Bo


Bo will be a month old tomorrow. They grow up so fast :'( He is an absolute joy and we are so blessed to have him. He loves scratches and comes right up to to get them as soon as he sees us. He does give his poor mama a rough time though. lol Bo is for sale for $500, a $100 deposit will hold him until he is ready for weaning.

Our Breeding Rams


Here's a pic of our three breeding rams. Magnum, Angus and Bravo. It won't be long now and it will be time for them to go to work. Right now they are very content and all three get along will with each other.

Country Road, Take Me Home (or to the sheep)


Matthew and I took a walk down a country road this morning to visit the sheep and goats. It is a beautiful day here and we just couldn't stand to be in the house any longer!

Mary and Sunny

Today I was able to sit and spend some time with my dear friends, Mary and Sunny. Mary is a registered Shetland ewe and Sunny is a registered Kinder doe. Both enjoy lots of chin scratches and attention.

Catching UP

It's been almost a month since I've posted and a lot has been going on here at Redbud Lane. Mostly we are being overrun with ducklings! These silly ducks are sooooo good at hiding their nests. lol Mrs. Mallard took her 14 babies and left so we don't have them anymore. We do have the ducklings out of 3 Indian Runners' nests, a total of 28 and two more are still sitting. These are all mutt ducks, a real mixture of different breeds. They are being sold for $2 each if anyone is interested. :)

The lambs are getting big and weaning is just around the corner. I believe we have decided to spend our July 4th separating the ewes from the lambs. Three of the wethers are sold and I've decided to keep two for myself. That leaves four wethers still available at $50 each or a discount if you purchase more than one. I have quite a few ewe lambs available too as well as some of the moms. I have decided to downsize a bit until the boys are finished with school. I need to take pictures but it's hard for me. Some of the moms have been a part of my flock for several years and I'm having a hard time with my decision to let them go to new homes.

Our miniature donkey, Pearl, is still expecting and getting quite a belly. We can hardly wait for the baby to arrive.

I promise more pictures in the near future, feel free to bug me for them! :)
