Ended up with 1.25" and rained from ~5-5:30 until a bit after 3am. Been a gray day all day with the "threat" of falling moisture but didn't feel any... more like fog. Tomorrow I guess a chance for a little off and on sun then more rain forecast starting tomorrow night and through Tuesday.

@Alaskan, my 4 yr old son knows my rabbit does visits the buck now and then.

My 7 yr old son has been told(when he asked) that the buck and doe visit for babies to arrive. He asks if the buck is married to a particular doe, and I tell him the buck is married to all the does. He doesn't have a concept for polygamy. Haha
So, he asks if a doe is married to the buck when he sees them together, and I say that at that moment they are.

Hmmmmm. That boy is gonna be mighty confused in a few years!

 

[Pastor Dave]

Probably. Just my luck!

 

[Alaskan]

yeah....

I asked the kids just what it was I was teaching them, with all of this goat breeding, and the youngest (just to rile me mind, he does know better), pipes up with "you are teaching us that daughters should have sex with their fathers."

Yeah....

That half ND I was mentioning. .. only buck small enough to breed her.... is her dad.

Dog breeding and livestock. Gotta love it! Farm kids learn a lot not being in the city. Responsibility, hard work, improvisation, common sense, where food and water comes from, the birds and bees, and the list goes on and on.

Street smarts is important for going off to school and any business you may have to do, but I have always said I think it's easier for the country folk to adapt to city than city slickers trying to adapt to the country.

Al, your youngest is going to give you fits in time. He bears close watching that one... very close! ETA, line breeding is a common thing as long as it isn't done repetitively over multiple generations. From my understanding, parent to child (either direction) is better than sibling to sibling.

Darn good thing your children are all boys!

he is a hoot. I have a couple of other trouble makers too. Reminds me of some of the wise cracks I subjected my parents too.

I do keep wondering how in the world parents who have kids of both sexes manage.

I have all 5, ages 9 to 19 wedged into the same 12x12 bedroom.
