Portrait of a Mother and Daughter. This is an Angora goat we were "boarding" for a while for the owner, with her kid approximately six hours after birth.

cutegasim!

How many animals do you have?

There's us cows (well, Solly is a bull) and there's three hooves of us, one hoof of horses, a couple pens of hogs (prolly five hooves, but it seems like every time we look, there's fewer hogs there), and a lot of goats. There's goats all over the place. We don't have enough hooves to count them all.

That's not counting the wolves. There's two hooves of wolves. And we think three hooves of cats. But the cats we can just step on. No problem. Gotta pay attention to the wolves, though.

ooooh.... did you say ANGORA goat? Did you, perchance, shear her? If so, is any of the wool for sale?

'Twas TC's goat. Yes, I believe they sheared her once. Not sure what became of the wool.
