When the sun shines or it rains - the exciting and the boring of my life.

They have EARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Photobucket
Sugar, our registered Saanen doe, had twins a boy and a girl. They seem huge compared to our Lamancha cross kids. Yes, they are very cute but I still prefer the ones without ears. The buck is for sale if anyone is interested 50 dollars now seventy five as he gets older more if we are able to registered him.

Duckies

Photobucket

The ducks I got a month ago are getting huge. They now have run of the yard and the pond. They are very spoiled and like to be fed out of your hand. We are pretty sure they are a pair. The goats stepped on ones leg and broke it, we taped it up so it couldn't use that leg and now you can hardly tell which leg it was.

New Barn

We are working on a new barn. It should be completed in the next week or so. It will probably be used as a milking and kidding barn mainly. As most of our goats stay outside all the time with little sheds in their pens. I can't wait until this is done. We also are in a process of trying to figure out what goats to keep and which to sell it looks like Jasper may be moving on in a attempt to get new blood in our herd.

The three kids are getting quite big now they are full of energy and love to play. They follow you all over the yard seeing how they are bottle fed. If you sit down, they might just jump all over you. My brothers are working on building a small barn which will hopefully be done within the next month or so. Sugar is looking more and more ready to kid with each passing day. I am really in love with Firefliy's kid, Angelfly. I love her coloring and her personality.

Is it spring yet?

Photobucket

Blue seems to think so, by strutting around the yard and challenging anything that comes along including us. But this has made for awesome pictures of him trying to attack me. We are waiting for our hen to starting laying as they only lay in the spring and early summer. This breed is believed to have originated in Mexico about 2000 years ago. It is quite rare this days due to the commercial breeds of turkeys.








Photobucket

Well I can't resist sharing these two pics of our kid goats along with the turkey. They are growing very fast.
