Mine have grown so much within just a few days. Heading out to the barn in a few to feed and check on things.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992061904145415325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-81217223454165236272010-02-23T01:10:55.701-04:002010-02-23T01:10:55.701-04:00Oh my, I hope it starts to go better right away fo...Oh my, I hope it starts to go better right away for you!

The cat that killed the last weasel- she was hit by a car. Now we really hope we won't loose the rest of the flock! Weasels seem to kill mainly for the pleasure of it. <br />And I'm nigh certain that a possum is only an over sized weasel. Hehehe. <br />Hope the lamb(s!) come alright.Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15420451414341731077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9113326581808647426.post-85353220037654365072010-02-19T22:43:42.759-04:002010-02-19T22:43:42.759-04:00Oh dear, an uncooperative ewe, a lambie craving, n...Oh dear, an uncooperative ewe, a lambie craving, new snow and a hungry possum do add up to a no-good, very-bad day!

Silly sheep, stupid snow, ornery opossum, I am sorry it's a rough day, but you did give me a smile picturing a hamster talking to his 'peeps' on the cell phone.<br /><br />I hope the lamb comes, and the snow and opossum go.
