We have State Fair in a few weeks.

We've actually transferred some of our animals to our two nieces since youth are limited to 2 animals in an age class and we have more in some.

We will have to transfer a few kids in the spring to the boys names, but right now they just have Pearl and had Mason.

The new buckling will be Skylars.

John gave in. The kid is in the house because he looked cold under the heat lamp.

I repeat.

The kid is in the house.

LOL he was looking up "mini" LaMancha. He said, I like this idea! I said oh lord. He's getting really into it, even taken into looking up bloodlines so when I'm talking goats with my goaties he knows what we're talking about. I still have a hard time with linear appraisals and how they're read, but, the bloodlines I can track. I know good goats when I see them, and one day we will have a pasture full I'm sure.

Remember the totes I got for my anniversary? I painted them with our logo. Someone said it looks like George Washington's wig. Now I can't unsee it! :gig

I'm still proud of this. This was one of the last things we loaded, it's hanging in where the goats will be riding tomorrow. They'll get to eat out of the bag made just for them!

I filled it with coastal and the other one with Sudan.

They seem to prefer the Sudan so far. I may have to get more, only bought three bales when I picked up alfalfa and they are really going to town on it. Hardly any wasted hay around the feeders.

I introduced it in the hay feeder we made the other day, as well as in the feeders we have spread around the pen. (My Queens share the title, but not the takings :smack) The other goats weren't getting any hay, so, this was created to give them less area to fight over. It's working well so far. Prudence and Zinnia have taken this over so we plan on building more.

Ok I really need to try and sleep, but I'm so darned excited and nervous about the state fair I just can't wind down. :confused:
