    Heeheheehh. I have does with softening ligaments now that feel very close. I planed to get all my kidding done before the end of Feb to beat the hot and wet and the worst of the coccidia this year. I'm not sure what will be available from this first batch of dwarves though. I do lamanchas and...

    I have some whiting true blue rooster over leghorn, wtb, amerikinda, and wtg hen on my counter waiting to go in the fridge you could try over in Groton, Ma if you wanted to drive that far. They're fairly clean. I think I have at least a dozen. The rooster was blue partridge with barring. Message...

    Phooey, the rack's not visible unless you blow it up really big. Oh well.

    Oh gosh, don't get me started. And turkeys are the mildest of wildlife interference too. DH took this photo while biking on the neighbor's driveway (big hill). He's kind of far away, but you might be able to see it.

    Thanks, I think it comes down to experience. A lot of people haven't had to try to live with these things. I love wildlife, otherwise I wouldn't live out in the woods. I just also love living and having my kids safe! People crying foul at shooting vicious or large predatory animals that come...

    You really shouldn't mess around with mountain lions. Where I grew up it took 10 years to go from "there are no mountain lions here" to sniping them (dead) out of suburban neighborhoods and backyards with little kids. They are not something you should live with. They do not respect people. It's...

    We've had mountain lions in town here too, but fish and wildlife says pictures by joggers and hikers don't count. They want those joggers to bring them a carcass, I guess. We're just about ready to deal with them, so they'd better not hit up my farm or this stay at home mom may be bringing fish...

    I have sworn off ducks, so chickens only. Ducks are too addictive (aducktive?) for me. I don't know a lot of details at this point about testing, only that it's around $4/bird to do the ms/mg testing part here if I remember correctly. Where we came from it was over $300 just to be normal npip...

    Anyone in Massachusetts keep a tested Ms/mg negative flock? Always looking for places to get eggs for hatching projects as a boredom buster.

    I have nigerians-a buck and three does. I'm very excited to have placed a deposit on a Roshasharn buckling as well, so sometime in the next few weeks we will have two bucks and three does and waiting on babies at the end of March. Double excited because I miss milking and of course the milk!

    Hi out there! Moving to Groton, Massachusetts from Michigan with my family and my goats. Just sold off all my chickens for the move and looking forward to putting in a McMurray or maybe Deer Run Farm order and restarting. Not chickening is simply not an option. Hope everyone's having a good year...
