They are awesome! I really should get some pics up on my journal in a few days.

Wish me luck! I'm going to get a summer hair cut. :clap

Hey ya'll! I wanted to update ya'll.
First, My garden.
It is lovely and in a few weeks I will be picking grape tomatoes, figs, quam-quats,(sorry about spelling) and I've already harvested squash and peas. (these are growing too: peppers, red and green!)
(maybe blueberries next year??)
The chickens are fine. I have 2 broodies though. Jolie has decided to kick marshmellow of her clutch and now marshmellow sits in the other box with nothing. :rolleyes:
The goats are little angels. :) Kisses has a BEAUTIFUL coat and SO does Betty! They both got a hair cut yesterday. :lol: They look o.k. :D
and they both got a hoof grooming and I'm planing on taking a walk with kisses when finish these rainy days. Kisses is doing good with milking!
I get about a cup and a 1/2 a day, but sometimes it's 1 cup and 3/4. Betty is really coming around. Lately she's been wanting to get on the milk stand! I think she realized how much attention you get!
She loves brushing and is getting better with hoof grooming. I've been pretty busy myself lately. Did a big barn cleaning yesterday!

Well here is what you've been waiting for! Why NOT to disturb a broody.

Would you like to see my addition? It's a way for the chickens to get into the goat yard with out the goats getting into the coop. I can still lock the chickens up though:

:lol:

Being overrun with broodys I know exactly what it's like to disturb one, but I think they're so cute anyways!

I agree! She won't touch me, but she gets mad! Unlike Jolie who will peck me!
