Re: Life goes on
What breed? I was going to say Capramixta, but i will try to be serious for a min.
They are 1/4 Toggenburg, with some Alpine Nubian and Saanen. Really good milkers, thats been my goal in breeding, actual breed or colours dont really matter to me.
And Kenya, Enrique is the more white one with the spot, slightly bigger.

Re: Life goes on
And yes the circle of life goes with or without the covid.
My cat Kiwi has been acting funny for a while, then started to lose weight and not really eat very well. Took him to the vet this morning, cancer, through the gut and pancreas. They could give me pain killers to help make him comfortable. I declined and took him home. Not himself, but does not seem in distress. When that changes, I have a nasty job to do. And like I have said on here before, I will do it myself. I will do it right and he wont know its coming. Horrible job, but such is life, and the promise I have made to my animals. I will put him out next to the bones of a couple goats and a horse. The recycling of life will continue.

Re: Life goes on
Enrique and Paulette are now gone to their new homes. Paulette went to Paul who owned her daddy. And Enrique, I found a place for him where his new best buddy is a min mare and a couple of pot bellied pigs. Cleo their mom is in mourning, and I am too sort of, but it is the way the plan was made. And Cleo, I milked her the first time tonight with no babies on her all day and over two litres of milk, I guess I will be making lots of cheese.
