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

Hey Banti and Connie! What have you been up to? I am headed your way Connie to do some insurance claim stuff. I have a friend who does disaster claims and has offered to train me.
Following chain saw sounds to find me lol. Not a day goes by without hearing them.. Our roads are like a maze to navigate with all the tree debris pilled along them.
Prior to next year's Hurricane season.. it would be wise to purchase stock in corporations whom manufacture CHAINSAWS and BOTTLED WATER.
 
We keep our Buck separated to control breeding. We only breed our best Nannies. The strongest genes, size, structure, age etc. As well as colors, waddles, prone to twins/triplets.
Also lets us control what time of the year (season) the kids are dropped. We control the date and population.
In the beginning we just let them do their thing. Now we have to control population/birth defects/still born/nanny risks.
Maintenance on 20+ goat's hoofs is a full time job.
That's what we'll eventually do I'm sure. It is indeed a full time job, I've got 20 myself.

Goats on grassy plains are bad news for their footsies. We have been incorporating large boulder rocks for them to climb and walk on to dampen the burden of hoof trimming on said Goatie care takers.. us..hehe.
 
Shoot just @MotorcycleChick and Chaos would put us twenty Pages behind in a couple of hours. :lau :frow
Everytime I single reply, I have to go back pages and find where I left off. I should just multi reply more I suppose. I spend more time searching where I was at than reading new posts.
:barnie:th

Each, that'll do it. :lol: boulders are good. Ours roam 38 acres of woods and there's a lot of really hard clay so theirs stay fairly decent with only needing a proper trim every 2-3 months.

That is a great idea since I have 15 adult does plus kids and three bucks to do.

We had 21. Had to dispatch our oldest Buck when he went loco deadly and killed my best nanny. lost another Nanny after a problem birth and one of her kids fractured her neck when she got her head stuck in a tiny hole breach in the maternity pen. Last season sucked. I was so sad. BUT we still have 17 beautiful healthy playful Goats that surround me, push and heart me at the same time. 17 winey spoiled babies! My pride and joys.

I'm sorry, I totally feel you though, I've lost two nannies and five kids this year. (Ok technically two where miscarried but still loses)
