My hubby found a piece of property across from his aunt and uncles farm, 96 acres and was really excited. I checked it out and it was $3 million dollars. I mean I could have all the goats I wanted, but $3 million????

So that got me to looking and I found a beautiful log cabin on 10 acres not very far from where we are that has a barn and some fencing. It would be perfect. I think we are going to put our house up for sale in the fall so we can move to more land. Right now we have 2 acres and I could only have a few small goat, but 10 - 20 acres, look out here I come. Goats, more chickens, turkeys, goats, geese, ducks, more goats and chickens.

Good luck with Debbie OFG, I hope she waits until at least Sunday when this cold snap is supposed to be over.

Good luck OFG!!! Now as soon as that 4H kid helps you once I expect you'll never need help again - placentas and all - is that right?

sekinkead- THREE MILLION DOLLARS! dang! i'd have thought you could buy the whole state of ohio for $3M! yikes!

So as long as what comes out doesn't move, eh? I see where you're going!

I can attest to that.....OFG is right in the splash zone on butchering day, slashing and cussin', while I'd far rather be up to my elbow in a contracting goat uterus....

 

[glenolam]

Guess I'm the middle man....I don't mind doing either! Course, never had the chance to elbow up a uterus yet. Our cow #3 had issues calving last year and when a farmer friend was "palpatating" up to his shoulders it took all I had to keep myself from pulling him outa there so I could dive right in!

Practice makes perfect I say!

Now...working on humans....no way. My mother's a nurse and she tried to get me into nursing. Something about oosing stuff on human skin and blood drawing on things that can speak your language rub me the wrong way. On people, I can handle minor cuts, scrapes and pimples, but other than that - it's time for a visit to good ol mom.
