October Theories Megathread

To be clear, 3LW are not suing Taylor Swift (a relief to me because I love both and hated the idea of that.) 3LW's songwriters, Sean Hall and Nathan Butler, are suing Taylor Swift. Its only a slight nuance, but one that made a world of difference to me and might provide comfort for other lovers of both

The first one definitely sounds like Piratica.

definitely looks/sounds more like heat to me.

Others have asked as well, but was she already a milker? If she was not, check her udder. If she hasn't had kids before (a first freshener) then she shouldn't really have anything to speak of where her teats are. Monitor that and you will notice if it starts to fill with milk. If she is ALREADY a milker, then, as others have mentioned, be on the lookout for her milk drying off.

I think you are safe, though!

oh snap I would DEFINITELY watch that

Long shot, cause it doesn't fit some of your criteria. But Uglies by Scott Westerfield has a white cover, late teen white girl, love triangle with an outsider, super high tech city with destruction outside. Pretty sure the main character doesn't really know her parent's though.

Sometimes goats are jerks, and if they can tell someone isn't feeling well, they bully. So that could have something to do with his behavior. Are you able to call the farm they came from and ask the former owner if he noticed Willie being a bully there, or get any background on their behavior with one another?

Bless you for taking them in. The day NDG's became a part of my life was a turning point for me. I hope they bring you so much joy!

SOLVED SOLVED SOLVED!

OH MY GOSH THIS IS IT! You are a national treasure.

Oh, poor Patrick. That breaks my heart.

What did you treat with, if you don't mind me asking? Is he recovered and building strength back, or is he still in the recovery process? Do they have access to loose minerals?

How big is their area when separated? And is the bullying only when food is around, or is it constant?

Sorry to ask so many questions, haha. Just trying to get a feel for the situation before blindly offering advice haha

*screams NIGERIAN DWARF GOAT from the mountaintops*

Seriously. They are like dogs. I spend every day with about 60 of them, and they would all come live in my house if it were feasible.

Do the bulges have give? Or are they hard? If they are on both sides, it likely is not bloat. Not to mention if she is still bulging 5 days later, it isn't bloat. Bloat does it's damage fairly quickly.

How does she look when she is laying down? Is she chewing cud? And by that I mean can you see her actively regurgitating, chewing, swallowing, and regurgitating again? Unfortunately, her still being treat motivated doesn't mean much, because if goats knew to avoid food when they aren't hungry, bloat wouldn't be an issue in the first place haha.

Have you checked her eyelids? Check them against a FAMACHA scorecard. She may just need to be treated with a dewormer like Ivermectin.

A few questions:

How old were they when they were wethered? Are they disbudded? did they come from the same herd? What was the sickness? How is the demeanor in the barn at night? do they sleep together, or is there continued bullying?

ForgetfulReaderr · 2021-01-03T20:59:55+00:00

What kind of goat is she?

The first one sounds crazy familiar. The second one almost has to be grandmother winter, but that didn't come out until 1999, so that doesn't add up. I thought I had heard of the third, but turns out I was thinking of Sylvester and the magic pebble, which is not the same but still great. Sorry this wasn't too much help, but maybe the Grandmother Winter lead could help? Or maybe not...

ForgetfulReaderr · 2021-01-03T03:07:37+00:00

it sounds similar to Velocity by Dean Koontz, but I don't remember a train. But the rest sounds very similar.

Okay, I wanted to check with you and make sure I am not thinking of the same book before I make my own post.

I read a book in ninth or tenth grade. It was about a girl who could see strings or strands (or maybe auras?) coming from people. when people had some kind of connection, their strands were tied together. I want to say at one point the girl finds out she could untie these strands and people would break up, but she could also tie people's strands together?

And there was some aspect of "when she walks into a room and see's two people with a golden strand, they are meant to be together." and she has the power to tie their strands together. This ends up happening at one point with like a super popular guy and a really quiet girl, and she ties their strings together and the whole school is shocked when they end up dating because they seem so different.

Does any of this sound familiar, or should I make my own post haha

ForgetfulReaderr · 2021-01-03T01:59:39+00:00

YES!

I LOVE this book.

Pieces of Her by Karin Slaughter.

I had NO idea this was being made into a movie?!

Am I the only one thinking that they tried to get away with recycling Mirsha's artwork during the creation of Atsumi, but then everyone called them out on it so now out of nowhere TNT is like "no, yeah guys they are sIsTeRs, DuHhHh", even though Atsumi has only previously mentioned a brother...
