I do not want to talk about sadness for awhile.I will just throw out some more randomness from around the farm. Whirly Comb Jr. had her little chickies out yesterday. Two are Buff Orpingtons,one is a Maran mix and the other is an Easter Egger mix.
Only 4 hatched....I am thinking we may have to replace Elvis with a younger rooster is he can't do a better job!
The little bunnies have gotten bigger...
This one with the white ears is the doe I just bought .She is going to be for breeding, not the stew pot!
Sweet pea thinks it is Crazy Hat Day on the farm! She does this all the time,she likes to eat her hay fluffy and she has the perfect horns to fluff it up.That, or she is just taking a snack with her for later!
Just some random duckness !!
Can you guess what this is? It is asparagus I started from seed! Yes,I know it will take a long time before it is big enough to make! Some friends gave me some mature plants.There is just something...I don't know... satisfying about growing things from seed!
I know this is just airplane trails but....
And last of all....do you see what I see ? Yep,that old oak is budding out! That tree knows something I think! Spring is near!
Have a great day everyone!

I pray that your other Goat doe's give you healthy kids to ease the pain of your loss a bit. These are the experiences that shape our lives, touch us and mold us, help us grow but so painful none the less.
Your little farm is so full of new life, and it does look like spring is coming soon.
Love the pictures. I LOL at Sweetpea with her hat. Very cute pic of Sweetpea kissing your son
Mama hen with chicks - cute
Bunnies - cute
Several trees are budding out here also. The Sandhill Cranes are migrating back. They migrate over my house every year.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
Great pictures! Oak budding out? Wow! Wish mine would! They are the LAST thing to bud out around here...

Sweet Pea looks really good..
Thanks everyone! And to Gerald the goat,I am sorry I tried and tried to get your comment to publish,it just would not do it!
I just "followed" you and was sent by Patty and Pricilla and the gang. I'm sorry to see the loss of you sweet goat friend, but I see the joy in new life there as well. There is some comfort in new lives beginning and it gives us hope, doesn't it. It doesn't make the pain go away, but it helps a bit. :)
I just caught up on your recent entries: I am SO sorry about your wee goat. How heartbreaking for you - he was such a little darling.
Take care.
LOVE that picture of Sweet Pea in her hat, LOL!!! You have a lot of great farm pics on here. Thanks for sharing them.
