Well, after pushing out 9 kiddos in 20 years I’m having pelvic floor surgery and the back vaginal wall fixed as well as a bladder sling. 😂 So I’m freaking out. I won’t be able to do much for 4-6 weeks. My husband blew his knee and has no ACL- he needs surgery too!

Yes! We got him over the hump! We gave him a couple of doses of antibiotics and have been bottle feeding him- he’s secluded to our lambing stall right now and he’s been eating like a champ! We tried originally to put him back out with mama after a day or two and getting better but trying to...

I have Corrid but I don’t think hes going to make it. His eyes are bulging and he can’t even sit up. Yes we have free range chickens but he wasn’t nursing properly from the getgo. It could definitely be coxi or ecoli as a neighbor said he’s dealt with as well. He was hunched with his tail...

I would like to add that- this is all way worse than I imagined. We’ve entered into a black hole we didn’t know existed here and it’s pretty scary. Apparently the FDA has halted all livestock feed with antibiotics and you have to get a vet prescription to get any at all as of 2 years ago. On...

So, he was following her around and interested in nursing but couldn’t keep a suction. I haven’t hardly been able to get anything down him today and I fear he’s dying fast. He had blood in his stool this morning and was weak- I moved him to the stall but he refuses to take any fluids. My...

I have not yet but I can- an apparently all the large livestock vets have up and just shut down!!! 😳 Not only that but you can’t even get antibiotics at the feed stores without a prescription from a vet! The closest one is like 3 hours away!!! I did move him into a stall until my husband gets...

I posted a thread in The cattle and calves but it’s escalated since then. My calf is 48 hours old and he was not nursing well and now has blood in his stool and is lethargic. We gave him vitamins yesterday but I suspect we need to give him antibiotics…

Awe thank you!

Hi! So we had a little bullock day before yesterday. I got there just after she had him and he seemed great- mama was chewing on the placenta and baby wasn’t in distress. He got up and went to mama when I went to look and see his sex so they bonded beautifully. Corinne was being a good mama and...

Oh man I haven’t been there in a while… 😂

Hi everyone, my name is Jyn! I have a small family farm in the West hills of Oregon with my husband and 8 kids. My 9th and eldest daughter lives nearby and is getting married next year but everyone else is still home. We currently have about 9 cows (5 bulls 3 cows and 1 heifer) most who are...

Okay hi! My name is Jyn, I’m a married mama of 9 living in the pacific NW. Here’s my last family portrait with my in-laws. I’m on the far right looking stiff because I was also the photographer running back and forth because my remote wasn’t initiating. 😂 The black and white is my family with...
