Instant Jellyfish posted:Hello again friends! You showed up in my dreams a month or so ago. My (dream-only) goat had a baby goat with no horns and you were so disappointed. Goat-shaming, man.

The blue looks especially funny on your coated sheep. How do your sheep react the first time they're put into their jackets?

"Butternut Salvation" is the BEST name for a stud.

Instant Jellyfish posted:Not yet, my list of A rose names is: Acapella, Alain, Alberic, Applejack and Arthur Bell. I'm leaning towards Alberic Strudel is such a great cuddle-name. "Aww, my little Strudel, who's the best little lamb? It is YOOOOO".

Instant Jellyfish posted:Aster lambed at some point in the night and decided she wasn't feeling it this year. Just left them in a soggy heap on an 18F night then hosed off to eat some hay. Did Aster just disqualify herself from next year's breeding pool?

Instant Jellyfish posted:I said goodbye to Major a year ago November. His GOLPP was getting worse and I didn’t want to wait until it was an emergency. He went out happily eating an entire pint of moose tracks ice cream after a month of getting spoiled. I still miss him a lot but it was the right choice.
