I've been looking all over the Internet, I've become a little obsessed with it, haha. I'm finally to the point where I've accepted I'll have to wait and see

call the store and ask which hatchery they got the chicks from

You could ask @BantamFan4Life she is really nice, and may have a good guess.

The laundry, or the butchering?

The laundry, because it NEVER STOPS. ever. 


The butchering, because it's messy. and i'm OCD about touching icky stuff. And blood and guts falls under icky stuff.

I will end up washing my hands like 50000x.

The boys got to go out with the does for a while tonight because I was off early. They got to play on the goat toy for the first time. It was a joy to watch.

I wish our kids were alive, but they were born two early... They were born early january, and were about a week early. (They were so cute...)

You almost caused me an hurt attack! I really thought you are talking about HUMAN KIDS!! I NEVER refer to animals as my kids as I don't refer to them as my parents. .....

You almost caused me an hurt attack! I really thought you are talking about HUMAN KIDS!!
I NEVER refer to animals as my kids as I don't refer to them as my parents. .....

The term kids is the correct one for baby goats unless you are addressing them as a buckling or doeling.
