I have over 30 registered fainting goats - several from Nebraska. Then I made a trip this spring and picked up some in Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Oklahoma. I took one to Texas with me and came home with 17! I haven't tried selling to hard as am just getting started but do have 4 kids (3...

Precious is foaling now!!!

We had a horse break out in hives once. For the life of us we couldn't think why until my one son asked if it could have been caused from the apple he gave him the day before. Sure enough he was allergic to apples. So you might think of anything different that was fed to the horse. Vet put...

I too had a maiden mare liket his this summer. If she wasn't trying to kick me for touching her bag she was trying to turn around and bite me. I thought "Oh great, this is going to be wonderful for the foal". Well she had a textbook delivery - I missed it but the foal was dragging the bag...

Watching Diana - she deeps squatting and like pushing - I think she is getting ready - just lied down.

My friend was told that about orange tiger cats - and she ended up with 3 orange tiger male cats all having a litter of kittens. :bgrin An easy way to tell is if you raise the tail - a male will look like this : (with a space between the 2 dots) a female will look like an upside down ! (the...

oooohhh - I love those sixlets - I think this is what they are called - the mini chocolate balls covered in candy coating. YUM

Talking about clippers here - I was wondering how the Lister Lazer clippers would do for horses? I know I clip sheep with Oster Clipmaster then follow up with Lister Lazer using the surgical blade on the 4-H lambs. Never have tried them on horses but was wondering how they would work?

I wouldn't stake out on lawn also due to the fact - what type of grass is it? If there is fescue in the lawn, most lawn seed has not been tested for endophytes and is not certified to be endophyte free. So if you are breeding these guys this could present a problem also. And some lawns are of...

We have a daughter of Little Kings Alfalfa Please. The owner of him wrote me a couple of months ago and stated that they thought they were going to have LK Alfalfa Please euthanized as he had gotten cancer in his jaw and wasn't doing well. I haven't talked to her in awhile to see if they have...

We are up to $235/ton in some places in Colorado - this is approx 30-33 bales of hay - everyone says it will be going higher also. I hope not!!

Thanks Kim & MiniHoofBeats - I do appreciate your answers. MiniHoofBeats - you say stay away from varnish roan - why? Is it because it's not true appy? Since I'm looking and knew this would be the place to come for answers since I've never owned an appy - I am wondering why you say this -...

Ok I have been looking for an appaloosa. I have a couple of questions and they probably are pretty dumb ones. Even so hopefully they are easy ones to answer as I would like to know. Here they are - How do you tell if a horse is a true Snowcap or a Few Spot? What do you look for to know that...

I'd be willing to help - we are in SE Colorado - let me know what I need to do.

What color of hair on the inside of the ear are blacks born with, do any of you know? As this filly has light cream to white hair on the inside of her ear. Or does this make a difference with anything? Like I said she is getting lighter also instead of darker - is this normal for a black? Am...

We had a new baby born the night of the 4th. It was a filly, she was 18" tall at birth. Here are some pictures of her. She was less than 24 hours old in these pictures. They were taken of an evening and are in the shadows some. So she was lighter than the pictures make her look and she has...

Also laying around human hair will keep wild critters from coming in. Had problems with skunks and fox - trapped them - then started putting hair off our brushes around - they have not dug into the barn or our chickens since and it's been 3 years since we trapped a skunk and a fox. We see the...
