Am I being too sensitive?

[Dage]

Also we are discussing selling out...all livestock, chickens, ducks everything...

I have moments like that... those are hard decisions to make.

wow... Hope everything is OK... Sometimes you just have to move on for whatever reason. You could always come back to it again later if that's the way you wish to go.

@Dage - Sorry, I didn't realize you were in S.A.. Yep, I bet the idea of "pet goats" is hilarious there! For some reason I thought you were in CA.. Anywho...I'm really sorry for everything you're going through with your sweet girl. Hopefully, it will work out okay for you, soon.

yes! If it walks or breathes, its edible! Ant butts, monkeys, river turtles, you name it...

I'm just trying to wrap my head around ant butts lunch.
I have been to a few countries now and have indeed noticed that dogs are generally treated differently than here in the states. They kinda fend for themselves.

Lol, people here, (southern USA) eat snapping turtles, they are basically mud turtles, I would imagine a river turtle would be better, certainly cleaner!

@Dage, why are you considering selling out? I know times come along when you have to make hard decisions but I hope you can keep your farm!

We saw a thing on tv where they were eating hamsters in S.A.. YUCK! I mean, I guess they taste a bit like rabbit (?), but they're so tiny. Why even bother? ...And, of course, my DD was like "Those people are sick! How can anyone EAT a hamster?" Sweet child, she thinks Capybara are overgrown Guinea pigs. She actually wants one for a pet. Okay, she pretty much wants one of EVERYTHING for a pet. Or 2 would be twice as nice. She really does NOT want to eat anything I kill (like the chickens I plan to get soon for meat). Bless her heart, she loves animals sooo much. Also, her long-held plan to be a vet has flown. She has realized she could never deal with the hard part of the job (death). Fortunately, at 14 she still has plenty of time to think of another career. Maybe she'll be an artist, she's very talented. Takes after DH, as do the boys, I can't draw convincing stick people!

We are considering moving out of the existing country we are in. If we don´t I may be able to keep them. YAHWEH leads.
