    Sudden death or scam.

    Have them bring you the pig and have a necropsy done, if it is from him choking on the apple I would refund them. I would not refund unless they brought me the pig, that's too shady.

    Need help deciding on Breed

    Thanks! Well, I figured I would be giving them the hay with so little area, which I dont mind at all. I would consider milking and 4H too, but overall I have always wanted goats but never had the resources to own them until now! Mostly they will be kept for weed control. Now, I do have new...

    Dead Buck, was fine?

I did however park my car in the garage where they are but the car wasn't running more than a second as I pulled it in. Could that few seconds of car exaust...
