😂 Oh man, that would be crazy if she has piglets! That sounds fantastic! We don't have a bagger on our mower but I will rake the clippings and give them to her!

Thank you! She was with other females. The man said he had a boar but he got rid of him. All the other females had babies. She was the only one without any so I don't think she is pregnant.

I just got an adult female American Guinea Hog. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to take care of her? I read they are pasture pigs but I only have an acre so she is in a 20' x 16' pen with a shelter made from pallets so she don't have to sleep in the mud. I could only find 14%...

Cool! We are just getting started in our journey with meat rabbits. I am looking forward to the day we have some home grown meat in the freezer! I think that is a splendid idea with feeding both raw and kibble. I can't imagine trying to figure out the nutrition needs of 3 types of dogs!

Thanks for the info. I don't want to mess him up so I will probably give him some good kibble and then transition to the raw food diet. That way I'll be able to research it better before I try it out😃

We are considering getting a Great Pyrenees/Newfoundland cross for our mini farm. We have chickens and meat rabbits so I am wanting to switch from a kibble diet to raw food or even cooking the rabbits and chicken for our current adult dog. My question is would a diet like I just described be a...

I think Rex.

He's 11 weeks old.

I am just getting started on my meat rabbit herd. So far I have got a New Zealand White buck and 2 Californian does from one breeder and then 2 broken New Zealand does and what I was told is a Red New Zealand buck from another breeder. From googling I am thinking that maybe he is a meat mutt...

Thank you. That was very informative. I personally like the regular jersey and everything you said makes sense. We are wanting to have a small herd of beef cows too so I would prefer to be able to breed the milk cow to the beef bull so full size Jerseys makes more sense that way like you mentioned.

My husband and I are hoping to be buying a farm in the near future and we are wanting to get a milk cow. I know a little about Jerseys and really like the way their milk tastes and how much cream they give. I have not been around the mini Jersey yet and so was wondering what the differences are...

He is a lot cleaner now that I've had him. I've never seen him pee on himself like I have seen bucks do. I will give him a bath and see if that takes away the smell. Thank all of you so much!

@babsbag I have never done that before but I will definitely consider it!

I've had him for about 4 weeks now. Thanks for letting me know that about wethers mounting does! That would have scared me! Lol

Now I am worried! So far he hasn't tried to mount the doe but do I need to separate them? Or does it look like he's been wethered?:eek:

I am not sure where she had him penned. He was already caught and put in a crate when we got him.

I hope this is a good enough shot.

On the 24th of this month he'll be 5 months old. He was wethered with burdizzio on May 25th. That's what is on the paperwork that the seller gave me. I am new to goats so I am clueless to what that type of wethering is.

I bought a Nigerian Dwarf wether to keep with my half nubian/nigerian dwarf doe. I am slightly allergic to goats but it is the wether that is affecting my allergies worst ( my doe hardly affects me at all). My husband and I both think he has a very strong buck smell. So I am just curious, did...

I'm going to start with solids, brokens and otters. I'm going to wait a bit before I go into shaded.
