My Stinkies

Waylon:

My Stinkies - Goats

Calix:

My Stinkies - Goats

Full rut, not posed... you can probably smell them from where you're sitting. And I just love Calix's urine burn on his nose that leaves a big bald patch. If you could see the back of his head, it's pretty much one big bald spot from getting in fights with Waylon, who is horned - essentially a butting helmet, hehe. Poor Calix.

Oh, the joys of owning stinky boys. Can't wait till it's nice out and I can take good posed (and clean!) pictures of these guys. Till then - this is what I deal with daily.

What a handsome pair. Our duke's face is stained completely yellow -- if we get a good warm day in he may get the hose!!

I too love my "Stinky Boys" well-most of them . There are two young ones that I would sell for someone's dinner (cheap)if someone would buy them.I don't find the smell extremely offensive like some do, but then again, I don't think skunks smell too bad either.

Smells like Baby Daddys to me.

When your own urine is strong enough to knock the hair off your face, yet you do it anyways?
That's a goat daddy right there.

Nice pics.

Nice boys, stink and all. Interesting note on the urine burns, when we got "Rum" a few months back he had a few spots on his nose. I thought it was fungal, never gave any thought to urine burns.

Wow, handsome guys!

Martok always gets urine burns on his nose but he even has them on his front legs this year. Ow!
