Goat Problem -

When I went into the barn

in the evening,

Alice, our remaining old goat,

had the left side of

her head, shoulder, and leg

covered in blood and

was standing in a pool

of blood. 

She looked dreadful.

After a lot of careful cleaning

I did not find any cuts.

I think that it was 

a damaged horn.

She only has part horns

as one was almost totally

broken and the other about half broken

Each time there has been

a lot of blood but never as much

as last night.

I am hoping she will be

looking better tomorrow!

(No, you do not want to see what I saw!)
