Blossom: A Nubian’s Story

[B&B Happy goats]

If you have to find her a pet home, and your willing to meet me some where between your home and mine here in florida...i will give her queen status with the three NG i have here, ....i miss having nubians. ...hopefully everything will work out well for her., keep your chin up, she wouldn't have made it this far without you and your compassion. ...hugs to you and miss Blossom

I don't envy what you are going through but I do admire what you are doing to get to where you need to be.

My girl keeps favoring her feet and she seems to have little stamina as far as weak legs. I think she’s just been through too much. We have been working on her feet weekly to make slow changes but she’s just not improving. Made the decision this morning that we won’t stress her with a pregnancy. Her test results still aren’t back. Doesn’t matter. Blossom will be going to a pet home. She needs to have a quality life, not live alone in quarantine. My heart is breaking but she deserves more.

My offer is still on the table....she has a home here if you can't find one close to you .....i feel so badly for you having to make such a hard decision. I do realize that your best options are close to your home and her current environment, let alone the drive to florida for her..... but, if you can't find her someone to love her as much as you do....the offer still stands...she would have QUEEN status here. Hugs to you and blossom

Thank you! We have a local lead where I could visit her. I’ll keep you posted.

When I let an animal go, I really have no further desire to visit them... Maybe just me? I figure it's hard on me and may be hard on the animal. Besides that, with all that you do, when would you find time to visit? I mean, I can't see where you have any free time as it stands now... Hope you find her a great new forever home.

I visit a lot of animals (dogs and goats) that we have sold. Over that last month I was at 2 farms that have our goats and dogs, will be visiting another this weekend. The animals do fine. The dogs always remember us, but are content and are fine.
Of course, all these people are pretty awesome owners and take fantastic care of their animals. I love the visits and it makes me happy to see animals that I bred and birthed excel at their farms. Of course, the owners are now close family friends, so there is that…

@Wehner Homestead I think you have done an amazing job with your girl. I think you are making the right choice, though it is a hard one. Hugs to you. You saved that goat and gave her a better life. I hope she finds the perfect home.

We were weighing the Lamancha girls this evening so we put Blossom on the scale...she’s a hefty 173## from her 98# when we got her! Lol


Mooommmmm!!!!

She rarely stands all the way up. There is a crack in one hoof. She’s just been through so much. I’m hoping that she will do better with some more space and not just eating all the time.
