I forgot to tell you that I love your new draft horses. Soooo neat to own some and get to work them. I saw a 5 year old Clydesdale mare for sale on our local craigslist for just $500. Horse prices are crazy low.

Yeah, that is pretty crazy low. I admit I got a great deal on these. Five years ago I would of never paid this low.

Hey 77 can you have the camera ready for the Galloway delivery

Sorry didn't take any pictures. Helping unload animals into the right pen and taking pictures isn't practical. I have some Dun Belted and a few Red Belted, along with a couple just Black Galloway's that came with these three loads.
They are happily eating hay right now. I guess the farm I purchased them from was having some serious drought issues with all their ponds dry or muddy. The farmer said the cows probably haven't seen a body of water in a couple of months, let alone green grass.

Got a cold snap today. Making the horses all fiesty. Got five seperate muslim families buying my wethers and will be butchering them on my place. I already butchered one and had some...it was ok but not as good as lamb.

Down to 5 wethers and got some new friends or future friends and customers. My wife and I are invited to a Muslim feast tomorrow, which we will be attending, not just for the food but my new customer said many of his family and friends would be their and be potential customers. If I get more customers this way I think I'll bring some of the Kiko does that are bred to Boers up from Farm 2 to Farm 1.

 

[Ms. Research]

Wishing you success on your new venture. Hope you and your wife have a nice time and meet lots of potential customers.

I bet you will like goat cooked by the pros at the feast. That is the only way I have ever tried goat is when some one with goat cooking experience has cooked it. I think I would ruin it if I tried to make it taste good.

Thats what were hoping. We obviously aren't pros at cooking Goat.

I loev the Shires! I always wanted one, or 10. Horses are my favorites but I don't have one. I always wanted one but even with the prices so low I can't afford to feed one and I don't have time to enjoy it.

Here in Kentucky people can't give away horses right now.
