Kid Photos: 11 days old, and very frisky!

By
Savana (my photographer sister) is staying for a couple days with my grandmother, and left her camera behind.  I was quite happy to see it.  :)

I took these photos the next morning.
Enjoy!



Agnes was so frisky!  Look at her dancing!

Emaline feeding Charlemagne.

Aggie again.

Emaline loves the kids- and they love her.



How do you get farm chores done quickly, and with the least bit of trouble to oneself?  Delegate.
:)

This also gets the kids used to children.


Justice feeding Aggie.

Emaline and Charlemagne.
Peacefully eating breakfast...

"Hmmm... what kind of creature is this?"

"Any more breakfast down there?"

"Nope, guess not.  Let's go!"







Saanens can perform the haute ecole too.  See the capriole?





Justice and Charlemagne.


Charlemagne again.
 After feeding, the kids began racing round and round the pen at top speed.  They were hilarious!  Maybe they're training for the hundred yard dash or something...


Juliet had a wipe out.






Sweet Inez.  I just missed it, but she licked Aggie on the nose here.






And here are a few miscellaneous photos of some of the other animals.


I promise the pen is not usually that muddy.  We just had several days of rain.











"Is that for me?"







I really like these pictures of Freda.  They show her to advantage.



I'm so thankful the Lord put us on a farm!

    And I gotta admit...you're making me wish I had more animals! :p

Marvelous Seeds- Natural Dewormer for Dogs and Others

By
Naturally de-worming animals can be challenging, and some people will say that you are just better off going with the chemicals.  There are several problems with chemical wormers however.  You see, a chemical wormer is actually a poison, which is fed to the animal in large enough doses to kill, or expel the worms, but in small enough amounts that it hopefully will not injure the animal.  Trouble is, worms have an ability to build up resistance to the chemical poisons used in these wormers.  For example:  A few years ago, when I first started with dairy goats, I had major trouble with worms.  In fact, I lost quite a few goats to them.  I tried using the chemical wormers- SafeGuard (at 4 times the dosage for horses, for 3 days straight), and Ivermectin.  The goats' hair remained curly (a sign of a heavy worm load), and their gums and eyelids were pale.  Finally, most of them died- including three beautiful purebred, registrable Nubians.  I was heartbroken.      Several years later,

Natural cure (and prevention) for foot rot in goats and other animals

By
Several years ago, I began learning about the benefits of copper as a supplement.  I learned that it is actually a necessary mineral for goats, cows and sheep, and is best absorbed in sulphate form.      What prompted the research was a case of foot rot in one of my goats.  I was unaware that it was foot rot until someone diagnosed it for me over the phone.  I had noticed that his foot had been swollen for a couple days, but didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that a bug might have bitten or stung him.  After about three days from the time that I initially noticed the swelling he was limping badly.  I mentioned this to a man who was interested in buying him, and he said that it might be foot rot.  He said to check and see if it smelled bad, and that if so, it was probably foot rot.      I checked, and sure enough there was a strong putrid smell to it.  So I started researching  a natural, and speedy, cure for foot rot online.  There was very little information to be found
