[the funny farm6]

i had a lady stop earlyer and make a comment about my billy goats big belly. the lady doesnt live out here, and doesnt own goats. i have always welcomed people and love to show my animals off but people are just snarky and rude anymore. i dont know if it was real concern or what but it made me uncomfortable. and now i worry about my billy. i hate this. i am realy thinking about putting a gate across my driveway with no traspassing signs.

Can you post pics? I've seen goats w/big bellies B4 that had no problem. In fact w/one, I had to laugh. It was a whether and was in a zoo. (They had a petting zoo in it.) One woman was looking at it and saying something about it was going to have babies soon. I don't know if she believed me when I told her it was a male goat.

OMG - love those pics!

this is the only pic i hav of him right now. he is on the far right walking away.

Just from the pic - I don't think his belly looks that big. Of course, I have mostly pygmies on my place and they are known for their big bellies anyway.

It's hard to tell too much from a pic, but my guess is that he's ok....

was asked today if i wanted to come back to work in the kitchen. dont realy want to, but with the new(er) truck payment... i hate that place.:/ might consider it if i can do it part time, on the days i specify. at least then i can pay for my animal feed and hubby can shut up!

payed the internet (we have the chip from our cell phone carrier) and it was late so we had to call in a recite # and they had to transfer us 5 TIMES before they got it straitened out.

and can anyone tell me about those kendals? my daughter wants one for christmas. and i dont know anything about them. the girl reads CONSTANTLY!!!!!!!!!

i hate this. i woke up at 3 am amd was thinking something had to be done today that is pretty important... but what? dang.

that goat is fine
some of my billys had monster extended sides. way more than that and they were fine

rumen guts expand weird for sure

i thought he was, he is such a baby! he cries if i am late with the feed! and he jumps up on me, which i am going to have to put a stop to.and his color is good.

i think i am going to move the goat pen to the back side of the property. and i am still trying to talk hubby into putting a gate across the driveway.

got a mini donkey. hubby brought him home today! he looks just like jimmy in mini! grace looked at him with a look of "dude what the heck did they do to you?" he had never seen a dog- so he tried to stomp them into the ground. and he doesnt like the goats. *sigh*

i had to catch my turkeys (in the dark) and grabed the female by the tail for like 1/2 a second and she let go of her tail feathers. i hape it wont hurt her. sure wont be pretty!
