Vaseline is a name brand of petroleum jelly..you have the right stuff..

Thank you so much for the encouragement. This is almost word for word what I told Joe last night, about the losses..sometimes it just happens. :( I think he has been touchy this year with his mom then his dad passing away. Trying to figure out my illness, and dealing with our daughter and her...

Lost another one. one left...We are going to butcher the three from another litter who are two weeks older, and this last little guy. Ready to just give up...I don't know what to do, Hubby is really not doing well with the losses. He is trying to decide if we are going to stop, and get out of...

Hi Everyone, it's been a while buy I'm back...Anyway I have lost 4 grow outs from 2 litters. Over the course of three weeks. There has been no snot or sneezing. No diarrhoea. I keep thinking it is inbreeding but I don't know because the one I lost today was not from the same pair as the last...

Thank you for your help.. Her stool was normal.Joe said that she was fine when he checked on the herd yesterday morning.. This came on fast. I know buns are good at hiding problems but he said she was normal. Pneumonia makes sense though. As far as I know it's not contagious...

Hi, all it's been a while. I had to cull a young (under 1 yr.) doe last night.Hubby went out to do the evening feed and found her lying on her side gasping for air. we brought her in to check her over. There were no marks on her( we checked after skinning as well). we cleaned out her nose there...

Hey, Little fluffy. I was wondering if your bun lounges under the water bottle.? I have seen posts about facial hair loss from hanging around under the drips. In fact there was a picture of a rabbit with an almost completely bald head..I cant remember the post but I think if you search fur loss...

Nope, bright pink. she is a PEW. I thought maybe her neighbor was pulling it out on her bum, but I cant figure out the tops or her feet and ankles..dusted her again last week and she seems to be growing it back. :?

Hi, no answer here but wanted to say that I have a similar problem with one of my does..Her entire butt tali included went bald :? .I couldn't figure it out so I put some D.E. on it. Figured it couldn't hurt. the fur grew back but now the tops of her feet, and the bottom of her belly is doing...

I have lost a couple of hens to being egg bound..is she still laying? Chickens just don't give you much warning.. my last loss was a beautiful roo that had freaters on his legs..my grandson loved that bird he died with no warning. Cameron had named him fancy pants.. he is only seven and still...

I found the book for my pot. It is a pressure cooker and canner. Mirro Matic..with directions for canning. It is very heavy cast aluminum.. I bought it new in 1980 or so.. it is an 8 quart. Hummmm hubby may be right after all (I hate it when that happens) :P

. I have read that you can cook in a pressure canner, but you cannot can in a pressure cooker. Not sure if you were thinking about it, but that's what I've read. Oh. I didn't know that. .I am going to have to do some research. To prove it to him. He understand tool spicificity but has a...

I haven't started to can yet but I really want to. I have an old pressure cooker, about 30 years old Mirro brand but I need to replace the gasket.(hubby wont spring for a pressure caner). Anyway I was reading on a prepper site (I know, we have been around that block before) that you do not need...

Sounds like you have started to turn the corner with your new little treasure. she must have been out for a while if only grass is appealing to her. But nibbling at the pellets and the yogurt coated oats is great. :) keep it up and keep us posted! :D

Sriracha is commonly called rooster sauce..because the company that makes it puts a rooster on the label...if you have a Chinese / Asian market you can get it there. You can use tye chili sauce also the hot sauce you mentioned should work just use as much as you like. I would think if you...

Anyone watching the stock market?

Suzie, I was not trying to offend you,And I am truly sorry that I did. My point although I failed to make it, was that a lot of folks..haven't even got food for a week...nor water or a source for such things should transportation become impossible.Like a natural (solar flare) or man made...

I am sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel bad.. :cry: I was laughing with you not at you..I only keep white does because I know I would do that same thing. My bucks are chico the chinchilla and Buster the big brown bunny. Not easy to mix up with the does..But I did keep back two chin does to...

The olive oil and bacon is for flavor..you don't need both..I just like both. And no you do not necessarily need to roast on slow and low. But in Az. the hotter the oven the hotter your house. There are many ways just do what you like. There is not much meat on the rib cage you can save it and...
