The fencing has been sold. It was piled up against the chicken coop so we sure don't miss it.
We still have a few does for sale and our doe Java is expecting kids around November 3rd. Waiting for new kids is always an exciting time for us. Java was bred to Crooked Creek Farms Ci beau a son of Oliver. These will be his first. Hopeing for some real special little ones.
Our garden was a total failure this year. Our land is low and has a lot of clay in it. Thankfully our friends and neighbors shared the fresh veggies that they were able to grow with us.
We are still trying to build up our garden plot for next year with the help of manure from the goats and llama which they are so generous with.
If anyone would like to try it bring a small container and we will collect llama poo to make llama tea with. 1 cup of llama poo will make up to 5 gallons which can be used directly on garden or house plants.
Fall brings a lot of changes for the occupants of our barn. The hens go into their pen earlier in the evening, The goats return to the barn early as well. As for Bert the goose its another story. We have had to pluck him out of his pool and carry him into the barn so we can close the barn doors for the night. He does a lot of talking about that procedure but soon settles in with the others.
Have a Happy Fall..
