Beginnings at the Farm (Goats)

The end of September was a busy time for us --

On the 24th, Mike proposed (I said yes, of course).

On the 25th, we went goat-shopping to celebrate and brought home two registered Nigerian Dwarf goats -- Charlie & Raven.

On the 26th, thanks to borrowed money, the furnace / AC unit / ductwork went into the chinchilla barn.

On the 27th, we had a moment to breathe.

On the 28th, we closed on the farmhouse!  Who-hoo!!

We added some additional goats, first an adult female pygmy goat (Ivy) and an adult Nigerian Dwarf male (Sebastian).

We also added some younger ND's to the herd...

brother / sister buckling / doeling (brought home at 10 weeks)



four half-sister doelings brought home at 3-4 months

So now we're up to an awful lot of chickens / turkeys and 10 goats!
