for a colonoscopy tomorrow! (not wanting tooo!) No, my last sheep when hubby came in last night evidently somehow got upside down in the feeder and had been laying there for no telling how long! (I can see then when they go up and down the driveway but not around their feeder) He got her out and as soon as he got her out of her turtled position she just laid immediately and stayed down but her head was up! So he thought no more about it, put some feed in front of her etc etc..
(So that's what that goat was doing!)
I doubt she got a bit... so when we went to bed last night still in same spot but her head was up THIS morning when he left same thing! I CANT get her up even if I could get out to her and in there with her (which I cant) I could not begin to lift her! She is easily over 250lbs. Just so frustrated.. he could have gone in a wee bit late he has got sooo much time stored up it isn't even funny ! But ..... grrrrrrrr shakes head violently. So... I have been told to gather old sheets that wont hurt to be ruined...?... and some type of bucket for water and he will try to LIFT her with his tractor to get her upon her feet.
And that he would try to be home as early as he can. slapping hand over mouth and closing eyes before I respond in any way shape or form.
I could understand better if he had a reg clock in clock out job.. but he is a supervisor! once all the buses get in if he needs to HE can go do whatever it is needed as long as he is back by time to make sure the afternoon routes go smoothly.... (4 to 5 hour window!) so...I'm a upset shepherdess. You can be sure of one thing.. this weekend I WILL learn to drive his tractor! PERIOD! (And get a extra key to it) he had his or I WOULD have tried it new or not, even not knowing how to... pouts..... Cant help but think I should just go shoot her and put her down out of her misery. But I just... I still have nightmares over the one goat I did have to do that to 9 years later!...... please if you can send any spare comfort energy or anything to my poor girl Mist....I would so appreciate it!
off to use binoculars to try and see her....
