RPC~ Picture of our 4-H wether

[Roll farms]

Monday night at the Council meeting I said something like, "Let's keep this short and sweet, I have to get home and feed the kids." Someone asked how many kids I had and I said 6, and they thought I meant human.

A while later, we were signing up for different project check ins and someone suggested I take one that started at 8am. I told them, "That's a bit too early for me, I have to milk 7 goats, feed the 6 kids, the 35 or so adults, the 100 or so chickens, 20 rabbits, etc. before I can leave." and someone said, "OH my GAWD, that sounds miserable."

MISERABLE? I wasn't complaining, I was explaining....I love doing it (I'd have to or I'd have quit wayyy before now....lol)

I'm w/ you, Roger....why play Farmville when we get to live it in real life???

The kids are out today so besides brushing and taking general care of their goats we weighed all the kids and trimmed their hooves. I dont have a lit of time so this will be a fast post.

Kids weights

Caliber-73 pounds
Cookie Dough-69 pounds
Bonequiqui-73 pounds
Marsha-62 pounds
Jan-61 pounds
Cindy-50 pounds
Porsche-34 pounds
Jager-43 pounds

Well that's all I have for now.

What do you think of Caliber? He was 73 pounds on Saturday and he was born December 8th, 2011. I think he is looking awesome but what do you think?

Hubba Hubba!

You've done a fine job, Rog. He looks good! No denying that that's Bullitt's child, either...look at that head!

Thanks everyone. He is for sure bullitt's son. I think that almost every day. We were looking at your website this weekend and I was showing the kids who the dams and sires were of our kids and Kerigan commented about how much he looks like Bullitt. Poor guy probably thinks he is ugly on the other side since i always make him stand so I can get pictures of his spot. But you gotta love his single spot in his cape. Hopefully he passes some spots on to some kids this next year. I hope Jager gives us some surprises also.

We finally got rain. I don't think I have ever been so excited to see gray sky's in my life. Its been about 3 weeks so it was long over due. The yard already looks greener. Since it was raining and we couldn't deliver a wagon of hay to the neighbors I went up to rural king and got some much needed supplies. I stocked up on some wormer, got another water bucket, mane n tail shampoo, pro bios, and some smaller clippers for their faces and around their hooves. I can not wait to try them out but I will have to wait till atleast this weekend. I think we might shave Bonequiqui, I bet he will look a lot different. Well enjoy your night everyone.
