Such nice looking animals Joanna. I'm always impressed by how well you and Mike care for them. You deserve an award for being such good parents! Clara's beard has nice color streaks in it. Sweet Pea is definitely growing up!

Great pictures! Sweet Pea is as cute as ever.

Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog and asking about Trouble. She is doing well. I am keeping a close eye on her though because with still 3 weeks to go before she is due, she looks awful big this year. I always worry about the ones that I think may be carrying more than twins.

oh my oh my oh my oh my oh my! I love your spring chicken and goaty pictures, Joanna. You've outdone yourself... and do I see green in the background? Yay! Spring has sprung.

Nice looking animals. It is looking like spring your way. We still have a good amout of snow :(

You have great animals. I love the beard, what type of goat is she?

Joanna, I keep wanting to call Clara a "Calico" goat! She and my Emma would make a good, but strange, pair. Milk Dud looks like he's doing OK without his daddy, and I hope your pain has lessened. I even like your chickens! But SweetPea still holds the title to Cutest Farm Animal.

Hugs to all your critters,
Nancy in Atlanta

Great pictures - I love the Ameraucanas. So cute to see Clara. I think she competes with Sweet Pea for the cuteness title in that pic!
