Where did we go?

Have we been slacking on posting or what? Here is a quick recap on what's been going on.





We took a trip to West Virginia to visit our friends that used to live in Richmond. They went from living in the West End to what they now refer to as Possum Living. It's an interesting and admirable adventure they are on you can see at http://againstthegrainhomestead.blogspot.com/  . Hopefully they will be coming to visit us soon.






Our Babies are getting bigger. We have named the 2 new goats Betty(White) and Wilma(Brown). They are very sweet but Betty is more like her mom in that she is a little shy and Wilma although she looks exactly like Pebbles is completely different in her personality. She is very sweet.






We have placed an order for our spring chickens. They should be here mid February. We got more layers and a few Roosters to try and maintain our own stock and maybe even have a few chick to sell.

Our Bourbon Red Turkeys we got in the fall have gotten very big. We ended up losing 1 but the 4 that are remaining are doing great! We have 1 Gobbler and 3 hens so I am hoping for a productive spring!

Here is Bobby and his three ladies!



And our baby girl has her first Tooth! She is getting so big now. She is 7 months old and weighs in at 20 pounds.
