Time flies by and I had forgotten about this blog. Sold lots of does, still have more to sell.
I bought 8 alpacas and things were going great then 3 died . Thought the world had ended.
So sad to lose animals.

Hatching chicks and keets though. They are so cute when little. One hatching is all roosters. They have to go. I have more I don't know the sex and a guinea sitting on eggs. 3 wks and hope all hatch.

Weather turned hot again, yuck!!!

Almost 2013

I can't believe I haven't posted since April!  So many changes here.  I bought 8 alpacas and lost 5 to parasites. Very sad. I sold most of my goats and bought some dairy does. My plan is to milk and make cheese and butter.
I rescued another horse, a mustang, 26 yr old named Dusty. He is gaining weight.
Still working on my house but getting a lot closer! Praise The Lord !!!

Changing animals

Well, I am selling out goats and going with alpacas. People don't eat them. Bought 8, 4 females and 4 males. Maybe two more fiber males later. One baby due any day, then breed back all four females after that. Eleven months gestation, long time, maybe sell some or kept building my herd. So far do good
