Serenity Paws Bubblegum has got exactly 6 days until the nest box goes in for her, we are very excited for her first litter! I plan on keeping a doe kit from her as a brood doe, which will be very cool.
We are also getting another (Yes, ANOTHER) buck! He is such a looker, Blue Otter Senior Netherland Dwarf Buck. Plus he's a twice proven breeder, there is a picture of him at the bottom of this post.
Willows last litter have all been sold and gone to their new homes, with the exception of the buckling Mia is keeping as a pet, and one doe kit that will be going to the pet shop this week. I think we will be giving Willow (Or, "Wally" as she is sometimes called :3) a well deserved break from breeding, until the end or Winter or so.
The hens now have a finished new house, thanks to Mums awesome building expertise :) Their old house had gaps in the roof where water dripped in on them, so hopefully this one will keep them nice and dry.
Ok, so the most exciting new I have saved for last. Guess what guess GUESS WHAT!?! We now have two ponies! Yesterday (21/ 6/ 14), we went to have a look at a pony that was for lease. We tacked her up, and did some riding in the arena. I went first, and did a few jumps after a bit. It was so much fun! After everyone had a go, we un tacked her, and gave her a good brush. Then her owner asked us if we wanted to take her home then! So we now have a grey cat B miniature gelding, Peanut, and a flaxen chestnut 14.3 hh Quarter Horse cross Welsh mare, named Briny. We are going to start riding her tomorrow, I can't wait :)
