FergusonK's journal - Goodbye Java Jewel.

When we lived in South Carolina, a lot of people would trap them then feed them out for 3 or 4 weeks then slaughter. I've had some that wasn't quite as good as domestic pork but it wasn't all that gamey either.

That buck does have a nice rack especially for a cull. :)
 
Two nights ago the dogs went insane. Absolutely berzerk. Apparently they caught, and ate, a raccoon. John just found the tail. Maddie has an infected toe. She goes in tomorrow for antibiotics. She's never been off the farm before and only been on a leash a handful of times. I told the vet to be prepared. She's a sweety but she is in pain.

Tomorrow the does, Brownie, and Maddie get their check up. Does are getting health certs for this weekend, Brownie is getting a ( final :fl) check up so he can join the bucks on their pasture.

Then I have a lady coming to pick up her Doeling.

Then I have to go get feed and hay so I can leave for the show.

Truck is packed minus the goats. Still haven't trimmed them but I'm going to do that Saturday after check in. It's just a winter clip so not as detailed as a body clip. We have good pen neighbors. I'm happy.

I lost one handler for a Doeling in a class I'm triple booked in. Hoping to find a friend to help out that can handle a youngster with attitude.

Junebug is giving us 6 cups twice a day and I still haven't got a scale for DHIR so I'm just liking what I'm seeing for no reason.

I'd have to go back through the emails.

All I know is it measures to 1/10th of a pound.
