Met Metusela(sp?) and Charlotte. They were already named when we got them. Don't know about the name of the first one whether or not we will keep that name or not. So funny, I sold all my goats but 4 and then dried them up and hubby says that he wanted to have some goat milk. So what to do, what to do. So I found these two this morning and here they are. lol They are only a little over a year old and good milkers. They are almost double the size of my other one year old and the size of my 5 year olds. lol I read a book not long ago about how great goat milk is for you if you drink it as soon as you milk while it is still foaming. It was hard to do at first but then I got used to it. We are always trying to find ways to be healthier without alot of cost too.

We found out raw beets is another healthy food. We are finding out that they are really good in salads or just slicing them up and eating them. Suppose to lower blood pressure and other great benefits.

Ok, guess that is about all that's going on around here for now. Have a great day!

How fun! Great looking girls you have. After reading your Goat milk story and some of the things you farmers try... not sure if I could handle the farmlife. lol. I'd love to come stay though... at least for a while.

I'm with you on being healthy. My daughter is raising dairy goats and I get all the milk I want. :)
And your so right about beets - I try to eat them as often as I can.
Your picture is cute!

They are beautiful! Goats for milk are definitely on my "someday" list. Do you use the milk for baking and cooking as well? If so, can you taste it in the final product? I've wondered about that.

(P.S. I'd be right there with you thinking "You go cats!" in regard to the snake. LOL)

The goats are so cute. Of course, as soon as I get rid of something my kids or husband think that is exactly what we need. lol
