For the most part we have always fed sweet feed. Not because we necessarily believe it's the best thing for a horse, but our horses have been fed free of charge by the ranch and that is what they use. On the occasions that we have needed to buy feed we've used Strategy or Ultium and have been...
My poor calf is getting more and more bow-legged, but our vet is out of BoSe and not exactly hurrying to order some more. If I could just buy one dose and pay for the shipping too we'd both appreciate it! It's just too chaotic now to try and trailer him 100 miles to another vet
Brinsea Octagon 20 incubator with turning cradle. This incubator is in great shape and is the most reliable one I have owned. It holds temperature well and I have had several 100% hatches with it. Capacity is approx. 20-24 chicken eggs, 60 quail eggs. Sadly we're in a bad spot and need the...
It hasn't been a good start to the year in our household. My husband lost his job last week and since we live on a ranch we will lose our home also. We don't have anywhere to go yet. Anyway, I have an old horse. He is 24 and not in bad shape for his age, but he is an old horse and a little...
I got my MIL an antique photograph for Christmas, and was wondering if anyone knows how to track down signatures. It would be really interesting to find out who took it, I believe it was taken in 1913.
I haven't hatched anything in forever, and lost 70+ birds to predators this year. Now I have a pretty homely-looking flock, mostly cross breeds that I was free ranging. I want to start raising some really nice birds again, but where is the place to buy good hatching eggs since Eggbid disappeared?
One of our cur dogs cut her ear yesterday working cattle. It's just the very tip, but if any of you have experienced this you'll know what a pain in the behind such a small cut can be, and everytime she shakes her head blood goes everywhere. It's not bleeding heavily, but dripping. So far...
Katie is our keeper out of a litter of Black Mouth Curs we had in September. She is 11 weeks old now, her seven brothers and sisters left over Thanksgiving. They DO NOT make good chicken dogs! When she's older she will work cows like her parents.
While browsing Ebay I saw the following in a listing:
"i use the shipping calcultator for shipping so dont whine about the price afer the fact. We don't ship to P.O boxes unless it will fit in a standard size mailbox , And if I have to go to the post office to ship something to a P.O. box...
After three years of dairy goats, my husband has suddenly come round to the idea of a milk cow. Why I do not know, but i'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. He would like to get me one for Christmas, not necessarily actually at Christmas though, we may wait until the spring.
The...
My father and FIL are both impossible to buy for. Trouble is I need to buy my father's Christmas present this week. He has no hobbies, he is retired, and he is one of those people that if they wanted something they would already have bought it for themselves. I'm at a loss. I feel bad that...
I have a small dairy herd and the mature does are giving me fits. They just will not gain weight, and it isn't just a 'dairy' thing they are skinny. I'm at my wits' end about what to do. They were dried off in July and haven't gained much weight since. They have unlimited alfalfa hay and...
I was given these as part of a tack clear-out by a friend of a friend. In all my time riding English i've never seen anything like them though. What are they for/how do they work? I've tried searching all of the tack stores for something similiar, to no avail.
