I'm SOOO EXCITED! - 06/09/22 12:15 PM

My neighbor has some donkeys and he had a mama that didn't want her baby.

So he's bottle feeding him but is busy and just doesn't have time..SO..I'm getting him.

I'm gonna raise him till he's weaned then he's gonna take him back. It works for me cause I get to baby him and then give him back..kinda like a grandma.

Jerry ain't to happy but Im Thrilled.

Here he is.

Probably not bu it t that was my idea because I know when he gets bigger he might be over aggressive and could hurt me not meaning to. He only be half a mile away as the crow flies so I can go see him often.

He has 10 other ones so it works for everyone.

I can make a ho.emade formula I expensively so were good to go.


Jerrys not exactly on board but we have 2 lambs too right now so it's not a big deal.

I've never raised one and am excited to give it a go.

When I told jerry guess what..he said you probably got that (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman).LOL

Another neighbor was thinking about it but she decided against it so I get him.

She's In her late 60s and thought he'd be too much for her to handle.

I'm kind of with Jerry on this. Now he has to share affections with someone arguably cuter! LOL

Re: I'm SOOO EXCITED! - 06/09/22 02:33 PM

Lol.

When I first saw it the other day ..before I knew I was getting it..I said oh I want him. And he's little so he won't take up much space in th bed.lol

Boy if looks could killed. grin

I've raised alot of bum lambs and other domestic animal bums...puppies kittens..in the past so it'll be fun to try so.wthi g new and the fact he's o cute is a bonus.

He'll be flowing me. Around.lime a dog.

I to Jerry I was takin him.in tractor supply with me.

Ill teach him to lead which will be helpful.to Johnwhen he goes back on the farm.too and I'll tie him.out some.so he gets used to that too and won't fight a rope.

He's gonna be a fun project and the grandkids will love him

I'm so excited that I forgot to put my patient's underwear on him when I was. Dressing him after his shower...then I put his shoes on th wrong feet..and THEN I forgot to comb his hair. Lol. We got a good laugh out of it.

They're cute even when they get big, the minis anyway, There is a small herd where my daughter has her horses, they kind of roam around looking for handouts, hook them on treats and they'll be your bodyguards, lol

Re: I'm SOOO EXCITED! - 06/12/22 12:18 PM

If you got access to goats milk, and like ice cream, make a batch of ice cream substituting goat milk for cream. I dont like to just drink it but it makes delicious ice cream.
Posted By: cathryn

Re: I'm SOOO EXCITED! - 06/12/22 12:27 PM

Jerry lives ice cream. I'll have to reynthat. I was looking at my crank ice cream maker yaleaterday thinking I need to make some.

Danny what's your recipe for ice cream? Or anyone else for that matter for homemade ice cream?

So your recipes call for eggs?
Posted By: danny clifton

Re: I'm SOOO EXCITED! - 06/12/22 01:20 PM

4 egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup whole milk
1 cup goats milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Mix the egg yolks and sugar in sauce pan. Heat the milk in a separate pan until it just simmers then stir it into the egg yolk sugar mix. Heat it to 165F. Don't boil it. Put it in the fridge awhile. Needs to be at least down to 65. Colder is fine. Add the goat milk , vanilla and put it in your ice cream maker.
