I just have to share. This has cracked me up for almost an hour now. We had a storm last night so the ground is nice and wet. Grass is wet! My spoiled little goats and sheep decided the light of shade from the lean-to was far enough. They would not budge!

After some coaxing - they all ventured out to their spring pasture. The sheep were fine they took to grazing immediately. The goats took a different route they looked for any place dry - the trailer we have out here that they never get on- then the wood pile and dry ground under the lean-to. If they could have picked up their feet and quickly tip-toed across the wet grass I think they would have 🤣
I suppose they will graze when they want to. ļæ¼The sun is out, it will dry out quickly.

The wonderful thing with sheep and goat husbandry is helping one successfully birth their baby. ā¤ļø We have had unsuccessful births that break your heart, but today was a success. Mama sheep needed help, I reached in, pushed the head back so I could find the front legs, located them, pulled her out and handed her to Faith who rubbed her face and chest to get her breathing on her own. Success!! She is up walking around and snuggling with mama! ā¤ļøā¤ļø

The goats are doing well in this cold. They have been playing and headbutting… all fun and games until the guardian comes around- who is also doing well in this cold- then it’s time to settle down.

You know you have a farm when Thanksgiving dinner is interrupted with strange whining from the paddock… Dakota got himself stuck under the fence. With some digging we got him out. šŸ˜‚ Never a dull moment with goats.
