We weaned Junies triplets. They are none too happy with us, but that is the way life goes. You must grow up and give that precious milk you've been hoarding to someone else. Someone who deserves it more. 161 hand milkings resulted in nothing for us but three perpetually hungry kids, yelling....no screaming at us through every milking. Selfish little things they are. The result has been three beautiful healthy HUGE goatlings. Hopefully as tasty as they are cute.
So that brings me to why I blogged. No reason really. As I sit in my chair paying for a day of rebelling yesterday, I will blog. My legs are punishing me for it, but I just couldn't take it any longer. I had to get up and get out.
We had goat milk this morning. Junies raw freshly milked milk. MMmmmmm....yummy. I heard cheers of joy as I ordered our big 25lb box-o-granola from Azure. Our favorite lunch is a big glass of goat yogurt with 1/2 C of granola mixed in. The kids go nuts over it and it is so filling.
BTW, Chloe never kidded. We had that cute little ticker that said she was due mid May. Paul and I joked about how BIG she was, but alas, we knew she never took. We bred her three weeks after bringing her to our home so I am sure that is the reason right there. She hadn't adjusted to her new life, hadn't' been fed ideally and we should not have expected her to become pregnant. Oh well, next year.
