A few pieces I liked from the last firing...
The boys ask to go out to the temporary pen every morning. I have to keep shifting it around. The grasses and weeds they like to dine on are growing very slowly now. They work well with Hattie on walk-arounds so I'm hoping we can move into neighbors' fields soon.
Her highness patiently waiting for the action to begin...
Tux is out with Bob for the morning so no picture. Results from latest bloodwork came in Friday. Cocci titer is back to 1:8 which is where she was before the temporary stop in medication. Our local vet is taking over from the AZ vet and uses a different compounding pharmacy so we're getting Fluconazole in tablet form that is much cheaper than the capsules she's been getting. The rest of her bloodwork was excellent except for slightly elevated calcium - which is very concerning. It could mean the fungus is doing something to Tux's bones, it could be a cancer, or it might just be that Tux was slightly dehydrated when the blood was drawn. Of course, it means worry for us to keep a watchful eye for increased lameness or anything else unusual and another round of bloodwork in a few months. Hoping for the best.
