Pigtails wanting some food. Our sheep flock is in the pasture behind her, and Dolly is feeding Milkshake behind the gate.

Star feeding her calf Pearl, and the 2 boys at the back. They bunt her so hard they lift her back legs off the ground !

Little Red. Her horns have already grown about 3 inches in the 5 months we have had her.

Beehives in the snow - Winter 2011. We didn't lose any bees this year, whooppeee !

The day-old Freedom Ranger chicks. Herbie moved the truck bed liner to the garage, and it made a perfect enclosure for the chickens

Roquefort, mozzerella and feta cheese, all made here on the farm

We fenced in the front lawn to make a new sheep pasture. Was supposed to be a one week-end job, took a month !

Boy alpacas in the snow Aztec,Cinnamon, Snowy and Cavelier, with Apollo eating from the hay bale. We only kept Cavvi, gave the other 4 boys to Michael and Amanda, together with Tina, one girl.
Picture
Building Little Africa. I planted the posts that I cut from our woods, then Herbie put the supporting cross beams in.
Picture
2 boys from the dairy, very skinny and not feeling too well. Doofus and Boytjie are now very healthy, 8 month old calves.
Picture
The 2012 Fall view from my kitchen window. The maples are light and beautiful, the parsley, mint and basil bright green on the window sill.
Picture
The 4 guineas, 3 girls and a boy. They remind me of South Africa, and they are very good eating. Now if only they'll hatch some babies, we'll be in business !

Family, friends having fun
