Hey everybody!

My owner went and bought herself a new horse on New Years Day. She was brought home the following week, and is now enjoying life at SonRidge farm!
Her name is Bella, she is a Appaloosa cross, 15 hands high, and around 15-16 years old.

Please welcome her to our farm, and enjoy the pictures of her!!

Photos- Alpacas

These are pictures of the Alpacas that live on my farm.

They are all rescued just like the Llamas, and get to go to petting zoos too.

Some people ask my owner what is the difference in Llamas and Alpacas?

Well first off Alpacas are a lot smaller than Llamas, so we have a lot of people think they are baby Llamas! Next, Llamas' and Alpacas' ears are different shapes; we say that the Llamas have banana ears. And last, Llamas are used for: pulling carts, pack animals, and they can be ridden (by small kids), but Alpacas can't do any of that, they are more meant for pets and just used for their fiber. (Llamas are used for their fiber, too).

Enjoy the photos, and soon I will be doing a post on goats:)

Hello!

Hey everyone, welcome to my blog!!!!

I am new at this blogging thing, but my owner isn't so she will make sure I don't mess up anything!
This blog is named "Animal Life On SonRidge Farm" because that is what it will be about.

My name is Goss, I am a goose and have lived on this farm with all my animal friends since I was born. If you want to know more about me and my farm you can read about it in my profile.

I won't be posting everyday but whenever something odd, funny, or just plain interesting happens it will be on this blog! (eventually!).

Mostly there are goats. (That is what my owner raises for milk and show). The breeds are:
Alpine
