Yes, it helps a lot. Thank you. There have been some new developments with the garage cleaning. & I got to go before DH wonders where I am. I'll keep you posted.

*UPDATE*

Yesterday when DH and I went to the garage to clean and set it up for the goats, he stood there looking at all the car parts, heavy ones, and said, "Honestly hun, this is going to take way more than you think. Not to mention, I don't think this is big enough for goats." My heart sank. "SO what are you saying?" "Go grab your coat and the keys." Next thing I know we are driving to Town Hall. The man pulled a permit for a BARN!!! Yesterday we worked till we couldn't see, woke up early this morning and got to work. (I just needed a break.) He swears it will be done by tomorrow morning.

I'LL HAVE A BARN!!!!!

I need a nap.

Awesome! I'm so happy for you! We have just a converted shed thangy but I'd love a real barn.

We are dying to see pictures when it is all complete!

In taking a lunch break. Who knew a barn could go up so fast. I hope I am not too tired to reward hubby for being such an awesome guy. (Even if he secretly didn't want to give up his garage.)

Back to work I go.

HELP!!!!

I have one goat with loose stool. I made a electrolyte solution from my goat book. What else do I do??


By the way. I got 2 alpine/Nubian crosses. AND 2 Jacob sheep, prego. That was DH's BIG surprise.

How do I know when the goats are milked out completely??

1. if it were me - nothing yet. you just brought her home, right? she's probably worked up because of all the changes. were you able to bring some of her feed from the previous owners? or is she eating something new?

2. when you cant get anymore milk out. give her a second to stand there and then try givin' the squeeze.... when she's done she's done

pix?
