INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

Sold two goats. The goat tears!! Only Mama Roxie and baby Beaux left for winter.

Well, at least your feed bill will be less. I have seven does. Four are with the bucks now and the other three breed in October or November respectively. I hope to get enough kids to buy enough fence to finish going around my property But that means I have to sell all those cute kids again so I understand. (Well, I will keep a doe if Daisy has one since I almost lost her this year.)

Im not worried about today, i'm worried about what happens NEXT time.

Her first sting... no reaction but a small red spot.

Her second sting, swelling like 10x their normal size on fingers....

so third, or fourth time.. leads me to believe, an epi pen may be needed to hav eon hand, just in case? where 30-45 minutes from an ER if she gets stung again.

Yeah, talk to the doctor soon. BTW, hot black coffee! It works for asthma attacks as well as anaphylactic shock. JIC you need that info.

Hi everyone. Back to work but bad news. Mri results came back and if they call you before your appointment, its never good news.I have this:[COLOR=363636]  Complex tearing of the triangular fibrocartilage. Its about as good as it sounds. basically the group of cartilage and surrounding tissues/fibers that stabilizes the hand to the wrist is jacked up and why I have no coordination or grip strength and severe intermittent pain. I was immediately place in a hand and wrist brace/stabilizer until I can see a hand surgeon to determine the severity and course of treatment-anywhere from a mega-brace & steroid and pain injections to a cast to surgery. I am still able to desk duty for now and I am teaching the new grads, nurses and techs quite a bit. But I am having my pity party right now and if one more person tells me "well at least your not left handed" I am going to tie their arm behind their back and challenge them to carry a lunch tray, wash their hair, make a meatloaf....... I'm sorry to be negative and vent but this is far from anything I ever expected.....[/COLOR]

Hey everyone! : only a few days left until my first hatch! Things are looking good so far.

Nice to see you again!

My poor dogs are mad and ready to go hunt.. I am taking them out tomorrow and starting my cooler cabinet like Sally built. Looks really cool!

It doesn't hurt to be cautious. If she gets stung and swells in the wrong place it could be an issue.

Good plan! I want to get 1-2 registered doelings in the spring, they'll be the "new babies" for the summer program, and have everyone bred in December. Then we can have camp babies that I can sell in the fall to pay for winter feed. That's my tentative plan... But my plans never usually work that well. :/ I'm a hands-on mistake maker.

Kelly the baby dove looks like a big blob in the nest. I think she is supposed to be flying around by tomorrow. So far, I have only seen her laying down in the nest. I was getting worried until I saw her eating this morning. Since not everyone likes to follow links, I will just tell you. Doves have a special milk that they form in their mouths for the young. I will have to relook at the information, but I believe that her parents will be taking care of her for another two weeks.

I am having to need my Saanen early since we are unsure of how much udder function Daisy will have. My vet said it is easier to do bottle babies when it is cold. I did not plan to breed for babies this early. I just hope February is not a bad one.
