So....It is now the middle of October. Fall is here. My favorite time of year. The leaves are changing, the bucks stink, all the does are bred, the animals are getting hairy, I am building a fire every night......I love my life.
I am extremely excited for my does to kid this spring. I used Rebel pretty heavily this fall since he is moving to a new home with Suzanne Strong. He will still be around, but he won't be my sweet old man any more. Too bad i can't keep him forever, but my space limits things and i need to have room for other wonderful, new bucks, including Sparkling Acres 3 Gun Salute. I have one word....WOW! This is an impressive animal. I am very excited about what he has to offer. Thank you so much, LuAnn, for your trust.
I will be freshening 22 does this spring, so needless to say, there will be animals for sale. lol! I have ideas about whom, but not 100% positive yet......need to see what winter brings in the development of yearlings and 2 year olds. I am not happy with my kid crop from this year, so unless they are magnificent yearling milkers, almost all of them will be going and their daughters will replace them. I went back to some dependable bucks this fall so i can get back the quality I am used to in the new 2011 kid crop.
I'll try to touch on this again sooner next time. :) Until then, have a great and safe winter, and a fun holiday season. Namaste.
