It is a wealth of information, I really love it. I am a petsitter. One of my clients has a small herd of Nubian does. I am on maternity watch now as 7 does are expecting within the next two weeks. I am going to pass on your spreadsheet and hopefully next year we will be able to zero in on the dates. I taught a new Mom how to nurse her twins last year. We have three new moms coming this year, hopefully with your advice things will go well. I am trying out the information today about the ligaments and being able to put your fingers close together at the tailbone. Thank you for this website and your wonderful stories. I felt like I knew Goldie too. I had a whether for 14 years that was a close companion and know how it feels to lose them. I will be checking in frequently for help. Thank you again!

I am a newbie to the goat world and your story made me recognize how dear these unique creatures can be. All 7 of my "children" are less than a year old and I so look forward to having the same experiences you shared with Goldie. They will be forever and eternal, the memories we hopefully will take with us when it is our time. I’m still drying the tears off my cheeks.

My Goat, Little Girl had two babies named Ruckus and Rascal, when Ruckus got pregnant she started having front leg weakness. I believe her twins were robbing her of calcium. A homeopathic remedy for that is Calcium Phosphate and Geletin. The Calcium Phosphate you can get online at a homeopathic website. The geletin you can get in the vitamin department of Wal-mart. You might also give her Gatorade for electrolites and if she's in pain get Arnica from the homeopathic site. Never touch the Calcium Phosphate or Arnica yourself when giving them to her, With remedies, if you touch them they won't work for her anymore. I've been treating my goats, horses, dogs and cats with remedies and they work great. You might also want to give her Echinacea, also at Wal-Mart if you think there's an infection. You can tell by if she has a fever. Good luck. Love them goats. I have ten right now. Expecting some more in a couple of months. Kiddo is a real Don Juan with my girls.

But, I just got a goat and need information on milking, udder (good vs. bad) I've read all the stuff you have but want more. I think your videos like this one in conjunction with the written stuff are better for teaching than writing alone. This one was excellant. Hi Molly,

I have tears streaming down my face -- on Monday, I lost my favorite chicken, Tux. I know, I know, "just a chicken," right? But this chicken was part dog and 100% pet -- sometimes the bodies they're given just don't quite do their souls justice. This chicken taught my dog not to chase chickens (by pecking her on the nose), and was always the first to greet me or anyone else who came to the farm. She'd fly up on my shoulders when I least expected it and nuzzle my neck. We will never forget them. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful story.

]]> Comment on Varicose Vein Surgery by Lisa http://molly-smith.com/2008/01/leg-operation/#comment-8450 Lisa Fri, 19 Jun 2009 21:43:11 +0000 http://blog.fiascofarm.com/leg-operation/#comment-8450 Hi Molly, found this site and hope you can give me some help. I had laser ablation of my greater saphenous vein 4 days ago--on inner upper thigh only--not involving the lower leg at all. Had to take of those hose to get a shower today and am noticing what seems to be some new small bulging veins on my lower shin. I feel some fullness and discomfort--very much like I felt prior to the surgery. I see my doc in 4 days for a follow up, but would appreciate your opinion--is this normal? Is this what the hose is supposed to prevent?? I am trying not to be discouraged, considering how uncomfortable I am in 95 degree Florida weather, wearing these hose, and hoping I have not wasted my time on surgery. thanks for your help, and website.

It is, in fact, his neighbour who takes care of the goat and, as her home is owned by the same person, she has been frantically looking for someone to rescue this adorable animal. I've been busy building a wooden fence around a lovely glade on our land and my next job is to finish the stable I have begun. I hope to find another needy herd animal, to keep Fi Fi La Tour company.
