I cleared the cache and that seemed to fix the problem. Thanks!

Does the home page picture of the week have to be manually changed? I still see Harriet the goat.

I guess POW is now defunct.

Welcome to the world of goats. While I do not know your friend, I take no one's word when they adamantly say that a lump or abscess isn't CL. Unless the goat was tested and there are current lab results on paper to prove negativity, there is always a chance that the lump was more than an...

I always thought it would never happen to me, but yesterday, my Newfie was diagnosed with Lymes. In spite of my best intentions for prevention with appropriate product, it still happened. I first noticed a lethargy with her and then a favoring of her front leg. When I groomed her last week, I...

Since your husband doesn't have the chutzpah that you seem to possess, why don't you talk to this woman and explain, again, why you don't want your animals fed corn? I can't help but think this would solve your problem in short order. Putting up a sign is only going to antagonize and invite...

While not highly publicized, using alpaca for meat is not uncommon. I've had it and it's very lean and tasty. It ranks up there as being a very healthy meat due to the low fat content.

Kusko is a handsome boy. Congrats! When is his companion arriving?
