mikentexas: I have a jersey holstein cross bull calf that has a lump on his left side about the size of a small plastic football,when you push on it ,it sounds likewater sloshing,has anyone ever seen this before? May 31, 2013 22:41:46 GMT -5
fairfarmhand: Could it be the rumen? Sometimes if they are switched to pasture their rumen swells up and it sounds sloshy like water. Jun 1, 2013 8:53:20 GMT -5
fairfarmhand: I have an AVATAR now! Jun 1, 2013 8:53:39 GMT -5
nmred: ;) Jun 1, 2013 16:26:58 GMT -5
mikentexas: could be the rumen,he is 4 weeks old or there about,and he refuses a bottle and eats only hay an nibbles at calf starter,will that hurt him? or will it eventually go down and be ok?any idea? Jun 1, 2013 22:04:40 GMT -5
hadassah: I have a three week old calf that has been eating grass since she was a few days old. She may not grow as big as the others but she is alive and well! Jun 5, 2013 22:46:08 GMT -5
Tricia : Soap makers? I mixed up the lye and water yesterday afternoon and didn't make soap. Can I still use it? or is it now a weak drain cleaner? Jun 7, 2013 9:13:13 GMT -5
jerseylovinliz: It's such a delicate process when all is right I'd be scared to try it if I needed good soap. I might if I needed more bars for laundry detergent & it didn't matter so much. Jun 7, 2013 12:36:21 GMT -5
jerseylovinliz: Scientifically speaking I don't have a clue. Jun 7, 2013 12:37:24 GMT -5
mollymoo: The thing that makes lye "go bad" is absorbing CO2 from the air (it turns to sodium carbonate and which is less basic) - I'd think that after less than 24 hours, your lye would still make a good soap. Jun 7, 2013 14:11:56 GMT -5
sherrye: you can still use it. i do mine the night before. then heat to temp i want. never a problem for me. Jun 7, 2013 16:32:14 GMT -5
Tricia : Well..... I think I will try it with no essential oil. If it is a failure it's less wasted $ for the oils. If it's good I can shred it tomorrow, melt it and add oils. Phew.... Now do I really want to do this at 9pm? Sure! Thanks SO MUCH! Jun 7, 2013 19:43:43 GMT -5
jerseylovinliz: So? Did it work? What happened? Jun 8, 2013 22:55:28 GMT -5
Tricia : Well no as I crap happened here and ONCE again it didn't get made. Jeepers I know not to make soap in June. Jun 9, 2013 18:25:54 GMT -5
Lisa in N.C.: No edema, one scoop grain this am. Some average mix hay and she has tons of clover in pasture. They cans see Sookie. Thanks Jun 10, 2013 13:48:12 GMT -5
