Four Winds Ranch
Loving the herd life
Well, as for Albertan weather, centeral anyway, it is horrible this year for hay!!! Average of +20 and rain/thunder storms every evening pretty much! Here is to hoping August will be warm!!!HoneyDreameMomma said:We have a 'ornamental' barnyard mix flock with a Speckled Sussex roo with five hens: Gold-Laced Wyandotte, Silver Laced Wyandotte, New Hampshire Red, Red Sexlink and Black Orpington. We were trying out a variety of breeds to see what we liked best - probably going to stick with the Speckled Sussex and Black Orpington breeds in the future. Then, our young flock is all Marans - 19 of them (black, blue and splash). We have one pearl guinea, one purple, and 5 chocolate - we weren't particular on colors for those, just wanted the excellent grasshopper control they provide.
Our goats are Nigerian Dwarfs. We love how playful they are. What are your goats like?
Hi to Four Winds Ranch as well. Never been to Alberta, but always wanted to. What's the weather up there like right now? We're just headed into a triple digit hot spell - it's the only time of year I laugh at myself for choosing to live in Texas; most of the time, I love it.
