I'm fortunate to have a place not far from me where they sell used, food-grade barrels. These barrels are from an Italian food company that imports olives into the USA. I've tried metal trash cans and even barrels but they rust being that I live in a heavily wooded (damp) area. These barrels...

Your County Extension Office should be able to give you that information or direct you to a more appropriate agency. Here is a map that may help you locate your state's office. http://npic.orst.edu/pest/countyext.htm

There's a lot happening with your llama at this point in time so as the vet said, you should wait to see if he improves with the worming and glucose supplement. When you said the report was in French, may I assume you live in France or some French speaking country? Only reason I ask is that...

Jules says so.

Thanks for the report. At least you know what you're dealing with and hopefully he will have a full recovery. Yes, miracles happen every day so don't give up hope. Did the vet suggest any improvement in his diet since he is anemic?

Have you consulted your vet and asked their opinion?

I seriously doubt she's trying to kill you, although I don't know you personally. :D Certainly, hormones could be causing this new found attitude or she is vying for a new position in the herd. If she regards you as part of the herd, she doesn't hold you in the top or premium position based...

I'd really like to help you but when it comes to wethers I break every rule ever written as to what is appropriate and what isn't. Someone who feeds by the "rules" should be along shorthly. :)

Miracles happen every day. That being said... Is there the possibility that this is a false pregnancy? While I do not have blind goats, I am going to surmise that everything will go as it should based upon instinct. She will know what to do and will respond accordingly. While she lacks...

Did you get the blood test results?

Of course I'm biased, but all that you are wanting is found in this wonderful breed. Claire gets along with every animal on the farm. She enjoys and respects the goats and alpaca as well as all the poultry. Her friendliness is beyond reproach. She has an intelligence that is frightening...

If it was good enough for Granny Clampett, it should be good enough for you to whip up a nice pot of possum stew!

Awe, com'on! Be adventurous!

Good to hear that a vet was consulted and hopefully you'll have some definite answers when the blood test is completed. Best of luck to you.

I would certainly be concerned if I had an animal that had to be lifted with a tractor to stand and then falls down. Does he lay in his excrement and urine? Also, the female who isn't eating much and lays down a lot would also send up red flags that something is wrong. Have they been seen by...

Congratulations, I know you will enjoy them. They're great looking.

How did you pay for the stand? If you put it on a credit card you have all the leverage you need. Should the vendor not be a stand up company and arrange to send a new one and pick up the damaged one, the credit card company will go to bat for you. Even if you're a "cash sale" kind of...

You can only get BoSe from a licensed veterinarian. I'll save you the trouble of looking.

Do you have a local feed store? If so, ask if they carry it or could order it in for you. Yes, you can purchase it on line, but it is much more cost effective if you can buy it locally and save shipping charges. I get it in 50# bags and I believe I pay between $50-$60 dollars for it...

You most definitely can. Your taste buds will thank you!
