*******Please Subscribe To My Blog…..It Really Helps******* CLICK HERE***Maybe This Link Will Get You To My Tick Tock Channel*** Like I said…..the errant goats are now contained in the round pen….. …..and we have a plan….. My older daughter just bought a used aluminum two-horse trailer….. It’s a gooseneck….. Her truck has a gooseneck ball-hitch in its bed already….. Where we need to take the goats would be too restrictive for my big trailer….. ….her’s will be speedy/nifty/& zippy….. Easy…

*******Maybe This Link Will Get You To My Tick Tock Channel******* By that I mean…..the surplus roosters and rabbits….. Roosters are great….. I’m a big believer that every flock of chickens should have one….. But too many roosters…..are not fun…..not fun at all….. When I have an excess of roosters…..(which I always do)….. …..I offer some to my various friends…..(who live in “Deed Restricted Communities”)….. …..If they have neighbors who are giving them a hard time (with the slight-variant-hue that…

As you already know….. One of our sows went to the butchers….. And came back in white/labeled packages….. Like anything on this farm (or in life)…..(or physics)…..any action produced creates an equal and opposite reaction….. …..oops….. …..well…..poop….. You see…..now all of the pigs have seen and figured out that if other pigs can be released from their flimsy/mud-submerged/non-roofed/horrible pens….. ……………..then why can’t they make a break for freedom…………….. And that’s just what’s been happening….. First there were only two little…

Not as easy as it looks….. (getting a piggy to market) …..it took the better part of a day to accomplish it….. …..it took a village….. We currently have about fifteen pigs…..of various ages and sizes….. We started out with four (three girls and one boy)….. …..what can I say….. …..they got along quite well….. I suggested getting them cable TV (just to give them a distraction of something else to do in the privacy of their swamp)….. …..it didn’t…

Mr. Goat went on down the road.  ***Note to world:  Do not let your arm get between the horns of a goat with an attitude.  This is what they want to do and try to do.  All it takes is one quick head jerk/your arm is wedged in the middle/one more quick head twist/& Bob’s you Uncle……………….(?)……………….Bob get out of here!!!  You had nothing to do with this………………No, you have a severely damaged &/or broken arm.  And a grinning goat….

My poor daughter is at the subject matter, yet again.  Poor thing. She didn’t make me promise this time not to post about this one………………..I may have lost some credibility with her……………………….where’s the trust?! She’s starting a new job.  A server (apparently you are not allowed to say waitress anymore…………………and I still say stewardess, and actress, and comedienne)-(liberation is not in word only—–you should see my N.O.W. pendant from the seventies—–it doubles as brass knuckles).  She’s in training.  Her attire…
