U/S goat babies

I had Sarah Pinkerton come over to ultrasound my doe goats. Listed below are the results....we will see how accurate we are when they are born! :)

M&M, looks a LOT closer to giving birth then what I originally thought. We aren't quite sure when she is due, but I think that it is 4 weeks max to her due date, with 2-3 weeks being most realistic. The baby(ies) are much stronger & bigger compared to the other goats that we U/S.

Hazal is only about 6 weeks along, so we could tell that she was pregnant, but nothing more.

April looks like she has 2 kids. Last year she had 1 huge kid, so it will be nice to have some smaller ones.

Emma's kids look really tiny compared to the other doe's kids that are due at the same time. Might get some "preemie" sized babies?

Gravity is supposedly due as my first, unless M&M is trying to take the "birthright" for her kids! :) I think that she is due with 2-3?

Rejoice is really large around, but we could only find 1 kid, though the others could have been hiding & we didn't spend much time trying to count kids.......

Anyways, I will let you know what they have & who comes in "first" :)

Hunting....& the Philippines......

I don't have any pictures, but on Saturday, we shot daga & a martines, - in the Tagalog (Philippine) language. Translated it is mice, & a starling, :)

I am travelling this May to the Philippines. Check out http://www.thelordsheritage.blogspot.com/ for all the details!!!

Fun with guns!!!

Yes, I am holding it left-handed!  We learned recently that my left eye is dominant, so I was told to learn to shoot this way.  It actually is very comfortable! :)

Can you see the shell ejecting???

 

We called this gun the “mini-cannon”!  It had a voice that echoed around our neighborhood!

 

Here is Corbin trying it out.

Yes…..I did shoot the bird!  And yes, my brother & I are planning on shooting more tonight……

Just thought that I would shock you! :)……I guess I am becoming a hunter after all…….

 

Grandpa taught Corbin & I cribbage a couple years ago….it is still our favorite game to do together!  Thank you, Grandpa!
