Odin is again showing signs of serious pain and neurological issues. He cannot walk normally, and is yelping in pain during the night and has to by physically lifted up by one of us when this happens. It's absolutely heart-breaking to hear.

I would like to formally address the ongoing turkey nonsense. Frankly, I have had enough. For weeks now, it has been nothing but turkeys, turkeys, turkeys.
Someone swallowed a ball bearing. Someone is wearing a brand new sweater because of an “ouchie.” Someone else is refusing to come off her nest at bedtime, requiring a full nightly search party like she is royalty lost in the wilderness. I would like to remind everyone that I am the actual royalty here. So much going on here! We are trying to finish up all our projects before summer hits and Jenna and Maisie are doing "their best" to help.
This new and spacious barn will give Sherman and Lousia a permanent home (rather than their current temporary space in the medical barn). Poor Betty had already earned herself a ride to the vet after cutting her foot, but then it got worse. She became lethargic, struggled to seem like she was getting enough oxygen, and then her face began turning an upsetting shade of blue.
There are few things more panic-inducing than watching an animal you love struggle to breathe. Edna, the little goat who was once dumped deep in the woods and took four days to earn enough trust for me to finally bring her to safety, suddenly became very sick. She had snuck out by jumping over the fence, and gotten into azaleas, a common plant that is extremely toxic to goats.
Within a short time, she was vomiting and weak, and we knew we were in trouble. Our little boy is a year old now (how fast the time flies!) and has started losing his baby teeth. He now has an adorable gap in his teeth and we couldn't possibly love him more.
