[QUOTE="Keren, post: 549751, member: 3195"] Well, she's here a little earlier than expected. I was having headaches with organising the transport guy, so I drove up myself and got her yesterday. I'm glad I did too, even if I cant get her to breed. The current owner wasnt exactly treating her real well. She was tethered - lost a lot of hair and has lumps on her neck, no shelter, and expected to live off weeds. She is really thin as a result. Her feet were neglected and in desperate need of a trim - although it is going to take me months to get them back to normal because the blood supply has grown into the overgrown hoof. Her registered name is Glendowen Madeline, and she's a 98 model. Took some 'before' photos so I can compare in a month's time after some good feed. Not the best photos, sorry, took them at the wrong time of day.

You can sort of see it but its not as clear as I would like. We have a BCS scale from 1 - 5 with 1 being emaciated and 5 being obese, and I would class her as 1.2 [img]http://www.ranchers.net/photopost/data/500/medium/9-05-08_Goats_169.JPG[/img] [/QUOTE]
