I'm about to get some sheep and was wanting to get a livestock guard dog. I already have one great pyrenese and she is wonderful but they work better in pairs. The one I was looking at can be found here https://louisville.craigslist.org/grd/6133125817.html
I know training a dog from a puppy to...
Hello again everyone,
It's tick season again but this year is different for me. I loved in the court before and really didn't have much problem with ticks but having moved out to the country is become a constant battle. I'm pulling around 10 ticks a day off my Great Pyrenees.
I have a...
Hello again. Quick question. Does anyone know where to find the rabbit water feeders that Klubertanz sales from the catalog? It's the J18A found on page 29. I can't seem to find anyone else who even has a picture of one like that much less one for sale. Thanks.
Edit : I forgot to mention I...
I was interested in making a trade for a black SF Doe, a buck and doe Cali or NZW. I have blue SF with pedigree going back 6 gens. I'm located near Louisville, KY if anyone lives out this way or is coming towards this area for a show or something.
I looked on CL and just don't trust the...
Hey everyone, over the past month or 2 I've had around, I lost count of the exact number, but around 40 rabbits die. Three breeders and the rest kits ranging from about 4 weeks to 8 weeks. I thought at first that it might be because of a fertilizer I had put in the yard. Kids picked...
Has anyone with slant boards noticed if the poop and pee tend to "stick" more to the metal slant than to plastic or rubber? I have corregated metal and it doesn't seem to matter the slant. It's a pain to clean especially during the winter months. I'm also trying to get away from putting...
Hey everyone, thought I'd let you know I'm still alive and I have most of my finger(s) still. About 2 or so months ago I was working on a can organizer dispenser for the basement. I had to make a few cuts with the table saw and even though I thought I was being very careful one of the pieces...
I've had silver fox's for a while now and have never introduced any from another breeder into my herd. I was looking on a genetics website and it said that 2 blues couldn't have black but my two blues had three black and three blue.
I have the ancestry back 6 generations or so. All were...
Hey, so yesterday I bought some pigeons to start up my pigeonry..(it's a word) and in the process of getting them home one of them broke it's wing I think. It can't fly anyway. Does anyone know how I can fix it's wing so it can fly? I tried super glue and duck tape but for some reason it...
Sorry to make a new topic on this as I know somewhere in this forum there is something on mastitis but I couldn't find any remedies for it. My doe who just kindled has mastitis...on all 8 nipples. What can I give her to help it. I know I can massage and put compresses on but is there anything...
Ok, so quick down and dirty. Found ants eating my carrots. Anyone else seen this before? They were literally making tunnels through my carrots and putting their eggs on them then tending them. I've also seen something similar on my grape vines. On the very edges of the grape vines, the new...
So I have this extra-ordinarily good Californian momma doe who loves being pregnant just like all women. Shes going on 5 pregnancies in 5 months or so and each pregnancy has held around 10-12 healthy kits! Love her. She's great. This go around I bred her with my ever so zealous Californian...
So I have a doe that's having trouble getting her kits out. She's about 20 weeks or so old...ish...(too lazy to go back out there and check for exact date) but she was bred on 7/10/14 so I expected kits on 8/10/14. She waited till the 13th to have them. My wife and I stayed up watching her in...
If I had an SF doe that gave birth to a beautiful light blue SF, kept the beautiful light blue SF and mated her to a cousin blue SF who is of a darker blue would any of the kits come out blue or would it skip a generation? Explanation clear as mud?
I have 5 Silver Fox rabbits, 3 females and 2 males. You are more than welcome to double check the sex of the rabbits at time of purchase and I encourage it. I'm human and make mistakes. At this time they are 8 Weeks old.
They are $50 per rabbit, male or female; $85 for a pair and $120 for a...
Simple. Is this an agouti Silver Fox and if not what's the color? Sorry, I'm still quite terrible at telling, unless it's black or white, then I've got a 50/50 chance. By the way, sorry for the TERRIBLE quality of the picture. :(
I have 2 full-blooded Australian Shepherd dogs: Griffin and Hazel. Griffin is about 1 1/2 y/o and Hazel is just at 6 mo. Griffin is male and Hazel is female, neither fixed. They get along great! I mean really, they both sleep in the same cage or whine if they aren't. They both want to eat...
Darn you for your terrible math class MSD! :evil: :evil: Either that or someone is giving me kits from their latest popple invasion....MissM....
So my doe had kits about 4 weeks ago or so. I went out to check and make sure none were still born or anything, looked in and saw 5 or so babies...
I started talking to Zass in the "start-talking-to-people" chat box (that's the official unofficial name I just gave it. Patent pending about rabbit broth/stock and how to tell if it was done or how to make it less greasy and then figured why not get everyones take on it.
Zass mentioned that...
Anyone know what this is on my tomatoes? It's not just on the tomatoes either. It's on the Green Peppers and Okra. The leaves that have it on them seem to not be doing as well as the rest of the plant.
