Fayette, MO(Zone 6a)

A cold snowy walk to the barn this morning.
My old pygmy goat was having trouble having her babies when I finally got home last evening. I helped the first baby along. She is such a good mom and so happy with her twins this morning.
All the other livestock must be hiding out of the wind. Even the sheep, who have enjoyed the drop in temps weren't in their usual snoozing places by the barn. The only things not bothered at all were the ponies and mare. They were nosing around as usual.
So glad this is Friday. I worked late last evening so got to the barn late for feeding. The baby goats that I give bottles nurse their moms a little throughout the day while I'm gone, but they are still greatful to see me.
have a great day
