I was trying to get pics of the puppies but I looked out and saw all the does in the main pen 'posing' together, hope you don't mind...

This is the 'main pen' group, all these does are bred (except 2 Toggs who are waiting for their boyfriend to visit in Oct.)

Same group, shots from different angles.

Some of the girls in the Ob buck's breeding pen...the white one is a Snubian (Nubian x Saanen).

The Ob buck trying to see who's in the Boer breeding pen...Just never satisfied w/ what they have...

This is our 18 mo. old Boer buck, Train. I love looking at him....

And finally, this is the little guy I went to take a pic of, his new owner wanted to see a current pic of him...

Very nice animals...ands a very nice looking fence in the first few pictures....nothing beats a good fence in my book...except good goats,a good horse,a good donkey, well nice fence anyway...I sure have been thinking about a guardian dog...I'm going to try to pasture some animals in a big canary grass pasture down by the river next summer... but it belongs to the coyotes now...and the donkey won't leave the horses and the horses won't waste their time with canary grass....The problems we have....

That fence was originally 5' chain link (we started w/ Llamas...).
We had a mean, mean Kiko buck in the run beside the "main" pen and we used to joke he 'brushed his teeth w/ barb wire and scratched his butt on hot wire'...eventually we had to run 48" cattle panel inside the chain link on one side and lined the bottom w/ rr ties stapled to the wire, because if he couldn't go over, he'd go under.
Sure was glad to see HIM go...but I miss the big kids he made.
I'd add "Nothing beats a great LGD" to your list...they really are wonderful.

I love Big Momma's picture. When did you come to my house and take a picture of my goat and how did you know her name :lol:

I am waiting for her to have her babies, they were off on her dates when I purchased her. She looks like she is going to explode....

My Big Mama (real name Butterscotch...) isn't due until Dec....or maybe January. That's not baby, that's FAT.
