HankTheTank and Ownedby3alpacas Journal

I'm from New York, I think about two-ish hours away from Lake George. I worked at Springhill Farm, a dairy goat/beef cow farm. Towards the end they didn't really need me anyway since most of the goats had left, but I really didn't want to go. I can't even go to 4-H meetings any more, and I won't see my friend Faith, since the only time I did see her was at the barn. She can't keep her goat at her house, so she keeps Penny at Springhill. It's really cute to see an enormous nubian doe following this tiny fourth grader like a big puppy

Ahhh. I am a teacher in Indiana and we are by a Lake George/Six Flags is about an hour away/ we have a public park where some of our high schoolers and 4Hers tend goats and chickens. Thought how weird would that be....

 

[HankTheTank]

That would've been cool! I'd like to meet another BYHer someday, even though I can't make it to Herdstock

 

[Straw Hat Kikos]

Yeah there are a few BYH members I would enjoy meeting too. Whats Herdstock?

That's really cool, but can't do it.

Now that HankTheTank doesn't have a job anymore I'm stuck at home with her ALL DAY. The highest bidder can have her........she comes with 3 very cute goats, and maybe an amp and a jar of Nutella.

The alpacas may be finding a new home. I haven't had a job in over a year and so far I haven't had any luck finding another, so i'm running out of money to keep them. But i contacted a llama and alpaca 4-H in the area and we may be able to work out a free lease with one of the members. That way the alpacas are cared for, maybe get to go to some shows, get some much needed training, and i don't have to lose them entirely. i really hope someone is interested in it.

The bloodhound went to the vet yesterday and won't be coming home until Tuesday. He had surgery to remove an object that he has swallowed. It was a rock in a sock....not sure how he managed that. And he got neutered while he was out too, which is a good thing. But i've missed my puppy and he needs to come back home. Now.

 

[HankTheTank]

Aw, gee thanks! Nice to know you're happy to have me around.....

As for Freddie's sock/rock adventures, just be glad he wasn't eating underwear again. Imagine explaining THAT to the vet

News Flash- Yogi Bear, the mouse who's been pursuing a life of crime in our kitchen for several months now, has been apprehended and is now in custody. When questioned, the perpetrator refused to make a statement (I believe he's waiting for his lawyer), though he is sticking his little nose through the bars in such a way that we believe him to be quite upset (understandably so, I might add). As it is now 11:30 at night, the hooligan will remain in his cell until morning, when he will be taken far away, spun in circles, therefore confusing his sense of direction, and released. We hope to have seen the last of the shenanigans of this notorious criminal, the infamous "Yogi Bear". Citizens of this house, our bread is now safe!




Yes, we named a mouse Yogi Bear

I'll take her- does she eat much?

So sorry to hear about your alpacas. I hope y'all get a job soon.
