My word Caliber's looking thick. I like Skye, too....but if she can't feed her younguns, you're right.

Next time you come visit, bring me some of that chicken salad. I've been unable to make a GOOD chicken salad since my mom died 4 yrs ago. I just.cannot.get.it.right.

And I Looooove me some good chicken salad. Please ? *puppy eyes*

You don't look like a dork. Much.

*runs away*

Yes I think Caliber gets better each day. I am really liking him. with his undercoat coming up it washed out his spot so right now you can't see it and he looks like a boring traditional LOL. Sky would be perfect for someone like you who bottle raises because her buckling is nice and I know if I would have started supplementing right away he would have grown really well but I waited 2 weeks and that was enough to slow him down but he was 37 pounds on Thursday so he is growing. Next year I will start as soon as the kid is born.

Next time I come remind me and I will make you some chicken salad. I sure do love that stuff I have almost eaten it all already. I will pretend I didn't see your comment about the picture LOL.

Well I don't think you look dorky. ;) I figure you are close to my age ( I just turned 27 this month), but I think you may be younger than me. You are doing what I would love to be doing. You've got a productive goat farm going on and you help kids in 4H. Keep doing what you love! Caliber looks really good. Porche and Jager are adorable. Your nieces are really cute too!

Yep, you look like a pretty lucky, and happy feller to me.

Don't pay any attention to Kim, she's probably coveting that barn!!!

Well I came home to Hope with her head stuck in the fence. It looks like she was there for quite some time. That is the first goat I have had stuck in the fence. Hopefully it will keep her from doing it again but I doubt it. She was to close to a post and then it wouldn't let her horn back threw. Other then that all the goats are doing well. Storm is acting alot better tonight, I might still give him some more meds just to make sure all is well. I need to trim all the girls hooves before I take them to my dads for the summer. We have a frost warning tonight which seems so weird considering we were almost to 90 degrees last week. I am excited because I hope it will kill off some of these bugs but I am afraid it will not stay below freezing long enough to kill them.

Marlowmanor- I am 25 will be 26 in May so I am just a little younger then you. Thenk you I will keep it up as long as I can but right now I am back living at home and I hope I will find a house soon because it is time to get back on my own again.

DonnaBelle- Thank you I do feel pretty lucky and I am happy to be able to do what I like and help the kids too.

I hope that she does learn her lesson. Our Kingston got stuck in the hayfeeder twice. We finally had to cut some cross braces off to keep him from doing it again :rolleyes:

Eleven- If she does it again I will get some PVC and tape it to her horns cross ways until she learns to stop trying.

I just trimmed all 7 adults hooves, that is a chore by yourself. Oh and my does do not like the grooming stand so I have to pick each one up to get them on there and some of them are not little girls anymore. About 10 weeks ago Jasmine got a rock in her hoof that I didn't fine right away. I would guess it was there for a week or so. Well to compensate for the pain she walked on the side of her hoof. Now it is growing all funny and I don't really know how to fix it. The wall has grown under and flat across the bottom. Maybe I will try to use a rasp or something next time but I am worried since it is about 1/2-1 inch of the wall it will bleed like crazy and hurt her even more. I tried to cut and separate it from the other wall but it is just a mess and I am not sure what to do.

Well Jager and Porsche will move up to 20 oz bottles tonight. They seem to be growing really well. I can not wait till weigh-in on Thursday.

Well I think that is about all the news around here

I believe that you may need to inform Kerigan and C'arra that D.O.R.K, stands for

Dashing
Outstanding
Remarkable and
Knowledgeable.

So if you do look like a dork, then you wear it quite well.

Where as, SNOT stands for

Silly
Naughty
Obstinate and
Ticklish

Snots are little people who are trying to tease their big brother by calling them names that they don't understand very well. They need to be tickled.
