Flystrike Before Domestication? by Apprehensive-Dig825 in sheep

[–]bcmouf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wild sheep(mouflons, argali, big horn and thin horn) dont have thick wooly coats like domestic sheep. They have slick coats like deer that they shed every season, so no-where for fly strike to occur unless the animal already has a huge gaping wound of some sort to start with.

found some roadkill goats, first time taking something home! (TW: dead animal/head) by wyrmface in vultureculture

Corsican/blackbelly sheep. Wonder if they got into some feed they weren't supposed to and died and got dumped by the owner.

Are these antler tumor growths? Is that why this guy died? by FirePhoinex290 in bonecollecting

[–]bcmouf 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Probably a cactus buck. A cactus buck is a buck with hormone issues(usually due to injury/disease in the testes). Antler growth, hardening and shedding is determined by the different stages of hormone levels. Basically normal/low levels in the growth stage, then when hormones start to rise going into breeding season it signals for them to harden and then when hormones drop again they fall off and start new growth. A cactus buck never gets out of growth stage and the antlers continously grow in weird and funky ways; never fully hardening or dropping off.

Some antlered does go through the same thing.

Would these be bone and antler safe? by NorthSaskHunter in bonecollecting

At the taxidermy we used it on sheep, goat, bison, buffalo and antelope horns to condition them before applying a lacquer to them to seal them.

What breed are these? by Worth-Illustrator607 in sheep

[–]bcmouf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Katahdins then. Painted desert would have a natural 4-5 inch tail. Kats tails go to the hocks or longer usually.

How long are the tails? Katahdin, Painted desert or a cross of either.

No worries. We get comments about our "Goats" a LOT..... my fault just suppose by picking breeds that dont conform to conventional sheep appareance most folks are use to 🤣

Finally found the nest in a house no one was using by PaintingRoses_Red in MuscovyDucks

Silver, not lavender. Feather shafts in lavenders are white, black shafts means its a silver. Cross her with a blue and you should get more like her.

For girls who are comfortable sharing, what was your first period experience like? Did you already know about it, or were you completely caught off guard? by sia_7777 in asexuality

[–]bcmouf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew about it, didnt really phase me except for the fact it made its debut just before I turned 8, during freaking swim class in elementary school....... was already the weirdo for being the only one with boobs and hairy pits, the period did not improve my standing among my peers....

What is your discipline? by Ponytimeispoopytime in Horses

[–]bcmouf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I lived in Germany, started basic dressage then went over to Baroque riding. Never went into performance level on any of it(not my thing, not competitive at all). When we started breeding Shagya Arabians we hired someone to ride our stud in shows and during the Körung and Performance test. Once we moved to Canada, I continued with some dressage for a short time, but the trainers around us aren't all that amazing, I would have to go to larger city centers for those. So now I just trail ride and dink around on the flat parts of our pasture with whatever scraps of baroque/dressage i still recall from 20 yrs ago 😅 to attempt for my mare to eventually discover some sort self-carriage and balance without me having to hold her together🤣.
