This really shows how big Miss Ezzy really is. Ariel is older by a bit, and, of course, hasn’t been as “privileged “ as Ezzy… I’m glad to hear you’re waiting a few more months before weaning her. This was a remarkable introduction. Congratulations, Shae! You have a beautiful herd. Ariel will come around. She’s doing so well. This may have sparked a moment of independence but she’s shown herself to be smart and willing. Well done!
