All good with the goats...
Things with the goats are all on a fairly even keel at the moment. Sorrel and Coriander are slowly putting on weight and their coats are getting silkier and shinier. Their poo continues to vary a lot but unless they show signs of being ill, we aren’t going to worry undely. We will do another worm count at some stage especially as the weather is so wet but their access to garss is now limited due to the rain so in theory worm counts should be low...
We need to firm up our plans for breeding, our current thoughts are just to breed from Garlic and maybe Onion but definitely not Sorrel and Coriander. We also wonder if we should sell Cashew and Peanut next year. They were supposed to have been sold to a guy from Dartmoor but after the first visit to us, we never heard from him again. We are of course rather fond of them now... Do we need nine goats? Two of them whethers??? Of course!!!! |
