    Hawks?

    I had to look up an answer to your question and this is what I found from a falconer/rehabilitator... The Red Tailed Hawk can carry, for short distances, a maximum weight of 1.75 pounds. This is also unusual as they tend to kill and eat their prey on the spot and rarely carry it away. The...

    Bose rx vs selenium/e gel

    I'll start this by saying that I do have the script BoSe. I use it infrequently and with discretion. Personally, I would recommend the gel over this product if you are unfamiliar with the consequences of overdosing with the injectable. While I've not used the gel, I'm going to assume that a...

    Quick question about feeding

    Are you asking if he should get more food? Yes. Just like everything that lives and breathes, his needs are individualized and he may be a bigger eater than what you might be accustomed. Having a satisfied animal is not a terrible thing.

    Abundance of violets??

    Rebbetzin, that is so true! Unfortunately, Sen Sen is from a world of time-gone-by that only a few of us will remember. And yes, it tasted worse than soap!

    Sprouting Barley Question

    In the basement. It's heated and you need to have a warm environment for the seeds to germinate. I imagine a heat lamp could work as well.

    Sprouting Barley Question

    I sprout grains, mostly wheat, oats, millet and corn. Just never had access to barley, which by the way, your price is very good for barley. I've included this link to give you an idea of what's involved. My method is similar to theirs with some minor changes. Once the grains are soaked, and...

    Guess what DH said?

    Eight to ten goats in a 25' x 40' enclosure? To my way of thinking that would only be modestly sufficient for the three you already have.

    Question about possibly pregnant doe?

    I will start out by saying that she does not look pregnant to me, but that's my opinion going from the pictures you posted. Obviously, she could be and not showing at this point in time. You don't mention how far along you think she might be in the pregnancy. If you want a true verification of...

    goats fence and collars

    I use Martingale collars for my goats. They've had the same collar for years. I like them because they can't over tighten due to the way you adjust them.

    Hoof abcess on new buck?

    A very simple, effective and cost effective solution for soaking is bleach and water. One part bleach to twenty parts water. (as per my vet) It will treat a multitude of problems.

    This is Goldie the nubian

    As has been mentioned, start with a clean slate...have a fecal done to see if you are battling parasites, which will undoubtedly cause a goat to remain thin and not gain weight. Shredded beet pulp is an excellent food for bulking up a goat. It comes plain as well as mixed with molasses. If...

    If this was successful, should have a cria by Christmas 2013

    Thank you. Actually, they had more than those two goats watching. The other goats were standing a bit farther away from the camera lens range, so they didn't get into the picture. Honestly, I was surprised that they didn't interfere with the breeding as it lasted for about 30 minutes.
