For free?
Odds are someone will probably want him for dinner.

Boer wethers are useful for dinner and thats about it, IMO.

Twilite, I was going to say I would get him for butchering, but after reading his little story I don't think I can!
Hope you find a good home soon. Good for you for rescuing him.

Yeah, well I was hoping that maybe some family would like him for maybe their 4-h kids or something. Maybe train him to pull a cart or something or maybe even be a buck companion. I don't know.

I thought about sending him to the market but I couldn't do it so I was hoping someone would want him.

Too far for me too. I live in the SW corner of MO. but the gas to get there would not make it worth it. Sorry.

That's okay, there's bound to be someone who can get him. If not I may have to have someone take him to the sale barn for me.

Thor has found a home! A family just came by to say hi to all of my animals in the back yard and I was joking around about them taking Thor with them and they asked if I was serious. I said that if they took him he was theirs! So he now has a loving family with two little kids to love on him.
