I like the name Marigold--that's what I named my tractor!

I'm going to give you more when I can
It's just uncanny to me the resemblance that Marigold has to Zamia
Same color
Same white belt
They are related but not that close on both sides of Marigolds pedigree
I'm just telling you she is a winner

ETA
You can have a line and it doesn't always work out
But sometimes it does
Sometimes there is something there really great and it shows up
I just look at them in the field
Or sometimes side by side from behind when both of their heads are in the hay bag and I just see something there

I think sometimes you can have a gorgeous goat but then that same goat can go through an ugly duckling phase when young (year-2) and then it is beautiful again with a little maturity.
I think that is why some goats do better with maturity and end up finished as an older goat.

Their appointment at the slaughterhouse is July 6th
That isn't changing we had to make the appointment 3 months in advance
So it doesn't matter what they weigh
But I went to a 4 H show and sale and saw 1100 lb 1200 lb and 1300 lb steers
I would estimate the smaller Steer is around 1000 lb and the bigger one 1200 lbs
Either way I'm eating steak at the end of July
