I was vegetarian for 7 years. Largely because I dont approve of the way animals are treated before slaughter in a commercial setting. Also because the antibiotics and hormones used on these animals are then sold in our grocery stores, end up in our bodies causing all kinds of health problems in the long run. So although butchering and processing meat is difficult for me, I feel better knowing that the animal that I sacrificed, had a good life, was healthy and treated with respect. I feel better knowing that my family and I are eating healthier. And I feel better knowing that every inch of this animal is being used to its fullest potential and is not being wasted or discarded.

More disbuddings today. Kids always get a bottle after and aspirin if they need it. We prefer to put neosporin on the head after for a day or 2 just to be able to keep an eye on healing and watch for possible infection.

It was a beautiful day today so we let the kids out, started our garden seeds, milked, and chopped some wood for the fire.

Spent some time with the animals this afternoon after milking and bottle feeding. Wish this last girl would drop her babies.
