We have sold out of the hogs (Yay!) and sadly, but happily the goats. The high cost of this horrible drought has proven to be more than our little farm can bear. My heart aches for my goats but they are just a short drive from our farm, they are together and they are loved dearly by a wonderful woman.
Darlin', Patches, Charlie, and Bunny and Prissy now live at Lana Helmers's beautiful farm. (The above photo is of our poor farm in August of 2011.) The day before Thanksgiving we delivered the goats to Lana. Richard and Chase built her a pen and revamped a tractor barn for them to live in. It is warm and dry and they think they are in heaven. She is head over heals in love with them all and is full to bursting with excitement over their impending babies' arrivals. Patches will kid first most likely and Prissy shortly after. Darlin' and Bunny have a bit of time yet. I am so excited for Lana, and all the goats as they have all the love and attention they could possibly want.
Next we will push Lana into getting some poultry! LOL she will love them too. Lana just thought she was retiring ;) --she is busier now than ever!! We love you Lana, thanks for taking our babies!
