    birdbath deicer for goat bucket?

    I got the small heated bucket... for my 4 nigis, 2 Alpines, and dog to share.

It's really a great set-up for...

    That's great, Free... I just sold my first baby boy about 2 months ago now... and we *miss* him dearly. I sold him to an older woman who had just kept 3 or 4 goats for years, but was needing some replacement stock. She sent me a note a last week requesting more of my babies... knowing that...

    Newbie needs Help Please.

    Don't report to anyone regarding GAAMPS - just follow them and be prepared to tell any inquiring authorities that you are following them and how. MI has a very strong Right to Farm Act... To get your place approved... check your ordinance. It should specifically lay out what you are allowed...

    Yay no grain!!

    No kidding. Right in the smaller pen in front of the barn. The pumpkins are sprouting like wildfire... the goats, horse, and dog won't touch it. On a positive note, guess we won't be visiting the pumpkin patch this to buy our pumpkins!

    My new herdsire X 2

    At the risk of sounding like a dork, he's *so* cute! LOL How long does it usually take the kids to get to full coat? I've visited their website a few times, and it's a good thing they are 3.5 hours from me... or I might have taken a little shopping trip! ;) DH would likely make ME live in...
