Blondie is trying!!!!

Well, good news on The Farm front. Blondie is still just plugging along. She is trying to get up on her own. This morning I laid out paper and took her out of her box so she has room to move around more (the box isn't as wide as her wing span). She had those wings spread out and her legs pulled up under her and she was trying for all she was worth to get up. She is much better. If I can just get her on her feet and balanced. Her bad leg is still gimpy but she is using it more now.

She got a bath last night and she did very good!!! She just sat there in the water and let me clean her up a little. I expected a fight now that she is stronger but no, she did great. She is so funny, she is feeling better and ready to get out and go but her legs aren't strong enough yet so she gets those wings open and she gets around my bathroom that way. I started giving her a tad of scratch and she really enjoys that.

She scoots to the edge of the paper and pecks at the carpet, LOL, I am going to take her outside tomorrow and let her peck around on the ground. I am really pulling for her to walk again because my family is just in SHOCK at how well she is doing now. At first no one wanted to do anything, they just wanted me to tend her until she died and there was a couple days where it was kind of touch and go and the stress was really getting to me, but then she started gaining her strength back and it's amazing me how well she is doing!!!

We have bonded and Lil Roo is NOT going to be happy. LOL. Lil Roo hates me for some reason and he is not going to be happy that his little lady and I are friends now. Hehe.

Another tidbit of Farm news. I was in Balch Springs last night and got to see Kris Kringle (little goat) and his little girlfriend. LOL. She is tan and white and he is all black so it'll be fun to go see their babies when they begin to come along. He seemed very happy in that big lot eating away. It was dark and he was out eating with his new little friends. He seemed to be doing very well. Kind of cool to know where he is because when I'm out that way I can see him. I haven't gotten to see Sassy but I hear that she is doing very good and is very spoiled. She has kiddos to play with so I know she is happy because she loves her Humans and kids to play with, she LOVED playing. Which she now has NO horns. LOL. Kris still had his but they are still teeny tiny.

I love my little farm. I'm thinking Mator is getting a little frisky, thankfully the ground is starting to dry out some. This flood that came let me know where I still have to make some changes in my "barns". It also gives me time to change my goat house plans to include a raised floor. I'm going to have to do that in the horse barn too. Lucy has requested a place of her own that that she is laying eggs. LOL. She keeps running the chickens and horse out of the barn and it's their barn. Haha. Onry goose. I'm considering getting ducks, I would love another goose but Lucy may run the farmyard animal wise but she lets me pretend to be in charge over her. Hehe. She doesn't chase me so that is good!!! I'm expecting Silkie babies soon, I have 3 hens sitting faithfully so surely we'll have babies soon.
