GOATS:
Molly and Maggie - the mama goat and her daughter
Grandma loves the goats.
The family uses only goat milk now.
(Except Uncle Devon, who still buys his cow milk. We tried the goat milk but made a trip to town to buy cow milk for our stay. Perhaps goat milk is an acquired taste...)
Mama goat had three bucklings: Bruno, Jackson, Rex.
They also purchased a breeding male: Apollo
The bucklings LOVE Grandma!
Actually, they seemed to love anyone who would come near their cage.
(I think they were hoping we had brought food!)
CHICKENS:
They have a rooster and a bunch of chickens, too.
They lay enough eggs for the whole family to eat LOTS of egg dishes!
One baby hatched right before we got there.
David shared this photo of the baby 10 days later.
No other eggs seem to want to hatch.
PIGS:
It rained while we were there and the poor pregnant pig had nowhere dry to lay.
Grandpa and Uncle David repaired her roof so her babies could be born in a dry spot.
Grandma saves fruit rinds and other food scraps to share with Lulu.
Lulu knows she is going to get treats!
Grandma showed Megan how to feed the pig without losing fingers.
This week Lulu gave birth to ELEVEN baby piglets!
I am SO glad I only had one at a time!!!
Isn't he cute?
Uncle Devon said the piglets are extremely cute and walk around making pig noises. I wish we could have seen them!
DOGS:
Tank loves Uncle David!
Tank and Shadow run all over the property but are especially fond of the shady spots under the trees.
Sometimes they even share the shady spots with Grandma.
There are three other little dogs: Leo, Tucker and Missy. However, they wouldn't stand or sit still long enough to get a picture.
