    I wish they could just talk to me.

    When I was younger (a bazillion years ago) and any of our livestock would act like that, I would sit down in the barn and be still. Sometimes I would make a little bed of straw and lay down. Several times I would wake up in the middle of the night and wonder where I was. My sister and I would...

    Grow out pen help

    How wide are the rows in your garden? I'm picturing a tractor 18" to 24" wide and that isn't a lot of space.

    Young buck not eating

    No change in pellets. But I have increased the alfalfa hay slightly to one small hand-full a day from one small hand-full every other day. And also increased the apple tree leaves and branches to one 8"-10" branch w/leaves a day.

Our livestock consists of two cows, 10 +/- chickens, six rabbits, eight beehives, and what farm would be without dogs and cats.

    Does sunlight affect our bunnies?

    Our outdoor hutches are getting old and rickety. I built a 22' x 8' lean-to shed along one wall of our woodshed/barn last year and part of it is now the new chicken coop. I'm considering building new rabbit coops inside the other half of the lean-to shed. Since the new coops will be sorta...
