We milked our first goat six months ago and got about 4 ounces a day. Today, we needed two large mason jars to contain it all. For those who know the triumph, I don’t need to say anything else. I have no experience with farm animals other than my 32 year old horse. I had merely looked at goats before 2023. When we moved to Florida there were 2 goats on the property so I decided, why not? I’ll just figure it out. The art and joy of “just figuring it out” are nearly lost on us in this technocratic world, but I challenge you to find something that intrigues you, that produces something tangible, and go for it. Making bread. Sewing. Woodworking. Raising chickens. Mountain climbing. Painting. Just figure it out. I promise it’ll be worth it. And if you’ve already done this - let me know in the comments the most “random” trade you’ve conquered with no prior experience. I’m off to have a cold glass of raw milk! 🥛
It’s not Afghanistan or Iraq. It’s not explosions or gunfire. What keeps Lynn up at night? A 5-ounce chick named Rosie who is the runt of the new chick squad but makes her mighty presence known with loud chirping whenever she poops. A word to new or potential chick owners: find a place outside in the garage or barn for their brooder instead of keeping them inside. They’re louder than you’d think! Anyone else have tricks for creative spots to keep a brooder that are safe and warm?
Raise your hand if you’re the farm husband of a “low maintenance” woman who has a to-do list for you longer than Santa’s. 👋 We thank you for your service. Now get back to work on that fence.
I woke up Sunday to find that my trusty stead of 32 (almost 33) years, Sassy, had a swollen cheek with a rather hard lump. Our vet, Dr Julia Simonson, came to examine her and I thought it would be interesting for folks to hear it “right from the horse’s mouth.” Examining a horse’s mouth without sedation can be tricky but thankfully Sassy is rather tame because I harassed her so much as a kid. 🤣 We saw what appears to be an ulcer or abscess likely from some kind of cut or foreign object. No signs of infection and it is slowly healing itself. I really appreciate having a veterinarian who supports the “monitor and support nutritionally” approach, and does not intervene pharmaceutically unless she believes it’s truly medically necessary. It’s very difficult to find a vet (or a human doctor frankly) these days with this mindset.
