    Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

    Hi Oz! I'm coming out from the land of lurkdom to congratulate you on breaking the buckling streak! Mama probably has enough milk for them right now as demand from newborns isn't very high. That's a good thing because it helps assure they all get a dose of colostrum. However, things...

    Sorry about the little fella. It wasn't a good scenario to begin with. Thankfully, a high percentage of goat births are problem free (unless you raise pygmies - eek!) Don't ask me how I know....

    Not a problem! Admire all that you do! And now school on top of everything else. You are da man! I don't know how you find time to breathe - much less study. Whew!

    So glad you had a great date night...and HECK YA spoil that little girl! Moving pigs can sure be a challenge. We found using a couple of pig boards or using a bottomless cage to drop around them and walk them in works sometimes - but "sometimes" often times isn't enough, lol.

    Yep - he's been a nurse for a looooong time, lol. We are pushing the end of our 5th decade of life and he's been doing nursing for 35+ years. He's been in home health care management for quite awhile now and fairly recently mentioned that he misses being in a hospital. I told him that since...

    Thanks for the tip - I'll check out Ben's diary also. And, I MUST blame someone else for the Silkie eggs! To take personal responsibility would be to admit that I just couldn't help myself! What I didn't say is that I have another bid in on another batch of Silkie eggs AND more Barred Holland...

    O.M.G! I finished it...took a few days, but by golly I finished it! What a saga! It's edge of your seat drama, romance, angst, and an emotional roller coaster. First let me congratulate you on the adoption of your beautiful children. Second, let me congratulate you for not only following...
