    About the act of breeding

    I'm curious about this practice. I hope you will educate me. Are they unable to breed before that age? Or will they yield poorer kits at that age? I was under a possible misunderstanding that once the testicles dropped, they were ready. Please lend me your knowledge.

    About the act of breeding

    Thank you. Both those descriptions help a whole lot. Can i ask you another newbie question about testicles? It's so hard to keep these questions PG. :hide I've been waiting, of course, for my buck's (Oliver's) testicles to drop. I've seen them, but then when i pick him up, it's like they've...

    About the act of breeding

    I'm a newbie at this, so please bare with me. I thought that my Cali/Fl Giant buck might be ready to breed, so this morning, i put one of my NZ does in with him. Bare with me because i've never actually witnessed a successful breeding before, so i don't really know what i'm looking for. I've...

    When my dog delivers puppies.....

    I think i'm about to seem really stupid. Why is it going to stink so bad after the puppies are born and put in a new clean surface? Are they going to pee everywhere?

    When my dog delivers puppies.....

    Thanks! It's good to hear encouraging expectations. I was able to squeeze one of her teets today and get a little bit of white stuff, so i'm hoping that means she'll be o.k. on the nursing front. They're huge and hanging, poor thing. And i've gotten pretty good at getting 'intimate' with my...

    When my dog delivers puppies.....

    Jelly is a mutt, who surprised me when she went into heat before i got her fixed. Did i mention i know nothing about dogs? She is a mix of German Shepherd, Collie, and Lab. She is bred to a dog of similar size to her. I don't know the breed, but he is solid red all over. I stupidly did not...

    Raising Rabbits for Meat

    I'm not jenlyn, but my aunt canned rabbit meant, and when i asked i was told that you can it raw. It kind of ends up being cooked rabbit meat because of the canning process, but you don't have to cook it before you can it. Incidentally, really good stuff. Every time we went to her house when...

    Any info on "mini" milk cows would be great!

    I don't have any YET, but my husband has been researching dutifully on the matter of mini cows, and he has come to the conclusion that we would like to have Dexters. They are, from what i understand, naturally small (by that i mean, they don't carry a dwarf gene like some mini-cows). They have...
