Are yu planning to milk these goats or are they pets? If milkers you will need more equipment for milking chores. If pets, jst the basics are all you need.

Talked to the well guy today (the driller not the fitration guy. The well guy said that we are definitey sitting on the Carrizo aqufer. He said that if he drills and doesn;t hit water we dont have to pay. He also said that with a new pump and lines that we would not have the problem with the...

I am lucky that I can kneel and crawl on both my replaced knees BUT my other knee that was replaced in '22 is getting weak! I asked my ortho for PT on it as well.

Probably not allwing livestock - only gardening for sals or home use. Livestock may be too hard on the sidewalls or since it woud be a green huse, would be too hot inside.

Fiance's mothers should be required by law to disclose stuff like that to prospective DILs! Pyrs are like that. We had a male Pyr would leave the property after dark and innocently be back in the yard the next morning. We had no idea until he was hit by a car a mie awy and the police that...

DS1 moved a new hay bale into the lambs' pen today. Then he counted how many hay bales we have left. We have over 50 round bales. I will probably have to buy more before the winter is over although we still have some pasture left. Cody said he had put up a lot of hay but I probably should...

I like that idea. 000 DS1 got the rear mount hay spear for the blue tractor and hooked it up yesterday. Today he moved a bale for the lambs. He said it takes some maneuvering to get the bale off the spear and tipped from the side to stand upright, but he can make it work. Hay spear $350 -...

I wonder what sizes Amazon carries in children's straight jackets . . . ? ;)

DS1 removd Patton from the ewes today. He has been with them for about 8 weeks. Hopefully they are all bred. In a month we will harness Junior and run him in with the ewes with a red crayon as a catch up ram. When DS1 put Patton back wth the rams, he smelled so like the ewes that both...

Getting rams used to being handled s a good thing. Over handling like pets might not be so good in certain rams. Our rams get used to being pulled out to be bred and by the time they are several years old are very docile to handle. Our newest ram is not so used to handling. I think we will...

If you are looking to make cheese, volume of milk is necessary. Full size dairy goats will give you that. Higher cream value (NDs?) is not necessary for most cheese.

Shame that he won't let go of them. They are using him for a father figure for their kids but without any return for him. :mad:😢

Erick doesn't vaccinate for CDT. A clostridium bloom with no vaccinations would certainly be a problem. Had trouble getting on BYH and had to change my password. I had run a scan on the computers for viruses and malware. DH's computer had malware problems. It took 3 days for his comuter to...

What color will that bitch puppy turn ut to be? She is considerably darker that her brother.

Tennessee Walking Horse Association has required DNA for many years. There was a cutoff date to submit DNA after which you could no longer DNA type a horse. Probem wth DNA is that if a breeder is unethical they can lie on the DNA forms. If you are having problems wth the NDs' registrations I...

Tags are a pain. I tag our sheep woth colored tags relating to which ram sired them. Unfortunately I forgot to number the tags differently which means that several lambs have the same number just different colors. Now I have to register the lambs with a letter referring to their tag color.

DH's computer is infected with malware again. DS1 talked me through running a virus scan. Apparently, Kapersky no longer is available and has switched to another protection app. All the viruses hit DH's computer on the date and time the switchover occurred. Another crazy thing happened - no...

That tear doesn't look like a bite wound. Looks like a puncture and tear from a stationary piece of metal or somethiing The depth of that injury there should have been a matching fang mark/tear within 3-4" of that wound. Looks time like more of a unctire and ter from metal or something...

DH heard this morning that they are sendg the shis from the eastern ports around to the western ports to unload. Good idea but the dockworkers here have said that they will not unload them - they will be on a sympathy strike. I still have a lot of stuff I bought for the Covid shortages - but I...
