These two stellar opportunities were dumped off the highway and showed up here. Of course!

They’ve been getting rest, recovery (food, lots of food) and pets.

So far, they seem to be very friendly and well behaved with other people, dogs and farm animals.

One seems to be a tan pitbull. We call her Frannie, but she doesn’t care what you call her! She just wants to eat, have pets and be at your feet. I think she would make a great friend to someone out there! Frannie looked AWFUL when she got here. Very underweight and suspicious of people. But, she came around after just a few days. Very submissive. Very eager to please.

The other is Heinz 167 😂 I call her Zippy. Even though she would run into the woods at even a glimpse of a human (I only saw her on my cameras the first four days lol), after seeing Frannie get belly rubs and a belly full, she decided to join the fun. She zips all around and is a fan favorite here. She does enjoy chasing the cats, but she quits when I tell her to be nice.

The local rescues are full. I feel like someone out there would really enjoy these dogs! I am willing to pay their spay at Magnolia!

I will gladly deliver them!

How’s your day going? 😆😆😆

I’m just out here problem solving. Something probably only the car line ladies (and my kids know about me)…I am that girl driving around with an open coffee cup on the regular. While I own various proper travel coffee cups and about ten times the number of lids, I just can’t keep up with them. I’m just out in the wild with my Centenary, Revolution Meat or chicken coffee cups (or Pyrex measuring cup) clinking around on my floor board or abandoned at the office.

So, here we are…just getting it done!

I just want a healthy baby and healthy mama and homebirth can all go together 💗 we can have our cake and our baby in our own bed at home!

Planned home birth with a qualified midwife continues to show strong outcomes for low risk families. The evidence is clear, and families deserve policies that reflect that reality. NACPM advocates for licensure and integration so CPMs can practice safely and legally in every state. Access to community birth is a maternal health issue.

When our midwife asked Jarred if he wanted to catch our last baby, he told her, “As long as the front two hooves are coming out first, I should be good!” 😆

At Revolution Meat Co., we see ALOT of different kinds of babies born!

Just this morning, when I checked on the sheep, I saw a fresh lamb. I so wanted to get in there and make sure all was well, but I know I didn’t want to disturb their bonding and imprinting. So, I watched from afar, allowing them to just do their thing, as good midwife-farmer should 💗

Preparing for our first Calving Workshop tomorrow night at the Union Parish Extension Office!

Nesting! There’s a reason we get all “nesty” before a baby comes 💗

Sadly, last summer, L3-11 lost her long time mate. But luckily this winter she met up and paired with young, wild-hatched male, LW1-23!

Although LW1-23 was reared in Calcasieu Parish, once he was on his own and exploring he found other cranes and has mostly stayed in and around Jefferson Davis Parish, occasionally making trips and spending short amounts of time back in Calcasieu Parish.

Now that he's paired with L3-11 they are likely to remain on her long-established territory and home range in Allen Parish.

Yesterday, we observed them foraging in this rice field but also saw them step up on to a nest platform that they would have built, LW1-23 even laid down on it for a few minutes before they both wandered away, continuing to forage.

This is a promising sign that we hope will lead to them nesting in the near future. While L3-11 is experienced with nesting and raising chicks, this would be LW1-23's first effort so keep your fingers crossed and we'll keep you posted!

Gotta love that football!

Some of you are watching the Superbowl (or halftime show). While some of you are running a different kind of play!

The football hold gets its name because your baby is tucked under your arm at your side, like a player carrying the ball. Instead of touchdowns, you get:
~milk transfer
~a deeper latch
~relief while healing from a c-section
~a practical way to feed twins
~a better angle if you want to see what’s happening

If you need someone to cheer you on or offer some QB plays, LLLC Leaders are here to help!

No babies for me tomorrow, so I’ll be heading up the wagon train! Get some 100% grass fed beef for a GREAT price!

And I have tallow soap available, as well! Stay safe out there 🙂

Store pickup and home delivery tomorrow!

Jarred has been having a busy month out at the farm with hauling hay and tending to calves, so we haven’t been able to get to market like usual…so, we have quite a bit of 100% grass fed ground beef and beef cutlets in stock, and some odds and ends of others!

All good stuff for quick meals this winter weather weekend!

We only have so many beef cutlets because the box was left in the big freezer and never made the trailer!

You can order online at revolutionmeatco.com by midnight to get your order placed!

-Pick up at the store will be tomorrow from 11-12noon
