New Chicks And A New Dexter.

 Well another December Dexter is here. its almost like clockwork huh?  Looks like a heifer this time, seems like its been bulls for the last three or four!  Yay !!

I just went out and checked , and momma and baby are fine, in fact the baby is up and walking all over the pasture, with or without mamma's permission.

Here is the last calf born in July I think, checking out the new friend.  Not the size on him, he will be one of the mini -sized Dexters, his mama has had nothing but smaller sized calves.  This heifer was borm this morning and she is almost as tall as him, curious indeed.

And of course Tanner in the background, he's mad because I won't let him in the back pasture to get stomped, how cruel I am.
 Anyway stay tuned I will get better pics when the other camera gets home, lol.


The New Chicks!

We got a new batch of chicks this week , all the old hens are running out of eggs hehehhe, so time for a new set of layers.

So in about four or five months, more eggs!  Can't beat that!

The only trick now will be keeping these little jokers warm enough, they are in the barn with two heat lamps on them, hope that's enough!    As always , I'll keep you posted!

Never Any Spare Time On The Farm.

 With the garden going full tilt this year and all the canning and that I haven't had too much time to post, and that is still the case, so instead a picture montage for your viewing pleasure!
 My sister got a nice DSLR camera a while back and she lets me use it now and again, until I can get one of my own! I took some Photography back in high school, but that don't make me Ansel Adams then does it??  lol!

So tell me what you think, go ahead, I can take it!!  And Enjoy!

Well there you go, and I will see ya soon !

New Farm Pix

Lets see ,from the top we have A few muscovy ducklings, Hatched by the mama duck. Cute now but wait till you see them grown up, But thats for another post.

Second from the top we have Darlin and Clemetine, our two mini donkeys. They are just the nicest animals you can have...as long as your not a canine... they don't like the dogs!

Next comes two little goats that someone brought to us , they found them orphaned so we bottle fed them for several weeks... now you can't escape from them, they follow you everywhere.

And lastly one of our Dexters, smaller than your average cow they are. This one had a heifer this year, black just like mama!
