EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[kajira]

Ugh - So, my pygmy gave birth to twins. She just abandoned them. didn't cleanthem up, didn't help them with the afterbirth, so one still was stuck in the sac, and the other was barely alive. I brought it inside and washed it off and got an ounce of warm goats milk into it. Now I have to go milk her to keep her from getting engorged or getting mastitis.

First time mom, and she picks the morning I'm trying to get back to the hospital to go see my son, to give birth and be a bad mom....

Ya think? This place is literally crawling with rabbits. I don't know what their fascination with this particular patch of ground is, but I can't remember them never being here in abundance. They're so used to seeing me that some will let me get within 3' before they run off, which is never far.

Friend at work used to buy bargain apples for them at the shop yard. Till he couldn't afford it any more. 15-20 of them would all come running when his truck pulled in.

Son's in the hospital, not with 1 thing, but 3. He has strep, the flu and pneumonia. He was admitted last night after I spent all afternoon with him trying to get him on oxygen and stable. Dad spend the night with him after we fought to get him transfered to the local hospital and not the one that's 6+ hours of driving so we could swap off and trade sitting with him at the hospital. We can't leave him there alone, he'd rip out his IV's and oxygen and they don't have staff (at ANY hospitals) for him to be there unsupervised.

Plus, they'd probably lose him. or he'd destroy all their equipment......... or both. LOL

mornin whites! she was crying before school this morning. She really did alot on Sat and then Sunday she wasnt feeling good at all. We dont have a clue what up with her, when I start to believe its all in her head, she shows signs that it is something else, example of playing outside for the first time all winter Saturday and then getting hit with pain during the night again and then all Sunday. It is freaking me out because I dont know which way to turn or who to turn to. Doc said he ordered Toxicity tests but I asked that he let me know when in system so I can get her there but no response ughhhhh

Continued prayers for HarmonyAnn, Sally. I know this is so very frustrating.

Glad you were able to save the one.

Typical goat.

Morning all!

It's official that Abi's ducks have trained me. I make them a soup every morning and night to make sure the one with the broken bill is able to eat, and they have figured out the schedule, and gone so far as to insist that I give them their soup before I even feed the chickens. They have no problem quacking loudly to tell me I am late with their soup! Funny ducks! My old goose finally joined them and they all seem to be getting along just fine.

 

[dan26552]

Good ducks.
