I’ve been trying to figure out what to breed which does to whatever buck. \u00a0I really don’t like kidding any in December, I refuse to kid in January and I guess that I will breed some to kid the first of February. \u00a0The rest–end of March to June. \u00a0Decisions. Decisions.<\/p>\n
One can’t sit inside and think today. \u00a0No, the weather is great here in paradise. \u00a0But the roofers are here and it is a bit loud around the house. \u00a0Roofers, window replacers and hail dent repair specialists have been booked solid since the end of May when that hailstorm shredded Fargo. \u00a0During college, I worked a few jobs stripping roofs and nailing shingles. \u00a0I learned real quick that was not a career that I wanted to pursue. \u00a0There is money to be made in that line of work and I respect those that do it. \u00a0But it isn’t for me.<\/p>\n
As the sun came up this morning, I sorted a few goats off that are going to get a free ride to the sale barn. \u00a0Namely, the dairy goats buck kids and a barren bitch that hasn’t bred in the past 3 years. \u00a0Time to punt. \u00a0Once, I had them sorted, a couple of does decided that they needed to pair off on opposite sides of a panel and just beat the living hell out of it. \u00a0For NO reason. \u00a0These does had literally just been together.<\/p>\n
If you were to put me on the pitching mound in Fenway Park, hand me a baseball and ask me to throw a strike, it probably wouldn’t happen. \u00a0But, if you put me in a corral, hand me a rock and ask me to drill a an object 60 feet away that is destroying a panel for no apparent reason\u2026.well, I turn into a cross between Greg Maddux and Roger Clemens. \u00a0Precision with heat. \u00a0STRIKE!!!!!<\/p>\n
I just got done soaking a wethers feet in buckets of epsom salt. \u00a0I don’t know if it will work, but it can’t hurt. \u00a0The stupid things that we do for a show animal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
