Spring has arrived, we finally have a Dexter calf, she was born the 17th of January. I was so thrilled to find her, Logan still talks about the sound I made as I was calling him to come see.
We have a little 1/2 Nigerian Dwarf 1/2 Pygmy buckling, born March 27th, he is the spitting image of his daddy,Shadow. We still haven't come up with a name for him so we've been calling him Shadow Jr. His momma has blue eyes so I'm hoping he'll carry the gene and thru them in the future.
On sunday 11th of April, a Nigerian Dwarf doeling was born to one of the does I got two months ago. She is an adorable black & white, w/ frosted ears & muzzle and w/ blue eyes just like her momma.
One of our Katahdin ewes also had a lamb on the 11th, again a little ewe.......... She is so pretty, snow white. Her name is Lila after my Granny (4/12/22-5/22/08) who's b-day is the 12th of April. She would have been 88 this year.
At last count we have 40 chicks hatched out, Americanas, Araucanas and Bantam Cochins.
If all goes well, we'll have Cayuga, Buff and Muscovy ducklings as well as Turkey poults soon.
The geese are setting on their eggs and I have a few in my incubator.
