Awesome looking buck you got there Dave!! Not sure if I would give my thousand dollar buck cardboard for dinner though, I guess it is just roughage. I like randy man and most of the other ones Charlie came up with lol. Sure is tall and long!!! Wow.

Thanks Michael! Ya the card board is not so great but head and tails better then the gravel he is so fund of chewing on! Or the gum ball sized river rock! Talk about terrible twos are already... He is living inside for now until some more babies show up and he can have some friends out in the barn. Last night I had to sleep on the couch, him in a big dog create with the door open pulled up to the couch so he couldnt get out but could still get up and inspect my face. Something wrong about getting woken up at 4am by a baby goat nibbling on your nose. Thats ok. Only a couple more nights and he will have pen mates.

Just think how bonded your little guy is going to be by sleeping next to you. And baby goat nibbles - they're wonderful any time of the day or night!
You could name him Rhett after Rhett Butler.

Still no new babies yet to give him a friend... Have a feeling by the time there are he is going to have forgotten he is a goat.

LOL sorry, still havent gotten out the good camera but do have a couple of pics of him chillin.
Today was a rough day for him. He wanted to check out what Prince the Min Pin was doing (chewing on a new bone) and got a quick but thankfully not to nasty a bite to the nose. First time Prince has done that and just goes to show you can never really trust a dog. If I woulda been the only one home, that dog would of most likely ended up in the trash can. But his nose doesnt look to bad. Just a couple of scraps and 2 minor punctures. Cleaned it up and will watch it for infection over the next week.

Aw, he's so adorable! I love those ears. No doubt he'll grow into them before long, but I love how big they look right now. I hope his nose heals up without incident. I guess we're all getting our fair share of naughty dogs lately!

True dat. A fellow breeder had a dog attack a few weeks ago in which one of the does she bought from us had its throat torn out. Turns out it was her own dog...
