My life has been interesting... I had 10 kids born around thanksgiving. I wasn't planning for them.... But all are well and growing like weeds. I should have more in Feb and maybe May... Life is never dull around here...

I was watching my main buck court his does. He is a lover. He rubs them, smell them and talks to them. then he might breed them. I thought the season was over but now he is all stinky again and going after does. This last mating put me into Feb...I thought the month of Dec would be my kid month. Now who knows

lovely cooler night, but it still warmed up a bit..The goats seem to like the cooler weather ..
I have two buck I would to sell for breeding , really nice fellows. But if I cannot ell them to the meat market they will go...
Yesterday I felt the earth quake, I wish I had been with the goats to see their reactions. But noreaction when I did see them..
Today, I had some left over celery with hummus and I gave it to the goats. You would have thought I gave the moon. They gobbled it up... So funny,

I need help but no money to pay, I am checking on grants but nothing yet.

Today is so hot....almost a 100....Tomorrow the same. I make sure they have fresh cool water. But my Border Collie like to jump in the trough to cool off. Then I feel I have to refill the trough. They are talking to me a lot.

Today is my younger son's birthday.. It was a blessed day to have him. He has been a wonderful son and I am proud to have him and this great 3 children....
Way to hot...Goats don't like the heat either.

sold first goats for meat

I have nurse friends from the Philipines and they like goat. Sold two yesterday. The going rate is $2.25 a lb , so I did $2/lb.  It was sad to see them go but happy that I am doing what I set out to do...

I have more to sell , I have to get a better way to catch them...I was covered in sweat. Phew and smelled....

What a day, my goats got out and it took 45 min to get them back in,  They really talked to me afterwards, complaining they wanted back out. So I was pooped before the day started
