BioPRYN is a non-invasive, quick response, 97% accurate, embryo safe, quality assured pregnancy test for goats, cattle, sheep, elk, bison and deer. I was able to test my small herd 26 days after separating my bucks and does, and had a definitive answer as to the pregnancy status of my does in less than a week...and it is very reasonably priced!
http://www.flockandfiberfestival.com/ The Oregon Flock and Fiber Festival is a great, fun-filled weekend event held in Canby, Oregon the end of each September. It showcases the fibers of goats, sheep, llamas, alpacas, and rabbits both through live shows and exhibits. Other natural and plant fibers are also featured. It is an outstanding event for fiber enthusiasts and their families. Please check out their website.
Fantasy Fibers, located in Canby, Oregon, does complete custom fiber processing, including washing, dehairing, carding, blending, and spinning. They do an outstanding job...and I highly recommend them!
During my first two summers of Pygora goat ownership, flies were a real nuisance in my barns. I hung MANY, MANY fly tapes trying to give my goats some relief since I wasn't interested in using chemical pesticides. I was so pleased when I discovered Fly Predators! They work great, and are a natural alternative to tapes and pesticides.
http://www.premier1supplies.com/ 2007 will be my first year using Premier 1’s ElectroNet portable electric fencing. I’m very excited about the possibility of easily rotating pasture and grazing areas for my Pygoras. I’ll let you know how it works out…
