Ya haven't posted how the kids' goat farming endeavor is progressing lately. Pa didn't harm them in a fit of containment stress did he? :D

Thanks for bringing up a sore subject! I am looking for a dang billy to breed the two gals we have. The plan is to wean the young goats as quick as we can and put a holstien on each of them. Trouble is i should'a got em' bred a month or so ago. And this isn't exactly goat mecca when it comes to finding a billy. So to make a short story loooooooonger, we may sell two yearling female goats to somebody dumber than me (could take awhile) and invest the windfall in ostrichs or emus or split tailed woolly weasels! :roll: Or we may just skip that phase and go straight into a goatless bank account for each child with a lesson learned about frivolous and silly sidelines to cows! :wink:

Justin, H will come get him just to be on the horse killin', goat capturin' adventure! :lol: Don't forget to tie hard and fast!!!



On the other hand, H could just bring the prospective brides and pick them up when the kids are ready for the barbeque. :wink:

after some serious consideration, i think i would rather meet H in Miles City with the billy. and catchin' this little wild bastard i have would be an adventure to say the least. i got him in jail now, i'm afraid if i let him out it will be the last time i see him.......wait a minute, now there is an idea :wink:

I know that there aren't any guarantees in life, but I guarantee i will never AI a goat! :shock: As for Justin wanting me to become a goat whisperer..... more like a cussing under my breath and a lot over it too. How about I ship two young nanny goats east to procreate with your devil goat and you can have a herd of free range goats to supplement the ranches income? Maybe you could guide hunts for wild goats or bring bunches of dudes out for a goat round up! I'll pay shipping so holler if ya want them! :wink:

Haymaker is the goat king of Boerne Texas he could probably help you out. :lol: :lol: :lol:


That's right. Justin and H could ship their little "misconceptions of easy income" to Texas. Freight COD of course. :wink:

Haymaker's neighbors might not know which old goat they came to visit. :p :lol:

Anyone remember the TV show "Lorne Greene's New Wilderness"? Was my favorite as a kid. I remember him going to the Galapagos Islands and saying that the islands were in trouble because trader ships from decades past had left behind pigs and goats that were eating everything, including sea turtle and iguana eggs. He said it was amazing that they had survived the conditions and if anything could, it was a pig or a goat.

With a few more years experience under my belt I can honestly say I agree with him. However, I can also honestly say that a goat in my books falls under the category of "Crime Against Nature". What other barnyard beast could live off of twine, vinyl siding, laundry from the clothesline, maybe some forage, and still provide meat and milk? There's something wrong with that picture.

haul him to the nearest wal - mart and when the mrs is inside buying you some candy, slip the door on the trailer open.

Start contracting HS rodeos I think they get $5 a flip-pretty good coin there's no shoretage of nanny flippers.


Yes, but they have to be the same weight... And if a goatroper thinks they are not... Then there will be meetings and lots of pouting cuz she just knows that her goat she tied was fatter than the other....
Been there done that!!!!

I shouldn't post this but I watched a couple of purebred goat sales on DV Auction and saw a billy and his full sister bring 20000 and 16000. The worst goat to sell that day was 2500.
