Homesteading with children

• Monday, March 10, 2008 - Homestead happiness!!

This weekend we got some things done! My husband put up a fence for the baby goats so we could wean them. We tried electrice fence, and started out putting up 3 wires, they jumped through, then we added another one, and another until we had 6 electric wires, that wasn't holding them in, they either jumped through or over. So my husband made another trip to the store and bought fencing with little squares. That held them in!! So this morning I milked Newbie, I got one pint of milk, I don't think I got it all out, but I'm just learning here. Tonight we got 1 quart. The milk we got this morning, we drank and it was really good! We're excited about it! (we're first time homesteaders!!)

Here's my husband fixing up the fence!

The baby goats trying to get food from the feed bin!
