Last chance for hatching eggs!

We have a broody hen and I’m going to let her sit on the eggs and see what hatches! 🤩

And….im getting tempted to try out the incubator that’s sitting in a box….😂

Rusty Iron Magnum getting his hooves done 💁🏼‍♂️ courtesy of Dutchman Hooftrimming.

This is the second year we had Rene out. This year he came with his wife and they were an awesome team!

Magnum is our biggest and oldest ram and his horns are starting to curl outwards now; with some gentle guidance, he just fit in the head gate 👌🏼

See you two again next year!

Sometimes things fit and sometimes they don’t 😕

All signs pointed to Indifolk Ranch not being the right home for ducks, since bringing this bunch home.

The final sign was the sudden habitation of ravens on our ranch and the attack of a hen resulting in the emergency dispatch of the poor girl.

Much to my disappointment, I had to accept that my joy of watching ducks had to end. And, a home more suitable, and safer, for them was needed.

I quickly found them a new home with an amazing lady who dotes on her animals. She has a massive dugout and other ducks and a few geese and hasn’t had an issue with predators. They’ll be much loved and that makes me feel better about this whole sh*tty situation.

Step 2 of the waterfowl journey commences….😂

Thank you Tracy at New Beginnings Poultry & Ducks for the Saxony and Cayuga ducks!

3 drakes and 2 hens make this group a little heavy on the testosterone but I’ll find some more hens and hopefully they’d figure things continue to all get along! 😃

Our last ewe to lamb as part of our regular lambing season!

Baabaa; the flock matriarch and now retired from lambing 🩷

This ol girl is part of my original three ewes! 1/2 katahdin and 1/2 ABB, she is by far the biggest ewe here and always has the biggest lambs.

The last few years she’s developed a very large, problematic teat and her lambs have needed help. This year it took 3 days of catching, holding and milking that teat so it wouldn’t get mastitis and was the best bet at having any chance of getting the lambs on it.

Her good teat didn’t have enough to sustain one lamb, never mind two so regular colostrum, followed by milk replacer feedings were needed.

After a worrisome and extremely hot day 2, I was able to get the lambs rehydrated with half feedings every 2 hours and by end of day they were looking much better 🙌🏼

Day 3 I milked that teat again and was able to get one lamb on! Day 4 both lambs got on and it was smooth sailing after that! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Thank goodness!

I have a good husband - if it involves using the tractor, he will do it 😉😄

Seriously though, he does a lot to help me with all my animal projects.

Can’t wait to show you all the pics from the latest project! It’s almost done 😃

In the meantime, the husband is slowly tackling pen cleanup 😃👌🏼

It’s been a busy last 10 days!

Some photo evidence that’s missing 3 ewes who lambed and a coop purchase, haul and setup!

1. Our ewe Midnight lambed! 3 rams! However, two sacks were coming out for lambs 2&3 and the 3rd was a stillborn 🥺

2. I delivered all our cuts of lamb! All we have left is ground and some gluten free breakfast sausage we need to try for ourselves and price

3. These baby geese are a busy job! Too young to venture on their own so require monitored outings, and lots of fresh water!

4. Captured Midnights ram #3 coming

5. Our purebred ABB Babe and her single lamb

6. Another single lamb for one of our purebred and registered ABBs

7. Our grouchy mixed ABB Leilah and her two lambs. I’ve been catching lambs and mommas when they can’t get away to pen them but all 3 of our pens were full!

8. Fresh pool water for the geese! Next up will be giving their run a rake and clean out

9. Another one of our purebred and registered ABBs and her twins

10. Taxes! Trying to meet our June 15 filing deadline!
