Morning on the farm

This morning the chores started around 7am.  The first thing was feeding Gyro (the buckling), yes that is his name.  He is still taking 20 oz of milk each morning.  Afterward, Cheyanne and I had a little bit of time to hang out and I put some new bedding down in her stall.  Thinking she is going to want to run in th epasture today.  Someone left the chicken coop open last night so something got one of the chickens. I will make sure it gets closed tonight.  Finally the goats got their warm water in their trough, yep the girls are spoiled. Then I went back and took Cheyanne her two buckets of warm water. 

After the farm chores, I came back in the house changed and then did some work around the house.  I put two new shelves in the kitchen.  Moved the dining room table. Swept up the living room and dining room.  Then put a roast on for dinner.  Now kicking back and relaxing til evening chores.

But before evening chores the boys are getting suprised with bunnies.  I found them from a friend for free.  She is giving us all the stuff needed for them, I just have to pick up feed on my way home.  Hopefully they like them.  Casey has begged for one since July.

Maddy the livestock guardian and goats.  Cherry is the little goat up front.  She is an Alpine/Nigerian doe (meat/milk goat).  Her momma is eating in the back, Becca.  She is a Nigerian doe, who is a meat goat.

Chickens checking out the snow.  Only a few were venturing out this morning.  We had a total of 27 chickens, now we are down to 22.  Something got into the coop last night and got another one.  This is what happens when someone forgets to shut that little door.
