Well, I decided to try out a blog for our farm- not sure if I will like it or not- but you just never know until you try! So.......here it is.
We're in our 'down time' on the farm, where our daily chores take up most of our time. I cannot wait until winter is over. We are due to start lambing at the beginning of April, and the goats will begin freshening soon after. The cows are due to calve sometime in the spring. We are also going to be breeding one of our new purebred Tamworth sows in order to have a litter of pigs in the spring. Our poultry will all start laying fairly soon- so the incubator will have to be brought out of storage to be put in use once again this spring.
We should have a bumper crop of animals born the spring. I can hardly wait.
