Thanks y'all. I can't believe my beautiful girl is gone, but she is. I am giving Buford lots of extra attention, he is missing her so bad.

I went to the PA, maybe I'm starting to like him a little bit. :lol: My groin has been painful and I finally figured out why, went to the PA for confirmation of my suspicions. Yup, in addition to tearing up my back, I also gave myself a hernia. He has referred me to a surgeon. I called the...

I am so sorry that your beloved has gone. Grief runs deep and I totally understand the family need for privacy. My heart goes out to you and your family.

Max got his hooves trimmed today. He was a good boy, stood well and didn't fidget or fuss.

It's been nuts here. Ewes having lambs, final count is 41 lambs with 2 ewes still to lamb. Lost 3 lambs, wound up with 5 bottle babies. Worms hit hard, even with administering worm medicine, I lost 3 ewes to internal parasites. Granny died too, to bloat. She was one of my favorites. She was fine...

On my second cup of coffee. It's been a whirlwind around here! I've had my 2 youngest granddaughters all week, I take them to my sister's tomorrow after church to meet their parents and give them back. We've had lots of fun. I have another bottle lamb, 2 orphans (their mom died) and I'm trying...

I don’t have THAT kind of Poop Soup! I get Poop Soup in the winter when it rains for weeks. And weeks. Since we are in drought, I’d welcome some Poop Soup.

I have Poop Soup season.

Oh I can say it and a whole more, just trying to be polite here! :lol:

Things went well at the vet clinic with Buford. Those silly people took him from me, I questioned that. They reassured me that livestock guardians guard the owner and Buford would do better if I wasn’t in the room. Yeah, right. I smiled and let them take him. They came back pronto, he was in a...

Granny, way too fat, huge, grossly obese, I’ve been worried about her. When I got home yesterday from Houston, Granny was in crisis. A big lamb was stuck in the exit door. I ran in and changed clothes, got a rope, halter, towel, long full arm gloves and ran to help her. She ran. I couldn’t...

She finally decided to take care of her baby. Now she is being a good mom. Yesterday was insane, even by my standards. Came home from Houston to a ewe that had a baby stuck in the exit door. I’ll post pictures later and the rest of the story!

Going for my second cup of coffee. I got caught up on my farm thread, lots of lambs being born! Count is 33 now. I have to take Buford to a vet clinic in Houston today, to meet a lovely female Anatolian. The vet has been testing her hormone levels daily to see what day she would be receptive...

Whew! I've been crazy busy! It's a fog whiteout, I have to leave a 9 AM to take Buford to a vet clinic in Houston for either an AI collection or a breeding with a female Anatolian in heat. He usually shuts down and is a zombie when I take him away from the farm, so I hope he is interested enough...

31 lambs until yesterday morning…… Patches had a single, a white ram lamb. So Sunshine and Parches stay another year. I was out of jugs, so I put Patches in with her twin sister Sunshine. Lamb count 32. While I was getting Patches and her baby situated, I heard a baby crying. I went to...
