Every farm needs a pet, right?

Well I never thought I would live on a farm, it just wasn't what I thought about growing up! No one ever says "Hey , I want to be a farmer when I grow up!", or at least no one I knew! However my kids, and my friends kids definitely have that desire, at least to some degree. Our newest addition, besides 6 new puppies, is our very own Keet. Those of you who do not know what a keet is, it is a baby Guinea. We hatched out 4, but only one remains! Its tough on a farm! We decided to go ahead and let my second oldest son raise it inside, at least until it gets big enough to fend for itself. I think it is enjoying the warmth of the fire, and our kitchen table!


Thankfully keets have a little more bowel control than chicks!
