Looks very nice ! :thumbsup on a side note, why do they have 3 cows under the smilies, but no goats, sheep or chickens?

My weather is just getting his beard, it's about 3 or 4 inches so far. This was taken 2 days ago, after we tattoo'd them, so they are green from the ink, Don't laugh too hard, it was my first time ever trying to tattoo a goat. hehe I guess it is going to be their halloween costumes.. They are 7...

He isn't limping too bad today, he is just a big baby... I have had to keep them locked in their run so the dog won't chase him. They aren't too happy about that. But they should be okay to come out tomorrow.

good advice, we have some liquid bandaid that would probably do the trick, but it's a little late this time =/ I will know for next time. Thanks =)

So... how long will my goat be sad and limpy? I quicked his front hoof, and he is not happy =/

I asked the head Vet in charge if I could do that, and I was told (in North Carolina at least) that it had to be a permanent thing, Tags or Tattoo's. some states will let you microchip for Scrapie info, but NC doesn't. I kinda like the green on them, I just hope they don't scare off anyone who...

In order to move them across state lines, you need to have Scrapie information and Vet papers.

Since our goats are pets, I really don't want the tags in their ears. Ours are not purebred or anything. but we need the scrapie stuff to move them across state lines.

@ 20kidsonhill, Wow, you are lucky... our Farm ID number is 9 characters long.... My tattooer is only 5 characters at a time, so that means 3 reloads per goat.. (2 for farm ID, 1 for herd number) On topic, you asked about lamanchas. I found this site that gives you some easy to follow...

Sure thing! As long as you don't mind a lot of pictures and stories of my children, goats, dog, and other pets, you are more than welcome to friend me =) And yes, even though I had on gloves, I got green goo all over me. It came off fairly easily. But if it hadn't I would have gone as a zombie...

So... How do you think I did for a first try? lol

So, as you probably know by now, we are moving, and in order to take our goats we had to either tag their ears or tattoo them. Since they are our pets, we elected to tattoo them. I should have taken pics the entire way through, but here is the aftermath (link should take you to my facebook...

New job, and the wifes family is a little less than 2 hours away (north of Denver). We are looking at houses just east of the springs. There are a few with 40 acres that we are pretty interested in. That would be pretty cool... I would have lots of room for more and more critters!

The real estate lady fell in love with my goats, she spends a good 15 minutes playing with them every time she comes out. hehe We are moving from North Carolina (on the inner banks) to the Colorado Springs area. Gonna be a fun trip with the goats, I'll take lots of pictures =)

please note, the goats do NOT come with the house. lol

So as some of you know, we are moving soon, and we got our house up for sale. The realestate lady came out to take pictures for the website... Check out the last 2 pictures (and the 10th one as well)...

Thought I would go ahead and post here, We are moving to Calhan, CO in 2 months. (East of the springs) We are taking the goats with us, it's about 28 hours of driving, so it should be fun. We sold all our chickens and ducks already.. I sure miss them =/ anyway, I just wanted to say hi, and...

I only let them in the yard on the weekends, they like it, and so do the kids. and the goats love to eat the lawn clippings after I mow =)

Got a great video of my little goats today, I bet you'll like it =) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmTzcEZCjP4&feature=youtu.be

We just confirmed our move date, will be moving on Nov. 30. I am still unsure what we will wind up with. It depends on if I have to move the lawn mower on my truck or not. If I do, we will go with large dog crates, if not, I will make something out of cattle panels. I have 2 months to figure it...
