It's a Girl!
Neel came home from work Friday afternoon to find a healthy new heifer calf sleeping next to her mom. Although we would prefer to be here for every birth, this is really the next best thing! This little girl will grow up right here on the farm and become a wonderful addition to our herd.

Spring Fever
It was always a dream of mine to have pygmy goats....all the years I rode and worked in the hunter/jumper world I would try and convince anyone who would listen that the horses would benefit from having them around. We finally got two Nigerian Dwarf wethers in 2008, followed quickly by a doe we rescued from a local shelter (what's one more?), and shortly thereafter we were joined by her kid (guess that explains the weight gain!). They have proven to be excellent roommates for Pebbles, who is so enamored with them she puts up with the kind of daily shenanigans shown above...
