New Goat Love
So...a case of goat math has struck, and I find my herd one goat bigger! I saw a craigslist add two weeks ago for a 8 month old nubian cross who was being housed with a young cow, two pigs, and a sheep. I fell in love right away, but she was a little pricey. So I figured it wasn't meant to be. Sunday she was listed again on craigslist at a lower price as everyone else had sold and she was all alone. We negotiated her price, and sent blood in to confirm disease free, but I just had to share. She is a real sweet heart, totally gorgeous, and...be still my heart for those tiny ears!

I just love blue roan goats - even if they don't have any ears to speak of.

She's lovely.

Her coloring is just gorgeous, between it and those tiny little ears it was love at first sight!

She's a real cutie & can see why you fell in Love with her!
I can remember when we had 2, then 3 goats & that was going to be it! Just pets!
This past summer before we sold the spring kids we were planning on selling we had 19 goats! I couldn't believe it when I said it out loud to someone either!

We are back down to ONLY 12 right now & hopefully will only retain 1 baby this next spring!
