Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

Lisa, are you recuperated from the GKs ?

 

[miss heny]

does the pink and blue collar not have ears ?  Why is that ? you dont cut them off do you ?  They are bigger then I thought they would be. 

all of them are earless, it the breed special trait haha. The bigger ones are a day younger then the two more colorful ones. I assure you it a genetic mutation on the years, Lamanchas are the only breed with this trait and the only American breed recognized by the Dairy goat association. Their minimal size is 130 but I have a doe at 160 and a buck almost 200.

I never realized they could get so big. Wonder if that was breed into them or a natural occurrence. Oh, du.. you say genetic . I guess Im not sure what that means.

I have wanted a couple fainting goats or pygmy forever. Its probably a good thing my place isnt fenced. I already have too much to do. I thought I could toss my lawn mower if I had them.

ahaha yea I show em too so my arm got some strength since they are strong

the mutation popped up in the 1960-70s and was bred for, the breed was recognize in 1980s and has had a small but loyal following. Their personality is very cat like so you either love them or hate them. We are one of the few farms in MS that just focus on Lamanchas and the only 4H family with a living two time state champion everyone gets annoyed by use because our lamanchas been praised by judges all over the US on how "tire to the breed" they look

he was willing to take the motrin. LOL  Dr didnt say infection. I must of took him a day too early . 

Probably, if he has fever you can bet they are infected now.

I guess this a quick Hi & goodbye lol. Looks like it's going to rain so I had better go get my chores done before it does. Granny tell Robert to fill up your big tub & soak, but not to get his head wet. That will help with his achy body feeling big time.

Jace, wishing it was summer

Abi, Welsummer OE



Left to right: RSL; Lucky, spangled OEGB, Mystery, EE; and Emma, EE.


Lucky... I plan on breeding him to Jace in spring.




Jazzy, EE x sultan. You'd never guess she was one of the sweetest birds in the flock, eh?


Emma, EE. Her eighth birthday is coming up soon.


Topaz, giving me the royal stink eye.


Bad pic, but it shows Bella's colouring well. She is fast becoming one of the prettiest birds in the flock, and very healthy too. She is a mutt, not sure what breeds went into the mix other than sultan a few generations back.

Guess what!


Enya, CLB pullet. After the hawk attack she got hit hard by MG again.
