[campingshaws]

LOVES where did that green come from!!!! I dont have any!!! AMEN !!! what pics? I love them!!!!! I was going to order eggs from mpc but they sell in lots of three and I cant even order a doz at a shot oh no!!! hugs momma how do you treat antibiotics and compresses or what?

Antibiotics, compressing the clogged duct, hot packs/ice and praying. lol She gets agitated with her baby when he tries to nurse on that side, which compounded the problem I guess.

Pretty!!! did I tell you I started some new medication today!!

Dang, I need some of those.

Thanks for the CV clarification. Your employer requires you to update your resume every year, that's interesting.
No reason to be sorry, I just wanted to clarify what we were discussing. When breeding genetically polled to genetically polled there is a 12.5% chance of producing a hermaphrodite goat, at least some studies have shown.
My employer is the University of Texas System, it's required of all faculty. It's part of the annual review process and they're in the data system - it's a SACS accreditation requirement.

Yeah, that's what I was curious about. I'm interested in a breeder in San Antonio (Texas Skyz, http://www.txskyz.com), they are near me and have nice looking Nigerian Dwarfs (there are another couple breeders around as well, but that's the one I keep haunting). They have polled kids available sometimes. Most of their updated availability is on Facebook, but you can see the listings. I was thinking polled would be easier, and just make sure buck is not polled (I don't plan on keeping a buck myself.) Mostly I'm window shopping.

Is it just me, or are both these sexy fellas coming on to me through the internet?!

LMAO yer silly!!! but yeah now that you mention it...... They seem to like you

Yeah, I go and hatch or order chicks, start raising 71 of them, and NOW Lissa decides to go broody... Hoping it doesn't last - I broke her with frozen water bottles last year.

I have life in Jess eggs and the GOOSERZ eggs!!!! whoot whoot

but not getting to excited, Air cells are horrible and I still have them upright with just slight turns so all the embros are very tippy top not used to that anymore. I swear I have better hatches when I have them horizontal and the embroys are lower in the egg just saying what I have noticed in this time I hatch!
