A river runs thru it...

And with spring, has come the rain ... so much in fact a new 'river' has appeared in the SW goat field. And seeing it as that goats hate running water, they really are none too pleased. (Their shed is prime water-front property at the moment!)

The bottle-babies have now transitioned out of the house and into the field. (Fingers crossed we don't have any really cold spells.) We initially put them with the other momma-baby pairs but they didn't integrate at all. They just kept to themselves. So we put them with the young does and 2 nannies that lost their babies. One of them, nicknamed "Blaze" is allowing other nannie's babies to nurse and tends to "kid-sit" a lot. She may not 'adopt' the bottle-babies, but we're hoping she'll at least look out for them.

The stone is all set on the west side of the home and the chimney has appeared. Slowly but surely, it's coming along!
