    Nature Hobbies?

    Does anyone here love nature in general? I occasionally like to sit out on the property and observe nature. Birds, squirrels, bugs, anything. I noticed there is quite a bloom of milkweed lately, and that's good habitat for Monarch butterflies and their caterpillars. I made a video of them:

    Goat Shaman's Goats and other Critters

    New little guy. I traded Periwinkle's skittish daughter for this little buckling. I have another buckling that I wanted to use for breeding my does, but he's related to some of them so I might sell him and keep this guy. His name is Bilbo.

    New to Beekeeping

    I have a squirrel nest box that bees have taken over last year, and they're still there. They're totally welcome, but I'd like them to move to this bee box I bought. I'm pretty sure I don't know what I'm doing, so please watch the video I made about it, and tell me if I'm doing anything wrong...

    I got a teat dip cup thingy for my goats, but I don't know how to use it. There's no instructions, not even online that I can find. It's an Ambic Non-return DipCup. It doesn't make sense that the cup doesn't seem connected to the bottle beneath it, which looks like it should be. Do I poke a...

    I know I'm a latecomer to this post, but the youngest buck I had was 5 months old when he bred. I now have a 6 week buckling who was trying to court his paternal grandma!

    I bet buck milk would be icky. If a buck with udders was wethered, would that make his milk any better?

    How small is too small?

    I have Nigerian dwarfs, and my buck who I'm selling soon weighs about 40 lbs. His sister, I think is between 25-30 pounds. They may be cute at this size, but is this healthy? They are both over a year old. Attached are the doe Idima and the buck Kylem.
