New baby on the farm tonight!

09/14/2026

Feeding time on the farm was extra fun tonight because I got the sweetest surprise.

As I was letting the donkeys into the hay trap, I realized I was missing one donkey, Loretta Lynn. Before I could even get in the golf cart to go looking for her, she came walking around the corner with a brand new baby by her side.

There’s just nothing quite like looking out across the farm and suddenly realizing your herd has grown by four tiny hooves.

Welcome to the Burns Farm, little one! Now comes the really hard part. What are we going to name you? Update coming soon on if we have a girl or boy.

I am thinking for a girl -Dolly
For a boy-Willie
But I am always open to suggestions.

Farm Life: Here are the things around the farm that inspired me to take a picture during the last few days.

It was almost dark, but Baby Storm had a surge of energy as Snow rolls in the dust.

My, what big ears you have!
All the better to hear how much I LOVE you!

Guaranteed to be the longest ears and softest fur in the South!

Baby Storm is 15 days old.

It’s looking like fall y’all when
Even the weeds look pretty if the sun hits them just right…

While Mama Snow eats, Baby Storm likes to get all the attention. Let me know if you want to pet the baby donkey. I want her to meet some visitors for socialization . Best time is 7pm to 8pm by appointment.

It’s official!

I had to give it a few days to make sure the name fit, but now there’s no doubt that it’s perfect.

Snow has a little Storm! 🤍🫏🤎

Baby Storm rolled into Burns Farm with a gentle breeze, but this tiny girl has already made quite an impact. She may be little, but she’s certainly taken the farm and our hearts by storm.

As the sun sets, this sweet little donkey is officially one day old…One whole day of tiny hooves, long wobbly legs, and stealing our hearts
