ronott .... the ref was used as part of a joke .... as a zygote in my mothers womb ... i sworn i'd never be serious about anything ... All i know about chromosomes is that i'm not missing one hopefully ! but u have enlighten me ..thank you ... now i got ammo ... i can use on belligerent drivers...
should be interesting ...not the ring part ...you can't determine the sex of sperm using gold ... its only later that the y chromosome determines whether you buying it or wearing it ! (and before the ladies laugh -- y chromo also determines whether you'll be making sandwiches or eating them !!!)...
At last ... I lovvvvee germany ...why'd u move??? Deutschland uber alles ... toured germany for 3 months ... spent most of my time eating bratwurst and drinking weissbier (hofbrau) and some thick dried bacon stuff i bought at Kadewe ... they called it swine spec ... but i know it wasn't ..they...
read about something like this the other day ... just can't remember ....its an infection and the lady that posted toke hers to the vet and got medication .... i think to be on the safe side take one to a vet and medicate all ???!!
seen my chickens take a couple of frogs apart ...as for a mono-goose ...can't tell .. but i'm sure protein is protein at the end of the day ...try it -then post ..like to know how it turns out ... (the student becomes the master)
Thats a Hammy ..got a couple ... my fav is a chocolate colour so i call her chocolate!! sex links looks same but have a white necklace ...like a sussex has a grey one!
My cat hangs around the coop waiting for mice and such (he's always hungry)....no danger to the chickens since they almost walk over him and he doesn't bat an eye lid ... but he gets the job done .
either that or make up little blue uniforms for the mice and grey ones for the squirrels and...
you can lead a horse to water .... but choosing the words '' can i mate her '' is a tad ambiguous .. a better way might have been ... ''would she take a mate at that age'' ... ???

get geese ... they eat grass like cows ... so in summer you don't really have to feed them all the time ... i like to give mine treats like cabbage ... in winter when the grass dries up .. i give them extra corn and of course cabbage .... plus ...they don't back away from a fight easily..they'll...
i'm presuming those numbers are for chickens that aren't free ranged or let out ...hell i'd give them a lot more space then! ps bear in mind ... my coops door is never closed ...
I dont know hey ... looks a bit girly to me ... neck feathers male ...
