Always Something Happening on the Farm!

Look who arrived! The first little heifer for this year. Busters first calf! :) She is so sweet!

Little Josie.. :)

Bonding time :)

Josie sneeks outside the fence for a quick snooze, while all her seven "mothers" keep a close eye on her.

The fun part is when you get to help with the bottle feeding! :)

We recently had to put a ring in Buster's nose. Jersey bulls are known to be the meanest out of all cattle breeds and he was already starting to get a little ornery. The chain prevents him from charging, cause he would just end up stepping on it. He has mellowed down a lot and still loves his back scratches! :)

The hens are laying really well. We get around 25 dozen a day, which keeps us busy sorting and boxing eggs. 

Poppy's Puppies Are Finally Here!!

Poppy gave birth to 3 healthy puppies. but she ended up having complications on having the fourth one. We ended up having to take her to the vet to get the last three out. She went through the operation very well! She lost the puppy that she had problems with, but we were happy that they were able to save the two puppies that were still unborn. 

Look how tiny they are! Five healthy puppies - two boys and three girls. We got one of each color...  silver dapple, chocolate dapple, cream piebald, cream and a red. 

Poppy is being such a good Mommy!

These two are minis of Poppy and Pepper. 

Puppy Dreams!

Growing so fast!

 We decided to keep the red one, but the rest will be up for sale when they are old enough. Be sure to let me know if you are interested as I know they will be going fast! :)
