Well, my little rascals spent the week at the ranch. Chris and I drove down w/ them on Monday and spent the night. We had a very eventful day at the ranch on Tuesday and luckily I didn't have my camera and can spare y'all the gruesome details. For some reason the dogs (heeler & a lab) decided to turn into baby pig killers for the day. There was a hog w/ babies down in the hay by house and the mom left all the babies when the dogs scared her off. So.... throughout the day the dogs came back up to the house w/ 3 different baby pigs they had killed. One was just the front half of a body. We were all on pins and needles thinking the girls would be mortified. But, I guess they got PawPaw's true rancher genes b/c it didn't even phase either of them.
And a baby calf was born just as we got there and the girls got to see it right after it came out. The next day PawPaw, Dada & Kenzie went to check on the mom and she hadn't shed her afterbirth. So.... Dada had to hold the baby calf in his lap in the golf cart while it was squirming and peeing all over him and get the mom to follow them to the pins w/o attacking him. And he was wearing good clothes and new tennis shoes which I had warned him not to wear. But does anyone ever listen to Momma? It was quite the day on the Voss Ranch. We met in San Marcos yesterday at Centerpointe and picked them up.
