Hello All
I will have to add another critter to the Truck Chasing Goat thread.
Besides Fuzzy, Pete and Sam.
I got another one of Fuzzys Bro's today.
Same source ,Clean Farm, and a bottle baby. within a week or so of same age. His other Bro's are going for meat tonight. Auction
Horned,still has his jewels as his 1/2 bro dose, 2 are just as easy to wether as one.
De-Horning by banding I still am not sure about. Researching that with friends at both UW Wisconsin and Cornell Vet Collage. NY
==========================================
No-name yet: Name Suggestions are appreciated. Like his 1/2 bro he is all white so I have matched pair.
I like my pistols they same way matched pair's
Fuzzy came with a name from owners GD. I have kept the name Fuzzy.
I know with my horse foals I would wait to see the disposition and most all would "Name themselves" for barn names.
One Name I have in mind is Wazey(sp) as in Fuzzy, Wazey. I know bad play on words.
Can you imagine me yelling in the woods/on trail Fuzzy/ Wazey come in? I would get fitted for a strait jacket fast.
================================
Nanno Sorry to hear about your problems with Pluto
I think you did the right thing with painting him.
Hope you can work things out, One of the challenges of getting a new young dog on the farm.
==============================
Enjoy the pictures of my carbon copy goat boys.
BTY: I have had to color up the new boy's horn's with a red marker so I can keep the two separate. It is not blood.
Talk about a Matched Team !!!!!!!! Both the same age/color, configuration and friendly. If I want color I can paint them.
It will be a few years before I work them, In the mean time they have a job to do eating brush and being Ambassadors for Pack Goats.
Enjoy the pictures.

He will learn the same way Fuzzy,Pete and Sam did to stay close to Camp and respect a rope when tied out.
He already has his "Farm Colors " Collar on and has not fought the restraint of it.
He is "Sharing" the Goat Tote with Fuzzy at night because both of them can slip through the front gate of the Red Neck Goat Shed. Fuzzy proved it the other day. In the middle of a thunder storm.
My Goat-o-Scope is set on the Goat Tote so I can see if there is a ruckus. But they were in the same herd together before I got Fuzzy. They should remember each other. (I hope)
He got his first CD-T shot today and handled that well. One stick and it was over with. I gave him 500# dose of Ivermectin so he is as clean as possible.
In a week-10 days I will know how good he is.
Happy Trails
Keep Goating
