First Date!!!


We all knew it was going to happen and here it is!  Ginger is all ready to go on her first date.  She was looking a little too longingly at Doritos this morning and we thought it just might be time.  So off we went.  Here's a few pics.  

She does not like riding and especially hates going through the drive thru but Mom forgot lunch and got had to stop.  People look at you funny when you drive thru McDonald's with a goat in your truck.


She's busy exploring and checking that handsome buck but a little confused about what to do yet.




Here's the buck.  A beautiful boy names Ditto.  Okay, maybe I should've gone and read his WHOLE name before I put this up.  He is from Queenacres though and this picture doesn't do him justice.


Well, that's how that went.  She's going to hang out over there for a few days to try again.  
Poor Heidi will be so lonesome for her but she has Sam, my mother's little wether to keep her company in the meantime.  He is actually her full brother.


He hasn't quite settled in yet even though he's been here a week.  He has not been around other goats since he left his mom so coming to our herd was a bit of a shock for him.  He's getting along with everyone though.  Well, everyone except Doritos who is crazy in rut right now.  He stinks, he's dirty and he sounds weird.  But we still love him, sometimes we even pet him but that's risky.


Here's my boy getting sniffy on Burger and Heidi.  She needs to gain another 15lbs before we can breed her.  Maybe late October they can have their first "date".

  1. Doritos is looking more and more like his daddy. By the way, I sure am glad Ditto looks good but I look plum goofy. :)

    1. If I had thought about it before I put it up there I would've cropped it but it's not too bad.
