March had her buckling late yesterday afternoon. So we are calling him Boudan to go along with the Cajun Creole theme. He has blue eyes like his mum but, his eyes will change to high yellow gold in about a month. He is large and sassy already. As a matter of fact all our kids this year are larger. Guess they will all be huge bucks and large doe.
24 hr Kid Count: 1 Doeling Lady Walver, 3 Bucklings Roux, Bercer, and Boudan.
We have to stop at Tractor Supply today and pick up banding pliers for castration. Only Boudan will remain intact. That way if the decision is made to sell them as meat goats; they will be a viable source of income.
We planted over 25 varieties of seeds to include at least two types of: beans, melons, and of course tomatoes.
Cubby even took some seeds and planted them in a secret boy place. Last year when he did that; we wound up with some suprise maze.
Don't forget to play in your slices of heaven, today!

Congratulations on your newest members at Cow and Chicken Town! Boudan is really a sweet looking little guy!

we don't have meat goats, just dairy goats. I was curious if you ate goat meat, if so, how you prepared it.
He's a cutie all right! I KNOW you just 'drop' a word here and there to get us 'city slickers' all crazy! Like what were they? gonad pliers!!!!lol

Thanks Barb, I think so too. He will not be wethered.
Thanks Sharon, He is a 'big' little feller. LOL
Janet, Couldn't ya just kiss those fuzzy lips?
Joanna, I will put goat me in the crock pot and slow cook it. I haven't had kid in a long time though and will have to consult a game cookbook for the right seasonings.
Jim, How about this?

Waves to Kat! What is happening my over the pond sister?
Boudan is so cute and so HUGE! Well, huge compared to my tiny little kids!
Thanks for stopping by my blog today. From what I understand the African goats (including Nigerian, Pygmy, & Boer) taste better than other types of goat. I don't know that, it is just what I *think* I have read someplace...
Super cute! I am dying to know what the secret boy place is?
I love your kids' names this year - 'specially Boudan! They are so cute!
Thanks Linda, All of the kids this year are large. Roux is the smallest of the four.
Melissa, If he told mom where his secret boy place is; I guess I would not get the surprise later. LOL
Vicky, Boudan is a pistol.
