Eve is growing in leaps and bounds- literally!! She is flying all over the house-thank goodness for diapers because keeping up with the little doeling is impossible! (yes- our goat wears diapers while in teh house- but she is only 27 days old!)
Luckily Lollie, our black lab, has gotten used to her antics and lets Eve jump up and down on her. Pretty funny to watch!
Still winter- still snow on the ground- but at least it is sunny today!!

Today I go online to look for online scholorships for 2 things- A)photography marketing classes, and B) plain ole marketing classes. Have to do something to keep my hands and mind busy while the snow is still falling- (for 2 more months I might add)
I have been looking thru seed catalogs online and in hand- my garden this year is going to be 4 times the size it was last year- and I'm really looking into companion planting and group plantings. Heirlooms seem so interesting- might be fun to try a few of them.
The eggs I put in the homemade incubator Jan 15 seem to be developing well- I candled a few last night- and although I really don't know what I'm looking at he dark spot is getting bigger- so I hope that is a good sign. I also put in others on the 24th- and I'll just keep adding more and rotating as they hatch- until I have hatched out 100- (New pulletts and meat).
I am really getting excited about ordering my Buff Brahamas- but I'm holding off until March to get them- that way by June they'll be ready to go out to their new tractor coop- oh yeah
