In light of everything that has happened I forgot I have a show coming up.
Ruby will be making her first appearance in the ring. She's walking well but with it only being two weeks away this may be a rodeo...
I will be taking Diva, Pearl, and Morgan as milkers. Lady, Oopsie, and one more undecided junior to fill Image's spot. I may take Lyra, even though she's very pregnant.
Diva, Pearl, and Morgan will have a milk test that weekend as well.
Wow, I just saw this, I am sorry and I know how hard it is to lose one but two is just devastating. And yes, you are allowed to grieve and you are allowed to come cry on BYH, we are all here for you if you need us. I honestly think that goats are just born trying to figure out how to die so don't beat yourself up, stuff happens...
My DH is gone 4 days a week and has been for about 8 years now. I will say that it isn't the best way to have a marriage. We have been married 35 years so we have been around the block a few times, but trust me when I say that it is tough to live like this long term. I hope you both end up in the same spot sooner rather than later.
I love your Polish chickens. I have one, I have had her for a long time. I had more but for some reason the coyotes seem to like them and the Copper Marans the best. I lost 4 polish hens to that stupid coyote and about 8 Marans. And I lost both my polish roos to "stupid bird" accidents.
