    Yes, not too cold or hot... just lots of rain! I think he'll be real happy otherwise! Question for you... he's 2 weeks and 1 day... I just increased his milk to 5 - 5 1/2 oz every 4 hours... Should he be eating more? Or can I increase him to 6 or 7 and go every 5 hours? He just seems hungry...

    Thank you for the warm welcome! We're considering another, just a bit older than Dex. I am bottle feeding him, and have some questions... is there a good bottle feeding thread you know of that I might take a look at? He's getting castrated in a couple weeks... I heard the boys can be pretty...

    Getting the hang of the "thread" thing... I hope you saw my earlier post in response to the "Hello"'s! Thank you for the warm welcome! Where can I post pictures? Also... is there a good thread regarding poisonous plants? We have a few plants on the property that I've read are toxic to...

    Thank you all for the congratulations! We're thrilled to have him! I'm working on a companion, but I think we'll get a bottle baby that's already weaned. Dex is still inside with us. I worry so much about his health... maybe I'm reading too much online I do have a lot of questions as you can...
