    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Absolutely agree on evolution. Not only is there no proof that can point only to evolution there are problems that even have atheistic scientists wanting to question the hypothesis of evolution. Such as the lack of transitionary fossils and chitin in bugs and algae. It’s good to see someone...

    This crazy girl is getting sheep!

    Exactly! I’m looking forward to seeing what I can do with this wool. Of course, after I make your sweater 😉

    This crazy girl is getting sheep!

    The friend who has helped us with goat hooves before knows how to shear sheep and is willing to help! She uses dog clippers too lol. When my extra large goat had hoof problems and I couldn’t even get the hoof shears to cut them she was really helpful. I know she’ll treat my animals well.

    Okay, this will be a stupid question, to keep them in the shade do I have to keep them locked up or will they stay in the shade by themselves?

    I hoped to eventually shear by myself, I’ve just never seen it done in person before and was hoping to watch someone. If I can’t get a shearer myself and YouTube it is!

    This crazy girl is getting sheep!

    Did my first hoof trim, managed to go too close and she bled a little bit. I felt so bad! Right now it’s getting warm, so about time to shear. They were panting and stretched out yesterday, at only 65, worried me a bit! The wool is probably only the length of my fingers before it’s stretched...

    My dog has had two previous owners, one used him for breeding and the next one neutered him. He’s not a healthy dog. While he has a good temperament he is not very trainable. Love him, but he definitely shouldn’t have had puppies. People’s ignorance and greed is really a shame.

    Gunky eyes in sheep

    Still has gunk in her eyes. They all do. I’m guessing it’s just a sheep thing. One of my goats was wheezing yesterday and junky but they’ve been introduced for a while, I don’t suspect it’s the same thing. Perhaps just the wool brushes the eyes or allergies?

    I am so sorry Baymule! He was such a good boy for your flock and I know you were the absolute best caretaker.

    Hmm, let’s see. I think one of the last times I had to add pea pickin’ to a bless your heart was when a friends boyfriend decided to scream at her. That simply does not fly around me. He darn near flew, but the screaming didn’t.

    Ahh yes, they’re already learning to be stinkers🤣. One likes a particular spot on her back scratched and the other is still a little unsure. I love it.

    This crazy girl is getting sheep!

    The sheep are great but their owner is a bit busy! The two bigger gals love chin scratches and the one is learning to like neck rubs. Yay. The skittish one is gaining weight, so that’s good. They took a few introductions to the goats but now they seem to just not care each other exist...which is...

    Speaking of the Bible, tonight’s verses were in proverbs 26:23-27. Thought this group might enjoy that. Goodnight y’all.

    Psalm 50:14 Let thankfulness be your sacrifice to God, and keep your vows made to the Most High. It’s amazing to me how great the Bible considers thankfulness to be, and how little we practice it.

    Good morning. Up at 5:30, brain didn’t come online until 6:00. Which makes me wonder why I didn’t sleep the extra half hour, I would have been just as productive if not more so. I know 5:30 is late sleeping for most of you though🤣. I’m off to feeding and then I need to study for a test/quiz...

    Well y’all, I need a sheep chair🤣. Tried to rump a sheep for the first time today, yikes. Failure. Ended up doing what I was doing while straddling the ewe. These girls are also going to double in size. Holy ewe! Sheep 1 shortcake 0 I’m going to see if I can look back through Baymules’...

    Gunky eyes in sheep

    Alright. New sheep (had them one week) has green gunk around her eyes and a little in her nose. What’s my treatment? I believe I have vetrycin ointment, I have vet RX. Do I use those or something else? Natural treatment is better.

    Only the small one has eaten them so far. She turns away so the others don’t see.🤣 crazy sheep. The others should discover here shortly, Do you think the professor will accept “my sheep ate my homework” as a valid excuse for late homework? Asking for a friend of course. I think I’ve discovered...

    This crazy girl is getting sheep!

    The chonkiest one will come up and smell strangers pretty quickly. The middle one used my hand to rub her face while I was on the other side of the fence. The smallest is most skittish, but she almost smelled me this morning. I was trying to introduce my dog. Let them smell him through the...
