We Bought Something that Rhymes with Oats

Guess what we picked up last weekend?

You'll never guess - not in a million years.

Well possibly in a million years, 

but it's not something you would guess 

right off the top of your head.

Hint:

This is what held what we bought.

If you guessed pygmy goats,

you guessed correctly.

We didn't have anything to transport the little guys,

so Todd found some odds-and-ends around the house

and went to work building this little cage to attach

to our little trailer.

Here's a close up.

Not bad for free!

We had to pick them up in Rocklin,

so it was quite a trek for them,

but they made it home unscathed.

Here they are mid trip.

Here's Domino and Biscotti.

The little brown one is Biscotti.

She likes to snort.

Here is Domino.

She just pretty much acts/looks like this all the time.

Here they are taking cover because it was raining 

when I took this picture.

This isn't our first time owning goats.

We actually owned quite a few years ago,

but they either died from old age, or we got rid of them.

We are wanting them to help clean up the property

and eat down the blackberries and weeds.

Two more are on their way,

but they are babies, so we have to wait a couple weeks.

So...have you ever owned goats?

What did you use them for?
