Another Goat

   We were planning  on keeping one of the babies from our does this year to bring our herd to three, but when we found out that the breeder we got the goats from was getting out of the goat business the offer to get another one was to hard to pass up. Her  name is Meadow Sweet and she is four years old, she is actual Goldie's mother. She has a easy going temperament and easy to milk we're told, this will come in handy when we're learning how to milk a goat. Before we picked her up, she was bread to a different buck then the one we have and will be the first doe to kid. By having two different bucks genes in our herd, it opens up different possibilities down the road.

  With all these different animals running around, the family is learning a lot about what makes them work. Like just the other day my wife asked me " Why does the buck have an udder between his legs?". I simply  replied " Those aren't his udder".
