This has been one of the hardest weeks that we've had in a very long time.
This page is not for my Farm but we had a situation few days ago. One of our pigs had one baby naturally. She couldn't deliver them after that... She did not make it.
And then yesterday very hard day.... Fancy's babies are here but Fancy is not. She had complications delivering the babies. So I am playing Mama to 13 babies. Irma has come in to play step-Mommy the best she can. She did a great job last night! She kept them clean and warm! We will take time to grieve for Fancy Jazz ... One of the sweetest babies you could have ever met. She loved everybody. She never met anybody that upset her in any way.
I am definitely taking pick of the litter... we are keeping one of the females. Once we pick and we get past the 10-day Mark, we'll let everybody know who's been interested in her babies. There was nothing wrong with Fancy health-wise it was something with the delivering the babies. It didn't go right. We've never had to deal with this before so I don't know what to do from here except... take care of the babies. Our family is involved with helping us feed. So far everything is going Great and Irma is doing an amazing job!
None of this is easy....I know this stuff happens in 3's not sure I can handle another one God. I pray it has a little more time in-between then the last two.
