Nope, sorry,don't have a Henry milker. Maybe look at the Hoegger's catalog.

Garden is started: potatoes, onions, carrots, celery. For flowers I've got marigolds, morning glories and cardinal flowers.

Also trying to find an oriole feeder. Most stores I've been to say they are a seasonal item and are all out. First time seeing orioles hanging out around here.

just get some oranges, cut it in half and set it out. Orioles love oranges. Thats what we feed ours and we have about 4 pair that eat them.

Ok... I'll stop in here, too...

West Michigan... Just slightly north of Grand Rapids... on our our 7 acres of paradise...

Can it ever stop raining?

I have 5 goats (2 Alpine wethers, 3 ND does - one due at the end of June for babies!!!!), 6 chickens (2 Buff O's, 2 Speckled Sussex, 1 SL Wyandotte, and 1 EE), 1 Great Pyrenees, and soon have 1 Miniature Horse (just as soon as the transportation is settled).

Hello, everyone!!!!

I'm on the east side of the state so we are drier. I was in the UP this weekend and from Sat. afternoon to Sunday afternoon it was nice and dry and sunny.

Hey all! I'm new here, just got back into Rabbits. I was on BYC for the last couple of years until I moved and then coons and minks got my chickens before I could transport them I'm in Mid-Michigan (Lansing area) I'm mom to three Polish Rabbits (A brood doe (Broken black), a breeding buck(Black) and a show doe(Black) and one three year old (life gets crazy to say the least!) I'm going to attempt to start a rabbitry and see how that goes.

How's everyone handling the heat and rain this year?

I hate it. I actually miss winter.

This heat is tuff. My garden is all but dead. Ive been watering tomatoes Just to keep them going. I wish the rain would have been spread out over the whole summer. My pigs are doing pretty good though.

is anyone here interested in helping me when my husband and I go away for our anniversary? I am looking for someone to milk my two nubians. My father in law said he will take care of the chickens and rabbits. Our anniversary is in Nov (getting an early start) plus we want to go to Chicago to visit some friends in a few weeks (only for two days)

pm me if you can help out. All the milk is yours to keep when you milk for me. lol

we live in Newaygo by the Croton Dam
