Thanks all. It sure wasn't one of my favorite days.......All that potential just laying there dead, just makes me ill.
Angel has been spoken for. Since a few minutes after I posted actually, I just haven't made it back to the computer till now.
Thanks again.
On a lighter note, I laid Handsomes body on the brush pile up at the dairy farm, so it could be burnt. Our farmhand looked at him and asked my Dad why I had cut the goats ears off. Dad told him it must have been because he was registered and I needed the tattooed ears for my records.......Dad knows better than that......
I had to inform the hired hand that it was the breed, and that I didn't have a drawer full of tattooed ears from dead goats.
