    Should I put my dog on Valium?

    I have a dog named Buster who is going on 10. I've owned him his since he was a pup...he is a mixed breed chicken protector. He first exhibited strange behavior when he was about a yr old. He began gnawing on himself. It had the vet scratching his head. He thought maybe he had a fever and...

    The puppies that my adopted border collie/australian shephard had that were sired by a blue heeler has FRECKLES!! They stayed white until about a week ago, but now their color is really coming in! It doesn't look like I'm going to have much trouble finding homes for them. All but two looks like...

    Which do you like for the baby? Still chicken related...kinda!

    Which of these do you like for the baby? I was going to do the whole room in chicken, or horses, but then I decided I wanted both. I can't find anything with just chickens anyway http://www.babysupermall.com/main/browse/farm-animal-bedding.html I'm leaning towards the Farm Baby one.

    Hatch went bad. Can I save this one?

    My last batch of guinea eggs began hatching several days early. I didn't have the humidity high enough. Most of the keats died in the shell. I have about nine healthy keats, out of 40. There is one that I have left in the incubator. It hatched day night before last and I immediately saw...

    Label kids and adults??

    I wonder if there isn't a way to label kids and adults. I have noticed several posts were people were harsh with their answers and obviously oblivious that they were talking to kids only later to try and soften their responses after finding out they were talking to a kid. I think it would be...

    What caused this...goat question.

    My boys were out watering this morning. One came running in and said there was a baby animal in the yard. I asked what kind, thinking bird, or squirrel and he said he didn't know. He thought it loooked like an ugly puppy. I asked him if it was alive and he said no. I ran out and found it...

    What to do...Horse Question.

    Okay, so I had a beautiful cobb sized bay here. We bought it for our boys more then a year ago, but they took no interest in him. They prefer to ride our other, more familiar horses. I rode him for the past year and had him performing really nicely on the trails. This horse never bucked...

    My Pekin is Broody!!

    My pekin is definetly broody. She has been sitting her eggs for almost two weeks. Really hard for the past week. She has started hissing if you go near her nest like a goose will. I'm so glad she is sitting! Everyone said she wouldnt, but she has! None of her eggs that I tried incubating...

    what do I do about the turner?

    This is my first time using a turner in an incubator. Some of you may remember that this is a bator a friend gave me to put guinea eggs in. After candling I think most are fertile. They are about 6 days out from hatch. What do I do at hatch time? Do I unplug the turner and let them sit, or...
