Thieving & Wandering Goat Update
Our black-eyed pea and flower arrangement thieving goat seems to be on the mend. She finally quit slinging slimy green stuff from her mouth and started eating alfalfa pellets and drinking water and keeping them down. We are soooooo thankful things are now staying down!
She looks emaciated and horrible and her milk is probably drying up. Ugh! Just when we thought that we’d have 2 milk goats producing at the same time : (
Remember my post about finding our goats wandering on the road a couple of times? One of our new neighbors has a herd of goats about a quarter mile down the road. We are now a thinkin’ that Festival (grandma goat) may be pregnant. We wondered why when they’ve always stayed close to home they were all of a sudden wandering. New male goats moving into the neighborhood might just possibly be the reason. The neighbor has both boer and nubian goats, so we could have a meat goat or we could have another dairy goat.
We’ll see if our hunch is right.
