And... this afternoon he blew it. Came back from laundromat and sheep were making distressed bleets. Also some snarl yelps from Hera like she was getting knocked into. Leo was dashing back and forth thru flock. He had Oreo, Socks, and Aria separated off. Socks was limping a little on left hind...

When he had to drag heavy basket full of wet laundry about 200ft to the car. 🤣

Sitting at the laundromat... Alexander tried to load every comforter we own into washer and wash them. It stripped out the gears which were already on last gasps. It lasted ~7 years which isn't bad now a days.

We are still working on managing puppy zoomies in the morning. Best routine so far is to have house dog out in home acre so he can distract Leo then let sheep out. If I have time walking Leo farther into pasture singing the Sheep, Sheep come out works. Otherwise he herds them back into night...

This weekend we played musical animal pens which included letting Leo out of solitary since I fixed the south paddock fence I thought... Leo found another section and invited himself into north paddock with sheep. He stayed there though! Including overnight when sheep were locked up but LGD were...

We investigated a 3zone mini split system. They would have same issue of condensate inside and filtration clogging as the crap standard system. We would also need to route line sets thru new holes in walls. The heat pump package unit will be routed into the same pair of ducts built into house...

Sigh...sun burned even though I slathered on sunscreen, wore a big rimmed hat, and worked in partial shade. Joy of pale skinned Scots heritage. I marinated the kids in same sunscreen and they are not even pink.

🤞 Hope she can keep them a little longer!

I took littles to McDonald's for lunch. Then we did a Home Depot run for supplies. I'm working on water flow while ground is still soft. Thankfully it's in the shade.

This morning Cassandra helped me play musical animals. Leo is back with flock and Snickers is in the ram pen by himself. He wasn't happy but a bribe of 2 scoops of grain and flake of hay to himself was appreciated. All the ewes will be on south pen side. Leo is being good around the babies...

There was a 1year warranty on the installation and we discovered it 18months in. The biggest issue is inside unit can not handle our humid and very dusty environment. Homeowners denied it because it was "improper design". 🤬 Current plan is to fix floor and put a package unit outside so no...

First day of 90degree temperatures and the AC is not keeping up. Can't wait to get it replaced!

Okay! Final version is submitted for grading.

Doubting my notes on when I put Aria back with Snickers. My notes say Feb 24th which gives July 21st due date. This doesn't look like 2 months to go... May 5th daytime Tonight

Hi :welcome Hopefully some one with goats will chime in on your buck's issues. @rachels.haven @Alaskan @frustratedearthmother

Figured out why the house is so quiet. Apparently frog catching is full contact sport. That's our driveway. :lol:

@secuono The page has two order forms. Top form says Canada. The second form says Nebraska. Maybe it's a recent new lab location? My codon blood tests went to Nebraska lab. 🤷‍♀️

Neogene has genetic testing. Is this the same? Samples ship to Nebraska and they can do it off blood card vs tissue sample. https://www.neogen.com/categories/parentage/sheep-parentage-160-snp-global/

Contractors got 2 hours of work done before lightning got within 10miles. Hopefully it blows thru soon!

I realized why the cost per pound seemed so high! Oreo is nursing Coconut as well. :) If I included her pounds gain it drops down to $0.75. Still triple the example but they were dry lotted eating hay all of April due to the dog attacks.
