Man its raining Goats over here. These kids are a week early. I didn't think they would plop out after a snow storm, crazy animals.
Twin's this time from Louise the brown and black painted Nubian/daughter of Aggie who just had the trips.
The twins are mostly black with some brown on their legs and butts. The twins are a buck and doe.
Aggies trip's are two buck and a doe.
The two mom's have ALOT of milk so I'm milking about a quart off a day but still plenty for the little ones.
Rolley by the way has a majority of his bandages removed and off all medicines. He will have a cast for a little while yet but does manage to get around. I'm always surprised by Dogs.
Butch and Sundance have taken a liking to Rolley as he likes the rest next to the Sheep enclosure so maybe one day I will let Rolley take his place with the big boys.
congrats on more kids.
I am glad Rolley is doing well and may actually get to have a job after the tragidy that happened a month or so ago. It amazes me how rezealant animals actually are. I can't wait to hear when Rolley takes his place among Sundance and Butch
He already gets way more attention than before, lol.
The High School football player comes by once a week to play with him. The young man is still interested in Sheep and Goats. His parents bought him a pair of ewes a month ago, which he has proudly showed off. His family have a few acres on a hill just outside of town. I think the ewes are Merino's medium wool.
Sorry not Merino's but they are Royal White's.
I had not heard of them until looking them up. Its a nice new breed or hybrid.
Had a few friends come over yesterday. One of them had a beast of a dog for an LGD. He told me it was a mix and the part he knew was from Croatia and a Tornjak. Yes, I had to look this up too. The dog has since died but I remember after my first unannounced visit that dog nearly took a chunk out of me, lol. He bred the mutt with a GP bitch and now has some of the progeny working at his place. My friends wife is from Croatia and brought the dog with her when she immigrated to the U.S.
Anyway we had a nice BBQ Chicken with several couples. Get my tooth pulled today in twelve hours, fun, fun.
Oh yeah forgot to mention the Llama's will be going down to Farm 2 as soon as my friend can pick them up. Clove is pregnant but not due till summer at least. The sire was a big all white male so hopefully we'll get a white one but who know's. The records for the studs breeding has him producing around half of his offspring as white.
Clove and Brat will enjoy Farm 2 and its large rolling hills. They will be watching over the Boer does and mixed Boers while the Anatolians are with the Kiko's.
