I really don't like my job. Remember that buckling who I really really loved and wanted to bring home? The one I was going to talk to my boss about? Well APPARENTLY at this farm, we get rid of bucklings as quickly as possible. They say the "sell them to a guy who does a petting zoo" but I'm not entirely sure I believe that. So MY buckling, my baby boy, was either sold or culled. I don't know which, I really don't WANT to know, but I'm very upset about it. All of the baby boys are just gone. They were there on Friday, but I walk into the barn on Monday, and all thats left is the girls and the one buckling they're keeping as a replacement for old Ruford. Everyone else is God-only-knows where
:hit :somad :hu :rant :hit :hit

Emailed about these guys, more specifically, Violet. I LOVE her coloring (did I mention red and white is my favorite color ever for ND's?!) and she looks like a really nice goat....if she's not available I'll try for Artica. I got an email back from the lady with the Oberhasli/nubian, but I decided to go with someone a little older.

Ownedby3alpacas dewormed the pacas today, then we walked them around for a while. She had Desmond and I had Kripto, Luke just kind of followed us around and worried about his "babies". Turns out, Desmond likes me because I smell like goats! :D He had goats at his old home, and seems to miss them (he gets excited when he see's mine, too bad they don't seem to care for him) So I went to pet him, and he started sniffing my jacket, then he started rubbing on me! He actually got his little nose inside my jacket to rub on me :lol:
