I bought a new goat today~ a little "genemaster" doe (3/4 boar, 1/4 kiko)~ I'm very excited about her! It's raining like crazy now so pics weren't really a priority but I'll get pics of her and show them off soon! Already named her~ "Betty" She is to keep our current Boar Doe "Butt Head" (if your looking for her~ look behind you......thats why she's named "Butt Head"~ thats where her head ALWAYS is!) Anyway~ Betty is to keep Butt Head company when I butcher the two evil mini's that live with Butt Head currently. I also bought Betty's sister~ but she won't come home for another couple week!
Very exciting time on the Homestead right now. I butchered our first goat this week and we had part of him for dinner last night~ he was delicious! I'm planning on butchering the two mini does soon~ maybe Friday if I can borrow a revolver from the neighbor on Friday. Butt Head has come into her first real season and is ready to be bred so I'll be taking her to the neighbors buck for some "service" ~ maybe on Friday when I try to borrow his revolver~ I just bought Betty ($65 for a goat thats going to eat weeds and provide me DINNER several times when I breed her!) AND there is an Auction this Friday and Saturday........Scott wants to go......so you KNOW I'll be coming home with something new!
I'm LOVING be a homesteader!
