Looks like Dirty Rain is siring some sellable kids for J&J.  I have some Dirty Rain daughters that will kid later in the spring.  I’m looking forward to that.  I didn’t get many wether/buck kids out of him his first year but I loved the doe kids.  I never took a pic of Dirty Rain when he was younger as had an injury.  I sold 1/2 to J&J because I knew that they would get him mated right, have those kids presented excellent and then hopefully the  offspring will hit a lick.  So far, it looks like I was right.

Oh, yeah.  They also sold a Joe Dirt kid or two.  They can sell some goats.  Dirt got to do some traveling this past summer and fall.  He may be old but he is getting the chance to go out in style.  Several herds will be keeping Joe Dirt daughters.

Best in Show—the champion at the Westminster Dog Show was a German Shepard named Rumour.  He was named after the Rumour Has It song by Adele.  I like that name.  Just wish I still had the buck.  If you don’t want to lose a great one then don’t own livestock because it is going to happen.

County show is over.  Proficiency awards are headed to Stillwater today.  Plants come in for the greenhouse.  Shop projects getting done.  OYE online entries due this week.  Welding Rodeo on Friday.  Speeches getting memorized.  Some still need written.  Waiting on a couple of does to finally kid.  And we got 1/2 inch of rain.  Might have to drill some oats.  Hopefully the lights are working on the tractor.  Just a day in the life.

Good day!
