B&B Happy Goats....journal

Happy New Year to you and Leon! I hope it gets better for you two.

Miss @Baymule, we may look into the Keto diet. Both my wife and I could stand to lose some weight -- she about 5 pounds, and I about 55 pounds (well, maybe not THAT much!)

Now if you could only get Leon to cut back on the sugar! About have to buy it in 50 pound bags with that man.

You can make less sushi and eat it all yourself! I hope Leon wakes up feeling much better in the morning.
Not a lot of "pure" sugar use here. We don't even have a sugar bowl. Mostly the granulated sugar is used for baking. We'll not mention my almost daily can of Dr. Pepper with lunch

I think you need the big dog bed that I bought for Merlin but he never used. He preferred to sleep on the ground in the barn alley or outside. Sadly it would cost more to ship it to you than it cost to buy.

So when do you start kidding this year? I start next week.

 

[Daxigait]

My final kidding is Febuary 11th, then I am selling all the kids and doe's...there has been a lot of things going on and it's time for me to move on to other projects

That must be hard. hopefully the new things will go well. One positive I could see about getting out of goats would be less heartache because of the losses. I am still at the stage where I'll gladly trade for the joys.

Plan is to keep two wethers, ..less work, poop and feed not to mention the hormonal ma ma ma I need some male attention every month unless they are pregnant, lol....some rabbits and chickens are going also for sale....going to make life simpler.
And we are still thinking of moving so I need to detach a little and get some things done around here, right now it seems like I can just about keep up with everything...but it's wearing out my "quality time" that I like to give them all, just running the goats on feeding time and not having the time to sit and interact with them isn't fair to them and makes me feel guilty, the rabbits don't get held enough (the pet ones) and the dog training is my only real happy time with my animals...so I need to rebalance the scale so everybody is happy...
So Febuary will be bitter sweet, last kidding, but I get the pleasure of new kids hopping about until they get sold with their mommas, I won't sell bottle kids and I have good luck at selling the little families of goats.

I can't go for that. I got rid of my cows last month Now if I can just figure out how to cut my goats. It's so hard they're like family my girls are.

wow, what a voice typing nightmare that was.
