Nubians never really calm down. They do have their quiet seasons, err moments.
See poor Jcran is used to the relative peace & quiet of the lovely Boers. They dont scream at the top of thier lungs for hours on end. They talk alot when its feeding time but get too busy stuffing their fat faces once its in front of them.

LOL! This is one reason why I like Oberhaslis -- they do talk to me a bit when they hear me outside, but they aren't screamers!

Nubian milk is excellent, though.

Hey! Where are the pictures? You can't tell us all these funny stories and not have pictures. It's not allowed.
