I'm having a total blast with the grands! Today's plans might include a trip to the local skating rink and lunch at their favorite Chinese restaurant. Maybe.... I've been talking with a guy who wants a couple goats. He really wants young ones, and he wants a breeding pair. My job today - to convince him to take a wether as one of his choices. Either a wether and a young buckling or a wether and a young doeling. I've gotta convince him that a ND doeling could conceive at this young age and that it would be very detrimental to her health.... geeze louise! People!

Sheesh! Yeah the whole "breeding pair" thing doesn't work with goats anyway. Then you end up with kids all the time or with two lonely, separated goats.

Yes! Two more down, lol! Both are around 4 months-ish. ND doeling, Kinder wether. Next year they'll look for a buck. I told them that bucklings will be a dime a dozen early next year and they could probably get one really reasonably if I don't have anything for them then.

That's great! Oh you'll have kids... You'll have lots of kids...you won't be able to restrain yourself! Lol!

I am hoping for lots of boys in the spring. We aren't selling any, we'll raise them for meat. Only selling girls.
