Thursday Again..........
Yep, another Thursday and as usual all the little piggies got a new home without a hitch, well that is not entirely true, there were a few hitches (I think I spelled that right) but nothing I haven't had hurled at me before. Steve got a new HUGE baby calf yesterday and it was ok, so that is some good news along with his dentist's report that his mouth is not quite as large as we all thought. Lee and Terry managed to rid the shop of at least one of the "Mr. Stinkies" that had made a home under it. Let's hope that was the only one.
Well, the farrowing room got washed and some new mommies put in and the feed got ground and the bean meal hauled in and all is well on the farm once again................
Let's all keep Susan and Kim in our prayers...........:)

"JJ" and the cold.......
Well, it's been a rather cold weekend here on the farm, in fact, it hasn't been this cold in over a year, 1 degree this morning at 4:00 A.M., but everything and all the piggies seems to have faired it just fine.........Speaking of little piggies, I would like you all to meet "JJ" (Joe Junior), crowned by Lori to possibly be our new teaser boar..............
On a more serious note..........let's all keep Kim and Susan's fathers in our thoughts and prayers....each is fighting his own battle with an illness and can use our support........

Jonathon
It's been another typical Thursday. All the little piggies got moved to the nursery on schedule and Eric got to scare the boogers out of Lori at the weaning hole, which was only one out of five times, about her limit for a day, the room got washed and is ready for sows in the morning, oh my! The new feed system is purring like a kitten, well actually it is more like humming like a bird, but either way it is working just fine up to this point. Steve, Lee, and Terry, ( he is the one who had a heart fart ) got the feed bins switched at Isolation without a hitch, Randy got corn hauled, Marie got houses inspected, Ronda kept all coordinated so all in all it was another most excellent day hear at the farm............:)
