Post We're going to miss him
This is a updated photo of Howie to show how he has grown. He will soon be put up for sale an there is a guy already asking how much for him. We're guessing sell him for 50 bucks. We're due to know he needs to leave here very soon as he is now almost 5months old. Gosh he has grown up fast..He's already showing how a buck should act..LOL..Hope next time his momma has us a doe. He weight now is 21lbs.

We've done good our first kidding season. One doe then one buck. Not bad for a beinger I don't think. The little doe we had we call an check up on her from time to time an she's doing great. You all may not remember that one.


DELETED!!!

Very nice looking Buck! He looks so much bigger than just 12 pounds in that picture & wattles too!

He not a full blood purebred goat. His daddy is a mixed of pgymy/boer an mother is a mixed of Nubian an other breed.

He's not small for the type of goat he is. He almost 5 months old an done lots of growing. We don't think 21lbs is bad for him since he's a mixed goat. So due to his small size he taking after his daddy not momma.
