[@MarqusW1]

Our boy Ernie looks MUCH better!!! We will NEVER forget our dear Okie...

[@miriamdekoningh9511]

I’m sorry I am behind with all the videos, what happened to Okie?

[@lisagoodman1848]

​@miriamdekoningh9511 he ended up passing away to the barberpole worm. Ernie had it to but still fighting!!

[@deborahhickey8223]

Watch ISS Midnight Rescue video all about Okie&Ernie. It's still touch and go with Ernie he's getting better each day. They have made alot of improvements to LHL for the better. ​@miriamdekoningh9511

Love seeing Ernie with oatmeal❤❤ Prayers continuing ❤❤

[@Mandsb69]

LESTER...Ernies face was just so cute, I'm so glad he is eating heaps of oatmeal and smiling too, I love him soo much ❤❤

[@theresauhlenhake3822]

Poor Ernie. He can’t even have a bite of oatmeal. All he gets is a bite from Annie. Continuing praying for Ernie. Starla is a good mom. I’m glad Starbuck is doing fine. Glad they all got home safely even with the few bumps in the road lol

[@ritaeddins]

So adorable 🥰 Ernie makes me happy!!

[@nancarpowits6011]

Boy, such a rollercoaster with poor Ernie. I hope it won't be too long before he starts continually improving. Dinky and Starbuck look good. I'm so happy that their surgeries went well. Take care❤

[@nancysimpson4246]

Good afternoon Lester, Jamie, and all the babies look at little Ernie. I think you’re onto something Lester. I think that’s going to help him pull through. Let’s pray.😊🙏 they love that oatmeal and it’s so good for them Annie needs to be nice

[@bettyfreeman9253]

I am glad Ernie likes oatmeal. I love all the babies!

[@edensgarden1775]

Poor Ernie. Annie you be nice!!! Ernie looks so cute with oatmeal on his face. Too sweet. Ernie is such a handsome Alpaca. I want to pet him, hug him and love on him. Enjoy your day. P.S. Dinky Daryl looks good!!!

[@user-py2oc8fx7f]

Jason and Brooke were blown away by your generous offer to deliver a load of hay to them. ❤

[@lorettablakeman3335]

[@kellydiamond7250]

They’re fortunate to have great friends like Lester and Jami

Who is Jason and Brooke?

[@janetbarnhardt3298]

Never mind, Cog Hill.

[@sharonspurvey2750]

Poor Ernie, Annie wants it all to herself. Lester you are going to have to teach her to share with others. I just love to see all the animals up and moving around even though some are a little slow, but I know with all your help they are going to make it and be happy! ❤❤❤

[@daniellewoolley8607]

@sharonspurvey 27 don't forget Annie is eating for two, she mean or greedy.

[@sharonspurvey2750]

@@daniellewoolley8607 I did forget that she is eating for two, thanks for reminding!

[@cindyragsdale2144]

I'm not sure you can "teach" Annie anything. She strikes me as a "I do what I want" kind of girl.😊

[@terramarini6880]

She's pregnant and has a hankering for the stuff she needs too. Indie seemed indifferent, perhaps because she does not have a need for iron?

[@aliciareyna4342]

Oh wow, I am so happy to see Ernie loving him some oatmeal. Move over, Trudy. we have another oatmeal lover in the house. Ernie looks so cute. ❤❤❤❤

[@karenowen7635]

It's good to see Ernie is doing better. His cute little oatmeal face. Ernie has the sweetest personality. Annie is expecting again, that's great.❤

[@mary3950]

All the babies look Great! The cement pad was an awesome idea, it looks great, I bet clean up is so much easier. The Pigs look so Happy. Ernie is so adorable. Glad he is on his way to recovery.

[@evekankam6744]

Poor Ernie,it has really drained him,glad he has found a taste for the oatmeal.Most of the babies have an addiction to oatmeal,could be worse😁.Love that the feed station is working out ,you should do it for the horses as well,stop that area getting muddy. Lovely video,and love it that in the animal world,Mum still worries about her boy went he not 100%♥️.

[@nancyhebert9042]

Ernie likes the oatmeal too that's so cute. Glad Dinky Daryl is doing good today hope the other 3 are doing as well as he is. Love them all ❤

[@christinainyeg]

I feel so bad for Ernie, he’s such a sweet, easy going soul and every time he makes a move he’s always got one eye on Annie.

[@TracyH007]

I hope Ernie feels better by the hour. The concrete pad looks like it's working out as intended 😁👍🏼. And it's pretty. I know goats are very sensitive to any medical procedures. Hopefully Starbuck feels better today. Thanks for the updates 💕. Have a Great day!

[@jansmall72]

Love is so adorable that's good Earni have his oatmeal that means he feels better praying for Ernie get well soon Lester

[@debbyalden55]

Ernie looks so cute with oatmeal on face. Glad he is feeling better

[@rebeccareed6824]

It sure is good to see our sweet boy Ernie looking better. Does my heart good.

[@suzanneseiple191]

It’s funny how most of the babies if not all of them like the oatmeal 😅 I’d see the geese, ducks, turkeys and hens eating it at ISS as well 😂❤❤❤

[@KyFlGurl2024]

Soooo happy to see Ernie anxious to eat!!! 😊 And that he really loves it.

[@jenp9022]

Poor Ernie. He has been so ill his recovery is going to take some time. Slow and steady.

[@BrandyinIndy]

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@jakesbel8237]

As someone who has to have iron infusions, it takes energy to hold your head up. Fatigue is real worse than being pregnant. It takes about 3 to 6 weeks after my infusions to feel good again.

[@chi4ever982]

Me too! It's silly to me now, but I can remember wanting to cry just because I had to be up and sitting in a chair. You just feel unbelievably exhausted.

[@BilliePennyH]

Poor Ernie, Annie biting his ear over the oatmeal. Yes, oatmeal is a good source of iron. 🙂 The feeding station looks great! Starla taking care of her baby boy, She is a good Mama. ❤️

[@AlineJoyGoodchild]

I love Ernie’s face covered in oatmeal. Continued prayers for him and all the boys that were snipped this week including Dinky Darrel. Blessings all.

[@JoyceCunningham-hm3fh]

Good to see Ernie still eating away , its good for him,continuing prayers for Ernie ....xxxx

[@JulieRacette]

Sept, 18, 2024. Hahaha Annie the Alpca is a bad ass when it comes to her oatmeal. I am sorry to hear that Ernie may not be feling well, but when it's hot or humid, that may not help either, May I sugest that you put another fan in the loafing shed, to give more air, and move the air circulation around. I hope for speedy recovory for Ernie. Thank you for the update, of Ernie, the new concrete pad, and the other animals. Thank you for another great video.

[@KathieHumerick]

Ernie & his Brite smile 😂. He's so sweet. Get well Ernie 🙏

[@PattyHamlin942]

Oatmeal is so good for them ❤

[@kaylalowe724]

I started watching you when I lived in Ohio but that was back when the hurricane happened but now I live in Tampa Florida due to the accident so your videos helped me get through all the tbi “traumatic brain injury” crap ❤ so thank you

[@debbiesherman-f7o]

still praying for Ernie and loving him and all the babies

[@trudiharmon7640]

So glad all the ops went so well and the animals are recovering well. Poor Ernie he’s obviously feeling extra tired and enjoys the loafing shed and fan to stay safe and cool. So glad he’s enjoying oatmeal which will help give him good nutrition at the moment and strengthen his recovery. Continued prayers for Ernie. Peggy pig looked so cute in her spot ahead of found perfect just for her. Glad pig Trudy couldn’t wreck the feeders now long may it continue. Have a fab day take care much love God bless 🙏💕🤠

[@Abbie-UK]

Just love seeing Ernie eating , Its a up and down journey , which is normal i guess , it is a worry , but we are all with you xxx love you all xxx

[@aquariusrizing]

Everyone looks great! I'm glad Ernie is loving oatmeal...

[@abbymetzel6063]

I never thought I'd see Annie get so possessive over oatmeal 😂😂 Sheesh Annie! At least Ernie took it like a champ. I'm so happy that the new feed stations are working out well 😊 And Peggy heard you talking as was like " OK time to get up" 😊 Even Ringo was behaving himself today 😊❤ Love our Wacky Little's ❤💙 Take care and I'll catch you on the next video 😉!

[@raquelcantu8602]

Hi Lester & Jamie, so glad Ernie is looking good and Starbuck is feeling better from the surgery, ❤ love how Starla looking after her lil boy very protective of him 🥰♥️🫶🏼💕 She is such a good momma I just love Starla she has a huge personality 🤣♥️🥰🫶🏼🙌😍 Glad Dinky is doing good!!!

What a great story to share ❤😂❤🥰👍🏼🫶🏼💕And love the feeding area on the cement that’s pretty amazing ♥️🥰👍🏼😇😍

[@susanmoore369]

I looked around at all the wonderful animals and it dawned on me that longhorn Lester’s has turned in to ISS. I see our favorite animals again. I just love it. ❤❤❤

[@amyfitch3005]

💞☘🙏 for Ernie and his full recovery! We do know it's going to take him longer to get healthy than it did Voodoo. I remember hearing from you 2 that it could take upto around 7 months for complete recovery. We ❤ Ernie and are here to help you and all our babies. 💞🍀🙏 for LG too. Thanks for everything!💛💛💛

[@Sharon-f3w]

So happy Ernie is eating oatmeal! Poor guy has been thru it. Still praying for his improvement on his health and strength!

[@jessicacash7403]

Starla is such an AMAZING momma!!! ❤

[@marthareichhold8201]

Oh, I love sweet Peggy Pig! I'm so glad to see that Ernie got up ...whew!! Starla really is such an amazing Mom. ❤

[@debbiec4530]

Yeah I think you would tend to panic if you didn’t see your baby breathing! That was funny. Prayers for Ernie. Prayers for all the little donkeys that were fixed! 🤠💕 Oh and the goats too!

[@conniedowd3234]

I'm glad to see Ernie is doing better.

[@jessicacash7403]

Oh my!!! I just love Ernies face when he popped his head up! 🥰❤️🤗

[@lindarose-evans5783]

I’m happy Ernie has an appetite for oatmeal! Yum 😋 still praying for you little fella🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️

[@kristimcswain4439]

Ohhh sweet sweet Ernie….He is precious ❤️❤️❤️

[@barbaradavis4867]

Oatmeal is a good food for everyone 😊. Yeah Ernie!!

[@jansmall72]

Love that Earni had ate his oatmeal that's good that means Earni is getting better I will pray for Earni gets well soon Lester

[@jkjohnson3198]

It’s not surprising really that Ernie still feels extreme fatigue. He was very sick, and he’s still recovering. It may take a few months before he’s back to his normal self. I don’t know if you’ve ever been Death’s door sick, I have and it took me ages to fully recover, and even holding my head up took more energy than I had. Ernie is progressing a bit every day. But he has a good appetite, he’s eating foods that help his recovery. He’s drinking and toileting well. He’s loving the company of his lady and little girl. You did the right thing in bringing him to LHL’s don’t seperate them all again. I really love all of your animals, but Ernie is really special. Thanks for all you do.

[@dianesmith2480]

They are an entertaining bunch❣️

[@LyndaHarris-cj1vm]

Definitely 😂😂😂👍😎

[@suzannmiller1468]

Poor Erni i pray he comes out of his illness. Hes up and down so much it scares me. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@Joan-pw6lh]

I just love Ernie's toothy smile and oatmeal lips💋he is such a sweetie, Annie not so much today!!

[@barbaraschuette7788]

Continued prayers for a sweet boy Ernie. Give him lots of oatmeal Lester. It's good for him and it'll help put some weight on him❤

[@loisfehr7961]

Replay. The cement pad looks great!

[@trudiedunaway7223]

I’m so glad to see Ernie letting you get close, maybe he’ll be a lover with you as well as Annie.

[@patriciap8323]

You may be driving poor Ernie crazy with your worry!! LOL!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ 😂😂😂😂

[@joan.b209]

Back off Ernie, Annie's baby wants oatmeal! Funny how Annie and Ernie are both going after the oatmeal. I hope you get cooler weather to give the babies some relief. ❤

[@kellyjohnson1845]

Awe ❤❤❤ how adorable! Lester your alpacas sure love them some oatmeal! And Lester I love it that you are making some just for them today. You are awesome Lester! @longhornlesters

[@heatherprus5364]

That's neat that the alpacas like oatmeal. Ernie needs a nice bowl of his own. Annie and Indie seem to have a liking to it as well. I guess when they were all at ISS the pigs and some goats would get into a free for all! That would make me stand back. Maybe Quaker Oatmeal Company would like to do a little deal with Longhorn Lester's Piggies. 🐽 I'm truly happy when I see the pigs out in the pasture rootin' around and laying in wallows to stay cool. I am glad to took them to LHL's. They are living a life full of goodness. At first I thought they would stay laid up in one of the sheds but to see the far out in the green goodness it makes my heart happy. It's cute how they come running when you call the littles. They are getting so much exercise. Lester you and Jami are doing your very best to keep everyone happy and healthy. I love how the red feeders can't get tossed around now.

[@marymathews8421]

You have oatmeal coming to the LHL address. I don’t want Annie biting on Ernie again because she’s hungry for her oatmeal breakfast. LOL. Peggy Pig laying down in the hole and yawning was funny. Candace sure doesn’t understand that Starbuck doesn’t feel like playing today.❤❤

[@rosebud07b-smith4]

Sending prayers and hugs for Ernie it's scary seeing him flat on the ground I agree I used to hold my breath when checking on my babies to check if their chests are ginging up and down . So glad you and Jami keep eye on Erni I'd be a nervous wreck Lester.

[@annhowcroft9493]

Prayers for Ernie, we love you Ernie.

[@TerryDavison-f1k]

Hi Lester and Jami God bless y'all love y'all

[@nicolerimmer360]

Poor Ernie can't catch a break with Annie..😅 He hears his momma Jami.❤

[@shirleycarter2451]

Your new feeding set up is great 👍, and bless the boys feeling it a little gingerly today. Remember they did say it could take 6mths for Ernie to get back to himself, but think I'd be a helicopter mum if I lived with him.❤❤❤

[@hawkrose8403]

Seeing Starla protecting her son from Candy was so sweet❤

[@susanmassey9635]

I love all the animals; but Ernie is my favorite.❤❤

[@lauragyure5150]

They all look so happy and healthy 😍😍 y'all do an amazing job ❤️

[@karenlawrence1889]

So glad the new doctors and help did such a great job on Ball's Off Day.... Big hugs to the boys. Ernie baby wishing you a speedy recovery. So glad you got to eat oatmeal. You need the cinnamon one too ❤❤❤

[@ginacurtis1702]

Your and jami giving heart sure made Jason and Brooke thankful to have friends like you. ❤❤ Good to see Ernie likes oatmeal, it does a body good. Love the new feeding station. That will make so much easier.❤❤❤

[@sandrapicard422]

You say everything twice Lester!! I can’t believe miss Annie bit Ernie. Big meany!! LOL!!! Hope Ernie pulls through, poor guy!! ❤❤❤

[@lindseypacific6016]

It’s the teacher in him ❤❤❤

[@KayRemillard-nt1yk]

[@blkmjcwmn61]

Sweet Ernie! I am so glad he likes oatmeal....it is so good for him. Has a lot of iron and good to keep him "regular" which is important. I hope he gets to where he is improving steadily.

[@rosebud07b-smith4]
