Well it’s been a heck of a trip, but after almost 4 weeks we have a fresh new podcast. This one is a little long, we have to make up for the last couple that were short. We have a pack of fresh new sounds from the barn thanks to Molly and Baby. I hope you enjoy this weeks show!

There’s new voices to add to the show, 6 actually! You can hear at least 4 during the show. The ending this week is a little abrupt.

Male: 9 lbs
Male: 8.5 lbs
They are cleaned and separated from her, and walking around and bleating. :) I’ll give her another 40 minutes or so before I go out and milk her for the first time, and feed the boys.
Update!
Cream has twin doe’s Feb 27th around noon. Birth was easy and the kids cleaned up very well. They are learning to walk and I’ll get them weighed and fed in a couple of hours.
This brings the total up to 6 babies so far for 2007!
This is the first podcast of the month so it’s an interview podcast! We have Caroline join us this month. She’s called on the farm phone before and provided a barn tour so you might remember her. She lives on a small farm, raises alpacas, goats, and chickens. On the show this time we talk about fiber and her goats.
In this weeks show:
So the request this week is to call the farm phone with what whacky thing you wish you could do but can’t. If you live in the city what do you wish you could do?? If you live in the country what can’t you do due to climate, etc? The phone number is 206-202-GOAT.
I hope you enjoy the show! If you want to email it’s gfl@geekfarmlife.com
