Loaded for bear....

Or maybe Goat.


The goat herders.  George worked on the pen yesterday, and Greg put up more panels this morning.  It worked like clockwork.  All 8 males are on the trailer and all 12 females are in the pasture.  It took about 30 minutes to separate them and get them locked in the trailer.


Twelve Nannies.


Four Billies and four wanta bes.


All eight are Bertha's off spring, one way or another.

Two years ago this February we started with five Nannies.  Sammie gave us Little Grey last year.  We lost 2 Nannies in childbirth and gave away two bottle billies.  Now we have a herd of 20, soon to be 12.

Kelly says the goats sell late in the day, and I would like to stay and see them sell, so we are going to wait about an hour to take them over.
