    Heritage Meat Rabbit

    I currently have Americans and was trying to decide between the Cream D'Argents and Silver Fox for my next. After doing a little more research I have decided on the Silver Fox but I still like the look of the Creams.

    ST. BERNARD PEOPLE! BABY PICS of my new...uh...Newfie??

    Looks like your typical roundworm (Toxicara Canis or Toxicara Leonina would have to see the eggs) Give the cutie another dose of dewormer again in 2 weeks. My "pup" who is now a 1 1/2yrs had the same issue when I got him. Good luck he looks like a keeper.

    When Do you Turn on the Heat?

    Quote: Yep same here. We have been loving these mild temps. Kinda dreading the lake affect snow since we moved even farther north last year. Now we live right in the middle of a bunch of lakes. ETA: we have a 350 gal propane tank and United Oil just charged us $387 to fill it 2 weeks ago...

    English style trail saddle

    I have an english style trail saddle with horn (not an Australian) that has only been used a handful of times. The seat size is the equivalent of a 16" western. I need to sell it so I can get a different saddle that actually fits my girl. I would also consider trading for a 17" full QH bar...

    Cats and cranky old neighbors

    Update: I have taken to sitting in the barn and waiting for the cat to come over. I know I keep missing it because of the weeds. I think now I will start sitting on the back porch. As a precaution my DD has been going out to do chores with myself or the dog. Next week I should be able to buy a...

    Ever seen a chupacabra?

    Quote: I have no issue with it. I only have a problem when a few decide the livestock is easier to catch. Then I only try to take out the offending party. They were here first and part of our responibility is to take care of this earth and its other inhabitants. Not destroy it like humanity is...

    Cats and cranky old neighbors

    Ok Couple of posts to answer. I can't Close up the barn due to the fact I have a run in for the horse and goats. I can't just lock them out or in. It's not fair to them. My rabbits don't free rang they are kept in cages. I made a goof that has been corrected when ordering the cages. I...

    Cats and cranky old neighbors

    Quote: Not for the next 6-12 weeks. Moving the does can stress them out and cause them to kill the kits also. Already tried that and lost 8 kits. Not fun cleaning up half eaten babies. I am waiting for lunch hours to end and see if any of the rescues from the other county will loan out traps...

    Cats and cranky old neighbors

    To be honest the sheriff said shoot the darn thing. It aint not good if it hunts your stock. It would be easier for me to take care of a dog but I happen to like cats a little more. I guess the fact that the rabbits need more protecting than cats is gonna make me do it. I have American Blue and...

    Cats and cranky old neighbors

    Rabbits are livestock just like chickens, horse, goats and cows and are kept in the barn. The cat gets into the barn the same as the barn cats, chickens, goats and horse. Stray barn cats that are dropped of run wild MY cats are kept in the house. I do not agree with leaving a dog out 24/7...

    Cats and cranky old neighbors

    Well we have had some minor run ins with my neighbor since we bought our property last May. More recently he has gotten rid of 3 of my barn cats because they come on his property. He said something to me about keeping the cat on my property or he would get rid of it. I responded in kind. My...

    I am SO ticked off by this letter!!!

    Oh ya wanted to add where I used to live they charged $5 for altered cats and dogs, $150 for Unaltered animals and then you are only allowed 1 unaltered animal. Senior citizens are free and if the animal is microchiped and altered you could buy a lifetime tag for $30. There was also a limit of 4...

    I am SO ticked off by this letter!!!

    Quote: Few states allow IMRAB to be given by non-licensed people. They say it is for safety reasons, but that doesn't make any sense. It's a killed virus. Not even vets use a live or ML virus because it is zoonotic. I can understand how dangerous a live rabies virus would be, but a killed one...

    Dog injury: I could use a Vet's opinion

    I have not been around the laser therapy so I can't comment on that. Like farrier stated ligament damages take forever to heal. So if Doc. is feeling scar tissue great. The body is doing its job. Massage does a lot towards helping the body heal. I would highly recommend it. Sounds like your...

    A Neat But Freaky Fact About The Forest

    And people have always thought I was crazy for apologizing to a tree when I have to cut one down. Well I do. I love the big old trees and what they must have lived through to reach 100+ years. All the history around the old ones. Maybe its just my native blood coming through????

    Funny Craigslist ad

    They also forgot about a very loud and vocal bull. My hubby keeps telling me stories of why he hated his grandads bull. He would constantly moo and snort all night long. They could have my extra roo. He is outside crowing his fool head off right now.
