    Uhoh. Abandoned serama chick.

    Unless you're in Southern Indiana, I'm no help. I got these eggs shipped to me from a BYCer several years ago, and just kept them going on my own.

    Thanks, Flock. I have a cat carrier with a mesh top that may work a bit better - we have cats. Good idea. I'm HOPING that someone goes broody in the next couple of days, and I can slip her in, but only one of the serama's ever goes broody. I have an isolation cage out in the barn that we use for...

    Uhoh. Abandoned serama chick.

    Forgive any errors- typing one handed while cuddling a teaspoon sized chick. One of our seramas laid eggs up in the loft somewhere, and we didn't realize it. One of the big girls went up and sat on them, hatching out two. One was malformed, and the other fell out of the loft. My husband found...

    Help with Acidosis in Goat

    One of our goats got in to the chicken food yesterday.. not really sure how much he ate, but he did get into it. Today he obviously has a stomach ache, diarrhea, and is moving like he doesn't feel so hot. We're waiting on a call from the vet now, but what kind of treatment is normally done for...

    Soap process question..

    i've got a batch in the fridge now, so we shall see. It's a COMPLETELY bungled batch. Forgot the castor oil, didn't get the colour right, all that because hubbs was trying to help and spilled an ENTIRE BOTTLE of Blue Mix LabColor on the counter So yeah, we'll see what happens.

    Soap process question..

    Really? I thought that it needed weeks for it to be safe? Or is that just for it to harden?

    Soap process question..

    I got "Soap and Other Obsessions" yesterday, and I'm on the goat milk chapter. Has anyone tested this? I believe her, but i just can't see how it's possible. Stir the oils as you slowly add the milk/lye solution. From here on it is just the same as you would do any of your soap recipes. Only...

    Who has BEES?

    Redhen- Dappled shade. Wintertime sun is good. Love the pictures! Can you take a couple more of your top bars? I was thinking of going with those, but don't know much about them.

    Who has BEES?

    Good points and suggestions ya'll. As far as TOO MUCH info, pick up a simple book- I have 3, and it seems to be enough for now. Beekeeping for Dummies, Backyard Beekeeper, and A Book Of Bees. Yes, there's a lot of info, but at the same time there's a lot to know (I think). I don't think you need...
