RE: [pyrnet] Re: Pigment change



My only problem with that idea is that I have to remove it during the day, or one of my goats will eat it all.  She's locked up at night, and the dogs get to eat in peace.

Tom how about one of those big round basins that look like a wash tub you could put a stake in the ground and use a threaded U bolt through the handle so they cant drag it off or tip it.I'm a jack of all trades but a master of none .But it might work

I learn every day from this group!  I haven't had this problem, but will
keep an eye on my dogs.

Want to hear a bad mama story?  I had put a Blitz "demand" feeder in the
field with the goats and dogs with good quality food for my Pyr puppies.
The male has a St. Bernard-like head (won't win any conformation prizes) and
is tall and long.  I worried about him, wanting to make sure he got enough
food, because he seemed to be losing weight.  It took me a week to realize
that his head had grown enough that he couldn't get it in the feeder door.
I felt REALLY bad!

I've used steel bowls, but haven't found any that were heavy or inconvenient
enough to keep the female from picking it up, food and all, and running
around with it.  Right now, I'm using a container that's intended to hold a
50-pound salt block.  The female still takes it away, but it's a little
harder.  Ideas?
