I can see all of the pictures you'll post now. "Here's a picture of Frankie sleeping on a chair! He weighs 127.5lbs." Here's My little Tinker. She's such an angel! She weighs 53lbs!" "Pony has a new trick! He does backflips off of Mama-D! He weighs 67lbs!" "Gray-C has a new big girl halter. She weighs 114lbs!" "Oh no! Something is wrong with Flossie! She's bagging up again. No temp. Eyelids pink. Weighs 84lbs...Wait that was yesterday. Today she weighs 84.5."

I want one... No I don't. I would feel too ashamed at how "fluffy" my girls are.
Yes I do.

I went to a goat seminar in West Plains, and the presenter said this is THE item to have.

I was practicing with it tonight...Boris weighs 76lbs I'm going to futz with it some more before I put Gray-C or any of the goats in there. I have to get used to how the doors work. Plus I have to find a place for it in the barn...it's getting crowded in there, but it looks too cool to leave in the garage
