Someone told me that she looked like she had Arab in her due to the size and shape of her head. I'm not really sure if she's gaited, as I said I'm a novice to horses. When I'm out with Journey this evening I'll watch her for a while and see if I can tell.

I got her last October so have had her for 6 months or so. She did look like a baby when I got her and was told that she was only a yearling but upon further research I have been able to figure out she was about 2 1/2 instead. Looking at her picture then and now she almost looks like a different...

Any guesses as to what my little mare is? I think she is part Arabian but I have very little horse experience. She is on the smaller side, the last time I measured her she was 12.2hh. I got her in October when she was hardly more than a bag of bones and was ate up with rain rot and sunburnt. She...

Now that I think about it, that does make sense lol. I have been very confused by this doe because I want to take her on a 'date' to be bred with a Nigerian buck but I'm not sure if she is pregnant. I get no hints from either of my boys. According to her girlie parts she is either not pregnant...

The only reason I tried is because my month old Alpine mix doe got a hold of her and was trying to nurse. The doe stood there and the doe kid seemed to be getting something so I took her away and that's when I saw the fluid. I wouldn't have messed with her if it wasn't for that. She has gotten...

I have noticed that my Nigerian mix doe appeared to be developing a small udder. She isn't filling up but feels more fleshy and loose where her udder should be (if that makes sense). I was able to get a slighty tinted, almost clear fluid out of one side. She is a first freshener. If she is...

Today the swelling is almost completely gone, only a little under her jaw is left... it seems that the swelling went down the same way it came up, first on the face and then working it's way down. It doesn't seem as tender to the touch either. This is exactly what happened with me... I would...

Location: South Georgia (close to GA/FL line) Goats raised: 6 Nigerian Dwarf (all mixes), 1 Nubian, 1 Oberhasli I have only had these goats since the beginning of March, so this has been what I'm doing so far... For the past 4 years I raised a few Boers and did things totally different...

Well I have Nigerians/mixes, a Nubian and an Oberhasli. I bought a bag of this feed to try and they seem to eat much less of it, but are satisfied throughout the day, if that makes sense. I've tried Noble Goat, Dumor Goat, Dumor Mare and Foal, and of course the generic "All-Stock" feeds... and...

I have been reading this thread and I have a question, if you don't mind me asking. What is the maximum percentage of fat (from a pelleted feed) that you would feed to your goats? I have been looking at this feed, even though it's for horses, and there is a min of 10% fat... so is this too much...

My goats, chickens and ducks get along fine. The only issue I ever had is trying to keep the goats away from the chicken food... so at dinner time and pretty much for the entire day my goats are separated from the birds. The all sleep together at night though, the chickens love to curl up next...

I did check her FAMACHA when I was doubting a sting and as far as I can tell, it's pretty close to the 'acceptable' color. The experience I've had with bottle jaw is that it's onset isn't so quick. I hate it that she got stung, especially because I am trying to sell her and prevent any future...

I went outside earlier around 3 and noticed that my ND x doe was swollen in between her jaw and eye... not a whole lot though. Within an hour and a half, it had spread all under that side of her jaw. I gave her a benadryl but it hasn't seemed to help at all. She acts like it itches a lot and is...

I have for sale a purebred Nubian buckling. He is not registered. Max is a very beautiful tri-color with frosting. I am asking $125 obo or may consider trades. He was born 2/17/2011. Max does have horns due to improper disbudding, but is a very sweet boy.

I am selling Annie, she is out of Woodhaven Farms Rand McNally and an unregistered Saanen/Nigerian mix doe. Annie is not registered due to her having airplane ears, but she has a wonderful body and should produce awesome kids when bred with a Nigerian buck. Her birthdate is 2/23/11. I am asking...

Thanks everyone for all of the support! This goat (which now has the name Ophelia) is wild as well. I built a small pen for her because she was teaming up with my very wild Nigerian mix and they both were running rampant. I can now pet her a little on the nose, I milk her daily and I have been...

I got my Nigerian/possibly Alpine or something mix doeling 10 days ago. She was born on the 8th, so tomorrow she will be 3 weeks old. Her horns have still not grown in (her mom is polled) but she does have horn buds. I have kept a close eye on them but they are the same size as when I got her...

I am looking for a buck that will not get very big. My girls are all Nigerian/mixes at the moment. I will also consider trading my nice Nubian buckling for one, but I ask that it be a nice Nigerian buckling in return. Being registered is of no concern, I am not looking for show stock. I may also...

She is walking better today, almost totally flat on the bottom of her hooves instead of on the sides like before. I think with a little time she will be almost normal. The splay is not as noticeable so I am also hoping that it won't be permanent. For a FF (and half-wild) she is a good milker and...

Since I am to my max on the number of dogs I want (which is 1 silly Min. Pin. who eats chickens), I have a bronze turkey named Lord Voldemort as my livestock guardian. People think I am crazy when I tell them that he is great at keeping the hawks away. I saw one sitting on the fence checking out...
