Move update

The male llamas and the nine chickens are moved and doing well on the new property. The chicken house is in the llama paddock for security. We have been driving up everyday to feed, water and check on them. Everyone is doing well.

Tomorrow we move the turkeys and the rabbits. And on Wednesday the goal is to move the goats and the rest of the camelids, as well as the pigs. Then we will stay overnight in the camper and be living full time on the land.

Yes, there is still so much to do. We have not finished the office for Richard, which means he gets to set up his computer station in the van. I'm not sure what will happen to our houseplants as they were going to go in the office space. We still need to hook up the power station (windmill, batteries, invertor, wiring and what not), set up the well (pump, hoses, battery and solar panel) dig in the cistern and get it filled, put up shade and shelters for all of the animals, finish the fencing for the goats ( must get done tomorrow), finish moving our household to storage, clean the farmhouse, muck out the barns and take them down at the rental farm, move compost, and get the garden set up at the new place.

On the plus side, the Hemp seeds have sprouted!

We have to be out of our rental farm on Saturday. Entirely.

If anyone is looking for something to do for a few hours...we sure could use the help.
