I still love your Bucks color...I am jealous.
If you saw how short and tiny and cute he was you would probably not be so jealous. :p But if your into small tiny bucks, his newborn son looks just like him and is for sale. ;)

I saw his little son and he is adorable. I don't need anymore Bucks though.

Stuck 30 eggs in the incubator yesterday and I have a chick order coming this week. I am raising up some layer pullets for a friend. I will keep them here until they are about 6 weeks old and don't need a heat lamp. The eggs in the incubator are my darkest chocolate brown Marans eggs and my bluest Ameraucana eggs. I have them all running together so the chicks that hatch will either be pure bred Marans, Ameraucanas or Olive Eggers!

Sounds like we are on the same wave link. I too just put about 30 eggs in the bator but I will have, buff orpingtons, giant buff Cochins, Campines bantams. My chick order will be in next week they are white orps, buff orps, red sex links, barred rocks all pullets

I can't find any focus on where I want to go with goats. I love them all. I would love to have a small group of nigerian dwarf goats because they sell like hot cakes around here and they are soooooo cute and I already own a reg. buck. I want a few Nubian girls for milking because they are beautiful with their floppy ears. I want a Kinder herd because of dual purpose goat possibilities and a medium size too. I really should only have 5 to 6 goats on the property I have, So I just can't decide. Part of me says have 2 of each kind and part of me says pick one breed and stick with it. How will I ever choose. :th

I found one good one to add to my goat collection. ;) She was born on 1/18/12 and she has amazing bloodlines! The breeder tried to send me current pictures but she moves around too much. So these are the best I can get until I have her here. Registered Nubian with Goldthwaite, Wingwood and Sunset Pines on her pedigree :D She has really flashy markings! I can pick her up in a few weeks and finish bottle feeding her or let them wean her and then pick her up. My deposit is paid. :D
