Sounds like you've had bad experiences with meezers. The vast majority are not angry, scratchy cats. Every Siamese I've met has been loving, noisy though. There are bad eggs within every breed, but. breed traits for Siamese include being affectionate and vocal. Any cat that isn't well socialized...

I may be visiting Milwaukee mid October, but that is not written in stone. Plus, I wouldn't be able to keep them at the hotel I am staying at there, so they'd need to be delivered on the way! Is someone making black walnut fountain dip pen ink?! It is so rare to see dip pens or fountain pens...

Does anyone in North Eastern Wisconsin want some Turkey poults? I got some from Porter's Rare Heritage Turkeys. The minimum order was 15, I don't need that many! Sadly I lost a few due to the stress of shipping, but the rest are little troopers, ready to take on the world! I have six turkey...

The problem with fighting back is many schools have a zero tolerance policy. Both kids are suspended or expelled for fighting. Some kids (like me when I was in elementary and high school) followed rules to the letter. It is easy to say "beat the snot out of the other kid" but some kids don't...

They can do just fine on that diet. Just add in some loose goat minerals, fed free choice, and they should thrive. I have growing, pregnant, and lactating goats, so feeding grain is necessary. But to a wether, buck, or doe who is fully grown and not pregnant or lactating, they are fine without...

Your lamb could not eat feed or loose minerals meant for goats. Goats have a much higher nutritional need for copper. The levels a goat needs will give a sheep copper toxicity. On the flip side, if a goat is fed sheep feed, then the goat will become deficient in copper. So if you can keep them...

The cost is very reasonable for an unregistered goat! If you just want pets, any boys would be best wethered. Unaltered boys, once they reach sexual maturity, can be stanky little lads! My Nigerian Dwarf buck reeks during that time of the year, he's a sweetie, though. I actually have a little...

I kinda gave up on electric fencing with my Nigerian Dwarves. They were willing to take the powerful shock in order to get to the greenery on the other side of the fence. They'd literally SCREAM as they pushed through the fence, but once they were out, it was totally worth it to them! I found...

Be prepared to fall in love with the goaties! They're like dogs with hooves. I started with two...now I'm up to four! I know my bottle girls would happily live in the house, but that is a bit too far for me, hah!

It all depends on their genetics! You can get some interesting surprises. If you want to get your mind blown, here is a great page on chicken color genetics. It can be rather confusing at first!

The condition those horses are in is beyond horrifying. How can someone believe that it is acceptable? Hoping they get the care they deserve, and soon.

Haha, very glad to know Yoopers are welcome! It just seems like the UP is an extension of WI most of the time! Especially since I lived in Milwaukee for a few years and still have plenty of friends down there. Mxmarg, Esky is definitely a happening place! Very touristy in the summer, but full...

Would a Yooper Interloper be welcome in the Cheeseheads thread? I know sometimes I feel MUCH closer to Wisconsin than I do the rest of Michigan, haha!

Would anyone in northern WI, near da UP, be interested in a pair of large fowl Araucana hens? They are lavender colored, and just started laying. I have decided that even though I ADORE the lavender color, I'd rather not focus on lavenders since I don't have a black Araucana male. And my splash...

Oh, for anyone interested in Northern WI, I have four Easter Egger chicks up for grabs, about a week and a half old now. Looks like some of the 'araucanas' I hatched are muffed and bearded! Thankfully some of the others in the hatch (from other breeders) came out tufted and rumpless. None of the...

Quote: They are the real deal, purebred araucanas. Eggs bought from breeders who have rumpless, tufted chickens that lay sky blue eggs!

Any Cheeseheads in Northern WI want some purebred araucanas? I may soon have too many purebred araucanas than I have room for! I just hatched fourteen, seven of which were tufted, which made me go But I kinda thought I would have a bad hatch since I had to discard quite a few eggs during...
