Friday is supposed to FINALLY be a dry day. I need to clean out my chicken coop. So scooping chicken poop is more important to me. :P I would like to see her dress but I'm sure there will be plenty of pictures on the internet that I can see later on that evening. I'm truly amazed at how stuff...

We were so lucky yesterday. We got no rain. Also today we aren't supposed to get any until late afternoon/evening. Then there is the chance of severe storms. My areas that were under water actually drained. So now I shouldn't have to worry about the barns flooding. Just a couple big puddles in...

:woot

Sounds like a tough spot to be in. I'm sure ultimately you will do what is best for everyone. Does DH expect you to get a full time job? I'm really finding that working 2 days a week is nice. But I work very close to home and I didn't need any special clothes so didn't need to go shopping or...

Good luck on the home. When you get a home inspector, I would suggest not using one the realtor suggests. They want to help the realtor get the sale. Septic problems can get expensive. I would be very careful and make sure you get a very good home inspector.

I'm happy in Ohio. Even though we can get some bad/long winters, our weather doesn't seem to be as extreme as other places. No tornado alley, no major earthquakes or on a major fault line, no hurricanes, no volcanos, even the snow fall isn't as bad as other places. Not to mention that all my...

Congratulations on selling the boys!

Very cute! Congratulations! :D

I do CDT every year. I give BoSe (selenium) twice a year and Copasure twice a year. I don't give any other vaccines other than the CDT. I have just found from personal experience that my goats need the extra selenium and copper. Each herd is different so you just have to see how it goes for you.

Congratulations! You will have to post pictures.

She is just precious! :love

Savingdogs - I can't believe you haven't gotten any bites on your goats! Is 4H not big in your area? 4H kids are who bought most of my boys. Finished shearing today and it has done nothing but rain all day and it is colder. We did about 35 alpacas today and it definitely wasn't as nice shearing...

No keeping any wool. All goes to the owners. To be honest, I wouldn't want any. I tried the whole fiber thing and just don't enjoy it. Shearing is done and it all went very well. Has been raining all day today. Very thankful we got some alpacas done yesterday. Happy Easter! :bun

I put my salt and herbs in after it is drained. I'm not sure when the best time is but I was very happy with the results. I guess you don't want to hear that we had a beautiful sunny day with not a cloud in the sky? It was even 78 degrees! I'm just thankful for one nice day. I know it is...

Man, it is amazing how just a couple hours away a whole different scene. We had beautiful sunny skies today and it actually got up to 78 degrees. Only started clouding over a little tonight. I will have to watch the news and see when we get more rain. I know we have more coming. But, we got...

If you wait for your little girls to grow up, then you will have more goats! Just be patient. Believe me, before you know it, you will be swimming in milk. :D I will respond to people by email for Craigslist but I have to see that they are specifically asking about the goats that I'm...

Thanks. My last 3 girls have been with me for a long time so it was hard to see them go. I know I will be relieved when I can leave the house and actually go away for the afternoon. I'm ready for change but I guess there is a mourning period for what you are letting go when it has been such a...

That is beautiful! What a great job! :thumbsup

Well, I'm officially no longer an alpaca owner. I sold my last 3 girls this week. I'm still doing birthing for others but at the end of this year, I will be alpaca-less. I was ready for it but I have to admit that watching them pull out of the driveway made me sad. This was my world for 14...
