@Goatgirl47 - As my children would be quick to inform you, there are certain words which cannot properly be used together in the English language. Some of those combinations include the words "too many or too much" and other words like "cheese, pizza, chocolate, and pictures". As a home-schooling Mommy, I feel it is my duty to pass on this little tidbit of knowledge.

ps - Please, don't be offended. :D

Thank y'all! They are both so sweet.

If we can sell Romeo, I was thinking maybe I will be able to keep Lulu and Annie. Or at least one of them. We need to grow our herd! ;)

So I
can feel their horn buds, but does that mean they need to be dis-budded in the next few days? Sorry if you already made that clear...

If you can feel the buds then it is getting close. With standard sized goats that are doelings I go with no more than 10 days. If they are bucklings it is usually about 7 days. The boys can grow FAST and the base of the horn bud can get too big for the tip on most of the burners.
