UPDATE, all the chickens are doing fine with several mother hens doing their part and raising up new stock. Got some Welsumers and Dark Brahmas which are lovely. I also added some Pilgrim Geese to the mix who happily free range during the day on the farm.
I bred Cassie to a Gypsy Piebald stallion and she gave me a lovely little stud cold with black and white color.
Midnight I bred to a gorgeous Black Overo Stallion and received a little filly with black and white color, so I'm seeing black and white, lol.
My Geese have managed to sneakily raise two broods of goslings too which I sold all but two hens, which gave me a fifty-fifty ratio on Males to Females, which I'm sure pleased the boys.
The dogs are doing great and I even added a stray barn cat, which is just a mangy manx looking mix with tri color but mean as hell. Capturing him and taking him to the vet was no easy feat but he's clean disease wise and treated for worms and darn good at vermin control so I rarely need to feed him. I know what you ladies are thinking, "Don't let him around the baby chicks" and I initially thought that but soon found my lady Geese very protective of their domain and the cat screaming as he was chased by a flock of waddling geese.
