Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[CrazyChookChookLady]

Not candy... definitely a very bad idea... my cats are not impressed. I need a bottle. DH is very, very not impressed. She can jump, has already piddled on a blankie, and if mama would show up I will happily return her. Doesn’t like blue glove improvised nipples, is trying to chew everything. I am NOT cut out for this... I don’t do sheep even

Send her in a box to MEEEEEEEE!!!

Remember @Kris5902 claims (I emphasize claims!) to be on the 'less cuddly' side of animal husbandry. So I am sure she will say that she will send the kid to freezer camp by the end of the month
In reality I suspect that little bundle of chaos will live a long and happy life inside Kris's bedroom. It certainly looks like it has already settled in.

When I traveled in the days before COVID, I lived in constant fear that I would come home to a baby goat. I have even woken up from a nightmare where baby boats were standing on top of my shed and car! Mrs BY Bob is obsessed.

OMG!!! I want it!!!

House goats are a blast! Plus they are adorable running around in diapers.

What us wrong with you! Does Rich know!

Thank you all
I got bored in a conference call early this morning and went on a wander around some of the other parts of BYC

I likely all pullets. The white one gives me a little pause. I posted on your thread that I would look at posture. They are likely all pullets as I did not see any rooster posture in any of the pictures.

I am definitely not weighing in here. I will stick to my comfort zone - they are probably chickens (see I am even losing confidence in my comfort zone!).

How can they in good concious refuse to see a sick animal? I don't understand that philosophy. Well I have enough animals to take care of, any other sick animals can just suffer and die. Vets just continue to fall in my eyes. Their ethics are terrible.

They same way local vets here won't accept emergencies without payment or deposit up front. It's less and less about the animal and more and more about the money. That was my biggest heartbreak when I worked for a local veterinarian. He would have done more, but his partner was all about the money (and not a vet), so his hands were tied.

Let us just be very clear. Goats running and jumping are adorable in any setting.
This is one of my go-to videos to cheer me up if I am ever down in the dumps.

HAHAHA!! Rich is ok with it, actually. He doesn't mind them and they are GREAT weed control.

You won't want to share the video I just posted then.

I feel like there is something left unsaid here. Would you like to add to this comment?

Yes - just wanted to say thank you for how lovely everyone on these threads are. Definitely the best of BYC!
I think I got distracted by baby goats while I was typing my gratitude!
