This is definitely NOT a "glamour shot," but it is Cuzco's so I'll post it. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a bucket-o-hair.
I brushed Cuzco for about ten minutes yesterday and in that short time managed to half fill this two gallon bucket. Cuzco's coat has never been this luxurious and dandruff-free. I think it's the oil I've added to his diet. I did it to help keep weight on him through the winter, but it's done wonders for his skin and coat. I started out with vegetable oil, but that stuff makes a horrific mess of everything. So I switched to black oil sunflower seeds around Christmas. Not only are they not messy, but Cuzco goes nuts over them. The other goats took a month or so to warm up, but now everyone loves their sunflower seeds in the morning.
In other news, Lilly is starting to show.
