So it has been raining for a few days now. Actually it has been pleasant. The gentle rain is kind of soothing. The plants and trees are soaking it up. Blankets of grass are deepening in rich shades of green. We had a new calf born a few days ago. Its front hooves are bent down,(knuckling) so it cannot stand properly. We are fashioning some stents to help strengthen his legs, until he can stand straight without assistance. We have done it before with some other calves, and it worked beautifully. The calves mamma, has not been too cooperative. She has been a little SASSY! Worried about her baby, and being in the pen. I am sure she will calm down soon.
The kids have been enjoying the warmer weather, and love to be outside. They have been creating houses out of logs and bikes, and anything laying around. They are also excited about our new kitties. Four little tiny things. They are too small to hold and play with now, but we take little peeks at them during the day.
