They are very cute ;) I don't know why you think they are ugly. But no, I don't want them :lol: I just told my kids about the new girl and they think I am nuts. I am, however, trying to talk my BIL back into goats and have told him about those does. I think if his shoulder didn't hurt him so much, he would be all over them.

but I not only work full time I have a daily commute time of 2:15 to 2:30
:ep I complain about my hour commute
That is round trip. In the morning with low traffic I can make it in an hour. Home there is always some traffic.

Still sucks! But that is the price we pay to live in the country and have our little farm. I think it is worth it. http://www.pic4ever.com/images/treeswing.gif
we are about the same - I drive an hour one way - yep I complain about the drive, but I like living in the country. My neighbors are literally cows :D and I like it that way.

I don't necessarily think Togg babies are ugly....I just am not a fan of the breed itself.
My dh, however, will wax on for hours and hours about how pretty, smart, friendly, etc. they are...and I *will* concede they outmilk most of my Nubs.

BUT....I had to rub it in to him today that Dazzle made 2oz more colostrum in her 1st milking than Itty did.

I slept for an hr. and 45 minutes, woke up ravenous (my 'meal' today consisted of a banana and a couple Hershey's Pot Of Gold chocolates, :lol:), fixed and ate dinner, and now I'm going for more colostrum / feed the barn babies.
I think I'll have about a gallon of colostrum heat treated and ready to feed when I'm done, from just 2 does!

When I was down there at feeding time, Foxy was passing her plug and her ligs were softening. I'm really, REALLY hoping she waits til tomorrow.
