Thanks, I am happy with the labels. The person that approves them said that I did a better job on my label design and getting all the info in the correct places and correct size than a lot of pros do; she was pretty impressed. That gave me a big smile.

My doe, Hilda the Witch, is at day 147. She is a mini so any day is possible but because we have a love hate relationship (mostly hate) she will go to day 155 or beyond. I am not even looking or worrying as she would enjoy that way too much.

The thing is I am hoping she waits about another month...not happening I know. I have the floor in my milking barn torn apart right now getting it ready for a new coat of epoxy and this doe will hate being milked by hand.

Labels are nice. Like the different colors for the different flavors. I like the blue or the black in the logo; the black is a little "sharper" and the blue is "prettier". Either will do you proud.
As for being without fresh milk for approx 2 months; why not say you are a seasonal dairy, with the does having a winter break before they kid again....?

Your sheep will probably do great with them. I have a couple of small goats that hop right through them but I will be making a change on them yet again. I notice that Francis rubs his back on the top of the triangle, I am thinking of trying one of them with no top bar and since this in on stock panel it will easily be stiff enough. Also, I think that the "v" is important to keep my goats out and mine is too wide so I am going to narrow it down tomorrow. It is only the small goats that go through it, the big ones don't even try. So here comes modification number 7.
