Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

so.... when are you getting a puppy?!

She’s breeding her this spring/summer or whenever her next heat is, so… fall? Probably?

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Woo Hoo! Three goats gone and money in my pocket!

 

[NH Homesteader]

Well then, congratulations

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Thanks! Nice people, full of questions. I'm exhausted, lol.

 

[NH Homesteader]

That is exhausting! But makes you feel good about where they’re going!

 

[frustratedearthmother]

True. They're not rank amateurs and they've done their home work so I think it's a good home for 'em. But, I'm still exhausted, lol! I wormed the doe and gave Toltrazuril to the babies before they left. I always try to do that for folks and I always do it in front of them so there's no questions. I also gave them $50 off the price because they drove so far - 160 miles! They didn't even ask if I'd take less - I just felt bad for 'em. I'll never get rich selling goats, lol!

My husband is always telling me to stop giving people deals

160 miles! Wow! Any luck with the horned gal?

 

[frustratedearthmother]

I've had a couple of inquiries about her - but they're rude and they ticked me off so I have a feeling that she'll be staying here for awhile longer, lol. No response at all on the ducks so I get the feeling I'll be learning to butcher ducks...ugh.

 

[NH Homesteader]

They are delicious, but dang it’s a pain. Maybe your dogs will eat them for you, lol

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Maybe your dogs will eat them for you, lol

That might happen, lol. I'm wondering if I can do them like the quail and harvest just the breast? I'd probably still have to pluck that area, but it wouldn't be like plucking the whole bird.
