this week in pictures


A new Friday ritual perhaps?

It has been a hard week, but it's nice to see the fruits of our labor (if you will). I finally have more pictures to share, and have decided that I will try to start uploading a photo blog every friday with bits and pieces of the week (that way you don't get my nice posts with ten million pictures all at once.) Enjoy! 

a painting I just finished

do I really need to explain?

This is Bruno (or Falcor to Jonathan), one of our guard dogs.

 I'm loving the flowers blooming all over the place.

 Things are growing!

 The brooder we made for the chickens.

This little guy is Nicholas. He is the smallest of three triplet lambs, and is super friendly since he's been bottle fed.
 This tiny baby was born on Wednesday.

 The baby bunnies are getting so big.


 This handsome fellow is a Chinchila rabbit, and he is awesome.

 This is Pi, another baby this week.

 Meet Werewolf.

He's such a sweetie.

He has gotten a bit fatter since this picture.

 dozens and dozens of eggs

Jonathan getting to know Pi (his name was almost warshack.)

 how did I get myself into this mess?

 One of the little babies born on Wednesday.

 There were twin yews (girls) born this morning, and mom seemed to only think she had one baby.

 One of another twins born yesterday (I think it was yesterday.)

 Some chickens taking a dust bath in their new home today.

They love fresh grass (a little too much since they decided to lay their eggs all over the place!)

Farewell, pretty waitress hands.

Until next time,

a few lessons in rabbit husbandry

We now have two years of experience under our belts raising rabbits. We have learned a lot of useful information already, but we are far from experts. That's the thing with farming, with raising animals, you will never be done learning. Bring it on. As of today we have 17 rabbits in our little group, and the more animals you have the more likely you are to have problems. Here are a few of ours: the girls The first problem we had is with the smallest litter we have, which we have had in a large dog crate on the grass. They are starting to get pretty big, and coming of age, they are starting to get a little frisky. This is bad news bears. I was out watching them and saw three boys ganging up on one girl, so in a hurry I fixed up a cage and moved her into it. She was visibly shaken, breathing quickly, her hair a mess with tufts pulled out (that was the first sign I saw that something was going on.) The next d...

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends.  Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly
