First 2010 Foal

Ally and Dane had thier first baby together this morning. It is a light colored foal, I do not know the sex yet as I was away but will get pictures of it this afternoon and let you all know the sex and color. Yeah, I have been waiting for this pairing for 2 years now...

The Ice Box

The Big Hole is a beautiful place to be but very very cold. Here are a couple pictures as promised. More to come soon.... after I thaw out....

What would I do without......

I have to admit that sometimes I wonder what I would do without certain things in my life, would it make it easier or would I miss the presence of those things around me......

What would I do without a flock of chickens, horses, and dogs to follow me from the house to the barn to the grain shed, to the barn and back to the house, most of the time with the rooster trying to attack me.

What would I do if I did not live in the country, would things be much easier or would I miss the beauty and the quietness....

What would I do if I didn't have a goat that followed me and trapped company in their vehicles and shreds any trees or flowers...
What would I do without being able to have skunks on my sidewalk and deer eating the hay in the horse pastures....

I don't know what I would do, they keep life interesting.....

The Move

Well its been a while and the holidays are finally over. Foaling season is moving up on us very fast. Baby calves are being born all around me. We are moving to a temporary new location in the Big Hole valley and will be taking all the small critters with us but sadly the little horses will have to stay in Twin Bridges as the winter is just too hard on them up there. They would be barried in the snow...... We will be rotating the pregnant mommas out as they get close to foaling and will have most the mares up their until the foals are doing well and we will bring them back down to Twin.

We will be reducing the numbers of all the critters until we move back or get a better set up in the Big Hole. So if you are looking for anything please visit my website and see all the critters that we will be offering.

I will post pictures soon of the beautiful Big Hole valley...
