Persimmon Hill Ranch

On this very warm day, in the sunshine, this girl puts her head into this big, metal tube. I guess she's taking a nap and if she can't see it, it won't hurt her.

I think these butterflies that visited my zinnias today are Eastern Tiger Swallowtails. Yellow butterflys symbolize peace. Anyway, they sure make me smile and feel peaceful.

The moon tonight. Love it.

This guy is looking for green pastures. He is proven, just over 3 years old. He is KIKO but not registered. If interested give us a call.

Goats getting their wellness shots, hooves trimmed, etc. Not near as traumatized with this set up.

Kids are everywhere!

Just another practical use for those masks. Helps a lot when you have to go outside in freezing weather to feed a little kid.

These KIKO Billy guys are ready for greener pastures. Black and white is a proven New Zealand NKR registered herd sire. He consistently produces more doelings than bucklings. Tan and white is a Purebred KIKO. He has been on loan to other ranches. Prices are $550.00 and $450.00. A Sale is pending onthe tan and white Purebred Buck.

A mountain full of kids playing hard. One adult is baby sitting. It's like there is an understanding that someone has to stay with the kids.

He wants to get over that fence so bad and she wants him over. Where there's a will, there's a way.

Christmas eve sunrise on Persimmon Hill. God's creation takes my breath away. Praise His Holy Name!

Had to take this picture of typical goat life.

Gabela is her name. It means determined because, in spite of the fact that her mom rejected her, she is very resilient.

Our first kids this year. A little boy and a little girl.

First time to have duck callers at my front door. Awe....the country life! Now if I can just get them to w**d the flower gardens, we'll have it made!

Our watch cat.

They are doing well.

Repurposed a broken rain barrel into a duck house. We'll see if they accept it.

Moon over the barn. Breathtaking.

An addition to our ranch....new herd sire. He is the son of Outlaw and Iron Horse's daughter. Shout out to S&S Kikos. Yet to be named.

They love to sunbathe on the freshly mowed grass.

She layed like this for so long that I decided to get her picture. This is the proper way to get your vitamin D.

Active little kids all around me.

Well....so much for that plant.

Found opossum in the hen house sleeping. It's going on a nice buggy ride.

The goats sure are enjoying the sunshine today.

Huh-oh. Look who is growing so much that the bath tub won't hold her much longer.
