    Auction (rant)

    omg I want him he is too cute! I would have defiantly bought him. I told hubby that we can get a pig as long as it stays little I don't want a hog, then he can get hogs to butcher but only after me and the son get a little pet one. I think it sounds reasonable to me.

    The Never-ending Post Hole Augering Drama at Lupin Farm

    lol yea we can build our barn in pieces without a permit because it is an ag building as long as it is under a designated sg ft area per section. And we have at least a month or so of time before we add another section. If we add power that needs to be inspected. It is really silly how they...

    The Never-ending Post Hole Augering Drama at Lupin Farm

    I would love to use and auger for our posts, but nope I got the old two handled post digger. I have got another 1000ft of fence roughly to put in. A run in to build and a goat barn and a huge hen house to finish all before snow flies. I truly think only about half the fence is going in this...

    Homemade Roundpens, has anyone made one?

    thats what I thought when he said it but I didn't say anything I didn't want to come off as rude. Maybe I will just do a "by the way do you think that going to be safe for them?" Kinda deal when I see him this weekend. I really don't want to piss him off though seeing how the guys who delivered...

    Homemade Roundpens, has anyone made one?

    our neighbor is building one over the summer out of railroad ties for the posts and oak 1x6x what ever the length needs to be. Sounds like it is gonna be really hard core if you ask me but I could post some pics of it when he gets it done if you like. He rides bulls as a hobby and I don't half...

    So have I finally found a good horse? (A few pics added)

    Congrats on the new horse she is gorgeous. It is good to hear you found one that you can really bond with. I joke that my boy is my soul mate. It is really nice to have one you can trust completely and you sound like you are well on your way to that. It will only get better with time and she...

    New Mare was sold as "bombproof" How do I...

    I totally agree that you can never know what an animal went though before it made it to you. We have rescued horses, we have bought from auctions where animals are known to go to butcher as well as ones that could either no longer be kept by their owners of were fokes that frankly just should...

    Hoof trimming

    we have 4 horses. 3 of which are rescues. I trim all of them myself as and also do all of our goats feet as well. But those are a totally different ball game. I feel very comfortable doing them myself having farrier friends teach me how to do it. I do have one though that I would much rather...

    Goats AT Auctions!!!:)

    Around here they usually end up at sales because they are considered a by product of freshening a dairy goat. They usually are bills but sometimes you will see nans. They are normally smaller then what the breeder wants to have or not the desired color.
