What is dippity pig?

You can find pretty good deals on stock trailers on Craigslist.

I’ve been looking but they always sell quickly here…..and we’re not sure we want another trailer that won’t be used but 1-2x per year. I can either get the heavy duty gates for our 8x16 or we can build an enclosure for our 5x8

The skin part of it cleared up quickly. The squatting behavior seems a bit more sporadic now.
When we first noticed the lesion, we thought he had cut himself on a piece of tin on the run-in shelter. It wasn’t until I had a local guy out to do the castration, that I learned what it was. Yesterday he would not stop chasing my little wether so his energy level is still good.

We managed to get the fencing 95% done and functional yesterday before the rain rolled in
