Brighter days

Cinnamon Red and her 2 doe kids enjoying a sunny morning after getting their hooves trimmed.The weather has been nice enough to tackle all the foot trimming. It's only been 2-3 months since the goats were shorn and hooves trimmed. I think all the rain makes them grow faster than normal.There are some nice doe kids in black,brown and red that will be ready to shear as soon as the weather warms.I am finding a few eggs everyday and Alex found a nice brown egg from her hens today.The hens stop laying in November and slowly get cranked back up after Christmas.By March there will be eggs everywhere.Most of my hens are Auracana and lay blue eggs, there are a few game hens Louise gave me that are pretty wild, but are great setters and mothers.I cooked some soybeans to feed them to give them more protein to help them lay, in the summer they chase bugs and grasshoppers in the pasture for protein.They are pretty happy hens.
