Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

Thank you for validating my childhood traumas... yes it did burn! “You’re imagining it, it doesn’t hurt! Now hold still...” an aside... DH managed to get the lidocaine but still no chlorhexadine... and my other favorite BluKote spray has also been discontinued.

Its so strange. I checked Amazon and here you can get chlorhexidine spray, wipes, and gel. It's an antiseptic. Bacteria do not develop immunity to it. Why would they restrict the sale of something that keeps you from having to use an antibiotic! It's maddening!

I had to adapt to that as well. I use clear shower curtains for wind and snow blocking. I also put down straw onto any snow that does make its way in

Those are great ideas.

They friggin roll it up and gobble gobble!

I thought only turkeys gobbled?

Send some west!

Do you want it by the foot or by the shovel-full. Will you pay for shipping? I have a seemingly unlimited supply and am very happy to share.

Yes, the thread is still up, but I don’t really post in it anymore... I should probably get back to updating it eventually. I just live here at Bob’s thread for the most part now! He summed up most of the important stuff perfectly. FIL passed away last year, after a short and sudden struggle with cancer. There has been some additional Family Drama with the Aunt-in-Laws. Andrew is now “officially” a part owner of the property so we can’t be evicted (a small funny aside FIL was actually threatening to leave his share of the property to his friends in Cuba, but a lawyer talked him out of it!). And every time I’m about ready to throw in the towel and go back to the city... something comes up. FIL’s Hunter friends show up and get our house partially up, or I find an orphaned baby goat walking down the road... we do have to get the house up or something proper to live in this year though. It doesn’t have to be fancy, just water tight and with a woodstove, that’s all I need and I can take it from there. Meddling municipal government...

Oh, and the Goat snores!

I'm laughing at the last line. Of course it does!

I posted the question twice in separate posts in my haste... it was me

Now I have replied twice so I think we got it covered!

Not funny. You keep that to yourself!

In all seriousness, if you want to surprise Mrs. BY Bob with a baby goat outing, I can arrange that. They stay with their mom, so no worries on sneaking one home.

You are right! I completely forgot.

I believe a lot of people laughed at me. Just saying. 🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿

Who knew you had a snow farm with a bumper crop!

I may want to do that for her. Thank you for offering.
