We were thinking of using this to create temporary fencing around forage areas. Anyone else use this? Pros and Cons? It will be used for Nigerian Dwarfs. Oh, also if you know of the best and most economical brand of netting please share.
Thanks!!!
Got a new baby buckling born 3/18. He rode an hour or so in a truck bed in a crate to get to me so I thought him and his half brother's goopy eyes may have been from dust getting in their eyes on the trip. They still may have been because the brother's have cleared up. The half brother is...
This gorgeous boy was born yesterday, 4/26, He has some awesome milk and show lines behind him and should make someone a very nice herd sire for a very reasonable price. Udder pics soon as momma is still yucky back there but I was very happy with her udder!! In fact, her udder was so large...
To find 3 dozen eggs under a broody who wasn't sitting on them enough to cause them to hatch. Not me. I am scrambling them with some goats milk, rosemary & garlic for the pigs. With the cost of pig feed being so high I can't complain about some "free" food lol. Plus I can sneak the natural...
So our tam piglets are going to be going to their new homes soon. They reside with their mom and dad in a large pig pen. What is the best way to catch the little ones when it comes time to send them to their new homes?
Ok so my first breeding seasons I was using agrilabs vitamin & electrolytes plus solution in the does' & bucks' water. I ended up with 12 does & 3 bucks at birthing time. This past breeding season I did not use it. So far my count is at 2 does & 3 bucks born, but one of the does doesn't count...
Getting a new baby doe. I wasn't really planning on it but I am super excited. So she needs a songbird name I have it narrowed down to 2. Feel free to throw in another name if you think of one I like I will consider it... Here are the 2 I have (Prairie Warbler) & (Sage Thrasher). She is a...
Love this little moonspotted guy. I was thinking of keeping him for myself but I am going to hold on to his sire a bit longer and with my little herd I can't really hold on to both of them. He is pictured here one day old, born 3/11/13
Sire: Chenango-Hills Bo Brummell *S

I just went out to check on all my animals and noticed there were only 5 piglets instead of 6.... So I tossed the big-uns some food so I could safely enter the pen and look around. Back by the rear side of the property and the rear of their pen right on the edge of the bottom electric wire was...
So this is the first year I've had enough bucklings born where some will be wethered and sold unregistered as pets. In the birth sequence tattoos do you still count the unregistered pets in the sequence? Or just move on to the next goat born with the next number? For example if D1 is...
How much would you sell purebred unregistered Tamworth pigs for and at what age? I can't sell breeder pigs since I only have 2 pigs and all piglets will be related so they would be sold as feeders. I know they are rare & hard to find, and also are a heritage breed that forages well so they...
I know it is possible for rabbits to carry more than one litter at once because they have 2 uterine horns. Goats also have 2 uterine horns is it possible for a goat to do the same? I have one goat that still looks pregnant that gave birth to a single a month ago. I don't think she could...
I am going to get a new doe that is just about to kid. Should I wait until after she kids to move her over here? The trip is not that long maybe 20 minutes but I know goats stress easily and it will be a new place and new herd etc. My daughter wants me to go get her before she kids. Also I have...
