A very Quick update
Everyone spoken too agrees that she probably pissed of some hunter at the back of our property where it meets about 100 acres. Police have neighboring property owners names in order to ask about any hunting leases but some are owned by large companies and we are not...
We moved the goats and horses today ( donkey refused to load of course), brought two of my 4 Pyrenees to the house to be with the goat flock. bff and I stayed for a couple hours to watch everyone settle in and finish the bird yard before we bring over the flock.
Everyone is staying close and...
Thank you all for your help!
Moving animals Sunday and Monday and hope to be sleeping there by Monday or Tuesday.
Worming the herd tomorrow and then again in 10 days. Two lgds going with the goat herd and two going over with the flock. Crossing our fingers that the coyote problem there is not...
Worming should be done the day they move or the day before?
The plan is to temporarily cross fence a small section so that they do not gorge on the grass, trees, ect that we do not have here. They are dry lotted currently in order to let the grass grow on the 5 acres before we leave...
I have been scouring the internet for a couple hours trying to find out how many days pre- move should I worm the goats (and horses?). I know I have seen that information on byh before but can't find it now!
We are moving from 5 acres to twenty acres approximately an hour up the road and I do...
Ooh what about Blue Kote? Sticks on forever. I use it on my chickens and quail because it hides the red colour from the flies and other picking poultry

Obviously the title says it all but this lady I I am buying geese from is selling her mini silkie (sp?) herd Very cheap because she is dealing with a domestic issue.
These are not my goats but the lady seems honest enough and the animals seem well cared for. I cannot remember the name of the...
He is just angry like a toddler is angry when you make him go to bed. He doesn't have the understanding or tools in his box to know even why he is angry yetand what he should be doing about it.
I would stay away from popping him in the butt, you are just asking to be kicked. Once he learns...
Is he attacking or just being mouthy? I found that weanling donks are way mouthier than any foal I ever met. It is a natural way for them.to explore their environment and boundaries too. If you would like to know how I corrected my baby donkey without doing physical or emotional damage just...
It will not hurt to re pinch but I usually wait 6 weeks before I see a big difference. I also always try to grab a picture because some do not shrink as much as others or take a lot longer. Did you clamp one cord at a time? If so, then you probably got both and it is just not noticeable yet...
