But, his issues were skunks, which he just couldn't leave alone. His record was 5 sprayings in a 2-week period. <br /><br />And, of course, always in the middle of the night - out came the perioxide, baking soda, dash of dish soap, and warm water.

The other one would dive right into the push, you could here her running around and barking up trouble before running back with her face to the ground. The last time was so bad, she obviously tried to bite the porcupine and had a mouthful of quills right at the back of her tongue. Vet had to put her under in order to get them all.<br />We also had a horse that got to curious when a porcupine tried going through the pasture...ended up with a noseful.Norma from Misty Haven Alpacashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528304751819069504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-46397282738162578572012-04-12T22:21:17.243-04:002012-04-12T22:21:17.243-04:00ouch! -- Hope the imbed sites don't get infect...ouch! -- Hope the imbed sites don't get infected...<br /><br />So. If you turn a porcupine inside-out, does that make it a Pin-cushion..? [bad needle-humour]<br /><br />you know, it could have been worse...

So I think they are doing their job and making those pokey porkies move right away. Those pokey porkies will learn to stay out of Archie and Winston territory.<br /><br />I love your blogs. I look for them every day. I love reading and staying in tune with your farm, family and your love of yarny and fibery goodness.<br /><br />RubyRubyChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886738178473797806noreply@blogger.com
