Your wife must have been as excited as you were. I bet she was planning to surprise you! Happy Easter. And give your girls (horses) an extra scritch for me. I love draft horses!

That is a very nice trailer. I know a friend who has a similar one and they are nice.
Glad you feeling better.

Not to sound nosy but that Luna might need a little more weight on her.

Hope you have a great ride in the national park, you lucky dog.

Not nosy at all. Luna is an odd girl. She has a very long body and her back end is always skinny like that. She held her weight over the winter well, but always gets really fat when she goes out on pasture, which they just started this weekend. She will get really fat in her neck and over her back, but because her body is long, she really never gets a fat belly. And regardless of what we feed her, her backend always stays the shape that it is. They will be getting their annual vet check in a few weeks. Dr. Sarah will let me know how she thinks she is looking.

You should have seen her when Gentle Giants brought her to me, she was easily 300-400 lbs less than she is now. She was really skinny.

It was a beautiful weekend here. Opening Day for Little League on Saturday. Fitting in as much as I can around games, etc.

Here is what got done.

Trimmed Luna's Feet
Gave Nina her final baby cut before she delivers
Divided one horse stall in half for Nina's kidding area. Hung a heat lamp for just in case and got her all settled in.
Moved around more chcks
Sold Chicks
Had 2 of 5 Turkey Eggs Hatch (2 others fully developed, but never pipped)
Planted some new trees
My 15 yr old tilled the Garden (Got love when your kids are big enough to do the hard work)

And a surprise.... Well not really ... My French Toulouse Goose had been sitting for awhile. Was thinking it should soon. Saturday morning, this was what was going on in the Goat house.

Then the first time she brought them outside, this morning, Sunday. She is a first time mother, but a very good one.

And the group venturing out. She hatched 12 goslings, but one did not make it. Emily, wish you were closer. I need to sell some Goslings.

I have a Tufted Roman sitting on a clutch of eggs right now also. And the Brown Chinese is still laying. She has not decided to sit yet.

Wish I were closer too! Don't know why y'all gotta live so far away from me

Momma is taking really good care of her goslings.

Wow are they really green? They are so cute.

There is a law somewhere that teenagers are supposed to help with the heavy. I am sure of it. I read it somewhere.
