She Came, She Ate ... And She Left Again!

The stray mama was back again today, she may not be people friendly, but she knows we are a food source, and she comes over to watch us, makes sure we are busy, and then eats. She doesn't like us talking to her, but I do it anyway in the hope that eventually she won't be so afraid. At least she trusts us enough to come for food, so I guess that's good.

Hubby planted out my tiger melon, and cucumber seedlings and (possibly) one watermelon today.

He dug the trench to put them in, and then laid cardboard below weed barrier fabric, and then put mulch on top, to create a "pathway" alongside, which will also be a better drained area for when they fruit later on, and hopefully help prevent them from rotting. I took the pic mid-work and forgot to take another one at the end of it.

So, Solomon and Sunshine are too smart for their own good. Hubby had them out to browse ... and where do they run? Straight up onto the front porch where the goat feed is! Noisy, too, when you tell them no and drag them away. Awww, my babies.

Last, but one dose of Albon today, then take a fecal sample to the vet a week from Monday to follow up and make sure Sunshine is totally free of it. Only then will I bring our next little girl home. I don't want to risk a 7 week old getting it.

It's been a pretty decent day.
