Hey All!


Sorry i haven't posted in a while alot has been going on with sheep shearing school, two jobs,moving again! etc...All the animals are doing good (fat and happy) like always!!!SHeep shearing school was awesome its just when i get a chance to buy shears i will be set. I met a few new freinds which was nice because not many people want to farm and when you meet some one that does it's like holly cow because you feel like your the only one! But besides with that living with Mrs. Hartung is nice because i'm not with my family and we get along alot better and better yet i'm with my animals 24/7....Well im out for now

A good morning



Well i walked up to my animals from my aunts when i woke up the smorning and i had coffee with Mrs. Hartung. She use to be really mean but she is not that bad anymore i geuss i straighnted her out when i yelled at her saying she was going to put her ewe to sleep because she was to rowdy meaning she was wild. But i don't have any that breed so i need her ewe to make me some baby's so the sheep is pretty much mine because i think i'm the only one that cares for her. Mrs.h got her at Durham Valley Feed and Seed. But i think i'm going to by a southdown/jacob mix only because i can't find a pure breed and so Cladia's parents don't send her to the slaughter house so that's how that goes. Well i have no work after school today so i'm going to work on putting up my fence at mrs. h well have a great day!

My first best friend




Well this post is about my dog Cheyenne who past away saturday afternoon. She was on of my first best friends i got her shortly when i moved in the house on Raubsville R.d by the corner store where Cheyenne grew up. I love her so much and it's hard to take in that she left me. She was there through my parents devorce, my grandfathers death and the list goes on and it's the hardest when your holden there head in the vets office and they give her a relaxiant and she just fell right to the table it killed me because she was still with it she was to to weak to move and then they gave her the last shot and it was horrible i can't even think about it. Well i have to get some rest here are the pictures when we pulled in the vet office one of the hardest thing of my life.

Crazy,crazy



Sorry i haven't kept ya'll posted i went home and found my bunnie made a nest and i lookied in it and she had a litter of seven baby's. I was so happy to see that and then i noticed she had a calico one! Had neat is it that there only two days old or so. And the bigger critters are doing good i've been trying to find a good pair a scissors to cut my goats mo-hair and i did there i tanium and they work great so i'm pleased with that. I saw my little buck jumping on her in november of 07 so she should be do anytime but i think that she might not be and i'm upset because i could use a goat kid to keep me out of trouble.lol j.k but i just dont think she is not only because i sheared alot of her and she dosen't seem so big and maybe she is but is very small but maybe there is that chance it's really small. Well i'm going to get some sleep tommrow will be a day of school, sheep, and work.

The first move!


Well how are we dong on this fine sunday after noon. Well there is alot of things to tell about me and my critters. Well the easiest to get up the hill to mrs.hartungs would have been bucky because he followed me right up as for the rest i had to drag them up the hill and it was fun except my one sheep dolly she was so heavy i would say 250 pds.! She is a fat as for chesnut but back to her she had to be lift to get up the hill she had my for arms strong it felt good. THen the goats i carried the young female because she weighs about 70 pds so it wasn't that bad. But we saved the best for last which would be chesnut i had 5 people help me lift him up in my truck because he was stubbern so i just drove him up in the back of my truck but i brought my two troughs up and they were coantent But there content in there new home or temporary but we closed off the bigger pature so it can grow and i got orchard grass for it so there having a ball and my ram bucky was jumping on mrs.hartungs ewe which was surprising so we will see how that go's. Well i'm out for now school tommrow. YAY! NOT..haha
