Summer Farm Update and other stuff...

Howdy from Texas!

I took an internet sabbatical during plowing/planting, calving, kidding, clearing and fencing, and hatching season...but now have a minute to catch my breath and catch up with ya'll!

I hand raised 10 new doe goatlings, 3 bottle calf heifers, freshened a new milk cow, grew up 22 geese hatchlings and an uncountable number of baby chicks, and trained a new Livestock Guardian puppy while on hiatus so it was a very productive time.

Oh and processed 21,000 pounds of corn, butchered a hog and put up 24 tons of hay.

I had a rough go of it for a while with bronchitis, then pneumonia and lastly a leg injury that I have not healed yet from falling through some rotten deck boards and getting what amounts to a crush injury of my left calf. Since I already have a plate and screws in my right ankle I'm pretty gimpy right now and kind of laid up... So I thought this would be a great time to visit for some tea and sympathy

And I know that a picture is worth a thousand words so here are pics!

New chicks!


New calves:

Re: Summer Farm Update and other stuff...

Thanks for the well wishes! I think that grief and respiratory issues go hand in hand sometimes... I lost mom in March and got sick in April... and it just lingered forever. Several trips to the doc and tons of meds did little but over time I am better and left with only the broken rib from coughing as a painful memory... and the leg, which was just a moment of stupid I'll be paying for the next couple of months.

I've missed you all

Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

I made my own maple syrup this year! At first, I thought your honey was maple syrup!
