“When space poachers release Earth animals on an alien world, threatening a fragile new alliance, they anger the wrong people. A veterinarian, an accountant, and a furious sign-language-fluent gorilla are coming for them.”
Robin enjoys being one of the only humans around: an exotic outsider, strange and tall, with no shell and only two arms. Consulting for locals who want to keep Earth pets is a fine job. But when a swarm of rabbits invade town and humanity is blamed, everything unravels.
If Robin wants to save the alliance between two planets — and keep from getting sent home in disgrace — she has to prove that a powerful crime ring is behind the crisis. Luckily for her, she makes friends who are eager to help: from planetside, from the nearby space station, and recently escaped from the poacher’s ship.
Those poachers may be bug aliens with an excellent range of vision, but they won’t see this coming.

So... oreo got a hold of me. That's his teeth marks on my neck. My daddy put the heat lamp up for the goats and I was trying to distract oreo and hold the light cause it's late evening and dark. Oreo was on his desk trying to pull daddy's jacket so I started petting him and scratching behind his horns. He started pulling on my shirt and when I looked up at daddy oreo nipped me. Goats don't have top front teeth so they can grip plants and use the bottom ones to cut the grass or leaves off the main plant.
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Nothing really exciting has happened as of late. I got a welder machine for Christmas though. For those of you who don't know I have welded a bit before and hopefully this spring I'll be taking another class for more industrial type welding. Who knows maybe I'll be posting about welding projects in the future! My first project will be our goats big gate for their large pasture. We've been keeping them in a smaller pen while we've fenced in the back of our property and the gate doesn't quite touch the post when you close it so Oreo and Franny have escaped a couple times. I don't have a recent pic of him but his winter coat has fully grown in and he's super fluffy! He's so cute! But he can be a real butthole.😆
All of our hens are laying and I'll probably be ordering some hatching eggs soon to add to our flock. Maybe I'll post about their growth as I incubate them and yall can see them grow! I may also hatch a few of my hens eggs for fun. Definitely need an additional coop though as Sampson hasn't been getting along with his father Tulip lately. He's been chasing him out of the coop and into the woods so he needs his own coop and hens now.
I think that's all for now.
