Well, Well, Well!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: I don't have to say much more do I? Mrs. H said to tell you two, you have cute kids, and not the miracle goats being raised by a single father either! Justin, If you'd like I could come and shoot coyotes for you so that old rifle wouldnt be in your way in the tractor. :wink:

no, you don't have to say much at all. i was worried you were going to say much more. :? thanks for taking it easy on me, i promise to return the favor. :lol: :lol:

Great pics. I saw goats, but I saw happy kids and no buck brush, so those are pretty reasonable tradeoffs :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maybe he has been in the business longer but at this point he is just an owner. You are a breeder now with the new family of goats. :wink:

Well you might just be onto something there chappie. There are more guys around here going to sheep and goats all the time. We are about 2 hours from Toronto, 1 hr. from Kitchener/Waterloo and a few other small cities and the ethnic population of those places is demanding more of those other meats and less beef all the time.

I know of one farmer nearby who makes tons more money from his 50 ewes than he does from feeding a few hundred steers. Lambs sold for over $3/lb. recently.

What does that tell us about changing markets? And I don't think that this is peculiar to Eastern Canada.

Oh and guess what else - they don't want pork . . .

A couple Sandhill ranchers always kept goats with their cows in the calving lot. They claimed that having them kept the calves from getting scours. I couldn't figure any connection and one day asked Joe what the reasoning was behind his theory. His reply: "No self respecting germ can stand the smell of a goat."
