Simple smoked ham hock and beans in a Dutch oven. Cook it around 260° for about 4 hours. This is enough to last me about a week, and I paid just over $20 for the ingredients. 🤠

Little Odette here has been having a rough first week of life, but I'm happy to say she's doing better! Energetic and finally putting a little weight on. Here's hoping she catches up to her sisters. 🤠

I put this roost up late last year and was hoping for some good tips on how to attract new bats.

I know it can take months or even years for them to choose a new roost, so any tips on how to make this one more appealing while I wait would be greatly appreciated!
