Joy sure loves her baby

Look at his stance he looks promising.

This is his favorite toy for now. An upside down feed pan.

I think he would be a good herd sire for someone!

 

[RPC]

As of right now he is going to be a 4-h wether but thanks

 

[marlowmanor]

So out of curiosity, what happens to the 4H wethers after they do all their shows for the year? I know 20kids children do 4H/FFA and they do market wethers, so I assume those are sold for meat after the shows are done. Is that what happens with your 4H projects too? That little boy is too nice looking to be food!

 

[RPC]

Yep same thing happens to our market babies. We even had a market doe last year that went to market. There are so many good ones out there and you can't keep them all so they have to go to market.

 

[marlowmanor]

I guess it's possible a market wether could be bought as a pet by someone. If so, maybe that will happen for this little boy I do think I have fallen for him!

 

[RPC]

Your right it is possible my sister had that happen to hers many years ago when she was in 4-H.

 

[ThreeBoysChicks]

Yeah - On our local Craigslist, there is a young girl begging someone to pay $175 for her FFA whether. I do feel sorry for her. But $175 for a whether is a lot of money.

 

[Ms. Research]

Joy's Little Man is really solid. I think with that stance he will do well for your niece in the ring.

How's Jasmine doing? Hoping to hear real soon another whether is here.

Well nothing new so far today.
