Down at the Farm
Wow, we are getting into this blog thing today. I just created one for my educational pursuits (see Kithaven Connections), and now here's one for our farm. Katie's been after me for some time to do this, so I made it an assignment for my EdTech class. Nothing like a grade to get motivated, right?
So, we'll both be posting on here about what's happening on the farm.
Today Katie tells me we are at 36 lambs, not counting the one that insisted on finding a cold place to sleep (twice), and in this weather, it did him in. :( (We warmed him up the first time, but didn't catch him soon enough the second.)
All the others are doing great, though -- big healthy lambs. We love them! Of the 36, we have 16 ewe lambs of various % Katahdin, 11 wethers to be, and 9 potential rams (87.5 and 100% Katahdin). So, if you are in the market for a new ram lamb, we have lots of choices, in a wide range of color (white, red, chocolate, and spotted). Pictures will come shortly.
The goats are due later this spring, and we'll talk about them in another post.
