So we (Scott) decided it would be a great idea to get a dairy goat so we could all drink it, be healthier, save trips to the store for milk, etc. So he looked and looked and found one on Craig’s list. We put the carrier in the back of the Commander and off we all went to check it out. Well, she looked cute, seemed healthy, but wasn’t horribly tame. After the people spent about 10 minutes trying to catch her (which should have been a sign) we got her loaded up and took her home. Jacques seems to like his new girlfriend a lot. It’s kind of cute actually. head butts her occasionally just to make sure she knows he is boss, but other than that, they get along great. Her name is Isabelle but we call her Izzy sometimes, especially when we yell at her when she gets loose. Thankfully she stays on our property. I think she thinks it’s a game…Anyway, she isn't producing yet. First we need to tame her. Then we'll breed her and I'll get to try my luck at delivering goat kids. I'm pretty good at delivering human babies. It can't be that much different, can it?
