Kittens, Free Chicks, And Just Pictures in General

Puppy had kittens! Now, after looking back and forth between that word and the pictures you may have figured it out but I'll go ahead and explain it to the others. Puppy is the name of our cat. More specifically, my sister Laura's cat. She had 5. Anyway, I know y'all prolly want pictures so I'll shut up now.

Here's my favorite one. Black with orange and white splotches.

Bud, the temporary bottle calf.

So, I went to our local feed store for dog food and they had a bunch of chicks for sale. Actually, they had had them there for a long time and nobody was buying them! They were starting to feather out. I know the folks there and they offered to let me have some for free. Can't beat that! I picked out a variety of 3 Bantam Barred Rocks, 3 Cinnamon Queens, and 2 White Leghorns.

More calf pictures!

Ferdinand and Isabella 
Yeah, you history freaks, that's what we named them...actually we named the boy Ferdinand after Ferdinand the bull and then we named the heifer Isabella and then we realized what happened...

Isabella


Okay, I'll seeyaround! (<<That's a word BTW<<)

Cow and Rabbit Pictures! ((New Calf!))

We got two new calves! I went down and took pictures of the first and I've yet to get some of the second. The first is a bull calf and the second is a heifer. Anyway, most of the pictures aren't of them but there are some farther on down...enjoy!

Daisy, the someday milk cow maybe.

New calf #1

This is him with his mom, speckles, a shorthorn, behind him. (wow, did I get those commas right?)


Little Ms.

Red Meat the old stunted bottle calf.

New calf #1 (no name yet) and the mom


A bunch of the cows (with Red Meat wanting rubbed)

A couple of Joshua's young does

My silver buck which I can't use cuz he's related to all the does

My two young does (sorry for the HORRIBLE pic)

Whoopie pie and her kits

Fudge, our main man

Christmas...which we haven't butchered yet for some reason...

Some of what's left of this years hay.

The barn from the outside

Pine trees along the drive way.

I'll try to get some pictures of the other calf soon for y'all.

Until then...

Picture Post!!

Ok, several recent pictures. Coming up!!


Hay wagon silhouette


Joshua looking at his new baby rabbits


Lot's of hay

Joshua's calf in the back and Blitz, laura's calf, in the front



The small yellow chick in the next few pics is from one of my light brahma hens and my ISA rooster(sold now). He/she is dead now but it was fun watching it grow into different colors. Black, white, yellow, red, I like mutli-color animals.

White, yellow, and a little black on the chest.

All three again on the back and sides.


One of the three black bantam cochin/yellow silkie chicks


Love the feet!


Turkeys!!!

Two white silkie hens and the white silkie roo. The rooster died for some reason recently. :/




Another great hay wagon pic.

The new chicks

The brooder
Ok, that's all for the pics. I'll try to get some more sometime.
