Gorgeous Creme D' Argent rabbits are great as pets or for homesteaders. I'm getting out of rabbits and am selling my whole herd. I have does of various ages and two bucks. The bucks are 10 dollars each, and one (older) doe is also 10. The remaining four does that I have are 15.00 each, firm, as...

Mini nubian. Well we do have plenty of alfalfa pellets, she doesn't care for them that much but I'll offer all she will eat. Thanks for warning me about the 21 days and getting worse before she gets better. The doeling is doing much better as well, thank you so much for your help!

Cool! I'll have to look for that. We don't have TSC but we have a similar store, but nobody there knows about goats and their goat products consist of about half a shelf. We are kind of way out in the boonies in WA state. They do have a pig section however! I want to say I've even seen that...

It is quite possible this doe is giving VERY rich milk and lots of it. This is why this doeling is so important to me! LOL Actually I was just as worried last year about a little wether, but I did not get a doeling out of this doe last year and this is really what I was hoping for so I'd sure...

I have a three day old doeling not doing super well. Let me give you her history: She is one of triplets from my doe Molly, a very good mom. This one is much smaller than her two brothers, and was thinner at birth, but drank colostrum right away (I was there watching) and seemed to do great for...

We moved from city to country when our sons were 12 and 16 (my daughter was grown up already). The boys were soooooooooooo against the move, they wanted nothing to do with "hicks" and thought they would not fit in, etc. The older one is extremely helpful, but never took to the farm chores. He...

Thank you!

Oh, by the way she is also in heat today! Do you know what dosage of Pen G for a 75 pound goat? I have been thinking about that.

I'd like a magic wand as well, that is a good one!

My doe Ginger stepped on a nail yesterday. It was a small rusty nail connected to a small piece of wood (she had been free ranging in our field). I saw her holding her leg off the ground. The nail was fully embedded in her hoof. The piece of wood made it simple to yank it out, and soaked her...

We made our own rabbitry, I'll have to get photos, but we did NOT stack the cages. This is a gross question, but when they urinate doesn't it drip out the sides and down to the rabbit below? My males especially seem to pee out towards the sides of their enclosures.

I'm one of the people Heartland Rabbitry got interested! I have five females now and two bucks, looking forward to next spring when I can breed the youngsters. Your doe is gorgeous!

You can make farmer cheese from just goat milk, lemon juice and use a big pot and a colander or strainer. I'm sure it isn't as fancy as some of the other cheeses, but it tastes great!

Darling? I thought it meant Dear.....:idunno

I'm glad I found the journals over here! I like the adaptation someone did to the questions to make them BYH-ish! :bun
