Vet visitd, part two.

Soo, a few things happens when the vet was here, we found out the pig likes sugar donuts, (well, who doesn't really?) 

And we found out sad news about Little Bit, not surprising, but the only cure for Little Bits problem is to butcher him.
The vet said to do it as soon as possible. Not terribly surprising news and his end outcome was always meant to be beef, but I was hoping to raise him to have some more weight and health on him.
It looks like he will not ever be leaving this Farm to the point of being in our freezer.
 I'm not confident enough in the condition and flavor of his meat to sell it to any of my customers. 
I tried to uphold very high standards for all of my meat animals.


Overall everyone's health is doing really well, the vet was very happy to see how everyone was happy, clean and healthy.
They all got their shots and surprisingly it didn't go as badly as I was fearing, considering the artificial insemination was  done before the vet arrived, Daisy was calmed a little by then and wasn't too bad to give her shot to, she can be a big baby when it comes to medical issues though so she fussed as if we were doing something horrible to her.

Her calf Dove did better than I expected her to especially since she's been a little wild lately. 
(But we may have found a solution to that story to come shortly...)


The chicken I was pleased to find out only broke a tendon she is completely fine now and only has the tiniest limp you would never know anything happened to her. The vet told me not to feel bad she has had happened to her too. 

That visit was concluded with a glass of lemonade to cool off as she wrote us her bill and we were left with a very good feeling about our vet clinic.
