    Show sheep

    Go to your local farm advisor's office. They will have information on 4H sheep projects. The 4H publications should have all the information you need.

    Dog Food

    I fed my dogs a good quality kibble free choice. I am not a fan of raw food because of possible bacterial contamination, such as salmonella. If you are going to mix your own food, make sure it is balanced and has all the needed nutrients.

    Misinformation about keeping chickens in Glendale

    Find the local library and go there and look up the regulations yourself. Call any lawyer's office and they can tell you where the law library is. I have found that what an official tells me what the law is and what the law actually is are often not the same thing. I have also found that the...

    How do I help my pet CornishX lose weight?!?!

    I shouldn't comment. You will not like what I am going to say. I happen to like the temperament of Cornish X chickens. They are funny and quirky and a lot of fun to have around. They have wonderful personalities, but they are not suitable as pets because of their short lifespan. It is true...

    Cornish cross hatching eggs?

    There is that. My neighbor in Missouri had a good small business hatching eggs for people. I have no idea what he charged.

    Cornish cross hatching eggs?

    Buying Cornish X hatching eggs is really not cost effective. You are better off to just buy chicks.

    What breed do you recommend to live outside in a fenced yard and protect chickens?

    The coyote was on the property. I really don't think the dog cared why the coyote was there. He just wanted him gone. In the end it doesn't matter.

    What breed do you recommend to live outside in a fenced yard and protect chickens?

    The LGDs will guard the property. The chickens contained therein will be guarded by extension.

    Good for housing goats?

    My vet told me that while sheep (and other animals) will blunder into trouble, goats seek it out.

    What breed do you recommend to live outside in a fenced yard and protect chickens?

    I think they are guarding the property rather than the chickens themselves. In the end, it is the same thing.

    What breed do you recommend to live outside in a fenced yard and protect chickens?

    LGD's guard what they are bonded to. I question whether they would even bond to chickens.

    What breed do you recommend to live outside in a fenced yard and protect chickens?

    Personally, I think your best bet is electric poultry fencing. Premier has it and you can get it online. Chickens and rabbits bring out the prey drive in dogs and that is hard to overcome.

    rabbit stopped eating

    Just a comment. Buying a new rabbit is always cheaper, but sometimes it is helpful to know why the rabbit died. If you cut the rabbit open you can spot some conditions yourself. You can spot a twisted intestine or abnormalities in the liver and lungs for instance.

    rabbit stopped eating

    I am sorry about your rabbit. Without doing a necropsy there is no way of knowing what happened.

    Cat Coughing

    My cat did that. It turns out she had breast cancer.

    Rabbit tilts head to one side & stumbles when trying to walk

    Check his ears. If he has ear mites deal with them.

    What Dog Breed Do You Want Today!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    If you get a Pug puppy, check out the parents and make sure they are not snorters. I hope you get a Pug. You won't find a better companion.

    What Dog Breed Do You Want Today!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    I miss having a dog. I am not really in a position to care for one now, but I really miss my Pugs. Pugs are wonderful companions. To me they also look like the result of a bad blind date between a gargoyle and a manatee.

    rabbit stopped eating

    Does the rabbit have any other symptoms? Runny nose? Abnormal abdomen? Like tight or squishy? Labored or rapid breathing? In my limited experience, taking a rabbit to a vet is an exercise in futility. You can spend a lot of money and still have a dead rabbit. Force feeding the rabbit is really...

    Pigs

    I can tell you this. In my experience it costs about as much to have them processed as it does to raise them.
