Bertha didn't make it :hit. He was going to wait till this weekend to tell me but considering she was the first thing I asked about he couldnt put it off. Bertha was MY ewe . She was very big and gentle and had the most beautiful lambs. She was only 5.
On Sunday ,my dad and I had been talking about how excited we were to eventually get a ram out of her.
Apparently Monday the bloat was so bad her sides were four inches above her spine. They didn't want to worry me so they didn't tell me.

Now I sitting here blubbering like an idiot and I can't tell my room mates why because to the she was was just a sheep.



The past two week have sucked....A lot.
