FINANLLY Got them home!!!! (and a thank-you)

After a couple months of research, cleaning out the barn (that was THE major task), putting new stone down with plenty of straw, building the pen, putting up the fence, building the milk stand, finding a goat close to home since all we have is a mini-van right now, and trying to sell enough stuff around here to pay for the goats, we finally got them home!!!

1 French Alpine in milk, and an Alpine Wether. My wife and kids love them!!!

I want to thank pubically all the wonderful people on this thread who have helped me by answering questions, showing me their goats, offereing to sell me one or two, responding to my pms, etc. This is our first expereince with goats, and we are loving it! Thank you SO much for everyone's help!

Congrats!

Congratulations on your goats. May you be blessed with gallons of sweet milk and pure enjoyment in simply watching them play. We love our goats, they all have unique personalities and never stop amazing us with their antics.
