Let there be light!

A task completed that I've always wished for.  Silly as it sounds, lights in the barn.  I've only had 1 light that was outside the barn.  So, Ben installed lights in every inside section of the barn and now I can SEE!  --- more junk we need to get rid of!   I've spent way to many hours in the darkness, hauling a flashlight or headlamp around the barn - so I now have light to really be able to make the barn a better place for all the goats and chickens! 

We have started getting rid of this year's Kids.  Our first girl was given to a very nice family in Fair Oaks.  This family provided us the buck to mate with our girls, plus the father of the family generously did the chore of dis-budding the horns off the girls we were going to keep.   They took one of Serenity's girl triplets.  Sad, but happy! 

The Middle Fawn Girl - before she was taken to her new home.  Her sisters are keepers on the Rucka Farm!


We put the trailer in place to take the rest of the boy kids (7 of them) auction on Monday.  I get so emotional over this and wish I could keep them all-  but know that is just not the right thing to do on the farm.
