Good Start

What a way to start this soaking rainy day. 14# ewe lamb 45min at least later 9# ram I pulled on a upside down hoof and felt 1" inside found 2nd hoof pulled gently and upside down backwards boy showed up. Figures it was a goofy boy not knowing which way to join us. Oh my goodness sorry guys for wisecracking. Lambs are up and cleaned off and hunting milk duds ;) gym rescheduled for tomorrow morning glad I stayed just didn't feel best about no 2nd lamb. Easiest intervention I ve had this year and maybe unnecessary but over now. Think a nap is in order . Happy 24th to my oldest R. More on her later.

    1. I wish I could have a nap. Just spent 1/2 hour on the phone arranging LN's next sewing schedule for her 4-H contest. It's competition sewing so out of my skills. I can sew an outfit but fancy? Nope.

  2. Sounds like it was a darned good idea you followed your instinct and stayed to help that last little guy make his entrance in good shape! (We all need to learn to pay attention to our basic instincts more . . . at least I know *I* do!)

    1. Never ceases to amaze me. I get a "high" after witnessing births like that. People that aren't exposed to this life think I'm nuts.
