Wordless Wednesday.

Did I mention I dislike Guineas less than chickens,they think they sing good,they don't.

Hay,lots of Hay!!!!

Well the other day,not THAT other day,we don't talk about that. ANYWAY...............Back to HAY!! O.K. "Da Boy" and his "Billy" went to get 30 bales of HAY!!!! It was like a early Christmas present.As you can see I am VERY happy.I am already warming up for when "Da Boy" gives it to me. Sweet Pea doesn't need any more hay. Her babies have made her so "not fat"(she gets mad when you say that),that "Da Boy" had to put her in my house because she couldn't fit in her door(I normally would be VERY upset,but I am a gentle buck and well let her have my house,on account of her being pregnant and all). And to end it a close up of me,in all my ''GOATIE AWESOMENESS''!! Tomorrow-The guineas will NOT STOP "SINGING"!!

Goatie Christmas Card From "The Herd"!!!!

Nibbles on the run!!

O.K. Remember yesterday when I said that Sissy was escaping,well she succeeded. It all started when "Da Boy" took her for a walk,
see he take us goats out for walks,so we can go visit the sheep and explore the cow pen,and it was Sissy's turn. I don't like to go on walks,I am quite content to stay in my pen and eat hay,but Sissy couldn't even stay still for hay.Here is "Da Boy" giving her some goat treats. She walked fine,she went to the sheep pen,to visit the cows,but then she decided she had walked far enough,and wanted to back to the goat pen and eat some hay,and didn't want to wait on "Da Boy". After playing "ring-around-the-chicken-yard" "Da Boy" finally caught her. So tomorrow it will be Doodahs turn to go out,and no goatie knows what might happen then!!!

Goaties roastng on a open fire(Not like THAT(well kinda)

When it gets cold always think of when I was little(BEFORE Sissy came),and I lived inside. I was a little buck then,and I barely had button horns. I had a box of alfalfa,a blanket to keep me warm,and I had a bottle. I remember the first time I went out side,the first leaf. It was all good till Sissy came along,and the incident(i.e.Sissy climbed the lamp and put a goat size dent in the end-table). As you know we goats like heat,well I would stand so close to the fire that my eyelashes singed off. "Da Boy" had to keep pushing me away from the fire place.Altough I am glad to have Sissy,she shares her hay,and warms up my house for me and-HEY SISSY STOP THAT!!! She is trying to escape as I speak.!!! I have to go stop her. BYE!!

I'm ready for Santa-Goat to come,are YOU(I've been a very good goatie this year)?

Pretty in pink(not me!!!)

First off,I am not the one in pink,real bucks don't do pink,and secondly, I am giving the spot light over to Sweet Pea because this post is all about her. To start this post, "Da Boy" and Grandnana think all of us goats should have collars. But not just any old goat on the farm,no....Only a "Goatie Goat" can have a collar(and by the way,a "Goatie Goat" s a goat that loves the people,and is a part of the herd,not just "a goat") Why you ask? I frankly have no idea,it must be a human thing. But on top of that,it can't be any old collar,it has to look good on the goat it belongs to. For example it took them 2 weeks to find a good color for Doodah,which was orange. Now after MUCH searching, the people have found a color for Sweet Pea. It is,drum roll please... Pink!!! Not hot pink,just pink,and with poke-a-dots. It think is is a perfect fit. She certainly likes it(she won't stop talking about it)!! Speaking of Sweet Pea,she s getting big(this picture doesn't show it that well),"Da Boy" thinks she could have her babies any day now. And so I give you a post about Sweet Pea!

Goat-Fu-Fighting!!! part DUEX(thats Chiness,I know that,I am a smart goat)

WHEN you left off I had won round one and Mr.T was playing dirty. Now the continuation. I give him another good butt to the stomach. Then he gives me a less-than-dignified left horn to the chin!! Now we have a intermission break with nibbles.Now back to the action!! He tried to flip me!! That's another illegal move!! But wait, Mr.T is leaving the arena!!!!! What could possibly made him do such a thing? HAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Da Boy" has brought HAY!!! And just like that we are eating "like" friends .

Goat-Fu-Fighting!!! part 1

Well it is cooling off in Texas this time of year(120* in the summer 38* in the winter), so we goats are happy. Happy? Happy you say. Well we Pygmy's and Nigerian dwarfs are desert goats,we grow a big thick coat in winter,so we can tolerate winter. Now on to the happy part,you see when winter comes around,"Da Boy",on top of giving us more hay,gives us more grain. So after eating our beloved grain, me and Mr.T decided to have a very bucky game of take the house. Here you see we are sizing each other up,then we lock horns!!! I butt him in his stomach. Here I almost have him off of the house. AHA!!!! At last He is off my hous-WAIT!!! What is this he comes around for round two!!! He tripped me!!! That is an illegal move!! Were's the reff!!!! Tomorrow,who will win control of the house? Will Mr.T continue to fight dirty? Tune in tomorrow to find out!!

BAAAAAAAAAAAAD Goat bad goat,watch'ya gonna do,watch'ya gonna do when "Da Boy" comes for YOU!!! No eating the chair!!!

Hay.

Well It quit raining(thank goodness). "Da Boy" has decided to give us more hay to get.....uh(NOT FAT)for the winter. Here is Doodah sneak-grazing(maybe she just feel asleep).
See the whole point to sneak-grazing is to hide from the other goats so they wont steal you hay. Sweet Pea is taking it a little TOO seriously(is cameo necessary). See she is watching out of the corner of her eye even as she eats(Goat-Note,where did the saying "out of the corner of you eye"come from). It is cold(for Texas). It is 50* and the turkeys are happy. They run around fluffy,and gobble at the people as soon as they come out("Da Boy"has been trying to get a video of them gobbling but they refuse to do it on film).Time for a turkey close up. It is still wet from the rain. I refuse to get out out(even for a picture) and get my hoofs wet. So instead,a Big Goatie Good Bye!!!

Rain

Well......rain. Not the 2 hour 3 inch it's over rain. But the long all day 1 inch rain. Couldn't we just get it over with. Well it has rained,and since I don't leave the goat house when it rains,I will tell you about yesterday. Well it was good. "Da Boy" replaced the lock on mine and Sissy's goat house,she was VERY upset about that,she stomped "Da Boy's" foot(she doesn't get that if she gets out at night,the coyotes would get her!).I told her that if she would just stop butting it till it burst open he would not have to replace it ,well as it turns out,the new lock was not goat proof ether. The u thing the carabinger thing goes on broke off(with Sissy's help). Then "Da Boy" cleaned out the all the goat houses. We were VERY EXCITED about that. See he shovels all the old hay in to the wheel barrel,and puts fresh soft tasty hay in it place. But Mr. T wasn't content with the new hay,he had to make sure there was no tasty hay left in the barrel. He tipped it over and caused "Da Boy" more trouble to scoop it back up(I would never do that). So in the end it was a good day.
