I've been having a breeding saga with the goats. 😅 Last fall when I got my buck and bred my first doe, it was so easy. I put him in the doe barn and they were done in two minutes. I took him back, and five months later we had kids. Silly me thought it would always be that easy. Four or five heat...

A nice pillow

Oh, good idea!

I managed to catch this picture tonight! How sweet is this?? 😍 I think he's trying to make me melt with his sweetness so I'll forget he was a bad boy today. Also, the level of trust this ewe has in him speaks for itself. It's a good dog if the sheep feel comfortable enough to use him as a pillow.

Thank y'all.

I have been neglecting this journal a bit with the beginning of summer and crazy busy schedule. I will attempt to catch it up! First I want to update about the two puppies. We took them to the vet and he examined them. He confirmed the breed as most likely being pittie/lab mix. He told us that...

Here is a picture of the netting in use.

I use electric net fencing. I would not trust a multi wire system to keep in Nigerian dwarfs. They are little houdinis! Net fencing for chickens is perfect. It is tall enough they are not likely to jump it, and the holes are small enough even the tiny Nigerian kids will not fit through. We use...

Thank you!

Congratulations! They are both so beautiful!

Thank you!

I have a few very chill goats, so yes, it's very possible. Goats have varying personalities, some are more chill than others. As long as they are healthy otherwise, (good famacha/fecals, no fever or cough) I would not be worried at all. Make sure they are getting a good mineral too...

Yay! A baby is the best kind of surprise! I absolutely love that sweet pic of Qinzer with the mom and baby.

He's a pretty boy! I can definitely see the Dane in him with that long nose and big bones.

It could be. I don't know what Carson looked like as a pup, so I can't really compare with these guys. If we keep them we can do a DNA test. I do think the smaller one looks a bit pittie though. He has pittie ears, a skinnier tail and thinner fur like a pit, and in person his face looks like it...

Update on puppies. They now have names.! Ranger and Blu. Blu's leg is going to be looked at on Thursday by a vet my dad found. They are charging $48 to look at both of them, which is really good. All the other vets I called wanted $60 or more EACH just for the exam. They are turning from sad...

We'll see....😂

Well...we brought them home...😳😂

Here are the pics. They looked even worse yesterday when we found them. They were a lot more friendly this morning, let us pet them after they ate and wagged their little tails like crazy. They are sweet, sweet pups. I'm thinking lab mix. We thought the skinner one had a hurt foot yesterday, but...

Thanks, y'all. You're very sweet. We just did what any decent human would, but I appreciate your kind words. ❤️ Thanks for all the ideas! We'll look into it. We also have lots of friends, so that might be an option. Will ask around. I'll take some pictures of them later so I can have them on...
