Hay There!

I have been greatly enjoying the generosity of some fellow goat keepers!  They gave me access to a free hay source.  I was able to load up the truck and get enough hay to last the summer (hopefully)!  It is such a blessing to have others share their resources with me!

I have a new hay feeder for the new hay source.  This feeder holds a WHOLE bale of hay.  I was having to refill the hay every day or so with the other feeder which made for a lot of work!  This new feeder (designed and constructed by my brother) makes chores much easier and the goats like it too!


Now, for a few random goat pictures:

Edna...she seems to miss Fritz quite a bit.  I hadn't started weaning Fritz, so she found it quite a shock when he left the goat pen and never came back.  She most misses him after milking time when she makes a sad, low goat cry!

Charlotte's udder!  I am milking only once a day, and she milks about 3/4 gallon.

This picture accidentally got uploaded with this group of photos and I thought I would post it anyway!  This was sometime last spring.  It is amazing how much Elly May and Edna have grown!
