Farmer Mary was peeking at the pregnant goat ladies udders yesterday at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. This is BUTTERCUP who wonโt let Farmer Mary squeeze the ligaments at the top of her tail which is the very best way to judge how soon the babies will come.
So Farmer Mary looks at tummy size, gait, udder, teats, female discharge… Beautiful long haired BUTTERCUP is pretty ripe but only time will tell. Stay tuned!
๐Prayers please for the Farmers Daughter ๐ฉโ๐พfar away in Boone who has the flu. โค๏ธThe farm will be open next on Wednesday for visits. Be sure and look at the posted schedule closely as Farmer Mary has several away Birthday events this coming weekend. ๐Please read โYour Visitโ at www.winterpast.org. Thank you for supporting a small local farm family animal rescue. โค๏ธHuge thanks to all the great farm volunteers who have been helping Farmer Mary feed animals, set up maternity pens and spread mulch at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. ๐๐๐FRANCES and her triplet babies are doing very well. FRANCES would love some extra food treats. She has to make alot of milk to feed three babies! With Farmer Maryโs arm in a sling she has trouble getting to the grocery store these days.
Any extra fruits ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ฅ or vegetables ๐ฝ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅฆ๐ you have would be greatly appreciated! ๐๐๐If you donโt have time for a paid Farm visit but want to drop off some food treats for FRANCES, Farmer Mary will give you a quick baby goat snuggle!
