I'm back
« on: March 05, 2010, 05:02:18 AM »
Hi everyone,
I've been absent for a while dealing from the fallout of a hostile corporate takeover but we are about to kid here and I'm can't wait to have my milk supply back.  Many changes to the look of the board (as usual John is doing a great job).  Glad to be back amongst the fromagophiles.
Cheers

Hi John,
I can't believe that it has been 6 months! Things are still crazy but we are moving in the right direction and back in the business of curing cancer.
I should have a good milk supply in another 5 wks time.
I see Wayne out there but has Carter gone AWOL?
Cheers

My God Christy, 25 kids from 9 does!!! I hope you at least ended up with more than half does.
DeeJay,  I'll be in touch with you soon for some new sausage recipes as I am planning a Bison hunt at a friends ranch soon.

Other than the obvious mating rituals what does one do with a buck? Are they necessary to herd the goats or do the have prides like lions?

You only need a few bucks to service a fairly large herd. So, other than breeding stock, I sell some as companions for other animals, I don't work the pet market or work with goat roapers  :-\ so  the rest are sold as cabrito aka goat on the grill  :P

A few year ago I had one wether (castrated male) I trained to pull a cart. I sold him, and now he pulls an antique pickle wagon at Renaissance Festivals.

That's really neat about training the goat to pull a cart. Does he recognize you when you see him?

I wondered about that so they are eddible critters. Good to know. I didn't want to suggest it as you all seem to have sucj pretty goats and some folks get very attatched. I didn't want to upset anyone. Thank you.

So do they taste like chicken?
