From Town to Country: A Wife's Tale

• Wednesday, April 2, 2008 - More babies

Posted in Animals

We will be having more babies in a month or so.  But not goats this time.  We have been getting calls for our mini lops so we needed to do more breeding.  4Her's must be starting to think about fair time!

Hillary still hasn't had her kids.  She has a terrible cough and I'm questioning the possibility of pneumonia.  I'm researching info tonight (after doing the farm taxes  UGH!) and will give her a thorough check up tomorrow and treat her appropriately.

It could be pneumonia, if so the best thing to treat it with is Nuflor. It could also be lung worms, that gives them a dry cough. I will try to help if you have questions. Just my thoughts.

OK.. thanks for the advice. Her cough is not dry... and she has a audible loose rattle when she exhales. I thought she was groaning. I'm going to listen to her lungs with the stethoscope this am. My nursing skills should help me. Everytime we check on her she is laying down but she is also very pregnant.

About Me

We've been working on the family farm for 3 years trying to get it back to a working farm. The farm was neglected for 15+ years before we took it on. The summer of 2008 is our family's first experience living in the country, so began our journey from town to country...
