How are ya honey? I was thinking about you and your goats the other day.
I gotta tell you, this is harder than I ever thought it would be. Everyone told me sheep would be easy. Not these sheep are the meanest, bulliest (if that is a word) stubbornest sheep I ever met. The white sheep, Bossie, has taken the brown goat, Princess, off her feet 3 times. Finally got separate pens. The brown sheep, Yvonne got loose the second day and found her way to the evil neighbors and got into their bird feeder. The white goat, Daisy, is the sweetest thing but hates the dog. Almost kicked him in the head. I am battling bloat with Princess right now. The lumps have not gotten any bigger. DH swears they have shrunk some.aggieterpkatie said:How are ya honey?

Ain't that the truth!!!FarmerDenise said:I have started to give my goats calf manna. Usually I try to avoid commercially prepared foods, but at this time I want to make sure they get all the nutrients they need.
Both Blossom and Flower have been coughing and they look thin to me. I also have been going around our property and picking especially nutritious foods for them.
We also got attached to Billy. He is an amazingly sweet little billy goat. And pretty to boot. If we had the money and space, we would be seriously tempted to keep him. I wish I already had the experience to feel like I know what I am doing. It sucks beeing a newbie at this.
