Chick time!

Well it is that time again . . . chicks! We have the incubator full! We have 5 frizzle eggs and 32 EE/Amerucana eggs! First hatch is set for April 6, Second one is April 13 and the last one is April 16. Hopefully we will have a good one. 

I have already starting lining up my eggs for May, I am planning 12 assorted turkey eggs, 20 bantam cochins and the rest I am not sure of yet! 

I am looking for homes for Coco's baby boys (Cowboy and Danny). They can go as bucks or wethers. Either way, they will make wonderful pets. They are so friendly and cute, it will be hard to see them go!

New Beginnings

Well, we would like to say goodbye to Ariana and Willow. The set of identical twins. They were picked up by their new family, the Seats, yesterday. We wish them all the best with their new pets. 

Stella misses them this morning, but her crying should not last long, as we discovered she is in heat. ::shakes head:: miniature goats are just crazy when it comes to breeding.

Our next set of babies, Midnight and Ash will be going to their new home next weekend. And Coco's babies will be pictured and posted for sale soon. 

Well I guess if we kept all the babies we had we would be completely overrun with goats. So selling them is not such a terrible thing.  

Yeah babies!

Thank goodness we had a snow day today. We were both able to be there for little coco when she gave birth. It was nerve racking and exciting all at the same time. Both kids are doing well. We have two bucklings. One is black and the other appears to be dark chocolate. I am sure that coco will be a great little mommy! She even gets to stay in the basement tonight (she's just a touch spoiled) 

Coco not only had Chris and I there with her, but her foster daddy Sprocket was waiting at the top of the stairs for her to have her babies safely (he is such a mush)

Well here are the babies!
