Quote: I wish I had your coop right now oz! I dont have any more funds to keep putting into them, I really dont. I had a good cry last night, yes a very long good cry. needed it too, I am such a girl I know. I figured out I need another $200. AT LEAST just to cover the two open runs, either way with netting or making smaller runs cost is about the same, wire is so expensive even at our local. I tried to snag some used stuff on CL but it was already gone. I have plans for breeder pens for that large wood shed I have, I can fit tons of pens under it, I dont want to keep up these coops in the future so its idiotic to add more money to them when I want to move them to new in a year and rip the old. I just dont understand.

So many people are free ranging and so many are not testing every 90 and they have the NPIP with PT AND AI clean! I just dont get it, are some states just slacking in duties or is PA just strict by the book?
 
I have milked a horse, and let me tell you she wasn't happy about it. We had to get the colostrum into her baby (whom she had rejected). She was sedated and there were four people helping (on top of the acepromazine, mind you). We had her blindfolded, lip twitched, someone was holding a skin roll on her neck, we had her pinned up against a wall and some one was pulling her tail and holding up one of her legs so that she couldn't kick me. I managed to get 6oz of colostrum for the baby to drink, I nearly missed losing my face and vowed never to breed that mare again. Have you ever seen how small a horses teats are? But the foals titres came out normal, so it was all worth it.
