What happened to Boris?

We found a new home for my goofy camel, Boris.  I promise to write about him in the next few days but until I do, please read my husband’s blog about it.  It’s going to be hard to top off his rendition of Boris’ new residence! By the way, that’s not Boris in the picture…

A lazy day at the farm

What a gorgeous day we had today in Tennessee!   The sun was shining and a warm breeze was blowing!  What better to do than hang around the farm and enjoy the animals and the beautiful weather! Today was a big day for my little kids: Chilly, Willy, Nutmeg, Patches, Waddles & Cocoa.  It was the…

Stormy, guardian of the goats

January 11th, I traded Princess the miniature mare for a Llama.  Yes, a Llama of all things!  I wasn’t sure this was a good move because of a prior experience with a mama Llama. Carol from Wolf Creek Farms contacted me and suggested the trade.  Her husband had always wanted a horse and she had…

Critter Update

Looks like I haven’t kept up to date lately… well, here’s what’s going on these days… Boris He’s a really good camel but he’s bored because he doesn’t have a job or things to do besides chase smaller animals an be a bully.  As always he’s loving and gentle (mostly), but I realized that I…

Ziggy’s progress

Ziggy was not a happy camper when he got here.   Not that he was not wild or anything like that but he just wasn’t comfortable with people. With love and patience, I got him to let me pet him while he eats.  Eventually he let me touch him everywhere but every so often he’d get…

One more bunny, or more?

Yesterday I went to pick up a buddy for my little Lion Head doe, “Fuzzy”.  The breeder didn’t have any young Lion Head does so I settled for a young  beautiful Lop Ear brownish gray doe. Upon introducing “Floppy” to my little Fuzzy, it was obvious that Fuzzy had other things on her/his mind.  Yep,…

Pica & Skye – Keepers of the Goats

I just noticed that I hadn’t written about our Great Pyrenees dogs.  Meet Pica & Skye (named by my daughter & her husband). I couldn’t tell you which is which as they are totally identical.  One is a little larger than the other and one is bolder.  Both are very sweet and loving and love…

Lionhead Bunny

I guess I forgot to tell you about my little black Lionhead doe.  I got her a couple of weeks ago and figured she’d make a nice addition to the farm.  She’s jet black and so, so soft! I do need to get her claws cut because she could definitely slice you with those  sharp…

Kid’s life!

Here I am with updates on the “kids”! Gracie (the first born), is doing fine, as a matter of fact she is so tame & friendly!  I think that having her be part of the group that I used at the petting farm at the Dayton Christmas parade helped her to be that way.   I…

Meet Nutmeg!

Brownie surprised us Thanksgiving afternoon with a beautiful little doe that my friend and neighbor Rose named Nutmeg. This little one is very quiet and mom (who’s a very experienced doe), keeps an eye on her all the time. These furry little animals are so cute and cuddly!
