New animals on the farm

K8 holding a newly born ram.

K8 owns the young momma ewe, "Quarter". We had no idea she was pregnant. 

A neighbor offered us a free 11-month old Red Wattle pig, so K2 started building this pen with K8's assistance (K8 is just out of the photo holding his new lamb).

They delivered the pig this afternoon.

K2 giving her a shower, because she was dirty and stinky!

We think she is about 180 pounds. We'll fatten her up until Oct or Nov, then put her in the freezer - lots of bacon, pork roasts, and seasoned sausage.

Jack-Jack came over to check out our new addition.
