Fifteen from One


Betty asked if Bertha was really the mother of our herd.  Of the 20 goats we have, Big Sandy, Big White and Mama Gray did not descend from Bertha.  All fifteen of the kids that we have in our herd now have descended from Bertha because Black Billy is the sire of all the kids and he was Bertha's first kid born here in 2012.  That makes her Mama of 15 since May 2012.

Forgot to tell you that Erin brought my calendar and I like it. Will you post the photo that has grandma powell in it for a dinner. I would like to download it from your site and see it close up. If you remember anything about the day will you post that. Momma has on short sleeved dress so I wonder if it were winter...but poor Momma only usually had two dresses so it could be winter. Erin thought maybe it was Easter.
