OK, so I just spoke with @goatgurl up in Arklahoma and she has been breeding Lamanchas for a very long time. She's pretty busy over the next 2 weeks or so but after that will have a "free" period where we're planning that I can get up there to see & potentially get some goats!

I've also previously been in contact with @animalmom and hope to visit/meet her and meet some of her animals for potential kids next spring summer.

Time to go buy fencing and posts! How exciting is that?

Congrats on the potential goats!

VERY exciting. And work. Where is your tractor with a post hole digger on the 3 point? Built my first H brace today, haven't wired it yet. No tractor so no posthole digger on the 3 point. Looks a lot easier on the videos

Hmmm, sounds like we should have a BYH "conference" next summer/fall...

Not sure where I mentioned it but my son and family are coming for Xmas and my D-in-law requested I do a roast beef for the big dinner, along with onion/mushroom gravy, mashed spuds... you know, the whole big dinner deal. I don't normally do roasts of beef as I've never really been able to "size down" and end up cooking 5 lb or larger roasts, and I'm sorry, but freezing/thawing already cooked beef just doesn't work for me and eating off a roast for 4-5 days gets "old"... Although I do have a habit of sharing my meat meals with Mel, and since I prefer to eat meat, he gets plenty of good meal additions.

just 2 of us here too. Occasionally I will halve a boneless chuck roast and freeze 1/2 of it, but usually cook the whole thing in one big skillet, vegetables and gravy included in the same skillet cooked at the same time.
2nd day is leftover, but 3rd day it gets more vegetables, incl some stewed tomatoes and thrown in the crock pot for veg/beef soup.
