I can't believe I stumbled onto this thread last night. I'm just getting started with Yaks. I purchased 2 bred 2 year olds from Elma WA & have 4 more coming from Idaho this weekend. Three from Idaho are confirmed pregnant so Im hoping for 5 babies this year. I'm still looking for a bull. I like...
I used to show dogs also. Then I showed cats (TICA). Do you still show dogs? What breed(s)? I showed Pomeranians and Havanese. We really didn't need to buy a Suburban. What I really wanted was a canopy for one of our pick ups but since I couldn't find a used one, it was going to cost $1000...
Am I the only one that opted for LaQuinta? We love their pillow top beds so that's where we stay when we travel. I will have some of the green pyramid pens for sale. They are brand new. I have several available, $30 each.
I can't believe I entered 15 birds! In fact, we bought a Suburban...
I'm going, showing, selling and I guarantee I'll be buying. I ended up with a ratio of about 8:1 on my Salmon Fav hatches so I have about a gazillion cockerels for sale. Some are good sized so I don't know how many I'll bring. I haven't figured out exactly what else I'll be taking for sale...
I haven't posted for quite a while. Jean, I'm so sorry for your 2 losses.
These are my 5 youngsters. The smallest 3 are from Kimberly. The larger 2 in the rear are from someone in the Cottage Grove OR area.
They have 3 sources of bath water. The largest is a 50 gallon stock/sheep...
I don't know why it "should" be but I know what my experience has shown. I've heard from others that the humidity for LF breeds needs to be a tad lower than silkies. If the humidity is too high, they drown. Humidity is just one factor when hatching. This time I allowed the water tray to...
I went from zero to seven Sebastopol geese in a matter of 4 days! I'm totally loving it! The first two pics show the 3 that Kimberly was able to ship last Tuesday. They are now a week old and so much fun! I found the others on Craigslist. I took 2 really big road trips to pick up the others...
I have to give a shout out to Cloverleaf! I bought some eggs at the Canby swap. Last week I had a 100% hatch rate on her gorgeous Salmon Faverolles. My eggs from Ed did great as well, both shipped and picked up at the swap. I'm thrilled! Thank you both!
This is only my 2nd 100% hatch...
Hi Kim,
Thank you, yes, I've searched CL. I know a gal in Roseburg that had a couple 2 year old ganders but that's it. Metzer is sold out. They sold out pretty fast. I didn't place an order because I was sure I could hatch some out myself. Doh! Not so easy! I might try again if I can...
