9/5/10
We finished shaving Debbie, and I shaved Almond Joy. We filled out the forms for the Fair. I'm starting to get Joy used to walking, and she's doing A LOT better, especially when I have grain!

You've learned the first secret of goat training lol. They will do just about anything for grain.

You should share some pictures of your goats.

I'll take some pics this Friday I'm going after school for an hour or so on Friday, JUST to work with my goats.

Last Friday

We walked Almond Joy A LOT and she's doing so much better! We also went to go pick up a cow and then we went out for dinner. I'm sorry, I didn't get any pics! I'll get some at the fair this weekend! PROMISE!

This is so awesome that you are able to do this, I am enjoying reading about your experience.

Thanks! This Thursday, I'm going to their farm again to trim their hooves for show, and to drop them off and settle them in for the fair. I also need to get my chickens in.

Good luck at the fair! We just finished showing our animals at our fair today.

September 17-19
I showed my goats at the fair Debbie got Reserve Champion Goat Oberhasli, Almond Joy got 4th in breed class (Because she's short and narrow, but once she get's taller and gets an udder like Debbie, she'll be amazing because Debbie's udder is AWESOME!), 4th in Dam and Daughter, and 3rd in Novice Showmanship. I got some pics, just have to download them

Great pics and congratulations on the fair! What fair was it? So far we've only been able to go to the Hebron Fair....too much work going on at home. We usually hit up all the fairs in the south-northeast corners, but this year had to put them off.
