Good Afternoon! Timbrel, Reflexology, etc...


We have a sunny day after several days of overcast and rain. To be enjoyed for sure! Timbrel is improving- the doe that tore/severed the main tendon to her knee end of November. She is still splinted, but is now using the leg part of the time, and can stand with it unsplinted, though the leg is not yet perfectly straight, so we keep salving it. She is being salved every other day- every day would have been ideal, but with my husband's schedule every other day works better. So we are at 2 months and still making progress. She really likes me rubbing it when the splint is removed- I can imagine she gets itchy under there!!! She's allowed to wander the barn in the daytime- so she can get some sunlight and some exercise. She's not a get into everything goat, so it works well...

Ladies are getting much more pregnant. We wonder what we have in those tummies??? :).

Herb Business is a nice moderate steady- we thank the Lord for that... Kat's reflexology work is all complete and a 95% was earned on my test. A good 1/2 of the test was on the endocrine system- so I am VERY GLAD I studied my notes on those sections!!! As soon as my diploma makes it here I can be state certified. That will be nice. It's such a HELPFUL technique for human health. If your dog or cat will let you- you CAN reflex their paws. Just push firmly on their paw pads. If you find they pull away at a spot or flinch, you have found an area that needs to be worked on- firmly but gently, you want to try and work it out if they will let you...

Spring cleaning- outside, inside, and my insides :). I've been doing a lot of juicing, herb teas, herb mixes, for internal maintenance. Always a good thing after the holiday season :O). Don't forget your pets and creatures wouldn't mind spring cleaning as well...

I did get a real fun story this week- I hear that a year ago a gal in Oklahoma with a 5 year old grey gelding had a sarcoid (cancerous growth in horses) between his rump halves under the tail. It was interfering with his work and it was continuing to grow. They told me that by using the CanCieze salve they had it gone in 6 weeks....

Currently I'm studying hard on Iridology so that I can try to complete my level 2 exam in a week or two.... It will be fun to apply it to the goats as well as other creatures. It also will give insight as to what emotional tendencies each one has- this can be seen in the eyes as well :O).

I hear we're in for more rain, and many in this country (75%) are doing snow and/or ice. Every one stay WARM and BE BLESSED :).

  1. Hi Kat. I just found your blog and have added to my Google Reader for future updates. Tomorrow, your posts on feeding dairy goats and maintaining their weight will be posted on All Things Goat.com with a note about you and Fir Farm.

    God bless and hope this finds you well.
