Pendergrass Ranch - Big changes!

[Pearce Pastures]

Weird how specific an allergy/intolerance can me, right? Regular eggs fine, but duck eggs, not happening.

It took me forever to figure out I have a reaction to cow dairy fat. Not the lactose, it is the fat, and turns out that it isn't that uncommon (people say lactose intolerance when it is sometimes something other than the sugar in the milk). And it is just cow milk. So so so annoying. Pizza? Coffee cream? Ice cream? Butter? Regular yogurt? NOPE!

But I am lucky enough to not throw up from it, just get other stuff going on

Oh I had that other stuff going on as well I almost had a few accidents and I spent most of my time on the toilet with a pot in my lap! Lol!

Can't wait for tomorrow. I will feel better.

 

[Pearce Pastures]

Oh, that is the worst! I hope you do feel better tomorrow. Sorry you have to get rid of them though--they are cute but if they have no purpose, it is hard to have a cause to keep them.

I have a good friend who was selling me 6 chicks she hatched but we are going to trade the beige mutt duck for the 6 chicks now. She has a ton of ducks and wants the green eggs that this one lays.

Another friend might be taking the trio of Cayuga. Possibly to resell but they will all go to good homes. I do love the ducks.

Can I please get a break?


That effing goat is back in my pasture. Mama goat had broken through her stall door to get to this goat and fight with it. This is a Toggenburg vs my little goats. I managed to wrangle mama and put her back with her babies. I then threw some alfalfa out to get the other 3 into their stall.

Had a totally break down on the phone with Drew. Thankfully he is on his way home because I am way too sick to deal with this darn goat. I also called Animal control and hopefully they will be coming out soon. I am not dealing with the neighbors anymore. Any animal that comes over here is leaving with animal control. They obviously dont' care to contain their animals so they don't deserve them.

Yeesh, what is with your neighbors? I hope they confiscate it and you don't have to deal with it anymore (doesn't sound like they would even know it was gone).

Well my fantastic fiance drove an hour home from work, caught it, tied it up. Neighbors were yelling at us for being assholes, said "She has never hurt anything...waaa waaa waaa". We just said "Talk to Animal Control".

AC is awesome. I really love these guys. They came, caught it, loaded it up, and are talking to the owners now. AC said they will get 10 days to pick it up and pay the fee.


I tried to be reasonable but I'm not in the business of coddling adults.

Good for you! Returning her after one escapade into your property is neighborly, but after that, why not just put her down for dinner???......at least I think that would have been fair.....

What a fiance! My DH would have let me deal until he got home.....

Well I called him crying hysterically because I just really do not have the strength right now. My health is so all over the place. Dealing with an uncatchable goat is not something I could have physically done right now.

Had a weird dream about one of my NDs.

She had quads and one of them was HUGE. It had 5 foot long legs! Everyone here said "oh that's normal...".
