I will. I know what's been in the area, so I'm not too worried about that, but I really don't like that cats I take care of were killed in my front yard.
It is, but for some reason, we've always had problems with them not coming to our area. I tried to get them to come out several years ago when a bunch of dogs killed 3 of my chickens. They said they were sending someone and they never showed up. Last year my neighbor tried to call on our mutual...
I don't have a trap big enough. Mine are sized for squirrel and rabbit. The kittens are a month old at most. They're just starting to get their legs under them good. There's another litter close in age that I put the one I found with. Mama didn't care that she had an extra kitten. The pups, I...
@Sally Sunshine Yikes! That's awful!
Good afternoon, folks! Well, maybe not good. This morning was bad. No change in the lone egg. It's taking its dear, sweet time. I woke up to a dead cat and one of her kittens. Found one still alive and in hiding. One is still missing. This was one of many...
Well, the chicks have been moved to the brooder (the two with the open navels are doing great, so I'm confident they'll be fine in the brooder) and the last 3 eggs have been checked. Two were DIS, but one is still hanging in there and wiggling around. I may yet get a fourth CCL.
ETA: PLEASE let...
Morning MC!
I second this. Going to be interesting seeing how my 'neighbor' handles the appearance of his filly's Wolf Teeth. He's a self-proclaimed horse expert that doesn't seem to know as much as he thinks he does.
:frow Morning Sally!
Ok, so not as long as I was thinking. I have 3 more eggs to go. Hopefully one will hatch that doesn't have a problem so it can keep Chick #1 company in the brooder.
@Sally Sunshine I lost your quote! As soon as Blu gives me the go ahead I'm ordering some Brahmas. His color choice, of course...
How long does it take for an open navel to heal? Chick #2 and the Malposition both needed some triple antibiotic (I'm cheap and it works, no painkiller as per the usual) but I don't know how long it takes for them to heal. They're hanging out in a bowl for now.
I use olive oil on leather jackets, but the leather on a bridle or saddle are definitely thicker. I think I've seen coconut oil fairly cheap at Walmart, so I'll have to check if the conditioner is too expensive. I have to drop off some young roosters at the feed store today, so that works out...
Well, nevermind. It doesn't look like I'll ever be going back to the tack shop. They never had a website, but I found their fb page. Looks like they closed down in late 2012. :(
I do. I just have a really hard time finding it around here. Coconut oil might end up being a good option. If I can get out in the next few days I'm going to see if I can find it and price actual leather conditioner while I'm at it. I don't get out to the tack shop often (haven't been in past 5...
