Goats-our newest family members!







Addie and Violet wanted to get goats to show in 4-H and just to have for pets. We have a friend who is a vet surgeon and had some for sale. They are Nigerian Dwarf goats. The mother's name is Blue Bonnet and we call her Mama B (after my friend Jill!) and the baby is named Buttercup and we call her Babybutter! If you were ever pondering owning a goat, I say DO IT! They are fascinating and very cute and fun. They just eat dairy goat feed and hay/alfalfa. They like treats like animal crackers, fresh herbs, corn, oats and molasses.
