    Goat Silliness - Pics n Video

    Your buck is gorgeous! Very nice color. I agree about not wanting babies born during the winter. I'm in the snow belt in ohio. Winter births are hard on everyone including the owners that have to run heat lamps and make frequent barn checks thru a foot or two of snow. I enjoy them much...

    Pot Belly Pigs - valbrazen worming

    I use Ivomec 1% injectible for cattle and swine on my pots..I use lable instructions for dosage. A bottle lasts forever and can be used on almost any farm animal. It can also be used topically for lice on chickens.

    Cattle Dogs (Queensland) Changing?

    Lol...that is a heeler for you! I love it that I didn't have to teach Phoenix boundries. He watched where the goats were allowed to go and figured them out on his own. My boxer will get into the road once in a while and it drives Phoenix crazy. Phoenix will run back and forth across the front...

    Cattle Dogs (Queensland) Changing?

    Mine was raised in a house, sleeping in the owners bed. He had only ever seen cats before and was afraid of them because he got scratched....lol. Not a very promising start to try to turn him into a farm dog. His owner was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and died 2 months after I brought Phoenix...

    Cattle Dogs (Queensland) Changing?

    That is so wonderful to take Dolly in and give her such good care. She will pay you back many times over her lifetime. She is a beautiful dog! I'm glad she didn't go back to her owners. She probably aggravated those people because she was smarter than they were. It takes a lot of patience to...

    PYGMY/NIGERIAN DWARF GOATS

    You are more than welcome to differ. That is how we learn. My experience with pygmies was that the teats and bags on the line I had were so small that I would have needed elf hands to milk them. That is one reason why I replaced them with nigerians.

    WARNING: CUTENESS OVERLOAD!!!! Pictures of Billy and timmy (goats) at a few days old <3

    Yep! Mine too. I also think they they know when something is lacking in their diet and by taking them for walks they are able to find it on their own.

    WARNING: CUTENESS OVERLOAD!!!! Pictures of Billy and timmy (goats) at a few days old <3

    Awwww...so cute! I love taking goat walks with mine. I think it's good for them to be able to get out and find things to eat that they can't find on the pasture. Mine love the berry bushes.

    Teeny Doeling

    Thanks everyone. She is doing great and is gaining weight nicely. It's like having a baby in the house. She wakes up and I put her into a box with newspaper and she potties. Then wants her bottle. Then she gets down and runs around and plays with the kittens until she is tired. She comes up to...

    Goats with mites/lice and lethargic PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

    Don't be too hard on yourself. You could have brought them in on contaminated hay or straw. I'm itchy just thinking about it. It does sound like a heavy infestation. Better get all of the hay or whatever cleaned out of their sleeping quarters and then dust it good with sevin. I would keep...

    Got a goat...?

    You Tube is a great place to find hoof trimming videos. You will want to put her against a wall and either have someone hold her or tie her short so she can't dance around while you are doing it. Putting some feed in front of her might keep her occupied. Her heels are going to need work too...

    Teeny Doeling

    Lolly, a first time freshener, had twins on Friday. The doeling is the smallest that has been born here and is just a baby doll. It has been really cold here at night so I decided to bring her inside and bottle feed her. I left the buckling with momma and both are doing great. Today I took the...

    PYGMY/NIGERIAN DWARF GOATS

    You won't get much milk from a pygmy/nigerian cross. A pygmy is actually considered a meat goat. I think the teats would be too small to milk and milk production would be low.
