Sunshine

We've had a couple of nice days - - still cold, but sunny. We are cutting and splitting wood this week. Trying to get a handle on all the logs that we have down that need to be cleaned up before Spring time. The last of my Boer goats were picked up today. I had a herd dispersal this weekend and was lucky enough to sell all of them five individuals in 4 days. Thanks to everyone who purchased my breeding stock and to all who have purchased meat goats from us in the past. After the Boer's all left, we rearranged the dairy goats in all our pastures. One group of Nigerian Dwarf goats is not too sure what to think about Scout and Spook, our Great Pyrenees livestock guardian dogs. They previously guarded the Boers. The Nigerians have always been guarded by llamas so this is new to them. They are not too happy about being in a new pasture but they will adjust in a few days. Now, everyone has lots of space and I think they will enjoy it more when Spring comes. All the new Nigerian Dwarf babies had their pictures made and they on our website! I'm still waiting on a few stragglers to kid. "Chunky Monkey" is still holding on. Now she sits like a dog in her pen on her haunches instead of the usual lay down.
