There was a box of 50 or so chicks, 2 smallish pigs and 2 brand new baby goats.
It's crazy these baby goats mother was Heidi... one of the young teenager goats when I arrived on the farm for the very first time. All of my baby goats are now old enough to have there own babies. Laura and Monte named these two new kids Hansel and Gretel. These two look a lot like Nellie did when she was born, they have that grayish black faded swiss alpine look.
The little chicks are so cute and were constantly knocking on the walls of the card board box. As well as walking all over each other.
While I was down there I got to make 2 trays of soil blocks and seed the trays as well. Oh how absolutely delightful to work on the farm again for just one day. :D
I had a really nice visit with Laura and Monte. It felt like I had gone to one of my homes and had been able to recharge my battery for the months ahead.
I am so grateful for the time I lived at Quail Hollow Farm under the mentoring of the Bledsoes. And I am so grateful that I can go back and visit again and again. Life is good.
That is so awesome Lark! I am so glad that a) you got to visit and b) that you got to go there in the first place. I can see that you have grown a lot from this experience, and am glad for you. Especially that you got to go back!
