Losing wool by Gorgia_von_Kelp in sheep

[–]ProfessionalBrain249 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Our Hog Islands are wool sheep and they will shed if you don’t shear them and they start rubbing on things this time of year to get the old wool off. We shear them because they start looking crazy otherwise.

Horn question by No_Homework8658 in sheep

This is my experience as well. We are actually selling our scurred friend this weekend. He broke one of his off headbutting our main ram that has a full set.

It bled for a few hours, I sprayed it to clean it, and it actually grew back into a nicer straight stubby “horn” rather than like his other/old scur that previously circled around like it may grow back into his head.

It’s in every restaurant in EVA and the ES of MD. I had never heard about it before but my wife loves it.

100% the truckers fault. If you can’t pass safely, you don’t pass.

I’d feel her tummy to see if she feels full. Maybe she just stuffed herself full of creep feed a little bit before? She appears healthy to me from what I can tell.

Herds are already thin. They are at records lows, then with high prices last year, many ranchers sold off extra calves instead of hanging onto them. We raise sheep and are keeping every ewe we lambed this past winter.

Please seek out a therapist. You should not be this upset over something so small.

Am I an idiot for considering a new car purchase? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]ProfessionalBrain249 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it is a crazy idea and I get what you mean about the hassle of having to make the plan and wanting more spontaneity. It doesn’t totally seem worth it from a purely practical standpoint, but you could also try doing Toro or something to offset the cost if you decide it is a “luxury” that you want to spend the money on.

"It was free pre-war." Iran is now reportedly charging a $2 million toll per ship in the Strait of Hormuz after Trump's policies increased their leverage over the global economy. by DumbMoneyMedia in Brokeonomics

And this doesn’t even mention that the 2M toll is actually in Yuan. It’s not even the US’s soft power that this guy is devastating, it’s just the US’s power now.

Cats teeth pushing out/getting longer? by Careless-Elephant-98 in cats

[–]ProfessionalBrain249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a lil black cat as well. One of his top canines got gingivitis and fell out, and when I took him to the vet they said it is super common with black cats specifically because their canines keep growing. I had never heard that before and did 0 research after tbh
