Maybe it's time to get Greek yogurt. Even the vanilla is kinda bitter

I get goat yogurt, it is tangy

My goats won't let me touch, much less milk. No offense to Greek yogurt lovers, but I'm always reminded of chalk. Can't explain.

I started eating it due to a misunderstanding, continued because of the protein

Thanks for reminding me I got milk to make yogurt! On the stove right now.

I can see that similarity. I definitely don't care for it plain. I sweeten mine with honey. Or overly sweet jam. It's about the consistency of ice cream, and has gotten me away from craving Hagen Daaz Chocolate Peanut Butter ice cream with caramel sauce. (Chocolate and peanut butter are best friends in my house, and they both LOVE caramel.)

Can you train them from kidhood? Seems a shame to miss out on the milk.

Is there a danger of mastitis?

Went out tractor shopping today. Not buying yet, just shopping. Looked at, and sat in, the L2502, BX2380 and BX2680. Yes, I was at the Kubota store. Need to sit in some Deere, and maybe some others.

 

[Sally PB]

A neighbor had a Kubota, not sure what model. He sure could do a lot with it.

Our plow can still push more snow, though. Not that you need that function.

 

[Sally PB]

It doesn't turn the garden or mow the field. but dang! it can push our heavy wet snow!

Sorry, couldn't resist. Ratrod plow.

Spent the day repairing the fence. Not done yet. But should be done before bed time. Waiting on fast set conrete to cure before I hang the gate. Will hammer up the livestock fencing and re tension the electric fence wires tommorow.

What happened to your fence?

 

[U_Stormcrow]

Termites. or ants. or dry rot.

All of the above?

Had to replace the 8' dia round end post. Now using a pair of pt 4x4's tied together w 2x6s, and 200# of concrete. The fence it supports is only 350' long, should be sufficient.
