The Last Breath of Eutychus

Eutychus has been very ill with scours for nearly two months now. Unfortunately, he passed away this morning. Here are a few paragraphs about his life.

Eutychus was born on a bright May day. He was a strong eager little buckling that surprised us with his arrival. We only knew that his dam, April, was pregnant a week or two before she had him! Eutychus stole our hearts with his unique markings and sweet personality.

Eutychus was the friendliest baby we’ve ever had. He would leave the herd to follow anybody who walked by. It was not a rare sight to see a child on a bicycle with Eutychus running close behind!

A few months ago he became sick. We learned a lot while trying to nurse this kid back to health. Unfortunately, our treatments didn’t seem to help and this morning, August 19th, we found Eutychus in a coma-like state. We were blessed to have had him pass with minimal suffering.
