We've completely redesigned the website and updated all the content. A lot has changed on the farm since first making the site a few years ago. We are pretty happy with the way things look over there!

Also, the blog is now premanently relocated to the regular Sand Holler website. This will be the last post over here at blogger. But keep reading about our adventures on the new blog!
New Sand Holler Blog!
I haven't quite yet been satisfied with any "feeds" or "follows" for the new site but do stay tuned as I hope to be adding that feature there soon!

More and more babies!
More babies are coming along every day now! Shellie was the first with the triplets and now we have six more. We still have one goat past her due date so any day now. Things have been crazy (like every spring...), so I don't have too many pictures downloaded yet to show off.
But speaking of showing off, I thought I would at least post a picture of the proud Papa of about half the goatlings this year. The last two years, we've bred to Valentino but finally decided we needed some new blood in the works, so along came Cinnamon! He was a bit of a beast and spent much of his time on the roof of the barn!
And speaking of being a beast...Willa spent much of the weekend pestering the new garden guineas. She loved to make them squawk and send up their alarm call!
In other news...ok, you're going to think we are crazy. Here goes. We had a "sighting" at the farm. It might as well have been an alien spaceship for all the incredulity. A large, 100 poundish, spotted cat jumped out of the creek bed and walked slowly across the road to the neighbor's property. Yeah....we are talking jaguar or leopard. My brother, who saw it, is leaning towards jaguar. He is probably the only person I would believe who came to me with reports of a jaguar wandering around the farm. Apparently it was well fed, so we are assuming escaped pet or zoo critter. We even have a zoo 10 miles away but they claim to have never had a spotted cat in their collection (establishing deniability for liability reasons!? :P). So....could this have been on the farm?!?!?
