DS1 treated for Coccidiosis the other day and said almost all water had been consumed so turned them all out again. Said he was not dumping water troughs, just adding more water. Hopefully with warnings from Baymule our flock will survive. Still need to pull fecals when I return and start...

Horrible news from Cody (hay tenant and now friend). He lost 5 calves to black headed vultures so far this calving season! Calves born at night are safe but flock of 20 will attack calf and cow during the day. Lots of cattle losses from them in area. Joe Don (cattle grazer on south side of...

OH NO! Just got notice my drivers license is up for renewal in August! :mad: I will have to pay $45 and go to DMV for renewal, take a written test, etc. We wanted to transfer our licenses to TX when we were there but couldn't get an appointment before we had to return to CA. :barnie

Watched the debate last night. Probably shouldn't make any comments about the performance of our current president - just :eek: ! Getting to work today to clear out living room and move packing supplies to Connex. Found the walker, toilet chair (necessary to lever up from toilet), and leg...

I do love mulch. 😍 :lol:

Back to misters - look in rabbit supply catalogs for misters. KW has been around for a long time. There are different types - some screw into nipples that attach to 1/2" PVC. Others are inserted into poly tubing. Yi can connect them to a garden hose. The newer ones put out so little water...

Please, Weldman, move back to Texas to be near all of us - we need you!

:eek: ABSOLUTELY! If the well water is the only source for the house and not disclosed that it was bad, you have a huge lawsuit against the seller. You need to have your lawyer contact them and go back through your disclosure docs to see what they put in about the water. They had to have...

So happy that the fecals came up clean finally. Fall lambing ought to help with parasite control next time. Talked to several southern breeders that said they do not lamb in early spring because of parasite problems. Fall, winter, and summer lambing seem to be ok.

Those Marguerite Henry books were wonderful! I had a set and so does my DIL1. Probably so did every horse mad little girl. I will have to tell DS1 and DH to use the waste hay from our bales in the garden next year. I used to go to the feed store and buy runed alfalfa "cow hay" and peel off...

:lol: :lol: :lol: Thank heaven for kids with technological aptitude! A TV repairman would have charged several hundred dollars to "fix" the batteries!

You don't need to have a cow to register a brand. Call the state and check it out. You can design and register your own brand. My rodeo uncle had a brand for years and years - long after he quit running any cattle. He signed it over to a good cattleman friend before he died. Check it out...

Does the well water eventually run clear if you let it run for an hour or so? We tried that and it worked. Not that I would use it for the house, but for the livestock it was fine where they would not drink it before.

So sorry about another loss. Can you put fans in the barn? Even some cheap Walmart box fans would help.

Probably, but now DH has decided to drive back in DS1's old Ford Explorer with DD2 and Annabel. Then she will meet up with husband so they can look for a rental house in Wylie. A friend of a friend who has an autistic child told DD2 the Wylie school district is good and had support programs for...

Very strange thing happened yesterdy evening. I tried to go on BYH with a post that showed up in my new mail. Instead a page titled "Goatweb.com" came up which then said the page was not available. Ran scans in the computer,I went to another post in new mail and same thing. Went into old mail...

So happy for you and excited about your future training and showing opportunities. :hugs The horses look wonderful and are enjoying their new surroundings.

You are so right to advise to spend money wisely on buying a well-bred dog from a responsible and knowledgeable breeder. Too many people jump at the Craigslist ads that say LGDs because the price is cheap without checking on background. Then they are disappointed and angry when the dog doesn't...

Once they are in school/preschool and have friends it will be better.

That was a really good buy! DH says tell Layne if he wants to turn a profit on it he will give him $45,500! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: We are considering buying a new tractor. Not sure what brand but possibly Kubota. Needs to be one that we can get parts and repairs easily. I think we can...
