Went down to a friend’s house in Bishop yesterday, hiding from the masses.
Peanut by the pond hunting ducks & Wheeler keeping an eye on him.
Wheeler is the inspiration for naming my chuck “Wheeler Werx”
Chernobyl Slymer x Golden Goat
What I learned from getting pumpkins at Willowtree Farms over the years - goats love belly scratches as much as dogs do.
 
OK with the smell of horses and cows and pigs and goats ... but not chicken coops.
Chickens don't have that musky stank. I almost got one years ago because it was really cool. But my hands stunk for two days and I couldn't wash it off no matter how hard I scrubbed 🤮

I use the deep litter method in the chicken coop. It's basically 1' deep of wood shavings and they poop on it, and it gets turned. Pretty much a compost pile that doesn't smell that bad and keeps them warm in the winter. Only have to change it out once or twice a year. Very low maintenance.
