    Will a goat be happy enough with dogs for company

    Theres a young goat at the pound and we are thinking about adopting it.

    They look atleast 6 days old from looking at other photos online. Their eyes are closed. Would a pet shop or vet take them on?

    Wild Rat Litter

    Well what do you suggest I do to the rat pups? And it's not that we want them in our coop we just don't have the heart to kill them. We used to own pet rats so I guess we are quite soft and i myself along with half of our family are vegetarian/vegan :/

    Wild Rat Litter

    A few nights ago we discovered a litter of about 4 baby rats in our chicken coop as the mother was screeching quite loudly so we lifted a tile to find out what was making the noise. Last night our regular visitor a diamond python was lying across the tile and when it moved into the corner of the...

    Pullet food for 6 week old chicks?

    How long can an egg be left in the nest before its not edible

    We were planning on having chicks so left the eggs with the chickens for about a week until there was at least 21 eggs in the nest box though there is no sign of broodiness in the hens.

    We have had our hens for nearly a year now, two were given to us and two were rescued including our rooster. One of the light Sussex that was given to us has been stretching her neck and making a loud "TOCK" sound and shaking her head whenever she eats the layer mash, ever since we had her. I...
