Great idea! A care and management page. I always love those too! I love looking at how other people's farms are set up.

I'm currently revamping my goat website. Trying to figure out what I should include and what I shouldn't include. I know I want: Home Page Doe Page Buck Page For Sale Page Contact Page What other pages or information do you like on your website, or like to see on websites when your...

That's exactly how mine is. If the cat runs by, or a bug, or whatever he just forgets about you and does his own thing. But he's a hoot. I've never seen a puppy grow so much, or eat so much. It seems like he eats his weight in food daily, and he always acts like he is starving. He nearly...

Goats are getting more used to him. They put up with him for the most part. The two youngest bottle babies are the only ones that will actually walk up to him, or will share his bowl, or let him touch them. The adults are more wary, but only head butt him if he invades their space. The problem...

Since I feel bad that I still haven't gotten a picture. Here is the picture that was on the ad. Mine is "male spot" I really wanted the dark mouth male on the far right or the splash but they were bought 30 minutes before I got ahold of her. :/ Anyway. It's not a great picture because he...

Husband is already won over. :lol: I've caught him out there baby talking to him several times. And everyday he takes him for a walk. When I asked him what he was doing he just said he was "showing him the perimeter." :gig He says he's not so bad, as long as he continues to behave himself...

Now if only I can just sway husband over. :lol: He did not want a dog, especially a big dog. But he agreed because he doesn't want his outdoors turtles getting eaten, and because he knew I really wanted one. But he said it has to stay inside the pen where it can't get near him. :rolleyes: His...

After casually looking at Craigslist and calling breeders on the internet for months, I finally brought home a LGD. He's a pinto unregistered Anatolian with a little tiny bit of Pyr in him. He's so cute, and big. He's sooooo sweet and calm. I just love him already. Mom and dad are watchers of...

:welcome I'm from Southern Illinois also! I breed Kinder goats.

I'm sorry for your loss. :( It's so weird that it's so hot for you guys. We've had rain 24/7 and cold temps for a week. I actually got out my carharrt coat this morning. It's a weird season.

Ellie's kid Cloud. Who is think is a keeper to replace his daddy. He is a rotton thing though, always head butting, and climbing. Meg's girl who still doesn't have a name. The buckling I traded for Tippy. He is SO heavy and wide. Pictures can't show, but he is a tank. His new owners named...

Here is my only picture of all 4 of Goaties babies. Tippy and Cinderella are the far left and far right. Ellie with her snow white babies. Delilah's girl Samantha who I think is a keeper. We have a long line of Sams. We had Sam, Sammie Girl, Sampson & Delilah, and now Samantha. It's...

Sorry no pictures yet. It's been raining for like a week with more coming. I have some pictures I took a while back but its hard to get them uploaded when my only internet is at my parents or work. (Oh the joys of living in the county with no internet service.) :rolleyes: Still missing Goatie...

It's been a long time. A disaster happened here and I haven't felt up to posting it yet. I mentioned my worry in my last post, and it became a reality. Goatie passed away. :hit My Goatie who was the first, and the best goat ever. She was my rotton baby. She thought she was a dog. She did...

So Goatie my fat pet goat is huge. We had decided not to breed for again because she is so overweight, and last time she had problems kidding and lost her kid and it was horrible because she cried for weeks. She LOVES her babies. Well after months of telling people, "No she isn't pregnent, she...

It's about $250 a goat here a year. I think. :P That for testing, hay, grain, shots, wormer. Any vet bills is on top of that. So it might be $0 or it might be $500. Not too bad with 2 goats... But like others have said. I remember when I just had one goat.... :rolleyes: Now It's over 30...

It depends on the goat. I've had a goat cry for her dead baby 24/7 for over 2 weeks. :/ Poor thing. Most likely a few days to a week.

There are some collie/pry puppies around here. I'm a little scared to use a herding bred for guarding though. I'd like to be able to keep the dog inside the goat fence with the goats. So I don't want something hyper that will chase. Collies do seem like great dogs though, my mom has been...

Okay to make a long story short I had a 7/8 pry 1/8 lab puppy before to guard my farm. (I didn't know she was part lab until the day I picked her up.) She was terrible, and chased and killed chickens. We ended up rehoming her after a year, and she is very happy with a family of kids. I'm...

Noo. I just had a long post typed up with pictures and when I went to reply my internet died. So now I have to redo. Gr. Well anyway. "The sisters" Deliah in front, Ellie in back. Both are prego. :weee Couldn't ask for better personalities in a goat. So calm and quite, never mean or annoying...
