curly dock (Rumex crispus) water experiment on horse, donkey, llama
Well I almost thought I had a win, win, win situation, until I fully
lived through it. I thought the livestock would eliminate mowing, would fertilize the grounds, would keep me entertained. But I never thought to the stage in which weeds would enter the picture. Curly Dock. I guess they smell it and never eat it. Anyway, what used to be grass lawn has become this ugly weed. So I moved the animals to allow me time to eradicate the weed. So I think the answer is constant steady rotation of pasture. By the way, the llama and donkey got loose and the donkey took off like a jet rocket down the road as fast as possible. I suppose he liked a taste of absolute freedom. He turned around and charged the other way for I was holding a fig-newton cookie for him. What I am trying to work out is a living arrangement for people with homes and livestock as a common occurrence as a source of food and as a taking care of a lawn of generous size. It is a waste of a lot of energy to just mow grass for so much land. Something like miniature cows or miniature horses would be ideal for lawns of a few acres. There is some damage to young trees since they like to rub so much, so the landscaping has to be mature.

Now I wonder if geese eat curly dock? So that I may have to include
geese into my menagerie of animals. Archimedes Plutonium www.iw.net/~a_plutonium whole entire Universe is just one big atom where dots of the electron-dot-cloud are galaxies |
