Great plan.
I really only need one good boy and maybe two or three girls. Wanna keep one for smoking buds and one or two to make seeds. Plans go wrong sometimes tho.
lol Ya know me well, brother!
I do hope youād bring at least one girl along with the boy(s?)
Good morning @MoBilly, @JohnnyPotseed, @BigMike55, @Terpsnpurps, @Golfnutt, @herojuana.tom, and the rest of the green room crew. Your thread šŖ” is looking busy today! We are getting another on of those picture perfect days on the East Coast, nice to see a change in the weather! Have a smashing day gang!
Good morning everyone. Have a fantastic day
Morning @MoBilly . Hope your back is behaving today.
Better but Iām still not ready to take on Mike Tyson. Maybe tomorrowā¦
Thanks.
Thatās my plan. Ill know more in a couple days. They are all pretty nice plants. Except for that one runt. I believe it to be a boy. But heās only about half as tall as the normal ones. Donāt know if that means anything.
Morning @MoBilly @OhNo555 @MrHamilton @Gumbert @Oldjoints @crownpoodle @BigMike55 ! Hope yāall are good.
Iām getting around pretty good man. Thanks. Is your day looking bright?
I donāt know if you were asking a serious question, however, if you were, I donāt feel that you got an adequate answer.
Iām also a city boy, however, I did live quite rurally, about 50 years ago, for more than a decade and juiced cows for money as well as having had my own milk cow for a time. While I understand the discussion was about goats, in this regard, I believe cows bodiesā behave similarly. This is what I recall.
If you skip milking a cow or a goat for a day, you are asking that animal to get a condition called mastitis. The āitisā part is just like any medical word with āitisā at its end, it means an inflammation. Think bursitis, an inflammation of the bursa, or tendonitis, an inflammation of tendons. The āmastā part is like in mastectomy, āectomyā is removal, āmastā is a breast. Mastitis occurs in an animalās bag and teats, and itās an inflammation that can become serious if not attended to quickly.
The milk gets somewhat more viscous and lumpy, and the animalās bag gets tender to the touch. Thatās not milk you want to drink.
The cure is, or at least was half a century ago, antibiotics. I donāt recall which one, but once itās given to the cow, a commercial dairy must throw that milk out. I personally was happy to take that milk and feed it to my pigs, but thatās just me. I think it takes a few days for mastitis to clear up once an antibiotic regimen is started.
Iām pretty toasted at the moment, so I hope if Iām mistaken regarding any of the above, someone with more knowledge will correct me.
Yep @mota . All that fits with what Iāve learned about mastitis.
Not throwing stones mind you but I personally wouldnāt even sample the milk during treatment. When we do our internal parasite treatments itās the same. I want my milk from a clean source.
Goes without saying.
I agree. I only fed it to the pigs, which, in retrospect was likely not the smartest thing Iāve ever done.
Apparently, however, consuming that pork didnāt kill me, for which Iām thankful. There may be others who disagree (not that it didnāt kill me)!
What doesnāt kill you, makes you stronger.
Or, so Iāve heard.
I lived in rural Arkansas for several years but I was more an in-towner. No farm animals. So, I know absolutely nothing of farm animals. Except for my first wife, haw. haw I kid, she was a good woman.
Good morning/afternoon all!
Good morning @420noob !
Iāve been trying to milk my cat, but he doesnāt like it
The antibiotics that you give an animal can make a human go deaf. I used to use it on the turkeys when they got avian respiratory infection. Never eat them eggs afterwards.
