We went to the Nature Center to pick up a goat. She is an Icelandic and around 7 years old. I put her in front of the barn until she gets settled. The dogs weren't to sure about her at first but they got better as the day went on. She is a food hound and will be all over you if you have a bucket in your hand. I think she will settle in pretty well.



I moved mommas and babies out of the nursery to make room for any new surprises and the bottle babies coming down to the barn. I put everyone out except for the two orphaned lambs and Kayla, an old Oberhalsi doe. Julia Anna and her baby Junebug decided they did not want to go out so I let them stay in. I will move the bottle babies down this weekend sometime.


I spent a lot of the day doing my typing and getting picking up the house then I went to feed. Lilly, Chunk and Bindi are still happy in the Nigerian lot so they stayed there. The Nigerian goat babies slip through a whole and come eat with in the feed room or with the two Nigerians I have together for breeding, Copenhagen and Blueberry.
