I usually don't have any trouble with naming mine. Guess I need to be around them a bit before anything is made official, but I DO love the name Dakota for the doeling.Shiloh Acres said:I'd save the name Clyde for in case you get a buck later, if you're not going to keep this one. If you do, you'd have to wether him and you still won't have a buck for breeding. That said ... I kept a wether I'd planned to send to freezer camp when I DID get a buck, and he needed a buddy of his own.
I love the Irish names ... so pretty.
Loved picking out names for mine. I took a lot of time and each one had to fit their personality or something about them.

I am hesitant to name the buckling really, because I plan on him not being here by the end of next month........if I name him...it's easier to get attached
That made me LOL!Wannabefree said:I did have a squirrel I rehabbed and before I let that litle sucker go I thought hard about just frying his little butt up and eating him in the middle of a biscuit!! He LOVED to bite the crap outta me! Mean little snot I let him go in the backyard and now he throws hickory nuts at me....STILL thinking about eating that ungrateful brat!!
That's hilarious. I currently have a pair of does nicknamed Mama and Daisy because their registered names were awful.Wannabefree said:I don't think I'd have a problem eating them. I know what their purpose is. Not to say that if I get attached to one that I could eat THAT one, but I usually only have one of each kind of animal that I get that attached to at all. I only like one of my chickens, one of my ducks, and one of my turkeys so far The last goats we had...there were two that I liked that well. Both does, so that worked out well. My buck then, was a flamin idiot I named him Truck...and he might have had as much sense as a truck tire. He was gentle though for the most part until it came down to hoof trimming. He's the one I always had to wrestle down and hold to trim Big Momma and Daisy though...were MY babies I miss those mutt girls!
