I am so sorry

    Okay, I know I told RJ that I would post if anything happened while he was away.  The truth is something did happen that I didn't want him to see if he check the blog.  So I waited until I was sure he couldn't check it until his camp was over.  So What happened??
    Well, not last night but the night before, the Coyotes were ... shall we say active?  Jethro and Hank did their jobs and kept all the coyotes at bay from our land.  However, one thing we didn't count on is the flock getting a bit worked up.  Anyway, In the middle of the night at some point as far as we can tell, Little Schroeder was fast asleep when the flock spooked and well, He got trampled.  
    I have to tell you I feel horrible.  I know there wasn't anything I could do about it without having slept at the barn.  I just know it happened on my watch ... And I hate it.  We check everything every 6 hours without fail.  At 9pm I gave everything bottle and all was fine except for the howling in the distance.  At 3am Lee did bottles and checked everything and that is when he was found.  Well, RIP Little guy ...
