Snowed here yesterday and some flurries this morning at breakfast. More snow in the forecast for tomorrow, all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I am so ready for winter to be over with!
Days are longer so getting more done. Hahaha. There's always something to get done. :)
See ya all...
It's not easy getting started! :)
I'm with you - I am not much for sharing personal stuffs online, but I have found this site to be very comfortable.
Lol - and girl, welcome to the club (we are the only two members right now) that cut the wood by hand with a handsaw!
Baby steps. Keep...
The other thing not mentioned is that it's best to have two LGD. They work best as a team.
Can the current 5 dogs you have be outside around/near your smaller animals during the day to protect them?
Are the animals secured at night time? They may not need dogs out at night time, if they have...
Are and DH feeling well enough to process Eva? (I hope so!)
Did help arrive to help with processing? (I hope so!)
Hope you guys start feeling better.
*hugs*
Hauling gallons of water, multiple trips, to the cows - great exercise! And you know the cattle pasture is the one FURTHEST away! Thank goodness I didn't get pigs before winter. THEIR pasture is even further away!
Coffee was great! Thank you! I'll make some for everyone tomorrow. And some...
Congrats on the new addition!
With the super cold weather, some of my animals are eating WAY less than they normally would. Drinking less too. I keep an eye on all and make sure there is movement. I encourage all to go outside daily. The ducks get a pass when it's negative and single digit...
Lol - Silver Diner was calling me yesterday. Something from memories of the past, when I lived near civilization, reminded me of a skillet that Silver Diner use to make special for me...
Sausage
Scrambled eggs
Fried potatoes
Cream gravy
I added a gluten free toasted bagel in pieces and so...
My Prys eat everything! They've never left food in their bowls. I feed twice a day and sometimes give them a snack.
I know they had food issues and were underfed at their previous home.
I sometimes take the dogs for a walk (on leash) or let them run in an empty pasture...so they are "off...
Could I get a cup of HOT coffee please?
It's been more than a week and I am still trying to thaw frozen pipes! And I don't have a hair dryer. :( Plumber didn't think to insulate the drainage pipe that goes outside... and it froze. Inside and outside. When one pipe freezes, the ones next to...
At 9 months old, they are still puppies and have lots of energy. :)
Do they have a chance to be "off duty" and run and play and burn off the energy?
Are they getting enough to eat?
Do they have variety in their day?
Where do they spend their day? In a kennel? On a leash? In a pasture...
The two GP I adopted use to (some of this I saw with my own eyes) go through the trash, clear the kitchen counters, eat everything, fought viciously with each other drawing blood, and were unruly/unmanageable.
Many things contributed to this behavior. In their case, the biggest one was HUNGER...
If this was my situation, I would try to get another goat immediately.
She's lonely - and seeks you/DH out for companionship.
My ducks and my dogs will visit the other species of animals here, but are not into spending time with them. I don't have any cats here.
