I had a dalmation get poisoned & die from a flea topical several years ago. I believe it was Promaris. Never had any issues with topicals before that. Since then I'm super leery about what I use. Our vet (a lovely country vet), suggested a Sebesto collar. She shows Akitas and uses it on her...

What kind of bone? Beef? I have some pieces of wood in his pen and some branches for him to chew on, in addition to two types of hay, but I'm always worried they're not enough. Glad to hear about bone. I also have a mouse, so I'll give one to him too.

Our rabbit's vet also told us to make sure he had plenty of hay to eat, to keep his teeth worn down. I had never heard of that either, but apparently their teeth can get too long. Growing up with bugs bunny, I always thought- the longer the teeth, the better for eating carrots! :lau Nope...

We have a house rabbit. We haven't had to trim his nails yet. I hope we never have to. He's a big boy. :th

@oldrooster Everyone has their own opinion, but in MY personal experience, and every other jersey owner that I personally know, WE have to trim hooves. From Maine, to Colorado, to Texas. We ALL have to do it. I could care less if you and your parents think that's funny. It's a fact. And...

Oh, I do want to comment on the subject of miniature jersey's (that was discussed a while back). We have 3 of them. They are basically the prima donna's of the cattle world (at least according to our vets at Texas A&M University). Dairy cows hooves are different than beef cows. We have to...

IMHO if it grows and produces something, keep it. Somewhere. It may not be your chosen variety, but I'd be excited to have any fruit. I try to keep anything that's beneficial in any way. Even if it just produces mulch or shades a chicken coop. All organic matter is welcome. Even the decaying...

Whittier (sp?), Glendale, & West Covina areas. Never been to those areas before, so not sure what's around. We're driving in from Texas, so I'll be keeping my eyes peeled the entire route. :D To everyone else: I'm sorry for taking up so much of this thread lately. I've actually been...

I totally agree about a hand up vs. a hand out. If you have to work for it, you appreciate it more.

You know, I had zero experience with grapes when I first planted them. And I still feel like I have pretty much zero experience. Ha Ha. I just figured oak trees do well with oak mulch, pine trees with pine mulch, pecan trees... etc. So, since I was starting out with small grape vines, I'd give...

We're in TX too, and I finally figured out how to grow strawbs. We have ours in raised beds under our grape arbor. The grapes are planted in the raised beds too. The dirt is a loose mix of dark compost, manure, and old dirt from failed container gardening attempts. Around the strawberries we...

We buy in bulk and can, but have to hide it in our closet because when my mother comes over she'll basically "go shopping" at our house if she sees we have an abundance. She went through about 10 jars of my husbands pickles within about 4 weeks because they went so well with her beer! She was...
