And then there was one.
New mamma doe in and out of the box so much that she drug one of the babies out onto the wire the first night.
Found it dead the next morning.
Fatkins is an only child, for now.
Of course, I haven't been out to check on them yet this morning.

Happy Tuesday, ya'll

Oh, such is the way sometimes when raising animals.
I'll adjust some things when I breed her back and fully expect and big ol' litter of babies and a mamma prepared to take care of them.
Farm life, huh? lol

They are harlequins. My bff breeds them for show, I took two "rejects" based on coat pattern, bred them and created a REEALLY reject, based on coat pattern. But I LOVE it! It's kinda like Christmas every litter, you never know what you're going to get!

Bunnie update. She's a girl, so I'll keep her.
Her name is Unique.. and she's a little cutie!

Should a girl be this excited about mud boots?
I love Love LOVE my Slogger!

The ugliest of moutlers. She has been naked for months, so I'm glad to see her growing new feathers. She is old. Lays a beautiful, big blue egg. Will be happy if she starts laying again. If not, Cray Cray will just be an old hen hangin' around.

"Someone" thought playing hard-to-get would be fun when it was time to come in from the barnyard. So "someone" got locked out and he is BIG mad.. lol

We let him bark it out for a while. Jerk. He is our one dog that will not come when called unless he just wants to. It's so frustrating!

But I love him.. to bits!

Everyday is an adventure around the homestead. But I wouldn't live anywhere else.
