Thought you could use a laugh....


My DD tells me she had a dream that "Sheepgirl" came down and dropped off a Texel to us.

I beginning to think we have BYH and sheep on the brain. How can I get the sheep I want without more land? So far there is 4 oops 5 other breeds of sheep I'd like to have. See, that is what's so hard about sheep.

Which breeds do you like?

Well... I love sheepgirls sheep..so one day maybe I'll have one. I like the icelandic, the scottish black face, katahdin, suffolk, shetlands, of course the jacobs, and ... any thing black/white. Of course there are others that I think are soo cool. That's the trouble with sheep... too much variety.

Well last night I vaccinated Ciqala for CD/T and she started getting 1/2 lb of grain. I wanted to have my mom take pictures of it so I brought Ciqala up to the garage (since it was dark out) but my mom complained it was too cold. So I brought Ciqala over to the porch and I got her to go up the steps because I wanted her to look through the living room window and scare my mom But my mom heard Ciqala's hooves and she opened the door and she let us come in the house! I took pictures My mom is crazyyyy letting a 200 lb sheep in the house. I was surprised though, she didn't pee or poop anywhere! Pics will come tonight (except for the vaccinating part because they still didn't turn out good ) and if it's nice & sunny tomorrow afternoon, I will do a vaccination pictorial with Hank as my model.

Sorry I didn't upload the photo last night, but here it is tonight

The cat's name is Sophie, I found her 2 yrs ago in my neighbor's barn stuck between two barrels. She was stuck there for a couple days according to my neighbor (she had been meowing the entire time). She was about 4 wks old and we bottle fed her and she was a nice cat. But within the last year or so she has turned into such a (female dog), if you even touch her she hisses at you and smacks you with her paw. Makes nail trimming a PITA, so we just got her one of those claw boards. Seems to be working so far. If you do catch her, you can hold her and stretch her out (like this) and she seems to be okay. But only for like 3 min max.

I also took a bunch of pictures of my sheep (~230) tonight so I will be uploading a select few (okay, who am I kidding? it's going to be like 15 like usual lol), probably on my lambing thread.

Orphan kittens are all PITA. All of our " house cats" started off as orphans...Not a one of them is a nice cat.

Yep, orphan kitties are not nice creatures at all lol. I hope my Claire kitty doesn't turn out like that. I put her on the momma kitty we had inside with her kittens so she wasn't bottle fed by us, so I'm hoping she turns out okay. She's really great and so personable and friendly and not scared of anything. When the dogs come in from going to the bathroom, they get a treat and she thinks she should get one, too.

All the cats outside--the friendly ones at least--are all really nice and love to be scratched and pet and loved on. None of them are mean, except to each other lol.
