Do NOT squeeze milk out. That's a good way to encourage her to continue making milk which invite mastitis and other issues. Have the vet come and check. It is impossible to tell if an animal if pregnant via pictures, unless there are feet poking out of the vulva.

That is NOT a snapping turtle. It is a Stenothernus oderus, aka Common Stinkpot Turtle. They are my favorite species and I bred them for some years.

There ARE mouse shows ;) I used to breed mice and rats for both feeders and show. I developed a shimmering long haired mouse. Pretty awesome.

Personally, I'd stay far away. Any Friesian stallion being used to create these crosses is not a good enough stallion to BE a Friesian stallion, for the most part. People buy them cheap and then cross them on all manner of horses, anything with a working uterus, and sell the foals as "sport...

Why? Because he is polled? (Naturally hornless) This isn't a problem. Just refrain from breeding him to another polled doe, just to be safe. His umbilical cord has nothing to do with fertility. I suggest you do much more research before you begin breeding goats, to do it right is...

Whole milk is perfectly fine. In fact, I would advise AGAINST replacer, ever. Kids just don't do as well on it as they can do on whole cow's milk.

If they stay DRY and out of the WIND, they will be fine. It's when they get wet and blasted by drafts is when you have problems. A good rule of thumb is to kneel in the bedding of your shelter - do your knees get wet? Then it's too damp. Either put down more bedding or clean it out and put...

.....I caught a Holly!!!! I can't believe it! I decided to stalk to AP to see if anyone dumped any Nebula eggs. I missed a couple Nebulas, then a holly popped up under my mouse and CLICK.. I almost died of shock! I'm so happy! I'll have to fog it before bed...can't risk too many views! FROM...

Quote: I think it will be a different one this year. I actually hope so. Would be fun.

Yeah I rather like my wreath. It's purty. I wonder if any of us will get lucky enough to win a "CB" Tinsel?

I've been offering mine on another forum (since this one isn't as active as it once was right now) but the thirty minute window makes it tough. Probably just end up dumping all of em. Not like there's any lack of them in the AP, that's for sure. I think the Hollies are neat, but yes, ugly...

Quote: no luck here either If we keep trying, one of us is BOUND to get lucky, right? LOL.

Been at the AP since breeding started...seen and missed three sets of Hollies. Which I guess is an improvement from last year, didn't see ANY Hollies at all. Got to take a break...will try again later.
