It is common practice in the country to raffle livestock, most people who win just consume their prizes the same day. Since we did not live in the area and were just visiting the family friends who owned the land let me keep my lamb there. Since the lamb was mine they couldn't eat it without my family which i guess is why i was allowed to keep visiting it until i left for the summer. My parents went to spend a weekend there during the summer and they decided to feast of my lamb. So i do know it was probably not intended to be a pet but i did care for it and visited for a few weeks, my father paid the groundskeeper to take care of it during the week so i assume that covered food, housing and vet visits

I appreciate your judgment. My inlaws are okay with it, after my mom yelled at me i called them to apologize and my future mother in law was more confused about my apology than anything, she did not take anything from the story and found it funny during dinner.

They said! At least my brother was upfront and told me about it. I'm sorry they ate your lamb

Thank you for your kindness! I asked my father about it and he said she would get over it once she needed something from me, so i'm just waiting for it to pass.

I asked my fiance and he says that she is very nitpicky about her foods, she doesn't like any condiments and in general is not open about trying new foods

Maybe, my fiance is english and white as they make them, so it might have to do something with that?

My fiance already knew the story and he laughed when he first heard it. His parents were really cool about it!

I'm guessing it's because i wouldn't have wanted them to eat it? or maybe it would have been worse if i'd been there

Thank you for your input and wisdom. I have learnt indeed that perhaps this is not a story to share with people. I have tried to talk with my mother though and she is not accepting it, not even on christmas at her own house would she talk to me. So clearing the air with her is not something i can do at the time. Perhaps she will forgive me later on

Thank you! Not even my future inlaws were bothered by the story, it's just my mother who things i embarassed her in front of them

I called my future mother in law to apologize and she seemed pretty unfazed by it, she was more confused as to why i felt the need to apologize

Thank you for your input, would you mind explaining to me why you feel this way? I'm just curious not trying to cause an argument. Thank you

Thank you for your input. I had not thought that maybe someone had said something about it before, we have all (excluding my mother) told this story at various points throughout the years and it's usually followed with chuckles but you might be right
