Xactly. XD Once all us kids were old enough to do so Mom would press-gang us into helping decorate. The woman loves Christmas SO MUCH that she used to have seven trees all around the house! The big 10 ft tree would be fully decorated with white lights and all the other little trees would have various colored or white lights and were decked out in different themes.

Wow, that is too much for me. If you enjoy it set the stuff up just don't turn the lights on till later. Personally, with just me I just set up a nativity with two reflective glass angel candle holders beside it.

Lovely!! I love nubians, I have thought about purchasing a mini nub to try the milk, somehow havin two goats apposed to 8 of my dwarfs sounds so much easier!!

I have gone overboard the other direction. I will I have nine Nubians three first fresheners. I will have lots of milk and work.

@Sally Sunshine I have been interested in the Kinder's and the dwarfs, but they are too much work to keep penned up and off stuff

This is my little straggler from yesterday! She is walking now but won’t open her little eyes. I warmed some water and gently wiped off anything that may have caused her eyes to stick but that wasn’t it. She drank some nutri drench and seems healthy otherwise. She had some yellow (not yolk left over in her shell?)
I have 6 new Q- Tips!!!

Boy you need somebody like Banti or Abi around here or Sally that can remember better. I think there was someone in the thread the last year or the year before that had a chick that had something wrong with being able to open its eyes. Of course there was one that didn't have eyes but there was another one that had an issue. You might try searching in the notes section or using the search engine on our thread the old one.
