Its been a long time since I posted here. So much to do. Here is a catch up.

Thar she grows!

Getting the garden going.

Just a little glimpse from our busy summer.

25 20+ ft rows of potatoes just starting pop there little greens out of the gound. Hoping for a bumper crop this year. *fingers crossed*

Beautiful sunny days

Ducklings being insufferably cute.

NEW RIDICULOUS CHICKINS! Polish hudan x with some frizzle in the middle. They are super fantastic.

Theres more peeping coming from the incubator tnis morning and 3 fresh new baby goats yesterday. Feels like spring !

The little back girl I have dubbed "Beauty" (on account of her resemblance to the fictional black horse of the same name) trying to stand. Such will in these tiny creatures. I dont even want to stand right now.. :P

It was a long night and a tense morning, but we are blessed with 8 new arrivals. :)

Sow in labor likes to bury herself. Getting pretty close now.

This mornings newest edition.

New farrowing pens for our piggies!

20 healthy chicks out of the incubator. So much cute fluffyness.

Piglets nursing to classical

Some of the does enjoying their new upcyled hay feeder, in the warm and dry of the barn.

7 new berkshire piggies! 5 girls and 2 boys. Super happy and cozy with their awesome mom Orca.

Busy long weekend on the farm. Building new goat stalls in the barn and watching turkeys parade around.

Surprise turkey poults this morning! I never know when my hens go missing if theyve been eaten or their sitting on a cluch somewhere.

Did you know that in nature pigs co-mother? We have 2 litters born over 3 days, and both mothers now share a nest (and an aunty) and take turns nursing all the babies. At night they sleep belly to belly with the babies tucked in between.

We have piglets! Finally our new boar has grown enough to do his job, and we have 4 new nature born piggies.

Fences, frogs, gardens and my little helper :)

We have kids for sale! 3 PB Nubian bucklings and many Angora Nubian crosses. Most are ready now. $125 males and $225 for females.

We have hams!! New batch of pork in the freezer brings with it glorious Easter hams. We have all new cuts available of our fantastic Berkshire pork. The flavour and marbling is second to none. Free delivery in Duncan and Victoria on all orders over $30.

Four new kids today!!

Barns getting crowded with all the new arrivals. Time for kids to move out side.

Today's babies!

The chicken wagon! Our portable brooding coop.

A few new babies this week.

Little man doing great with him mom.

So this happed not 30 min ago.Saw her running around yelling with two little feet poking out her back end. I didnt even think she was pregnant. She just had a kid this summer. Im new to this, there is lots to learn, and never assume your buck isnt on his game. Or that a doe that doesnt look pregnant, isnt. We got her in to the closest clean structure, our unused but cleanly hayed "duck house", and delivered this healthy little boy. Ron Burgundy and mom Rosemary are now in the barn with grandma Sophia and the rest of the ladies waiting.

First kids of the season! An adorable, but unintended cross of nubian and (mostly) angora. We welcome Zeldas kids Blue(m) and Monday (f).

A day of soap making. Description to come :)
