Being overrun with broodys I know exactly what it's like to disturb one, but I think they're so cute anyways!
I'm about to set 2 clutches for my 2 broodies. I actually have 3, but there is only 2 nest boxes, so can't have any more. 
I installed a temporary extra nest box today and cleaned the coop and run. Added some fun plants in the chicken's run and cleaned the goat yard. Yesterday I had a terrible headache. Now I'm listening to 80's music and shopping on the TSC site. Speaking of that, It's official, I'm a usual at the feed store! At TSC it's goat feed and chicken feed and cartons. At the feed store it's lime and fly spray and hay. I also love to meet all those farmers in my area at TSC. Who knew? I live in a rural small town area, but I didn't know I had so many local friendly farmers around the corner! I think there's more cattle and horses then sheep and goats, but I'm happy to meet friendly people who are willing to help me! One Man is on local Ag boards (also helped found a local Ag showing group) and offers hoof grooming, ultra sounds, and much more! I'm so happy to find professional good people around the corner! Speaking of rural, behind my house and in front of me are fields and a few blocks down, there is a field of horses and cattle! Plus, one of my neighbor owns a horse. It's really nice.... So I think I'll switch to 70's and finish contemplating the idea of going into meat rabbits. No relative or good friend of mine would dream of me doing MEAT livestock. I'm just not that type of person, but I'm still thinking about it. As impossible as it seems, I might try some meat rabbits. If I could find some place to put them... but I would not do the butchering. Not yet. There is plenty of people who can do it for me in my area, even my good friend who raises meat rabbits could do it for me, but It would take some observing first before I did it myself. I've never even eaten rabbit before, so I don't even know if I'd like it! 
Yay! Keep us posted!SmallFarmGirl said:Goopy milky white stuff coming from betty!

Don't worry, it's been an ongoing thing. Is she, is she not?HankTheTank said:This might sound really dumb, but is she bred?? How did I miss this?!SmallFarmGirl said:Goopy milky white stuff coming from betty!
Told you it would sound dumb
I prefer that to undercooked. Been through that before and do not like it. It is nature, and I can't do anything except have the vet's number on speed dial along with a new (everything in it) kidding kit. Let's pray all goes well!
