Snow Snow Go Go Go Away

This time last year I was posting about how much the snow was going away and that bare patches were showing up and spring was coming. Well it snowed last night and I'm miserable! The Emus *are* laying again, though not a the rate they were laying last year. We've had about 20 eggs total this year so far with more to come. Of the 5 chickens that showed up last year, we have one left, the rest disappeared via food or fowl play. We picked up 4 new chickens and our 5 chickens have the run of the farm and seem to stick around for food. The goats are all pregnant I'm sure and will be due in May. We *still* cannot ride Peak or Info. Peak I rode a little last year but only with Steve's hand firmly on the halter.

Dramatails had a second litter in 2010 which came to Dramtails Eclipse. 3 beautiful curly babies. They are now 4 months old and two of them show huge show potential. One is going to Taiwan in August or September and the other is staying here. Dramatails Avatar is available for sale. He is by far the sweetest of the bunch but is smaller than the rest and lighter boned. He'll make someone a fantastic pet.

IW Bangles Terraincognito has been here for 9 months and has managed to breed ONE girl. He just was not in shape to breed earlier and plus no cats were in heat. He has bred Kitsarkat Pixie and hopefully Dramatails Legally Blonde. I have also put Spellbinding Rosetta Stone and Dramatails Charmed in with him just in case they go into heat. Although Tugger is not very aggressive about his breeding.

So cross your fingers for 4 litters this year, thats about all I can handle.
