Down On the Farm Pics

Good Morning, as I mentioned in one of my blogs I wanted to share with you pictures of my 2nd favorite hobby, My Farm. The first picture is of my newest handmade piggy, Spring Day piggy. You can visit Piggy at my etsy store: klayfriends.etsy.com under Clay items in my store :)

I have two goats Zoe & Rosebud..both purchased at local Jersey farms. Zoe is an older goat that I purchased as she was no longer good for breeding and Rosebud was purchased by me because the owners "show" their goats and her formation was not "perfect". I have two white Pekin ducks. The smallest one was found on a main highway and the bigger I adoped from a local farm. They love their pool :) I also have pics of my chickens that lay eggs everyday. The farm would not be complete without a picture of my miniature horses. I have two of them but could only get one of Jumpin' Jim with his whole head in his feed bucket..silly guy.

My farm is small, only a few acres, but it brings lot of enjoyment to me, my family and friends. Unfortunately, my husband may want to sell in the next few years once my son has finished high school and downsize and at that point I would have to consider suitable homes for my friends, but for now I enjoy each day with them!


I hope you enjoy the pictures and I will put more on as the seasons change.

Spring has Sprung

I am thinking its time to go out and get supplies to get my garden going..I am also debating whether or not to get more baby chicks this year. The problem is they sell them straight run which means they could be male or female..I don't want roosters so I always pray for females.. Keep a watch in the near future for pictures of my farm. Its been so rainy or windy here lately that I haven't been able to get good pics of my clan, but I will soon promise :) I have mini horses, rabbits, goats, chickens and of course my puppy sofie whose pictures are listed below a few blogs.

The picture above left is my newest piggy, Garden Piggy Nicloe~ she is so sweet with her pretty butterfly wings. You can see more of her by using this link http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23234397.
