Spring is in the kitchen...

Wednesday, 28 April 2004 11:59 P GMT-05
The title for today is sort of funny, sort of sad... my first horse's name was Spring, at one time, in our other house, I used to keep him on the screened in porch in inclimate weather (I'm not kidding!).  I can remember several times when I'd have

Rabbit updateHermione and the babies are still doing good.  We did lose the two smallest ones and there is one other that isn't quite as vigorous as I would like.  We took Hermione out and let the weakest one nurse alone to see if that would help a

A whole lot of planting going onThe front yard is starting to take shape.  We planted mini-mondo grass around the edge of the driveway and it looks really nice.  It ties into one of the side gardens and really makes it tie together nicely.  We've

RabbitsI went out to check on Penny (baby Angora rabbit) as she'd been a little under the weather last night, and when I checked in on Hermione she'd had her babies!!  She had ten!!  So far they are all doing really well.  Hermione had not made th

A Hoof TrimmingWe did the sheep and the goatlings' feet today.  I still have Wakka and 2 of the yearlings, but we'll get them in the morning.  The sheep were not very happy about the whole thing, but they are much easier to handle than the goats, a

Not my favorite farm chore

Tuesday, 20 April 2004 11:59 P GMT-05
Today we're planning to finish up trimming the goats' feet.  It is one of my least favorite farm chores.  The Obers haven't had their feet done in a while (we've only had them 3 weeks and I don't know when they had been trimmed before that) and it'

Goats at play and photos

Every evening around 7:15 the goats have a major frolic.  We noticed that they do it a couple days ago, and have made a habit of going out after supper to watch their antics.  It's quite hilarious!While I was attempting to put photos on here earlie
