January 7, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

If 2017 saw a lot of changes on the farm, 2018 certainly matched it. The pet front especially had been changed beyond all recognition. Rocher the farm cat is a constant. She earns her keep by mousing. Sometimes successfully, sometimes I doubt her and send the dog out. The most hilarious thing happened with her … [Read more…]

I think most people have an animal that they have loved with all of there being. Whether it is a dog or cat, a horse or even a farm animal, there has got to be one that has infiltrated your soul. For me it is Rosie the dog but, (sorry Rosie) there have been others … [Read more…]

Forgiveness is Easier to Seek than Permission

June 22, 2018 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

I’ve been wanting new animals for ages. My petting area resembles Noah’s Ark with two of everything. Well, four goats actually but who is counting? I was hoping for alpacas or donkeys so obviously I went out one day and got two piglets. I didn’t really think about it (always the best way if you … [Read more…]

Hens are amazing and funny creatures and, in my five years of keeping them, they have provided me with no end of amusement and entertainment.

Get the Pet For Your Children

October 13, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I hear lots of parents say they won’t get a pet for their child until they understand the work and commitment that goes into becoming a pet owner. I understand. The parents are probably trying to teach their children something and don’t want to be lumbered caring for said pet themselves. It is different here. … [Read more…]

September 13, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

Living in a rural location can be both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, you have an unparalleled level of privacy, a constant reminder of the beauty of nature, and an escape from the human zoo of urban living; however, not everything is idyllic as one may first assume if you lived in … [Read more…]

A Whole Year With Pygmy Goats

July 3, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

They say time flies when you’re having fun. It is certainly the case when you have goats. I cannot believe we have had them a year. If you remember, it took a long time to persuade  Hubster to let me get them but he did, eventually give in. I was so excited the day we … [Read more…]

Obsessive Compulsive Dog

June 19, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy 2 Comments

Most dogs have quirks about them but Rosie, my beloved pooch, has always had issues. We have had her since she was seven weeks old so I know she hasn’t been mistreated-something which you would think said issues could stem from. She is a Jack Russell but, most unlike Hubster and I, we never saw … [Read more…]

March 14, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

Earlier this year, I wrote a post about plans. Animal plans. Now I am a firm believer that of you reveal plans, they may not happen. Therefore, the following list is not a plan. It is a wishlist. Which animals would I like on the farm? A pet sheep. I know. I know. The death … [Read more…]

Our New Baby Goats

July 4, 2016 by farmerswifeandmummy 6 Comments

The last couple of months, I have launched a little campaign with Hubster. Known in undercover circles as Operation Goat. He was not convinced. Then our trip to the Cheshire Show happened and I think he was surprised how small they were. So Operation Goat stepped up a gear. I sent him picture messages of … [Read more…]
