Whiskey and goats

This is funny to me, we bought a Nigerian Dwarf goat to keep our New company so he would not be the lone male. Tammy who we bought our other Nigerian's from sold him to us. She had already named him and his name is.... Evan Williams. Yes Evan Williams, my husband said so now we have a goat named after some whiskey! I told him I did not know that! LOL! Oh, well, he knows his name and we just usually call him Evan anyway. Evan Williams is a mouth full :-)) Evan is quite nice and friendly too. Such a sweet heart, he is also small for being just about a year old or so. He is not much over 21 inches I think. Quite short, poor guy, he will sit in my lap or just let me hold him like a lap dog :-))) So precious!!!!!!

Goat Jumper

We have a Nigerian Dwarf Goat that will jump literally on my back, if I kneel down to pet the smaller goats. Which is quite fun, not really! It really hurts :-(
Her name is Olivia and she is quite loving, but I am not sure why she does it. Does she want attention or is she jealous? Hmmm! Who knows what is going on in her mind.

I do know that I love the goats we have. We made some good choices on the goats we have.

We have also added some LaMancha's. They are really sweet too, we bought a nanny and a buck. I asked Riley what he thought about a name for the female. He was not sure, so I asked him about some characters from the cartoon PowerPuff Girls. He named them and we decided 'Buttercup' would be good for the nanny. She does have a coloring toffee so it goes good. Now the buck is quite a character, no pun intended. When I saw him I just fell in love with him. He has a nice little hair do on top of his head. So my husband came up with Cosmo Kramer from Seinfeld! So funny :-)) LOL! Love it!
