I got an update on Junior...apparently he head butted a 5 month old wether to death :( I don't mean to judge, but when you introduce a new goat to a herd you shouldn't leave them alone. They should be watched for several things, but especially to see if they all get along. If they don't, they should be seperated so these things don't happen. I don't understand why he would do this considering he was the quietest goat on our farm and never head butted or was aggressive. I feel badly that this happened...I hope the owners keep a better eye on the goats and seperate them if there are any more problems in the future!
The day after Junior left, his brother Jetti also went to his new home with an older gentlemen in Bethel, who wanted a companion for his pygmy wether goat. I goat a picture message of him the next day and he said he was doing well.
It's pretty quiet around Little Bit Farm...we're just waiting for the does to kid :)
That is so wierd!! Junior was a sweet and quiet goat. You never had a problem introducing him with Larry or Rm?? hmmmm? interesting.Hopefully it goes better for her in the future.
