The sheep who bo...My gosh, that lamb is beautiful! The sheep who board here will be going home soon, as the pasture is almost depleted... I expect them to leave this week. We did not get three cuttings of hay here this year, either... not enough rain. <br /><br />We have a mystery limper as well, her owner came by the other night to catch her and we both looked and felt... (I held the flashlight) and could find nothing to explain the limp. I will feel better when she is home and in a stall where they can watch her. <br /><br />Oh, and Michelle, all but seven of the hens still here are ancient... and those seven, a year old, are hiding eggs or simply not laying. I am doing WELL to get four eggs a day, and today, I fear it will only be three. This is it for me, when the old girls are gone, the seven young ones will go to a friend to live out their days. <br /><br />Mary Annhttp://www.calamityacres.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-21875765941439946062022-08-20T21:12:47.797-07:002022-08-20T21:12:47.797-07:00A little late in writing!

Add in additional fuel costs, and what is available, mostly hauled in from Eastern Oregon or farther, is sky high.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-26695099938467668052022-08-13T05:28:30.433-07:002022-08-13T05:28:30.433-07:00Foodstuffs, goodstuffs!

We haven't spoken with the one actual farmer in our area (you know we're not in "farm country!") but I do know we've been dry again. Not as bad as last year but our garden has required a lot of watering. Your sheep always look to be very healthy which is a testament to the wonderful care you give them.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.com
