Spinandslide -- Back in the early days of pygmy goat ownership (former life), my mentor, who had 30+ head of PG's and kept a baby monitor running from barn to house 24/7, told me that she could recognize the voices of all her goats. I thought, "Yeah, sure you can!!" A couple years later, with 20 in my barn, I could too!! :roll:
Iowa52 -- Our 2 youngest grandkids named Freckles, and won a trip to Dairy Queen with the winning selection. My husband's mother died a few weeks ago. When one of our cows was due last spring, she pestered us about what we were going to name the expected calf. I finally just told her that no matter what, bull or heifer, we'd name it after her. That yearling heifer is Margie. Bless your :heart: , Marge!
SusieQ -- Love that story! Obviously, that guy never kept a cow over a year -- or he had to keep track of numbers of notches per cow. :bang:
VanC -- I keep supplies of hard-butt, BS, and WTF repellants on hand in sz. large. Need them now and then.
