Wanted to say a warm "hey!" to everyone, because I've only been able to peek in from time to time and not chat as much as I'd like. Had A LOT going on this year: some new, expensive health issues caused by flares of old; had minor surgery, health problems with my aging parents, family changes...

Need some help puzzling through what to do for my oldest cat. A little background: she is 15 years old and is indoor only. She is a simple cat who is happy with basics: she likes to sleep in the closet or in winter on the heat register, toddles down to whine loudly for food, eats, uses...

We made it! A fresh new year again!! Happy 2016, Bunny Buddies, and wishes for a productive, fruitful year!!

Happy thanksgiving, all! I am thankful for my amazing children and loving family, for wonderful folks like you, for a warm home, enough food and the ability to draw breath for another day on this amazing planet. Blessings to you and yours.

I put out a live trap to catch an escapee buck. I didn't catch him, but did catch another that is not mine. Really confused about what breed this rabbit would be. Any guesses?

I have a ...sensitive autoimmune system. Adverse reactions to some meds, foods with lots of junk, heavy pollution, extreme stress. I've learned to manage it by watching how many stressors are impacting me but would love to have a stronger immune system. Recently I had an unexpected root...

I butchered a doe today and noticed she had a decent bit of fat starting to build in her internal organs. She's almost one year old and had two litters of kits. She is fed a variety of weeds, some Timothy hay, alfalfa pellets and sweet potatoes in winter, a wide variety of branches, shrubs...

Something that's interesting to me, and thought I'd check in with y'all for the fun of it. I raise scrappy little meat mutts for our family, so have no idea what their genetic mix may be. Not worried about it and not tried to identify color genetics because it didn't seem to matter for meat...

Anyone out there want a free Dr. Seuss hat? (Like what the Cat in the Hat wore.). You'll have to "like" a facebook page, but if you have a "junk" page set up, it won't connect your personal info. Here's the link: https://m.facebook.com/kpeducationalthe ... 9&_rdr#_=_ March 2nd is Dr. Seuss's...

I am rather infamous for getting song lyrics incorrect to the point that I am gun shy to even sing songs I know. It would appear this is a genetic trait. My youngest heard the old Bon Jovi song "You Give Love a Bad Name" somewhere or another (not from me.) If you don't know it or if you are...

I don't think this is an illness, but it's something I've not seen before. I was securing everyone in their cages for the cold weather to hit tomorrow when my youngest said he heard an odd noise from my potential replacement rabbit area. I went over there, and didn't hear anything. Started...

In another post I said I'd post this and am finally getting to it. It'll be up to Mystang or another Kentuckian to post a Burgoo recipe...This is from The Blue Willow Inn in Social Circle, GA. BRUNSWICK STEW 1 roasting chicken (I use a whole rabbit.) 1...

I am getting rid of some of the STUFF that is taking up space. A while ago we'd had some discussion about kids and sensory integration issues. I have a few books on sensory integration that I don't really need and that I'd be happy to mail out if someone could use them. Just let me know--thanks!

First, let me start with a disclaimer: do not do this "experiment" at home! The following situations were a result of carelessness, and buns could have been hurt or died or eaten by predators when they were meandering about. I am setting out the information about plants that were consumed...

My buns have liked pumpkin leaves in the past. Knowing that, I let some volunteer plants have their way, and they're now resembling kudzu. Good, thinks I, more fodder for the buns. But no-o-o-o, says they. The majority are ignoring the leaves. My doe freezer camp pen will give them a try...

So my 12 year old son stopped me tonight when I started to ask him if he had homework. The boy has had a HORRID school year where all his challenges have been front & center and none of his gifts have shown. He said, "no mom, I've got this. I have a new technique." :| ok. Intrigued, I...

:D :farmer2:

It would look like this: yesterday, with the bad weather in Georgia, it took me & youngest child hours to get home in traffic. The 11 yrar old had walked home from school and had done a great job taking care of animals and the home while we were trapped. I gave hm praise and a big hug, the...
