    Coffee anyone ?

    Carson is a good sport. At first he's gotta be all "did someone say BREEDING?" and then "aw, man, this is just a fashion show!"

    Tribute to Latestarter

    I cannot express the depth of my sorrow over this tremendous loss. Latestarter was my first friend on BYH, as for many others, I'm sure, since he became an official greeter. He was always quick to respond to any appeal with wit, wisdom, and warmth. He was a genuine person. Never did he try...

    White Muscle Disease? 4/5 month buckling

    I am heartbroken to hear of Latestarter's passing, and will post to his tribute page (even though, of course, he would have said a tribute was silly). Hauk (Norse for hawk) is doing very much the same. I'm thinking maybe we stopped the selenium problem, also called Nutritional Muscular...

    HELP! Kit stuck inside birth canal

    I was just telling my DD that at nearly 58, I'm considering going back to school to become a vet for the simple reason that there are never any vets around here (crazy, since we're such a big Ag state) who do goats, or most other "farm animals". The few that are around (an hour or so away, mind...

    White Muscle Disease? 4/5 month buckling

    Hello, all. I haven't been around for a long time. Wouldn't you know, I show-up with a problem. DD Kimmy and I adopted a 1/2 Nigie buckling from a city-girl from NJ living in the "boonies" of South Carolina. He was about 3(?) or so months old when we got him almost 2 months ago. We wormed...

    Pig has been down for a month.

    The only thing I know about pigs is they grow into fine foods. That said, I think this one would be much better off if you put her out of her (and your) misery. Really sorry this happened. :(

    Bees are tough to raise

    Over the winter I intend to give serious thought to starting bees next year. @Latestarter , I hope I can count on you for bee-keeping advice. My elder DS told me recently that due to the over-reaction of DHEC last year with regard to killing insects in SC, more thank 50% of SC's bee population...

    Changing goals and speed

    Adorable goats, beautiful baby! You certainly have your hands full. Med transcription seems to be a rapidly growing field. One of my sisters did it for several years; but I don't think she does anymore. It's definitely great for working from home. All 3 of my kids walked around 9 or 10...

    One Fine Acre - 2023 4H Steer Project Update

    Those boys certainly are beautiful. I love blonds and strawberry blonds (goats, that is;)). DH has nearly black curly locks-my fave in men! Their new owner is very fortunate! I look forward to seeing you sweep those shows at the NC state fair! Your girls are definitely a force to be reckoned...

    As a Christian, I am a little ashamed leaving a status update that sounds so dismal. So sorry, friends. I have not forgotten WHOSE I am. :)

    Well...depression has been winning a lot lately. We lost BOTH of our Nigie babies this summer, and $$ are at a 20 year low, but we press on.

    Hurricane Harvey

    I have not been on BYH in quite some time, but had to see how my dear herding friends in Texas, etc have weathered the storm. I pray you have all come through this well, @Baymule, @Devonviolet , @Latestarter , and others in the area. Now with Irma bearing down on us, I pray, also for those of...

    FergusonK's journal - Goodbye Java Jewel.

    I haven't seen many calico tabbies, but she is lovely...and in true cat fashion, I'm sure she knows it! I agree with Babsy. You should keep her. Of course, we rescue cats, and invariably they turn out to be pregnant. We are currently at a 4 year low, we have only 20 cats. ONLY--:lol::lol: I...
