Straw Hat Kikos

Yeah I just love that new phrase! I might have to pull a "Straw Hat" tonight if my sheep doesn't go today! Or maybe if we are referring to lambs it should be called a "BonBean" With a "BonBean" you don't use a dog, you use a shotgun.

Congratulations Straw, they are all so very cute. Now I really need to come by, who can resist seeing 7 cute little kids. So the one born with the meconium is doing ok?

Man...I ALWAYS miss EVERYTHING! Took me a few to get caught up, but let me just say CONGRATULATIONS Straw! So many adorable babies! (My fav is the little doe that looks like Moses!) I'm glad to hear all the moms are doing well...and kids are all healthy and strong. And I wlil say both Callie and D have impressed me! Gus would've probably done something STUPID, like tried to play with the new kids, but not your Callie! GOOOOD girl! Soooo sweet. And I LOVE all of the photos! Ok...back to work now. HOpefully I won't miss anything else.
Congrats again!

Loved the photos!!! They are so cute!!!! Congratulations!!!!! Now thinking blue for your next ones!!!!

And pulling a "Straw Hat" with lovely dogs is so much better than pulling a "Bonbean" ...and it is a rifle, not a shotgun... more accurate should a coyote show up in the scope...so far have not seen a coyote at lambing, but heard tons past few years...this year not.

Thank you all! I'm about to go out and take care of all the animals but I've already been told that Sis' kids are running around and playing and of course headbutting. I'll get more of the second group now that they are all dried off better and you can see them more. btw they all slept out back in their stalls with no lamp or extra care. Just them and their mothers.

@Shelly
Yeah I can pay money if no bucks. That is an option. Me wash them? pppffttttt

haha So we have a "Straw Hat" which means to sleep out with the goats and a "bonbean" which is to sleep out with the sheep. I use dogs and she a rifle.

@Tmaxson
Yes she is doing great. I really hope it stays that way too. I think it will. Even though she was born that way she was the fastest to her feet, the fastest to walk, and the fastest to start getting milk so she is a strong girl! She's also the biggest of all four. And yes! You must stop by.

@Coco
Both her and D were so good. I can't believe Cal was so good though. She really loves them and seems to think they are hers. She licks them clean anytime they get near her. btw Gus would be great. She's a good dog!

@20kids
Thank you! Me too. Would have stunk if she did that in the middle of the night with nobody there because I'm sure the first would have died. But now all are good.


Ok here is a comparison of Moses and now his daughter.

They do look identical. At least you know what color she will turn to.
