Good. I am taking her this weekend to be bred to a solid brown LaMancha buck. I thought they were all that black/white/brown swirl color when I bought her.

ha! i thought they were all solid colors when i got mine... then i saw a breeder's with those crazy colors. cant wait to see how my Debbie's kids turn out.

She is gorgeous! Don't you just love the sweet personalities on those little earless cutie-pies? I think I see a bit of rust on her thighs, so watch her mineral intake, make sure she has plenty of time at the mineral feeder with all those big goats around.

Thank you Free. I did notice this a few weeks ago and she was copper bolused last week. It is hard to notice with mostly white or white with red head goats. Since my one other black goat was a little rusty too, I bolused everybody when I did her. They were doing fine until winter hit.

I have 2 mineral feeders in the girls barn and one up in the boys. Mineral intake seems to fluctuate dramatically.

She holds her own pretty well. She is only one of two goats without horns but she will head butt the horned ones and put them in their place. My naturally polled kiko/spanish cross is much more reserved.
