FergusonK's journal - Goodbye Java Jewel.

Lyra is my . She's a very special doe.

We sold Richard a few weeks back to the neighbor who has Red, Aelia, Holly, and soon the Boer goats. He's probably taking the five we have left tomorrow. If he doesn't I have a lady from South Africa that offered me $100 more than what he did for them, and she's second in line. I won't charge her the extra $100, she just really wanted to "outbid" my neighbor. It's not a bidding war. Both homes would be equally grand, but with the neighbor I can see them every Wednesday when I go pick up a round bale for the horses.

He's home. Settling into his quarantine pen nicely. He's got a vet appointment tomorrow to see what those eye boogers are about. He's had them since disbudding, so hopefully it's not something sinus related.

My DD is all excited and would really like to go and show-its about a 30 minute drive for us- same place that the county fair is held at!

Laughing... I know... I'm mean.....
You should go

I wish I could go (not to show- for the experience) and stop by your place too!
I remember telling you we're going to hang at your place when we aren't at the show..... LOL

@Ferguson K your guy is cute. So little! How old is he?

@animalmom sent you a PM.

I would love to go to nationals this year, but I don't know if I will have the time or the funds. We're shooting for 2018 to be our first year going. Gives my girls more time to mature and gives me more time to plan.

I had a long day today. I am already laying in bed. The dogs are on full alert and I can hear coyote everywhere. Have you ever heard a pack of dogs howling in unison with the coyote ? Hair raising. John keeps going outside and spotlighting the pasture behind us. Several times they've been close enough to catch eyes. The goats have been pushed into the barns and stalls and the dogs are staying just outside of them. It's been raining. They're hungry and brave. I'm thankful we have enough dogs to keep them at bay but still nervous.
