I will! It may not be for a while, but I'll see how it goes. I have never dyed it before, I usually don't do much with my hair at all actually, but I wanted to try something fun :)

It's official everyone, Hank is attending his second Community Day! One of our neighbors from up the road brings some animals every year as a petting zoo, and she lets me bring my goats. Last year it was Hank and someone else, this year it's just Hankster..I'd like to bring Bonnie, but Elf can't stay home alone (she's destructive) and she's too bitey to bring along. So it'll just be my little guy with a mini donkey, a mini horse, and a ewe and her lamb. So, if anyone here is near or in Dutchess County NY, you should come to the Union Vale Community Day at Tymor Park this Saturday! There's food, games, tractor pulls and other stuff, and I'll be there with the "Famous" :rolleyes: Hank The Tank (not me, the goat!) and Ownedby3alpacas will be there with the Police Bloodhounds, so all in all it will be a rollicking good time :lol:

Gosh, they oughta use me in their advertising campaign! :lol:

Will they not stand for shearing?
I think some people do that but i really doubt my boys would stand well for that. It would be easier on them if they would, but as they are it would probably just take longer and as a result be more stressful than tying them down.

Well everyone, I dyed! :lol:
I enjoy saying that, it freaks some peole out :D *evil laugh*

I am now sporting red streaks all over my head- at least, I will be in a couple hours. Right now I have all the dyed bits wrapped up in tinfoil, and believe me when I tell you I look WEIRD. (Ownedby3alpacas, if you put pictures ANYWHERE, I will tar and feather you!!) So hopefully it turns out well, if not I'll look funny for a while :)

Anyway, Hank did not get to show off his adorable-ness :( but HankTheTank and i were there with the SAR bloodhound tracking team. And i also was there as part of the town's media crew (which means i get paid for being there!!) and got lots and lots of pictures.

It was fun, even though I couldn't bring Hankster :( It was pretty lively even though it was cancelled....I'm hoping they reschedule it, so and have it again, but officially this time. I love Community Day :love Having two in one year would be like having a second Christmas :D
