Another busy day working about the farm. I helped with milking in the morning, and then we all worked on the constant to-do list. Fencing, cleaning, and large bales of hay most often star on this list. Today that was peppered with the discovery of new baby animals everywhere.
Our first batch of 100 broiler chicks arrived today, so Ross and I had fun putting them in their new home.

We had one lamb born this morning, and twins in the afternoon. This is the start of lambing, with many more to come. I also found another litter of piglets during afternoon chores. There will be two more litters of piglets, making 6 total, which seems like it will end up being around 50 quickly growing piglets. Goodness.
After we finished up in the evening I spent a little time socialising with the lambs. Yes, it was necessary... Look how cute!
