    Jennifer Hinkle - Here's my journal about my sheep and rabbits.

    Thank you did not know about posting multiple pics in same post. Lone survivor thinks she's a sheep. She sleeps and lives with them. She got attacked by something and all we found was feathers. We didnt see her for a few days and then we found her in the sheep house with the sheep. She hardly...
