New lambs

A family photo
The proud father is in the back. His name is Shawn the sheep and he is a ram we traded out with our neighbor.
Pippin is the mama on the right and the new lamb is a male. He is so cute with black knees, black tipped ears and the black mouth.


This sweet little lamb is one of  two girls born to our black ewe. She is only a few hours old.
Our new rooster, Don Gallo, or Sir Rooster
I have 10 laying hens and I got 7 eggs here which is a good day. I love the different colors- green, tans, and pinkish whites.
My ducks actually lay better than my hens. I have 2 female ducks and they lay almost every day even through the winter. Nice big white eggs. If I could only get them to hatch their eggs! I would love to have more ducks.

  1. This is my second attempt to post a comment. The page went crazy and now I can't find it. I probably accidentally typed a code. I wanted to tell you that I love your blog. The photography in it is awesome. I'm wondering where you are located. I'll be on my way to Villarrica/Pucon area in a few weeks and wondered if you might be in that area. I have friends living in Caburgua. I was looking for information on expats living in the area is how I came across you online. I publish Four Flags Journal and do some other writing. I live in Buenos Aires currently but considering a move over to that area. I'd like very much to be in touch if you have time. My email is [email protected]
