We want a photo, that can be painted onto our trailer...

We've taken a few of our own bunch but unfortunately the only time they do anything cute is when the camera is elsewhere! So what we decided to do is call upon our friends here on the net to slip a few photos on the board that they wouldn't mind seeing on a goat hauler! I will be painting the one my beloved likes most onto the back of our trailer (you should see my barn door... folks keep telling me they're gonna steal it, and probably will eventually... lol).

The photo does need to be clear enough for me to blow it up to an 8"X10" (landscape), and I will put your name on it if you wish, so there's never any confusion as to where it came from... we just want a nice, goat picture on our trailer.

Besides, it would be kinda nice to see some photos of other folks' livestock... gives us a new perspective of who we're talking with, and what we're talking about!

Thanks guys

Can you post a picture of your barn door?

What breeds of goats do you have or want pics of?

The barn door isn't that much... but I'll take a photo of it today (at least it will not move when taking said photo!!!).

I'm in to phase II of my Boer aspirations, but don't figure I'll get to the final stage for at least another three years. The photo doesn't have to be of a Boer, as they aren't very colorful anyway. Besides, if I decide to change the picture on the back of the trailer some day, I know the guy that painted it and he said it was okay with him... lol!

Thanks
Wing

Dona,

We are wide open as to kids, does, bucks, and any combinations! We just want some nice photos and something that will make the car behind us say, "Hmmm, now that's interesting... maybe I'll follow a while longer rather than try to pass!"

... and yes, you can email them to me as well.

Thanks
Wing

pictures

I use to have a punch of old goat photos saved off of ebay that were for sale.(printed them up but didn't buy the originals) There were many that had children riding on goat wagons which were very popular in the early 1900's. Some were early cartoon photos of goats also. I'm sure that they still have them for sale from time to time on ebay. There may one in there you might like also.
Motherclucker, I was glad to see your photos of your goats. Looks as though your herd is still growing. Glad you are still around and have goats.

Where as these are some beautiful photos, and we're very grateful for them all, she still would like more!

Get this... The old girl stated this morning over coffee and a very poor breakfast, which I did serve with a smile and my fingers crossed that it didn't kill either of us, "How about we paint as many different breeds as we can fit on the back/sides/front...!"

I looked at her, told her how much I loved her, and then asked if she had a mouse in her pocket! "What's this WE stuff?" She's supposed to pick a photo that she likes, not the whole dang board of photos!

Aren't those Lamonchas beautiful?

Come on now folks... I know there's more goats lovers, with their pride and joys, floating around out there somewhere! What about some representation from the other 6,000 breeds of weed-eaters! I promise, she will do a good job picking, and I'll do my absolute best at painting, so don't be shy!

At this point, I'm starting to get scared anyway... by the time she's done picking, we might run out of trailer... which basically means some of what she's seen will probably be occupying my entire fall/winter already!

Thanks guys,
Wing
