I am curious to see if anyone on here has a traveling/mobile petting zoo? I love talking to people about my animals and seeing people make the connection between a living being and what's on their plate (rather it be eggs, milk or the animal itself). I have always wanted to bring animals to...
I was wondering if anyone is or knows of a goat breeder in Indiana. Preferably Nigerian goats but would also consider Mini Nubians, Pygmys or maybe a hair goat! I need a goat to be a companion for Delilah, my new lamb, before she comes home in 2-3 weeks. I could just get another sheep but...
Those are all great ideas! Thanks so much! I decided on a name a couple weeks ago.... Delilah! She is going to be registered as "(farm name) Hey There Delilah"! My mom suggested it (the Delilah part, I came up with the registered name) and when I told my best friend, she said her mom said...
