A hard 48 hours

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 04:27:02 +0000

Well, the time had finally come. I wasn’t really ready for what was about to transpire. Yoohoo was looking a little different to me. I was concerned and called the breeder, Karen. She didn’t know exactly what to make of it but she did have several ideas. Later I went [...]

Be nice to winter

admin — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 22:53:29 +0000

I had a conversation with Mr. Winter, and for the record he doesn’t like to be called and “Old Man”. In our conversation I figured out that he doesn’t want to leave because everyone is complaining about him so much. We love the snow. We love the roaring fires in [...]

Nature Walk

This weekend was so beautiful! 63 degrees and sunny, it was a taste of spring that we thought would never come. Hard to believe that the low tomorrow is supposed to be 19 degrees. Yikes. I was happy the warm weather was on the weekend so that Quinn could enjoy it [...]

Samuel had his 4-H Demonstration today. He did a fantastic job! He got first place for his grade level and topic. The demonstration was “How to Make a Survival Kit”. He did very well with the speech part. He does very well with public speaking. Samuel said that he was nervous [...]

Delightful Goats

The girls are settling in nicely. It is so nice to see them in the morning. They call out to me when they see me coming. It has been so cold this winter but the good thing is that it also has been very pretty. This is the view from the [...]

One, Is the loneliest number

admin — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 22:06:34 +0000

With the great incubation experiment over I can honestly say that I have learned a lot! After consulting with books, friends, and the guy at the feed store, I now know way more than I thought there was to know about hatching eggs. God knows it is best to have a [...]

The chicks

admin — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 20:58:07 +0000

Well, the chicks were supposed to hatch on friday. I had a very hard time achieving enough humidity. I was able to boost it a little and for a short time with small jars of boiling water to produce steam. I dreaded emptying the incubator so I put it off until after [...]

New Arrival

admin — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 22:07:37 +0000

We have two new additions to Heaven Scent Farm. We picked up our new goats on Saturday! The one that has white on her is named Stitch. She is the more social of the two. She is still pretty scared but will take food from my hand now. The other one that is all [...]

Fencing is almost complete

admin — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 18:19:58 +0000

The fencing is going up! The chickens are a little confused how some are on one side of the fence and some are on the other. The fence is up all the way down the hill and in the woods. After I took the picture I noticed the beautiful valley all covered with snow [...]

Snow Man!

admin — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 02:06:38 +0000

Well, the snow yesterday was too dry but as it began to melt a little today we were able to make it stick better to make a snowman. This was the boys’ first snowman and the first snowman on the farm. You know, it is not every snowman who can pull off ears and a sombrero. Y’all [...]
