    I have noticed this about BYC...

    Quote: Absolutely that wasn't my point. My point was, OMG she has puppies that need joint meds, what will they be when they are 2 years old. Had I had a clue that you were looking to supplement growth, it would have been a different situation all together, and there in lies the problem with...

    I have noticed this about BYC...

    Quote: I agree, and so far I have not sniped back at those who have posted hateful comments. What I am doing with this thread is bringing things to the forefront so they can be discussed, and maybe a better mood established. Why do you think Kate quit posting? It sure wasn't because she was...

    I have noticed this about BYC...

    I have noticed that in general many (not all) of the people on this board are looking for a fight. Many of them can not stand anyone who disagrees with them. It is a complete shame to see adults who have so little self control, and common decency. A good disagreement can yield a lot of...

    Joint Medicine questions

    Ahh, yes many of the larger breeds need increased calcium levels because they grow so rapidly. Glucosomine and Chondrotin should not be needed by growing dogs, their should have ample joint fluids. You can buy DiCalcium Phosphate for horses and use that to supplement your dogs, it is very...

    Can I put 2 male Cockatiels with 1 female?

    Good luck finding your pairs. I started with one male, then set out to find him a mate, now I have 9 adults and 4 hatchlings.

    Can I put 2 male Cockatiels with 1 female?

    No, I would not put them together. I have had 2 pair in a cage, and once they go broody, the fight is on.

    sensitive stomach?(Update)

    You might also try cooking rice, and mixing that with her kibble. It can help firm things up.

    sensitive stomach?(Update)

    Try finding a food that has beet pulp in it like AttaBoy. It is not a terrible great food, but it can help her gut adjust. After a few months of great stools, then I would reintroduce the desired feed.

    Joint Medicine questions

    First of all, why are you providing joint supplements for puppies? If they are so badly bred that they require this kind of immediate medication, I would take them back to the breeder. Secondly, yes some of the ingredients have a shelf life, you may get away with using them IF they have not...

    About using ivomec for goats

    Pour on Eprinex took all the hair off several of my goats, please do not use this wormer for your goats. Ivomec is great, pour on Ivomec is great, Eprinex-what a nightmare.

    ATTN: American Pit Bull owners.

    First of all, while we can draw correlations to fanatics, that is not what this thread is about. If I remember correctly, it is about proposed legislation/rules that would classify dogs over 40lbs as (potentially) vicious. Dumb idea in my book. Question-I do not see an "American Pit Bull" on...

    goat loosing hair

    Tea tree oil will be useless. If you are bent on using that approach, get some food quality DE and dust the goats with that. Just know that while it will kill the bugs that are on the top of the skin, it will do nothing for those that are under it.

    Sheep and (intensive) rotational grazing.

    I do 6 weeks on, and 6 weeks ore more off. When the goats are off a pasture the horse is on it.

    3 week old kid refusing to eat - Advice Needed

    3 weeks is when we start cocci prevention treatments, worm, and give our kids their first Covexin 8 shot. Standing hunched up usually indicates a tummy ache, which could be from a million things. I would give him 20ml CD Antitoxin SC, and 20 ml by mouth on an empty stomach if he was here, and...

    baby goat emergency (she's a LOT better) - updated with pictures!

    I use human fast flow #3. Yes, you can get away with every other day, my problem is if I skip a day, I sometimes forget to give it on the day it is due, so I dose daily.

    Breeding question for goats.......

    When an egg is fertilized it releases a hormone that in humans most often insures a single egg is fertilized. In goats, that hormone is not as strong and you may have 2-4 paternal twins. If two bucks are fathering babies, those bucks need to breed the doe wham bam quick, before the previous...

    We got 2 bottle babies!! Question on feeding

    Most of the time bottle babies will look bloated after eating. Not to worry, their tummies are like little hoses at that point, not terribly big and deep.
