  5. Being that I raise Rhode Island Reds, can't imagine why you would like 'em. Yes, and I had a red llama, too.

    Cat. (Who USED to be a redhead. Sorta silvery red, now...)

  6. I have a soft spot for "moorit" (reddish-brown) Shetland sheep as well.

    And I've always thought that I should have been a redhead. I've got the complexion. Well, except that I do tan. But I look great with red hair.

    Enjoy your redheads!

  7. $3.50 a bale, and they just tear into it like it's...grass. ;)

    So are the toms getting along now? It still looks cold there; hope everybody's ready for the next round of Winter Crap headed our way!

  8. I found you a miniature pig that is red-they are called Julianas and they stay really tiny. They come in red with black spots and white with black spots and they are only about $3,000 each! I think you need TWO!!!

  9. I love redheads too. Animals and people. I know what you mean about the price of hay. We are spending $160 every two weeks on round bales and it would be even more expensive if we went to square bales. I will be glad when spring comes and grass sprouts. We have to have another plan next winter.

  10. Bkue Ridge Boomer - no, got this in Watauga Co

    I guess Bennie is doing a little better, but Franklin and Jefferson were chasing him around today.

    YellowWolf - I'll lok up Juliana pigs. Just $3,000?
