From Dairy Goat to Pet Goat



We have another little goat here at the farm.  One that didn't come from our farm's own kidding season, but a neighboring farm's.  Little Lucy is a half nubian half nigerian dwarf imp of a goat.  She is 3 weeks old and has me excited to have another possibly good dairy goat on the farm. Although my mother in law is more excited to breed her with a mini nubian and get little mini nubian babies.  She is big on pets.  I am not.  We agree to not see eye to eye on the benefits of useless animals and thus get along great regarding it.   


She really is quite cute with those little helicopter ears and those colors.  The first time I saw her I thought she would make a great addition to our little farm.  She is currently sleeping in the house, but getting acquainted with the herd during the day.  I cannot wait to see her and Mattie play together in the coming days.
