Spring [Barn] Cleaning

Today was spring cleaning today for the barn. We got a late start and didn’t get quite as much completed as we had hoped, but we got a solid start!

(I kind of love the photo above; Mama Candy with both her daughters from her first and second kiddings. ❤ So sweet!)

We set up two fresh, clean kidding pens for Reese and Candy, which was the most important thing we needed to get done. Mama Candy should be kidding Easter weekend and Reese should be kidding for the very first time a week or two after that.

We also moved our bucks out to their own bachelor pad. Sunny, above, is our older buck and the sire of all our kids this year. We’re so excited to see his babies in the coming weeks!

Amanda lives with her family on a little red farmstead in northwestern Pennsylvania. By day she's a web developer specializing in WordPress and in her off time she enjoys working with goats and other livestock on the farm, canning, knitting, and crocheting.
