5 PEOPLE OUT... GRACE SAID SHE IS WORSHIPING HER PORCELAIN GODDESS- DONNA'S DAUGHTER IS IN TOWN--WELL I SUPPOSE HYPPA REGULATIONS DON'T ALLOW ME TO SAY WHY EVERYONE ELSE IS OUT...
FACT REMAINS... WE NEED ALL THE HELP WE CAN GET TODAY...
I AM NOT SURE POCKETS IS FEELING WELL... WITH NO GRACE HERE.... I SUPPOSE THAT PUTS ME ON THE OTHER END OF A THERMOMETER-- SHE DID HAVE A SLIGHT COUGH... AND WAS A LITTLE LETHARGIC...
AS FOT THE REST OF THE DONKEY NEWS... PLEASE DON'T BOTHER NOTING ALL JASPERS ACITIVITY-- BRYAN SAID HE COUD NOT FEEL THE NECESSARY EQUIPMENT TO COMPLETE TEH IMPREGNANTING PROCESS. JANINE SAYS SHE PAID A BILL TO SOME VET IN VA QUARENTINING STATION FOR THE REMOVAL PROCEEDURE...
WHICH--- FYI--- A VERY QUICK DELICATE DISCUSSION... TIPTOEING AROUND THE SPAM IDENTIFYING SYSTEMS----- THERE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE 2 CONTAINERS OF IMPREGNANTING DEVICES.. WHICH ARE REMOVED IN THE NEUTERING OPERATION.. THESE 2 DEVICES ARE LOWERED INTO ACTIVATION BY AGING... AND THERE ARE TIMES WHEN ONE IS "UNDESCENDED" -- NOW THIS IS PURELY FROM MY OWN FILE OF OLD WIVES TAILS--- I THINK IT IS PRACTICALLY ILLEGAL TO REMOVE JUST THE DESCNEDED ONE AND LEAVE THT OTHER "HIDDEN" BECAUSE THAT ANIMAL WILL HAVE BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS WHICH BY VISUAL INSPECTION CAN NOT BE JUSTIFIED... THESE ANIMALS ARE CALLED "BLIND STUDS" AND ARE NOT RELIABLE... MIND YOU ... THE ONE OF THE MOST RELIABLE DONKIES I EVER OWNED WAS MY ORIGIONAL STUD DONQUI JOTE-- WHO WAS MY LEAD DONKEY IN THE 8 HITCH AND MOST EXPOSED TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.. DONQUI WAS EXTREMELY "VISUALLY CORRECT" -- THERE IS A VERY FUNNY UNPRINTABLE STORY ABOUT A TV SHOW WITH TOM BROKAW.. I DON'T THINK I COULD EVEN TELL THAT LIVE AT DOGFEST.....
SOOOOOOOO--- IF JASPER IS A BLIND STUD, ... WE WILL HAVE TO RE ASSESS THAT - AND MAYBE FIND HIM A JOB AS PROTECTOR OF SHEEP...
P.S. MANY TIMES THE UNDESCENDED ONE IS "EMPTY"
SO TODAY -- I HAVE HAD MANY CALLS FOR THE ULTRASOUND OF LADY HARL... AND ONLY ONE DON'T BOTHER.... SO IF WE DO HAVE TO HAVE BRYAN COME, I WILL ASK IF HE HAS TIME.. IT REALLY IS NOT NECESSARY-- BUT THAT IS EXACLY WHAT THE FUN FUND IS FOR... THINGS NOT NECESSARY , BUT INTERESTING.
THAT 2100 CHICKEN BRICKS IS FOR THE PAYROLL AND CRITICAL..... SO DON'T FIGURE WE HAVE "EXTRA MONEY " BECAISE... WE DON'T..
AS FOR SO MANY DONKEYS IN ONE STALL,,, LINCOLN'S STALL-- BEHIND THAT WALL... I OPEN TO THE SAME PASTURE FOR ALL OF THEM TO USE ...
I ANSWERED SHARON'S CONCERN THAT 9 IS TOO MANY
THAT LINCOLN AREA IS OPEN TO THEM TOO- BEHIND THAT WALL--SO THEY GET A CHOICE..
KEEP IN MIND THESE ARE WILD ANIMALS -- ESPECIALLY THE ONES WE JUST GOT... THEY ARE PROBABLY HAPPIER OUTSIDE...
IT IS THEIR CHOICE... EVEN IN THE WIND, THEY GET ON THE BACKSIDE OF A TREE.
I ONCE HAD 30 DONKEYS WHO WOULD PACK THEMSELVES INTO THE AREA FROM KENNEL 1 TO KENNEL 8 AND JUST BE A SEA OF GREY BACKS....STANDING QUIETLY OUT OF THE WIND...
BUSY DAY-- AND ANN -- WITH HER PAPERWSORK TOO.....
