Busy week on the Ranch

     This past week has been really busy.  Brent had a full week cleaning windows.  The weather has been so nice his calendar is getting full.  While he was working I had bunny duty morning and night.  Playing with all the rabbits are so much fun.  The new babies are old enough that them and their mommies have moved back to the rabbit barn.  Last night and this morning we on purpose breed 2 does , while on the floor 1 of the grow outs was being breed.  So hopefully in a month we will have 3 sets of new babies.
      The 3 hens finally have new friends to talk to .  Mom and dad came up on Wed. and they brought us 4 hens and a rooster along with a Guinea.  They seem to all be getting along today.  That puts us up to 7 hens.  Yesterday and today we got 4 eggs.  Next time we go to mom and dads we are going to bring back more hens.
     Today we went to pick up some baby ducks to raise for eggs and maybe meat.  We also bought 3 Turkeys. We are still on the look out for more Guineas.


     We also bought a Nanny goat named Fancy today that may be preg.  Will find out in about 2 months.  Also bought her 3 month old baby.  When Brent was in high school all the guys in FFA were called Goat Ropers. Now he really is. When we were inside the barn finishing up with the new ducks we heard something and went into the chicken coop.  Inside were the chickens and the Nanny goat and the baby.  Cant believe she went thru the small chicken door.  They are in another corral now.

     We have the garden area broke up and have the onions and garlic planted.


  He has also plowed up some of the pasture and we have started planted stuff for the rabbits to eat.  I have also been planting some spring flowers and we have planted some fruit trees.


Kanga and Robin have settled right in.  Robin wants to be outside with Brent all the time. Kanga likes to set in the windows and look outside at all the birds.
