Barely Controlled Chaos 05/19/21 – Gloomy Day


** WARNING **
I talk about farm related death again on today’s video. If you don’t want to hear about that you might want to skip this video. You have been warned
** WARNING**

We had another death on the homestead last night. One of the little piglets died it was the runt, she (I didn’t sex the pigs so I call them all her until I have sexed them) and she had been having trouble since we brought them home, I even spent time trying to bottle feed her last night, but she was just too weak. So I kind of knew this was coming.
Death of an animal always sucks. I will always maintain that. Even when it is getting to the point of butchering them. I don’t like the killing part. I feel like if you do like that part, well then maybe… I will just let that line of thinking go, and just leave it at, I don’t like that part. Having said that, it is much better to loose one at this point instead of two or three months down the road when we have invested a bunch of time and effort, not to mention money into them. That sounds really callous, but it is a reality.
