Weigh Day for the future Ben Lomond packers.

[Nanno]

I'm tempted to take all my goats down to our local vet to be weighed this fall on the big scale, just for the sake of curiosity. Weight tapes are great to gauge growth, but I'm not confident in the accuracy. It seems to make goats out to be heavier than they are (it said Finn was 35 lbs., which was why I got out the bathroom scale). It also says Pac-Man is 165 lbs. at 15 months and there's no way he's that big already. He's a chunk for sure, but he's not a monster. (Not yet anyway.) My weight tape measures Cuzco at waaaay past the 195 lb. mark when I know he's weighed around 200 lbs. for the last nine years. I'd like to get accurate weights on all my goats then measure them with the tape and write the results on the tape in red pen for future reference, or maybe make my own weight tape chart.
