Animals



These are photos of some animals at Goose Creek.  In addition, we see plenty of deer, the kids catch minnows from the creek and we continually find giant variaties of wolf and garden spiders.

This is a 69" King Black Snake we found while working in the front room.  Kennedy said, "We could probably jump rope with it."




This is Brad the sheep.  He's a purebred Katadhin hair sheep.  Brad's about 7 months old and follows you around like a puppy.  We let him out in the yard on occasion to eat apples.



This is Thelma on the left and Louise on the right.  They are American Blackbelly hair sheep and little on the wild side.  They escaped when I initially turned them out but we found them across the street on the neighbors land.  It took us about a month to catch them and now they are locked in the barn until I get the electric fence hooked up.  They are both supposed to be pregnant but who knows.  According the man from whom I bough them, they should be due around the beginning of November.  Blackbellies are notorious for not showing their pregnancy until the final month.
