Abby's kids

And these are Abby's 2 little bucklings. They both look just like her but the one nursing is a little clone. Same coloring and everything. The little one laying down has a more reddish-tan colored stripes and belly like John Henry/ Both are adorable. And for sale. If anyone needs a great herd sire, these would be wonderful. Abby is registered and I am supposed to be getting papers on John to get him registered too. Let me know if you need a good herd sire.

Penelope and her new kids

She finally had her kids this morning, about 7:30. So did Abby. In the same stall at about the same time. All 4 kids were still wet. Abby was trying to steal Penelope's kids. So I had to put Trudy and her kids out of their stall and put Penelope in there with her kids.

The one on the lfet is a buckling. Looks just like Arlo Guthrie. Even has the ears.

The one on the right is the doeling. She has elf ears like her momma. They are both SO cute!

And the little doeling will be for sale as soon as anyone would like to have her. Just let me know. She is about half Boer and some Lamancha and Nubian and Alpine mix. Penelope has an amazing udder and was really easy to milk already.  

Some snow

We got a little snow today. It was SO cold. The snow came and went a few times. There is still a little in the shady areas. I am so ready for summer. Just skip spring and get right into summer please! I am freezing. And our wood heater flue pipes are full of creosote buildup so we had to take all the wood out and take the pipes out. So no wood heat. Back to the darned ole heat pump. And it's cold! I was so liking the wood heat. I guess one day we can get someone out here to properly fix it to where it doesn't do this again. I am not sure why it gets the creosote built up in the pipes. This has happened before. And those pipes aren't cheap.

So I think I am ready for some warm weather. And I sure hope and pray my goats and sheep wait til Spring to have babies. I really will never breed them again so early. Never again. It's just too cold for babies to be born right now. I can hear the wind howling out there.
