When I was dragging a mini into the parlor I was pretty appreciative of their size.
As far as being committed to minis, the vote is still out. I only have three in milk right now and they are all still raising kids so that doesn't help either.
My new buckling decided today that he wanted to jump a fence to be with the girls and he got his leg stuck. I have no idea how long he was hanging there but I found him literally hanging over the fence by his hind leg. It very well be broken but it will be Monday before I can get him to a vet.
Why is it that a goat you have no financial or personal interest in will live for ever and one you pay for with either your pocket book or your heart tries to die (and sometimes they do)?
Glad I still have my old buck, I may need him this year.
My first thought was...... a disgusted, well $hit. I have to agree, one you don't like will live forever and one that you paid a lot of money for or that is your very favorite will get hurt, sick or die. It just ain't fair! I hope he does recover. I know he will get the best of care from you, you are a good goat mommy.
