Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RebeccaBoyd]

I love the Dalmatian spots. Do you think they will continue into adulthood?

I really do not know. We will have to see as she goes through her juvenile molts. so far she is keeping them.

Though I have to say my heart skipped a beat when I saw the cigarette butt - I thought one of them would eat it.

Yup gotta love them. Ironically I tried so hard to watch what I said in front of her. I admit I was and am no saint when it came to my language. She picked up things from everyone else. Another phone call I got from the head start teacher was when she was demanding to know what "Poop soup" was and why was it her favorite meal. I had to explain it was what she called vegetable beef soup. She started calling it that on her own because it made her go to the bathroom After that one I begged Rosie not to repeat anything she heard or said at home.

OMG hahaha

Kids are too darn cute at times

I have chased them around in the past to remove one from their beaks.

Are you sure? Maybe just not labeled for goats.
This is the exact same product from a Canadian website. It is categorized at OTC. It is labelled for dogs, cats, and horses, but it is the exact same thing just without the word goat on the label.
Same active ingredient, same concentration.

One of our neighbours did order some sort of cat wormer online from somewhere… or maybe they also went the “US pet supplies” route like I did for the Amoxicillin… the horse wormers were all pulled from the local feed stores back in late 2019 or Early 2020. I’ve never needed to worm before though. Also most livestock dusting powders, blu kote, and Vitamin paste… specifically B (apparently goats can need a boost of this when they kid and the kids if deficient can die of “goat polio” according to my packgoat site) and good luck finding Ivermectin without a very trusting vet you have a long history with!

So sorry Alex.

I'm also thrilled with Lilly. She is starting to get some copper coloring in her hackles. She is on track to have as much if not more copper then her momma Corona. I stated I wanted 1 daughter of hers with feathered feet and her hackle markings. It appears Corona listened and delivered in 1 chick.

Well it is a Canadian website selling in Canadian dollars and the product is schedule OTC for dogs. Worth a try I would think.
