August 2, 2007: Seven-legged lamb
http://cellar.org/2007/7leglamb.jpg
Oh this one's so obviously eaten by the second comment that I'll point it out to start: leg of lamb for the whole family AND the neighbors. This one comes from the Telegraph, via Spluch, and it's featured today instead of tomorrow because the lambykins was to be put down. Quote:

That is so sad. :(

BOOOOOO!!!
Jeers to Undertoad, for making jokes about this very serious, very sad subject. It has a sad little look on its face! |
You all can make fun of me if you want (not saying you were, Flint), but this picture almost has me in tears.
|
I'm not saying you said I was, but I'm not. I wouldn't make fun of you for having compassion for the suffering of a sentient being.

This is a sad sight; I understand you completely, Shawnee. I wouldn't go for UT's throat, though. It is interesting as well as distressing, and perhaps a touch of levity might help to deal with it. Besides, he was mainly pointing out what The Telegraph had stated.
That said, I may use that tissue for my eyes instead of my nose right about now. :mecry: |
UT knows we would never go for his throat. We're more the castrating type. ;)
No, I understand about joking about dark things. I was just pointing out how very sad it is to me. |
Here, this might come in handy ;) (You can hate me all you want)
INGREDIENTS: * 1 leg of lamb, about 5 to 6 pounds * salt and pepper * 3 to 4 garlic cloves, crushed * 1 can (10 1/2 ounces) condensed beef broth * 1 soup can water * 2 tablespoons vinegar * 1 onion, sliced PREPARATION: Rub leg of lamb with salt, pepper, and crushed garlic. Add beef broth, water, vinegar, and onion slices to the roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer into thickest part of the lamb, not touching bone. Put lamb in preheated 450° oven and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° and continue roasting until thermometer registers 145° to 150° for medium-rare, or 160° to 170° for well-done. Serve garnished with fresh parsley, if desired. If desired, simmer and reduce drippings, skim fat, and serve with the lamb. Serves 8. |
No protest from the Royal Society to Save Freaks of Nature yet on the destruction?
Seven legged lamb that would have exploded from it's digestion backing up has to be some sort of sign of the Apocalypse. |

Can it walk?
How did it get that old without being able to pass feces? That's just a flat out weird looking sight. Octolamb. Minus one. |
As a general rule, the life span of a lamb on a farm isn't all that long to begin with.
And I think it's kind of cute the way it is. I hope it's not in any pain though. |
Old friend of mine had a baby with several birth defects, including an imperforate anus. The baby didn't make it. But I know that, for a while, the docs connected her bowel to her vag so that she could defecate there. Yup. And then they were waiting til she got stronger so they could operate and construct a hole, but she never got strong enough, and died 3 mos later.
