We really like having goats. They bring us much enjoyment and entertainment.

Halle is still shacked up with Jasper so Brown Sugar is alone with the three doelings.

We give them treats every now and then.

This is some winter squash. They all love it.

Since the doelings came from the same herd they are pretty tight friends.

So cute sleeping together.

About once a month we trim their hooves.

Give them a little alfalfa to eat and they handle it quite well.

That is Calvin on the stancion. It is the “bench” that will be used daily when we start milking. It is also handy for hoof trimming, giving shots and just checking out the goats to make sure they are healty.

We will be visiting DiJi Farm tomorrow. It is Halle’s birth place. Hopefully we will have a little time to pick Carol’s brain about goats. It is always great to talk to other goat people.

Enjoy the day,

Karen
