And you can expect one post per 6 weeks...

Whether the blog needs it or NOT.

Actually, I am just as bad as a correspondent unless it is in e-mail.

The news today is that we got through kidding season, so far, without a SINGLE kid death!  W00T!  Now, I'll admit that I am used to having more does kidding than this, but this makes a 5 season run.  The last five seasons that I have done kidding, I have had NO kid deaths.  Yay me!  Go Big Dude upstairs!  Go Big Dude upstairs!  [Insert image of Caliann doing the "cabbage patch" here]

Of the two does that stayed after the complete herd liquidation...Brie, my chamoisee FF, had twins, one boy, one girl, no pulling!  A quick, easy birth, even if she did chose 2 a.m. to do it!

Mardi Gras, also an FF, waited four days longer to kid QUADS!  She is a kinder, sweeter doe, and kidded just after high noon.  Also a quick and easy delivery with NO PULLING.

And now, my kidding season is OVER.  No more sleepless nights. :)

The garden is growing, new fencing is going up.  Next month, a new greenhouse is going up and I can FINALLY start moving on my new aqua-ponics system.  We have been so busy that I really haven't had time to do blogs.  ~sings~  Spring is in the air...~




Those are Brie's twins.  The chamoisee is the buckling, and the cream is the doeling.





That's Mardi Gras and her four babies, the one before the stall was cleaned up (and had ALL of them in the same picture, a feat that has been difficult to duplicate since), and the one after it was clean and Mardi could relax.

Hope everyone enjoys!
