I have two different kinds of cages, but the answers to your questions are nearly the same for both. I'll try to get a photo later today.
1. The old cages are light wire setting on a wood open frame with a heavy wire "floor" to support the cages. They are high off the ground, plenty of space...
I can get bacon at an ethnic market that costs about 1/2 to 1/3 of the cheapest on-sale bacon price elsewhere. However, it DOES have a pretty strong flavor and is well-salted.
I figured it most likely was an older boar, domestic. Who knows ...
What tastes good is largely a factor of what...
My prayers are with you, BubB. Any proof you can assemble of all the relevant factors might come in handy ...
I wonder how the HD would react if you ask a few questions of your own?
Not sure the best way to proceed ... I usually go for being nice, cooperating, and covering all my bases when...
That's cool. :)
I actually love the idea of an island. That was my fantasy growing up. But that's just it, barring some outstanding circumstance, it's just too fantastic to consider. :)
I wonder how hard it is to get into NZ?
16 foot? Hmmmm ....
My trailer is 8 feet.
I've been thinking, maybe it's not as bad as I thought.
Dog and cats can go in the cab. Goats can ride in a cage in back of truck. Llama can go in trailer. Rabbits could ride easier if I had a bunch of pet carriers, as their cages are large. Poultry...
I haven't given it tons of thought, but from what I've seen of the countryside, New Zealand would be high on my list.
You are talking about leaving mostly for political reasons? If it got that bad, I have no idea how NZ would be affected, if at all.
I got one about a year ago. It was a young female, maybe 60 pounds. The taste was fine ... They said older ones or boars would not taste the same. What amazed me was how vicious she was! Being only a few months old (they get 200 pounds or more around here) and being a female, yet she did try to...
Haha that's what I was thinking ... The food is up to 2% MSG!
And I'm not sure. Honestly, I used to not notice a problem with it, used it myself, and didn't care if it was added.
Then I started getting headaches, extreme dry mouth, etc. so I could tell when I had eaten it. Lately it's become...
I just use a cheap 1-gallon chicken waterer for them, but even the huge one I used to have they probably couldn't flush their nostrils in.
So essentially the answer is no. They do scoop water with the bottom bill and drink it, and that's about it. Which is why it stays clean and filled for a...
The brand we carried came in a roll-on and spray as well as a rock. I asked the same question ...
The spray is just the rock dissolved in water (so very diluted ... You get a lot less!). The roll on is a thicker spray solution in a roll-on bottle. So again, you're getting less. I never bothered...
It would take quite an effort, given all my animals. Pets I can pack in the car and go. I know what you mean by go-bag. I've evacuated for hurricanes, though you have the luxury of time there. Not so, some disasters, so point taken. I will pack one. :)
Animals I dunno. I wish I had a loonnggg...
Thanks for the reply.
Temps here are over 100, almost 110 for part of the summer. We're enjoying a cooler few days but it will go back up. Humidity is normally high at the same time.
I've heard rabbits can be damaged over 85, and mine definitely show signs of distress over 90. I have them in...
My ducklings are older, I have 16 of them, and there is no mama. But here is what I do.
I still provide a gallon chick waterer mostly because they CAN'T get in it, and that will keep them with semi-clean water half the day. Two waterers will provide water all day for mine.
They also have the...
So sorry to hear the sad news. I know that you know you did what was right, and he had a wonderful life and peaceful passing -- but I also know it's still hard. Hugs and prayers coming your way. Topaz was a beautiful kitty, very lucky to have had you and your love.
:hugs
