Sold two babiesBaby goaties went to their new home Wednesday. It was hard to say goodbye. New owner said they cried loud all the way home.
Mini Mom seems ok. I have to milk her now at least twice a day ... until I figure out how to dry up her milk anyway. lol
This is my second day at milking her. The first day I got almost two quarts. I really love this new gadget I bought for milking her. It's called
Udderly EZ Milker. Kind of works like a womans breast pump I think.
You just give the handle about 4-5 squeezes and the milk just pours directly into a bottle. Mini is being good and doesn't seem to mind it at all.
My other girl Molly however makes a loud bleating noise and gives me a little headbut with her horns.

Sounds like an interesting way to milk her Joyce. Glad you found a good home for the 2 babies. Hard to let them little stinkers go isn't it.

Thanks Betty, yes it's really hard to let them go. These two went to one of our good friends who live here, so I get to see them whenever I want.
Still miss them entertaining us here though.
Going to Kansas to pick up another goat soon. New bloodlines, will be excited to see what kind of kids come next. I may get to keep some

Well Joyce it sounds like you are in the goat business. Going to keep raising them huh? I went by a farm that had goats, not sure what kind because i know nothing about them but, there must have been 50 of them. All little and all over everything LOL. What cuties they were.

They are cuties, they are always showing off, but then so are the horses LOL
Hubby took my farm LOGO, well it's on a disk and took it to the sign place
for me. he's having them making my farm sign out of it and putting up out by the road.
Wonder how many of you have you farm sign out there? Is it a good idea or not? May get some folks just dropping in? We may put a gate then also.
I have been getting a lot of emails from people who like what they see on my website and want to know what are our visiting hours LOL I don't really have any but maybe we need to make some. It's all exciting to me and fun meeting new people. A lot of nice folks

We don't have a sign yet... Thinking of putting Bob's mini covered wagon
up on posts at the gate with a sign under it.. It is fun meeting people interested in the same things that you are...
