goats,chickens,horses,ducks and ofter farm updates.

So the farm is doing good .

We have horses and ducks now. The goats are good and they are loving the cooler air . The horses love the grass and they love the attention they get. The goats love their food too and they go nuts over the feed. The chickens are giving us a lot of eggs and we are geting 10 eggs a day from 20 chickens.  I have one rooster that is in his own pen and his name is Rocky and he is a barred rock that crows at 4:00 am. The ducks LOVE water. The garden is doing good .  We are geting a lot of stuff, like squash and cucumbers and tomatoes.  We have accidental pumpkins growing in our compost pile.  I do the chores at 7:30pm. The goats get 17 percent goat feed and the chickens get egg layer feed. The ducks get duck feed and the horses get 12 percnt horse feed.  The goats love hay .  The horses love hay too.  I hope you have a nice day!!!!!!!!

goat health



      Hi   I am so sorry I am not posting much I am busy on my farm.

So lets talk about goat heath.  so goat bloat is when a goat eats to much rich green grass and they cry out in pain.  goats can get lung worm. lung worm is when goats have worms in the lungs.
goats can get foot rot . foot rot is when the hoof is rotting .what you have to do for foot rot is you trim the hooves . goats can get tetanus. tetanus  is when a goat gets cut.

Chicken health chickens can get egg bound. Egg bound is when the chicken has  a egg stuck in the vent.
What you do for egg bound is you put preparation H up the vent and the egg will pass.
you can sock the hen in worm water for 20 minutes . Chicken can get peritonitis that is when the egg does not have a yolk.  And what you do is  you have to put the chicken to sleep. chickens can have heat strokes.



we have runner ducks and 2 horses now.
