It's a woodmaster 4400. I think the outside dimensions are something like 5'W X 6' L It has a 48" Firebox and 2ft door. It's a hog on wood but, wood heat is warm and CHEAP!

jakegsp

Just split a batch of bigger stuff last night. I have an outdoor wood burner so I go through alot of wood.

I really enjoy cutting it though.

Off the topic of Wisconsin but deals with the wolves. Saw it on another forum. Feds ask to put wolves back on endangered list BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) - Federal wildlife officials have asked a judge to put gray wolves in the Northern Rockies back on the endangered species list - a sharp reversal from th...

Not sure what the issue is with the Sport Dog bark collar. I have six of them and a buddy has ten of them. They have worked great for us for the past year and a half. I only put mine on when I don't want the dogs barking, otherwise I'm in the country and don't care. My dogs are several hundred yards...

I just bought a Pro 100 G2 with 3 collars. I cant wait to get it and try it out. You will really like it. I've never had a problem gettting to the center position. The only time I could see a possible problem is if you have thick winter gloves on but then any of the positions might be a little toug...

jakegsp

Wow!........That should work. Great Job!

jakegsp

I really like the head crank. It's stylish. To each their own I guess. CG, that little female came out of the box with a head crank and awesome tail! I have a littermate brother to her that is stylish but nothing like she is.

jakegsp

Don't worry about it if your not planning on breeding him or showing him. It will have no effect on the way he finds birds. After reading the other posts I should have put to make sure and check to see how bad it is. As long as it isn't to bad I wouldn't worry about it. Good Luck.

jakegsp

Do you have a recipe for the Sulfa bath K9?

jakegsp

I sell them new for $564
Shipping to MO is going to run you around $75. If he's only used it once I would go for it.

jakegsp

LOL! Leave the bobs down for at least two weeks and then let them free fly. You want unflown pigeons, the younger the better. If they have flown out of the previous loft they are likely to try and go back to that loft. As far as the male/female, I don't know for sure. I've been told that the ones do...

jakegsp

Do you know how old the birds are? I would try leaving them in the coop for a little longer than two weeks before opening the door and letting them free fly. I usually leave the bobs up for awhile until they get use to going in and out. Then each day lower another bob to the point you have all the b...

An Excellent rating takes three things: 1) A dog with superior hips 2) A good set of films 3) OFA radiologists in a good mood. OFA will rate ANY set of films, no matter how poorly they were done or how poorly the dog was positioned. That could keep you from getting an accurate rating. Also - it's s...

I just sold a 2 year old male to a guy that is having problems with him marking in the house. This dog was always kenneled and never allowed in the house before he was bought. I do know that the guy had a male before so that is probably part of the problem.

jakegsp

I feed a mixture of Purina Pigeon Checkers and corn. I'm going to probably start doing mostly corn now though. Just picked up a bag of checkers the other day and it was $15.

Exactly! My idea of range is probably different than the next guys and visa versa.

jakegsp

[quote]with drive? no, with range? depends on who you talk to.

Sorry about that, didn't mean bird drive I meant range.

jakegsp

I have two of them now that are mainly black. I really like the color however it is harder to find the black ones with the run in them that I like. Luckily the two I have now have pretty good run in them. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v396/baggin_bucks/Sophie1.jpg [/img] http://img.photobucket.c...

jakegsp

Told to me by a very successful competitor/trainer..., that when you run multiple times in a weekend, in whatever format, the dog benefits from training as early in the following week as you can manage. Rationale: The more that we run in the excitement of trials/tests and the more that little thing...

two of my buds use 24x24 pavers they get at lowes as a base, it works pretty good except there are cracks that need to be filled in every once in a while. but they say its a lot cheaper than pouring concrete. just that you have to dig up the ground and level it yourself with a tamper. also you need...

jakegsp

I started out by pouring a 16x36 foot slab with a 3" drop towards the drain and installed a gutter system. Then had a masonry company come in and put up cement block walls 3 blocks high creating six 6x12 runs. On top of the concrete blocks I put 2x8's to cap off the cement blocks and to support the ...

jakegsp

I did basically the same thing as Stoneface's link. I used a 55 gal plastic drum as well. I scoop the solids and hose down the rest works great. My whole system is completely buried. Since I scoop the solids I don't worry to much about having to clean it out. The only thing I can see in the future i...

jakegsp

I would go for it. Accidents happen. Looks to me like hips have been tested in past generations, which doesn't guarantee that yours are going to be good but greatly helps the odds. Proven dogs in both peds. Alot of people are breeding on less terms than what you have (proven sire, dam, hips oked and...

Yawallac,
What is Jazzie out of? nice looking pup. I've got a year old pup out of Cash that is an absolute blast. Only long tail in my kennel, he sure is fun to watch on the ground.

jakegsp

Next time around I'll try the 1/10th per 20# and see what happens.

Thanks,

jakegsp

Don't have a clue on the setter,

Where are you getting these old pics from? are there any websites that have pics of all the old timers?

jakegsp

I won't be changing from Ivomec, I was just curious if anyone else has had any of the same effects possibly coming from it. I don't mind the loose stools once in a while that is just part of dogs.

jakegsp

To me , it looked like signs of hook worms, and right after the worming., his appetite picked up considerably. Thye are all due for Ivomec in a week. I keep close watch . I thought it looked like they had worms as well. I know they don't though because I took samples in the first time it was lookin...

jakegsp

1/10th cc per 10 lbs.

jakegsp

For anyone using Ivomec, do you see a difference in the dogs stools for a couple of days after you give the monthly dose ? I don't know if it's coincidence or if it's something to do with the Ivomec but two of my dogs get loose stools and a little bit of blood or redish tint to their stools each mon...

jakegsp

how about tonight or tomorrow night 6/25 - 6/26 10:00 CST ?

I agree it's a great feature that doesn't get used enough.

jakegsp

I attended this seminar and highly recommend if it's ever in your area to attend it. They do a stand up job.

that 4th pic is really neat!

You could put some type of fencing around the coop so the dog can't actually get close enough to get to the pigeons. Mines not in my backyard but is fairly close to the kennels. Some of the dogs don't bother it, some do. I'm planning on putting a small fence around it so I don't have to worry about ...

Check out the buy,sell trade section. I just saw a set in there this morning for sale.

jakegsp

birdshot, I cut a hole in the upper corner of the dog house just big enough for the cord to fit through then take a porcealin light bulb socket and screw it to the inside of the sleeping area and put a 40-60 watt regular light bulb in it. Then use the shield off of a shop light (trouble light) to co...

jakegsp

If anyone of the breeders treats you like that go somewhere else. Everyone has to start sometime and there are to many good guys that will be more than willing to "take you by the hand" and help you pick the pup that should fit your needs. Good Luck.

jakegsp

I sell Owen's boxes. I sold one of the DIY's to a younger kid and he and his dad finished it. It is a great box and he is very pleased with it. He went with it because of price. Being out of the elements in the back of your truck I don't see why it wouldn't last you forever. Good Luck.

jakegsp

what kind of vehicle buckeye? Is it still in the original factory warranty?

jakegsp

Wow! They must have really wanted to sell that truck.

jakegsp

Greg,
What tier of employee pricing are you eligible for through Ford?

(ex. X plan, D plan, A plan)

jakegsp

All car salesmen are crooked SOBs and I really don't know how they look at themselves in the mirror each morning.

All is a pretty big word Virgil.

I've been thinking about something along this idea. I don't know what the run time on batteries would be but I like the ice pack idea.
