Thanks to Howard for helping get Eva all bandaged up! She's due back at the vet in a few weeks for a new cast since she will soon outgrow the current one. We'll keep you up-to-date on her progress.

Eva Update!
A few weeks ago we came down to the barn in the evening to find little Eva with a broken leg. She was all over the barn yard that day romping around and playing with Samuel, so it was heartbreaking to see her having a hard time walking. Keeping with the Ledford tradition of animal emergencies only happening during holiday events or parties, we were celebrating Lillian's birthday. Since it was Saturday, the vet was closed. Fortunately Lillian's boyfriend Howard is an avid outdoors-man and is skilled in field dressing breaks and wounds. He was able to set Eva's leg and wrap it up with splints and athletic tape. On Monday we brought her to Dr. Hagan's office to make sure the make-shift cast will hold. With a thumbs-up from the vet we brought Eva home. Even though her leg is broken, she still keeps up with her brother!
