I thought that Spring was here. I was wrong. It has been snowing again. It snowed last week - dumped at least another 6 inches and yesterday and today it is snowing again. I like the snow, really I do. But come on! I have plans for spring, we have ranch guests that will be arriving. I would really like to get to some landscaping and yard clean up, which I can't do when it's under 2 feet of snow. Okay, that's my rant for today.
The other problem with all this snow is that we are, of course, expecting babies. And the snow just makes it hard to move animals around. We haven't been able to let Danny go outside yet. So playtime with the others llamas and alpacas is just going to have to wait until there is grass on the ground.
Rosey is waiting us out in her maternity pen. We now have 3 mares in the arena and one lamb decided to have twins outside this morning. So we brought her in and she is now in the maternity pen beside Danny and his roommate (no name yet!) The ewe is a Hampshire (white body, black head and legs) and she had two boys - one all black and one spotted. I can hardly wait until they are ready to start visiting and go next door to see who the neighbour is. I'll have to start lurking with the camera so that I can gets pictures of them meeting Danny!
