It was time to round up the goats to sell today. E was home yesterday and helped J round them up, so there wasn't much walking today. J said he walked for 2 hours straight yesterday getting them all together.
But the work wasn't over with.
J had to catch the nannies one at a time to separate them out.
The kids that were left looked pretty good, but they didn't weigh good again. Same as last year averaging 43 pounds. I think the worm issues this summer really took a toll.
We only kept back one bottle goat and one really big doeling that I thought was a nanny. So that will make 68 head plus the billy. Now we just have to wait until April to start all over again.
That is a lot of walking. Glad you had some help.
