Amazing Miracles (to me anyway)

Wow - I just came in from milking my two girls (Ori & Pepper). They blow me away on how much milk they give. Both ladies are feeding triplets yet they still gave me 60.4 ounces of milk this morning. Pepper gave me a full quart and Ori was at 27. I only milk once a day at the moment. The girls go back into their pen after milking and spend the rest of the day with their babies.
Speaking of the babies - they are so much fun to watch play. It's going to be a gorgeous day outside today so they should be running, jumping and doing the baby dance outside most of it. When you walk in the pen they are all over you. We have a few little toddler chairs in there and if you set down in one Dora is the first on your lap - then Snazzy, then whoever else can make it up there. It's kinda fun watching seven babies try to get up on your lap. They all crave attention - reminds me of puppy dogs.
I haven't written much on the farm lately (but I'll get back to it). We're getting ready for our First Annual Wether Auction tomorrow. If all goes well we're hoping to make this an annual event. It's mainly a sale for 4-H kids to get their show animals. We don't have a lot of Nigerian Dwarfs in the county fairs around here but we're hoping to change that. We have five breeders coming and bringing wethers all under one year old - should be lots of fun. Once we get this first sale under our belt then I'll post a webpage about it and start making plans for next year.
My kids always went every year to buy their 4-H hog at auction, so I thought why not do a goat auction. The only problem was I didn't come up with this idea until February and wasn't thinking about how young some of these boys would be. Oh well, we've come up with about 26 so now we only have to hope people will come to the sale. Next year we can schedule breeding so that babies will be ready for the sale.
Well - gotta go get busy - lots to do today to finish getting ready.
Hope you are having great weather wherever you are. If you are a follower of this blog - drop me an email and introduce yourself.
