But we will say that i moved the sheep right when i needed to which was thursday night because i had surgery on my wisdom teeth yesterday and i'm in pain but in ease knowing i dont have to chase sheep around with steches in my mouth.....thank god when i get pictures of new place i will surly be posting there pictures.

Winter is here!

Winter is finally here we just had a snow rain ice mix over the weekend it was with the snow but the ice i could have done with out ecspically the sheep thought so they like snow but not the ice because they fall and slide all over the place. Today was the last day of school for the winter break which will be nice but this cold weather stinks workin in home and at work with the cows. but you go to do what you got to do.. Well i hope you all have a merry christmas!!

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

Bye-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!

Bye-now

It's green!

It seems to be greener every single day like that the grass keeps growing and so does the tree's and what is so neat that the mountains is spreading like wild flowers of green tree's i love this time of you and the smell. Mrs. Hartungs new baby boer goat is doing good and let me tell you he has good lungs. and the baby bunnie's are growing well i'm to learn because i'm in school right now.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.

Shearing day!

Hello all-Today was interesting i had my sheep get sheered it's a little earlier but they needed it and it was the only appt. I could get. There happy up at mrs.hartungs But i like because there is a hayloft,running water, and eletric. But it's temp But i can say i like better than my grams because i don't have to log water and have eletric etc. The shearer told me that it isn't that hard to to teach yourself but i made a appt. for a class at delware valley colledge for may 6th and the 7th. And it only will cost me $40 bucks Well I know this isn't a long blog but i'm pooped.

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

Bye-now

Alot to say.

Well i hve been going threw heck with my mom but at this point i want ever nothing to do with her! But on a better note i found a place for the love of my life's which would be my sheep and goaties. I'm going to be keeping them at Mrs.Hartungs but i'm taking care of them and her sheep and one goat she has because they might need it but thank god we extended her pature so they will fit til i find my place not sure when i'm going to take them so we will see how this will work out. But WOW so much is happening in so little time but i can say me and my Aunt are fine and were on a good slate but we will see how much good things are going to happen in the next couplke of months because i don't think i can handle anymore with my mom telling people i'm BIPOLAR and it makes me feel so small about my self but what am i going to do because i know i'm not and i was tested yesterday so i can just trough all her lies down the drain! But i'm going to but will be trying to post more with pictures.

They have a hundred or so sheep and 200 goats and i get to take of them like there my own because they need it because there older people and need help but there paying me 8 an hour so i love it but there is something i hate very much about it! And that would be there is a wooden troff and it sits about 3 ft. ANd they had me gram and 6 month old fat ram lamb and i thought they need him to give him some pepto bismol because he had dyreha and the worst thing i saw was them fleeping it up in the truff and slit its thraut and i died i feel bad but i know you can't keep them all and well i don't want to know what happends to them and expesscially see what happens to them but i look at my animlas and there living the life compared to these guys.

Time to say good bye

Two nights ago my sheep went into labor and i pulled the baby ou because it got stock in her birth canal and it didn't make it it was weak and i lost it. The worst happend at two in the morning i delilah didnt give out any after birth and the vet told me she was done but i didn't think she was so i could the emergency vet and last night delilah wouldn't get up so the vet came out so got the hot water ready and he went inside her womb to make sure there were no more and low and be hold there was another one! And i wish i was as expirenced as he is and well that baby was preached so it went back into the womb and it died in her the poor thing then it poisned delilah and the vet had to put her down. I can't believe this happend!!! it kelled me to have to do it but she was suffing but he said the age of her probally had alot to do with it. I know that you shouldn't have favorites which i love them all but delilah followed me everywere and now i'm sure going to miss that. Well im going to go check up on everyone. im out for now.

Hello all

It's just another day with the critters i was with the for four hours then went to work. It felt like forever and i was on cart dutty tonight and it wasn't fun because there would be clouds of rain that passed through and the neat thing is were having heat lighting in febuary! It was in the high 50's and i hate that because all the animals were in mud i hate mud because it is like quick sand by there water buckets. I also am having a fox problem that needs to be killed because i think he has rabbies and i'm very nervous having him around because it came at me at 1 in the afternoon and i think he got my last rhode island red and i love her and her brown eggs she laid for me everymorning! But i'm going to order some more chickens for spring and thats real close i just love this!!! Well I'm going to get some rest.
