"Sweet Sixteen"

 The sixteen doelings  held from the 2012 crop are in a secluded field far from the bucks. They are growing very well and a select few will be going to the Appalachian Kiko Invitational Sale in September.
     It has been a wet spring here in the gentle hills of East Tennessee and the pasture grasses are getting very tall.              
       The "H" girls are always glad to see us when we stop by to feed the dogs. I love to watch them run across the pasture with their ears flapping.

"New Game In Town"



 The addition of a large concrete culvert in the front pasture has given the kids a whole new set of games to play. Climbing, jumping, crawling, pushing and shoving are great ways to pass the time. Kids are either sleeping, eating or playing and provide hours of entertainment for the folks at High Meadows. All the climbing on the culvert also helps keep little hooves worn down.
