Well we're hearing up for the State fair. SFOTis the biggest show we will hit in 2016. Lots and lots of entries.
We're taking 4. Briar, Damsel, Lyra, and Pearl.
I will be clipping goats tomorrow, and will finish painting bags and gear with our new logo in the next few days. I have painted my show box, what was once black and red is now purple and burlap. The purple bags will be painted with burlap colors with our logo.
I still have to knock some details out on the box, like outlining ears and heads to differentiate the goats but here it is:
Logo:
I will be transferring that into all of my buckets and hay totes. We painted a few old protein buckets the same purple. A water bucket and a few other items were victims of my spray paint can.
I'm really excited and nervous. I've been packing and repacking, trying to make sure I get everything. Collars, leads, buckets, hay, etc.
I know its hard to tell from that picture, but, it's a Nubian (back) Nigerian Dwarf (Left) LaMancha (right ) and a ND in the front as a tiny full figure goat. It will be easier to tell once we get them all outlined.
I like how it turned out.
I need to get a picture of the logo itself and upload it. Took me a while to figure out what direction to go with it.
Our Mini LM buck comes home on Saturday. He's gorgeous and a perfect package. He will be a nice addition to our little herd.
Here he is at 3 days old.
He's such an oddball. His twin sister is pure ND. He's half LM. From a sneaky buck! Nature can be funny.
Good luck at the show, and that little LM buckling is adorable; love his color. I had a kidding like that this year too, one was a mini Alpine and one was an Alpine/LM cross.
