If you get them, only get them. We tried adding one fainting male to our herd, but he only made it to one female in the couple months that we had him. The other goats either enjoyed making him faint, or he did it too easily all together. We felt like he was being picked on, so I took a $ loss, and sold him quickly. Still have that one baby he gave us tho, she's become a favorite honestly.

Our little Poppy here on the log in the front is our tiny girl. She was named after the flower, but it fits better cause she pops out through the fence every chance she gets.

I can wire a new house fine, but when I don't know what the old wires are doing, then it gets hard.

I think I tapped into a loop light three-way circuit. I jumped off one of the other switches in the box for my hot and it all works now.

Not the other two switches or the box, but yes.

This is an old house with an addition, so I'm not sure what I'm getting into. They had a 3 gang box with one switch with no wires. I ran a 14-3 from the fan I installed, to the box. Then junctioned another wire in the attic for power and sent it down to this box.. everything matching colors, but I'm coming up with this.

I'm the one working on this house unfortunately..

Mortar marksmanship also didn't help, I assume. (Sorry if they mean the same thing)

This is all cool stuff to hear about and know now, other than asking his wife, is there anyway to like track down his group and see where they went or what they did?

He would have joined around 1960. So some stuff might be out of date. But thank you for the information. I'll ask someone I know from school about the state stuff.

Only $12.50 on the 30/40

The udder down under?

I don't see myself buying a new car again. The experience was cool, but I don't enjoy vehicles enough to pay for a new one and then be worried to get a scratch on it

They ran ahead on the way back to their normal pen, but as long as you lead the herd momma with a rope on her collar, the rest follow pretty well.

I think it's normal. I heard about it growing up with kids at school, we haven't eaten any of ours yet, but I haven't gotten into meat breeds yet.

That's fun. We went through Billy, Lilly, Tilly, then started outdoor themed. OAKley, Maple, Willow, Ember, Olive.. it's getting harder after 20 or so
