We have stinging Nettle and it looks a lot like another weed, has gotten me more than once when I went to pull it out without gloves.



Sweet, we need a pic!



Good to hear.



I had a Siberian Husky that would pick his own tomatoes. I thought something was stealing them until I caught him.



DEAL!



Good luck!



Boooo!



Doing good, how about yourself and the Mrs?

We're doing great. Just trying to stay cool.

Wonder why I'm not being notified when someone post on this thread?

I know... But somehow people in town look at you funny if you walk in dressed in your PJs.

Not at Walmart-- dress code seems to be pjs and curlers. I notice that I'm always overdressed!

At the top, did you hit the "watch thread"? That's all I've been doing.

yes. It did give me an alert when you posted . Thanks. I was curious because there were a lot of post on here when I just happened to check in that I wasn't alerted about.

Hey DAN if you see this, I need baby bunny advice?!?!?!?

My daughter's dog, brought us a baby bunny with it's eyes not open yet. We did a little googling, and were able to make it a nest under the heat lamp in the brooder room for it, and syringe feed it 1-3cc's of kitten/goats milk.

They said if it's found stressed out/dehydrated it's chances of survival are about 10% but it was in semi-decent shape when we found it, and it appeared fairly healthy, despite being carried by a dog.

(I'm just surprised he didn't kill it and actually brought it to us alive???)

We would have just put it back in it's nest, but had NO idea where he got it from

Any tips for syringe feeding and taming a wild bunny. I told my daughter since it's survival rates are so low, if it survives, she can keep the stupid thing.

They make small bottles. The problem I found with the ones in the pet stores is the rubber was very thick. Once you pierce it (haven't found one with a hole) it doesn't have the natural movement of the silicon. If you use a syringe, be careful not to press it into the kit's mouth. Get the drop on the end for her to lick. Avoid anything coming out of the nose as there is likely aspiration, then. I would suggest feeding in a more upright position.
