Butterbelle is now on heat and we contacted our AI guy so he could come out. Sadly he didn't get the Jersey bull semen from his supplier yet, so we'll wait until next time. Luckily it's only a three week wait. This probably works out better anyway, it gives us more time to work with Butterbelle and get her more used to being led with the halter/lead rope.
Our beans are up and we had a nice rainstorm so they're nicely watered. The chickens have slowed down a little on their laying, probably due to the intense heat we've had this week. I found this neat little egg basket at a local store, this is what's left of this week's egg haul. We go through a lot of eggs a week!
In other news, our oldest DD has been "adopted" by some of our friends and has an open invitation to go out there and ride one of their horses. She is thinking of entering in the 4H barrel racing this year.
We are also planning on buying some Ossabaw pigs in a few weeks. They are a good size for our smaller acreage. Not sure if we will just raise and then butcher, or try breeding them. We'll see ;).
