Sorry I have been gone my computer caught a virus. I hate those as they take to long to get off. What have I missed? Oh and if you want to know the day I disappeared I also ended up doing farm work. It was fun milking the goat and mucking out the pigs. And feeding the chicks. And also gowning the veg. But alas I have returned my good star trek people. I have come back from the planet of farms and I come bearing gifts. *Gives out photo's of her in a farming clothes and gives out fresh from the farm foods, only veg's not meat*

There was no cows but there was goats and pigs. One gave birth at 3am while I was there and we had to rush to save one of the Piglets.

That must have been amazing -- watching the "miracle of birth".
I used to have an uncle who raised goats. He sent us half a gallon of goat milk every so often. It was delicious!

There were three in that particular litter, but she only laid one in my lap. She had a cozy little nest in my closet, but since this was her first time pregnant, I suppose she was nervous. All evening long, she'd run into the living room every few minutes and mew at me until I talked to her for a while, then run back to the closet. She still hadn't had them when I went to bed that night. I was about to turn out the light and here she came again, jumping on the bed and curling up in between my outstretched legs. Next thing I knew, she was giving birth. All I could do was sit there petting her and encouraging her. After the first one, she calmed down and let me move her back to her nest.

The weird thing about newborns is they hardly even look alive at first. There I was, holding the little thing, and its umbilical was still attached somewhere inside Yar, so I was waiting for her to push the placenta out. It just looked and felt like a little organic glob. But then the mother gnaws off the umbilical, and licks off the amniotic fluid, and the next thing you know, its fur has fluffed out and it's meowing and before your eyes, it suddenly seems to come to life. That's what I think is amazing about it.
