Unfortunately, I have to bow out of the hatchalong. I have had an order for chicks and I need to set them on the 15th. Maybe the Cinco de Mayo will be my hatchalong, its my sons birthday.

OMG! Over 750 posts since Saturday??? Forgot how fast these threads go.

I'm not reading it all. Had to run my daughter over 100 miles onSaturday, to Berkeley. Labor pains finally stopped. Spent the weekend in the Bay Area and no working on my party of the baby shower so we can spend the weekend out there again. If she goes into labor at the shower, I'm good!

None of my LF purebreds are laying yet. I'm seriously thinking about that talk while holding a stock pot if they don't start back up in time for this hatch. Then again, if it's a bad hatch, I'd prefer the project eggs. None of the pullets from this year that have started have laid a lavender egg yet. I may have missed my boat.

Just because everyone else gets to post baby pictures. Daisy is now 6.5 months old. Her dam just came back from being at the breeders for a month.

Babies are so darn cute!!!

Quote: We have a few head and our preferred is 4 or 5 foot horse fencing, attached to 4x4x8 ft PT posts set 3 feet down. That is the main area. Then we used electo-netting in the pasture areas to rotate the grazing area. Electic fencing is a good temporary fencing but has its draw backs if the power goes out = they know its time to excape. Generally the sheep were so scared of the fence that they never challenged it once they learned it was HOT. But that is sheep and not goats . . .

Often the outer perimeter is a permanent fence that is goat proof and use electi for inside ( small pens for rotational grazing)

This fencing lasts-- ours has been up 20+ years.
