I don't believe I'll feel like joining that polka party for quite some time :/ I did not have a good day today, not in the least...I feel like death, first of all, and then Harper, one of our doves knocked a broom over on himself and snapped his neck :hit and THEN Elf decided she wanted to be out of the fence, so she got out, and I can not for the life of me figure out how :barnie

I think I'm going to go into hibernation for the next 6 months :hide

Uh-oh....I am home alone, at night....isn't this how most horror movies start?! :hide

Bonnie looked very pregnant today, but she's not building an udder at all and there hasn't been any discharge or anything...I don't know what I'm going to do with her, she needs to make up her mind whether or not she's pregnant :/

OH! and tommorow were going to see some nigoras, theres a possibility we might get one!! and all of the ones were interested in have BLUE EYES :love :weee

Finally we have our internet back :weee I don't think I was mad about losing the internet so much as being mad about Netflix not working...I mean, the thing cut out in the middle of Dr. Who, and I think thats punishable by death or something :smack :D

We didn't visit the nigoras yesterday as planned, we figured it was probably not a good idea to bring home another goat at this point. I'm thinking that if Bonnie ever has her kids maybe we'll keep a little buckling and wether him....I just wish I knew what was going on :/ Actually, Hank could be pregnant, his stomach is certainly big enough!:gig

Finally decided I'm going to get another goat for Bonnie. Not sure what kind though. I was thinking that if she had a buckling I'd wether him and keep him, but I'm not entirely certain she's having kids, so that might not work out. It would be nice if I could find a nice older goat about her age. But then, at work there's a nubian buckling who I really really REALLY want, but I don't know if bringing him home would be such a great idea.....I just don't know about anymore :/

How about a nice, small, calm, good with others, goat? Like another nigi or a pygmy?

That would be very nice except I would have trouble finding one. And I really love that nubian, for a lot of reasons.... I would be very sad if he was sold to someone else and I never saw him again :( I'm not sure what's happening at this point though, my brain is too frazzled :idunno

Himmm.. It's a wether? How much? Can you afford feed, have enough room, all that stuff? I've heard about nigis getting along with horses so I don't think nubians would be that bad. Could you take a "test drive"?

I could handle him just fine with food and everything, and he would be wethered. I could probably work out a test run with my boss. I was just worried that a younger, more energetic goat might not bond well with Bonnie, or that it might defend itself too violently and unintentionally hurt one of the little guys.

I would consider a "test drive"
