Oooo… that is such a good use of a Saturday. If I make it back down there (yes, made it to P.Burgh–thanks for the help!), I’ll be knocking on your door for some serious cheesy goodness.

Oh, that reminds me, I did make it down to the Pennsylvania Macaroni Co. the other week and tasted the creamiest chevre. Melted in my mouth.

That’s just awesome that you are taking the time to experiment with the sheep milk. I want to make cheese, too.

This is really frightening! I am glad that your friend answered the phone and was able to get you help. I’m thankful that you are feeling much better. Hope your recovery continues speedily.

Your pigs are just so darn cute! The animals all seem to find their own ways to tolerate the heat. Ugh! I hate this time of year. Give me a blizzard anyday!

Raspberries look good enough to eat.

Thanks Terri. Both little lambs and mothers seem to be doing well. I am keeping a close eye on them. My big concern was that the stringy afterbirth hung from them for more than 24 hours (on the Vets recommendation, I gently removed as much as I could). It is possible they ate the placenta, but I would have thought the stringy tissue would have come out with the placenta. So far they both are eating and drinking and taking care of their little ones just fine. Perhaps they did eat the placenta and just had some “leftovers” hanging. My first time, so I am not sure what is “normal”.

Congrats on your new little lamb!
Your ewes would be very sick if they didn’t pass the placenta. If you didn’t find it, perhaps they ate it. Some sheep do! Our great pyr takes care of it if the sheep don’t. She thinks it’s a great treat–Ick!
