They're Working the Cute Angle

Vixen is still trying to convince the human that Star has to stay on the farm with us forever.

She's doing a pretty good job working the cute angle. (Personally, I went with guilting the human into keep Joe.)

Feisty!

Some goats are feeling a bit feisty with the nicer weather.

Not me.



I still prefer basking.

Put the Camera Down.

We're trying to eat!  Do you mind?

Me

Maggie

Star and Vixen

Dang human says we're always eating right now.

Bud

Myson and Bud

Minnie Pearl

Don't know why she'd say that.

Really?

So you think you're going to sell my little doe, Star, do you?

Star and Vixen

We'll see how that works out for you...

Snuzzles or Scratches

You decide.

Is Vixen snuzzling and loving her doe, Star, or is she just using her to scratch her face?

Vixen Thinks She's Dying

The human was horribly mean and weaned and took seven of our kids from the farm last weekend.  Vixen's boy,  Buck, was one of the big kids that left.

Now Vixen thinks she's dying.  She lays by her maa and won't leave her side.

What's worse, is the way she lays there just wailing about how horrible her udder feels.

It's really quite melodramatic.

All I have to say about that is, "Let your daughter nurse!"

 Really!  I'm sure Doe would appreciate not being weaned.

Linking to Rural Thursday.

Doe

I finally got my blog back from that silly Myson.

This is Vixen's little girl Doe.  She's awfully cute.

She looks cozy in that food pan, but something seems wrong here.  Where was the food pan?

On the bucket in front of the milking stanchion.

She's quite talented.

Here comes her maa.

She is checking to see if Doe was hiding some of that sweet feed in the pan.

Nope.

No sweet feed and no Doe.

An Epic Fight (The Finale)

After Vixen and Lotus fought all around the barnyard, the fight was taken into the barn.

By this time, Cutie was getting a bit tired of all this fighting too.

But Lotus was relentless. Vixen wasn't about to back down! (She inherited that from her maa.)

Everyone else was getting tired of this fighting too.

Guess who finally said, "That's enough!" after the fight went right through the middle of his pile of hay.

The llama. He might be cranky, but he knows that fighting isn't good during dinner time.

Finally, everyone settled down to eat, and everyone is getting along so well now. Everything is back to normal.

Except Cutie is still giving the human the goat stare of death for bringing Vixen to this side right during dinner time.

The Fight Continues

Well, I was telling you about the Epic Fight that started with Lotus challenging Vixen when she joined our side of the barnyard.

Cutie wasn't too happy with her little kid being picked on. That plucky little mini-goat just kept it up.

Vixen's big sister, Pam, decided she'd better join in. After all, family is family.

She came to her sister's aid, and Lotus didn't back down one little bit. Of course, Cutie kept a very close eye on both of her babies.

Pam suddenly remembered that she shouldn't be fighting because she's pregnant.

Not to mention she really needed to go eat.

Tomorrow~the conclusion.
