(yes, it's the BIG one bottom right - the other two are store bought chicken, see the color diff?)Everywhere bulbs are showing their tips, the ducks are quaking a chasing each other, the hens can't get out of the run fast enough (our cold storage snacks are starting to run low) and
we have our first KIDS!
Gazelle our first time mom gave birth to two beautiful boys and they look just like their dad, including the white spots and floppy ears! Already nursing and gaining weight in a couple days they'll meet the rest of the herd. Gazelle, I am so proud :)
oh, the boys are wearing goat sweaters - or the legs of a pair of sweat pants from my four year old, and now he has a pair of shorts! - because she delivered right before the two coldest nights of this insanely gentle winter. Even with the sweaters, and lots of fresh bedding hay, they were shivering until it warmed up to the mid thirties today. No problems with the long nubian ears though, sometimes the tips can get frost bite but it was not cold enough for that, I am glad to see.
