LOL Are we gonna get into a bidding war over Illia's W/BW AM's? lol

Don't worry. I'm realizing I need more incubators, so I'm buying two more. . . And setting a bunch more eggs.

So if things don't go through, there's always 3 weeks later.

WA4-Hpoultrymom - It could likely be a black, but that's a LOT of yellow and too much similarity to mottled birds. You sure you don't have a mottled split in there?

lol I can wait if I have to.

I took our small car there, no chances it could carry a tank.

Also, I didn't even know we'd be heading out that way until yesterday.

Are you sure its not the ring-tailed cat? that is most commonly called a civic/civet cat


ya all trying to drive me insane! I know its on purpose too

 

[cheryl98117]

Nope its got a thick body just like the Fisher, same face, same ears. But do Fishers stink? Like cat spray? Or maby that is just around the den that stinks... Trust me... This critter has baffled me for years. So far the Fisher is the closest.

I can look at just about any horse and almost always tell you what breed it is. Their are some breeds that throw me off, but they are more uncommon breeds.

I'm not trying to drive you crazy. lol But at least now if I have a question about washingtons wild life, I know who to ask.

And that list!

G'night folks. We are heading up to the Pygmy Goat Show at Evergreen Fairgrounds tomorrow bright and early! Not showing, just looking. My youngest DD is the only one who decided to join a goat 4-H project, so she's getting hands on training in the morning on how to fit and show a goat. Should be fun!

I had a Nubian Doe named Butters. Well I didn't have her, she belonged to my husband. lol I wont have goats again after that little pain in the rear.

I don't miss her. We gave her back to the lady we got her from. I couldn't keep her in any fencing except for the dog yard. "7' tall no climb field fencing, strung on 4x4's, and burried in the ground." Anything else she would climb over, through, under... lol She was fun, but I couldnt't keep her hear safely, and she tore up all my horse fencing.

No more goats.

So you do eh? Can you name THIS?

 

[Illia]

Nope.

I believe Morgans only wish to get the reputation this breed gets. Plus they don't have the neck set or the muzzle.
