Ah cool. I'll have to look for some

Sorry can't remember his temp, he had a definite fever enough to concern the vet

Sorry for the late reply it is planting/allergy season, so I've been busy or dead! I took him to the vet where they gave him a vitamin b shot, a steroid for his appetite, and an anit-biotic that was not penicillin. He perked up and ate some that night, but was sore from the shot. The vet has had...

Thanks. I'm taking him to a vet today. His goopies are better and he did start drinking some milk after I gave him some herbs.

My two month old buckling I just got today has a little cough. I'm supposed to bottle feed him too, he supposedly has been bottle fed but doesn't seem to have much of an appetite. I had to separate him and put the bottle in his mouth to get him to drink. He is not as active as my other 3 month...

Since we are on the subject- This article claims one study done of RoundUp in the soil remained for 22years. And the mineral deficiency in the plants and with animals that eat it is interesting http://www.naturalnews.com/031138_Monsanto_Roundup.html

Hey I have just moved to Idaho. I know it has a wide range of environments. I thought selenium depletion was more associated with areas of higher rainfall. Could you tell me what part of the state you are from? Down in Utah that is not something people really worried about.

Ya I think you are correct. Different parts of a tree isolate and concentrate different things. Then the wood getting smoked is a chemical change giving out changed substances. I am allergic to bees but can put raw honey on my stings and it draws out the venom, and really cuts time off the...

Many say roundup doesn't stay in the soil- yet there are controversial studies that beg to differ, even if the land appears to be in recovery. Ya I tried some compost from a non-organic farmer a few years ago...

Welcomer from Idaho! Pretty sheep!

Hi, I used to live down there close by, in Orem in fact. Have family in that area. They were becoming fairly animal unfriendly and made goats illegal, although we didn't have any. So we looked for a few hard years in the area, gave up, and moved to Idaho for a few acres. We are supposed to get...

How does one steal a cud?

How hard is it to milk a sheep by hand?

Hmm not sure what their normal ph for skin is, but you should consider if you use a people shampoo it could cause or aggravate skin problems. I would try a quality dog or horse shampoo. As having been a dog groomer for 3 years, I have noticed it sure makes a difference sometimes on dogs.
