Tasty Acres Homestead (From 2020 jump to 2023)

You will need considerably more land for the Kikos.
The other breeds you can hay and feed on small lots but not the Kiko. Do you all have a way of leasing some of the land around you?

You may want to consider a tank for AI. This way you don't have to keep 3 bucks.

Obers are really cool goats. BUT I am not going there and adding a whole other breed. I said that outloud so that in the future my goatie friends will help me stay accountable. You know how it is with goat addicts.

We are talking to our neighbors about leasing some of there land if that doesn't work then the kikos will have to wait till we get more land.

Out of all the goats I have had my oberhasli is favorite but miss Naomi is also pretty close up there even though she is a stubborn little brat she always finds a way to sqeeze into my heart.

A lot has happened in the last few days.

We got a tractor. We have had it for 3 days and I have still not been allowed to drive itIt is hard to wait to drive it.(It looks like a lot of fun to drive). Dad has driven it a bunch. The fist time dad hopped up on it he got on two wheels . I was out clearing property yesterday. Got a lot done. It is going to be a lot more work than what we were expecting but now since we have the tractor things will go alot faster.

This picture is from when we first started on the property.

Next pictures of what it looks like now

That looks like a lot of clearing.

So happy you got a tractor! You all will really need that!
So what is next on the agenda?
You are clearing but what is this part for?
Then what comes next?

We are clearing the whole front for the drive way.
After we have the drive way in we start on putting up the shop. Then we will start fencing and other things that need done.

I agree, wish I had a tractor. Lots of things here would go MUCH faster with a tractor and backhoe. Maybe he isn't letting you drive it just yet BECAUSE he got it up on 2 wheels. Kinda scary, probably wants to make sure he knows its limits so he can teach you how to stay within them. HE doesn't want to go over and he DOUBLE that doesn't want one of his kids to. Make sure you have the seatbelt on and ROPS up (if it is foldable) when you do. Safety first

When does the Yurt go up? Gotta get tight in that trailer after a bit given the size of your family.
