Now that three of the goats were sold last week, (they are now lawnmowers on over 1200 acres about an hour south of here), the head goat "Shortnin" is thinking she has to reestablish her position in the herd for some reason.

I took these photos the other day after milking.

Here she is getting ready to head butt Shadow.

Here they connected, it is very gentle butting action. But I was surprised to see her rear up like that.

Here are Ducky and Countess watching the show.

Funny this photo reminded me of an old one I have of Spartacus when he was a pup learning to catch a frisbee. Same type of "flying ears" ...

I cropped and lightened the photo a bit.

NOT Southern, Ca. :)
I don't know how that goat can get off the ground with that milk bag. You would think it would weigh her down. :lol: Countess seems way to sophisticated to be involved.

Spartacus actually looks small in that picture.

Are those 8 foot fences?

The fence is pretty tall, but I am not sure how tall it is... I am only 5'2" so it is tall to me... I will kind of eyeball the height and see what I think it is next time I am there.
