2011 Jan



So far, I am not doing a very good job chronicling my little farm life. Oh well, I get to start over again tomorrow. While we were gone to Seattle in December, Sundae, our Nigga doe had triplets...all girls. I love them. They are so fun and also a good reminder at what a miracle birth is....Sundae is doing well, she is a skinny thing now while she is nursing 3 little girls. I am going to give the girls a few more weeks on her then we will start to milk again. Ya!
This last week, we have had two litters of bunnies. One litter did not make it but....in the little wooden box, we have eight wiggly naked little bunnies. I can't wait to see what is next for us.
I have been doing a lot of research on beehives and have decided to (at some point) get a Warre Top Bar Beehive and then to try and capture a swarm of local bees! I guess in the meantime, I had better get going on growing enough flowers for the bees to pollinate!
