TRYING FOR 2015 BABY

kwakwakwakwa..Morgan, you killed me with the chicken story..ahahahahhahahahaa.

ladies you are the best, funny how we had so many waves today, from nurseries to the farm. i am now hooked on pinterest.

@Morgan55
I also wouldn't trade farm life for anything else, I basically grew up on one and now live on a smallholding. The air is fresher and there is just so much more to a farm life

@Morgan55
Our sheep was called Koosie he drank his milk from a glass coke bottle when he was still small, he automatically thought he was a dog since there was only dogs. He ran with the dogs to the gate, played with them and slept with the dogs in the dog houses too. Sometimes if people came to visit that he didn't like he would head bud them and run their legs out under them

You should really write a book!
I laughed so hard at chicken with the ducklings that my boss gave me this skew look, lol!!!

@Morgan55
I agree with you, my animals are also part of our family. Guests are called guests for a reason! lol!

Wow, really femera was a breast cancer drug? Sounds very interesting, I will definitively be reading up on it

@ P4M1 - I know!!!!! It's horrible to lose them like that and then they look at you and you know that you can do nothing for them at all.

OMW!!!!!!!

We had a sheep that thought he was a dog too!! His name was Dudley and he was HUGE. Probably because we gave him liquor. He was quite fond of Tequila.... Got drunk on it a few times

And when it was full moon, he'd go bouncing around the house in '4 wheel drive'!! You know, that silly sheep jump that they bound off on all four legs?

I've been told numerous times to write a book about the farm life. honestly though, I wouldn't know where to begin...

We once put duck eggs under a chicken to hatch. When the ducklings hatched, mommy chicken was so pleased with her babies. Until they went for a swim. I have NEVER in my life seen a chicken jump from foot to foot, squealing and squawking like she did that day.

Then there was the time our cat had kitten and the meerkat we had thought they were hers. She sat in the box with them, pulling them to her, holding them and cooring away...

Honestly, I wouldn't trade my farm life with all it's hiccups and fragility for anything in the world. There are so many wonderful memories that I one day, hope my kids will be able to have as well.

@Morgan55
Yes I agree with you, I hate people who abuse and kill animals for no reason. And the worst of it all was while that person that poisoned her was safe at home my baby was dying in my arms and there was nothing I could do for her the memory still haunts me
Miss piggy sounds like a sheep we used to have that thought he was a dog

@Babydreaming88
Sounds like Dextor is one cool tortoise
To have such special animals is truly a blessing

hahahahaha!!!

Yes, thinking back on it, it was very funny but at the time I was horrified! Luckily, people who come to visit know how it works in our house. The dogs, cats and horses are here to stay. Just because you're coming to visit doesn't mean that I'm going to lock them outside to suit you.

Ah well, that's my circus, anyway.

That adorable that your Chihuahua protects him hey! Just goes to show you, they know how to give love and compassion just as most humans do.


I was just thinking, there is a very interesting email that I get weekly from about.com

I subscribed to their 'About Fertility' emailing list and get a weekly email with interesting articles and discussions about a HUGE range of pregnancy / ttc topics. The one that stood out for me recently was 'How did a cancer drug become a ttc drug?'

The reason why it stood out is because femara was listed as one of the breast cancer fighting drugs that are now used as a ttc drug...

Made me gasp, I'm telling you!
