very dangerous during in rut. It is recommend that
they be castrated or slaughtered BEFORE that time.
All the experts say they won't hurt you, they will
kill you. That is all we need, a dangerous animal
with horns :-(
I talked with an (anonymous) vet....they get in
trouble even giving advice....and found the goat
substitute way up it Georgia (none within 50 miles of
here). How odd. Lots of goats around.
DH has a friend who raises deer....that is where his
are coming from when he's is really ready....and
thinks he can take Legs there when he is a little
older.....but I'm afraid that this person will have to
kill him.
Bottle fed by humans bucks don't make good pets, when
they reach rut age. They can't be turned out to a
domestic herd either, as they can't be herded...they
always go the wrong way...and they still will kill
humans when in rut.
Still wonder why DH brought Legs home. He is a lot of
work to take care of and then have to kill. It is just
too sad.

Have you talked to or read articles from many people
who have raised orphan deer? People (mostly vets
and conservation agents and animal rehabilitators have
told me that none of my animals would ever be good as
pets or be able to go back to the wild. I realise my
animals were all of the small variety but the only
problem any of my animals ever caused was that one of
the raccoons I raised once broke into a house by
ripping the screen out of the door and went in and
opened the freezer side of the fridge and ate all the
ice cream they had, and left. (meanwhile the family
was calling the police from the bedroom reporting a
burglar) This was a couple of years after the raccoon
had been released into the wild and the only reason
anyone thought it was Mandy was that she was always
breaking into our house and getting icecream out of
our freezer when we had her. The squirrel I raised
this spring and recently released already met and
joined a squirrel family around here which everyone
said wasn;t possible. Anyway sometimes animals dont
act like everyone says they will. Or you could start
looking up and contacting zoos and find out if any
will take an orphaned deer I had to do that with a
male iguana that bit the end of my husbands finger off
because the iguana thought I was his female and
decided to challenge my male.

Sounds like you'd be doing this animal a favor by giving him to a wild
life specialist who will raise him appropriately, either for a zoo or to
be returned to the wild. .

Hi Sharon,
I've been told that diatomaceous earth, available at any pool supply store,
is great to get rid of anything with an exoskeleton. To us it is a soft
powder but to insects it is like walking through shards of glass. I've
bought my bag but haven't got it spread around yet.

Hi Sharon,
We have used Lamb replacer with good success with our goats. It may be
easier to find. There is also a good supply place
www.hoeggersupplycompany.com that may be able to get some to you.
