    Cucumber? I said crumbles..:)grower crumbles..Hmm.. a all-flock feed is a good idea...but I haven't seen any such feed other than grower,layer and finisher.

    Pullet or Cockerel ?

    Goat not kidding even after scheduled time..

    Believe me i have the dates correct.. I myself went to the vet with her for artificial insemination and noted down the dates..

    Goat not kidding even after scheduled time..

    Yeah..The dates are accurate. I haven't feeled its udders as she is a very feisty doe and won't let me touch her(also got long pointy horns).. But by looking it doesn't seem hard and her teats doesn't seem fully swollen.. I have seen movements on the belly ..but don't know if it's her breathing..
