Double the Kids Double the Fun

Before we went to Disneyland, we had decided that we were going to buy some goats, so that they would eat our blackberry bushes. Today is the day that we went to pick them up. Armand decided that we had to get three goat kids, one for each of our kids. Easy for him to say;) They are 7.5 weeks old, and still need to be bottle fed. We are in the process of weaning them. Anyway, we thought we could block them into a small area of the yard, but they are way smarter than we thought. Now they just roam around our yard and are not fenced in at all. They love to eat the dandelions, everyday they clear out the whole yard of them, and in the morning new ones have grown in and the goats clean them out again. Armand and I have named the big boys goats: Pibb and Pepper. Anderson's goat was given a name by himself, and that is: Doggie (of course).
