"Puzzle Pieces"


Introducing my new buckling, Puzzle, he is 6 months old, and a purebred Nubian. His mom, Dad, and sister and brother are all registered, but sadly he is not. I might buy his Mom, "Pearl" So they are going to breed her first. (To their buck.) :-) :-) Baby goats expected in late march to early April.YAY!!!
And, Pearl had TRIPLETS, Puzzle is just ONE of them!!! pearl had two bucklings, and one doeling (which they are showing at the fair this year!) :-)  Pearl is a full dapple, and so are her babies. (except my buckling Puzzle.)
Puzzle is now living with velvet in their own pasture across from Nellie.
They are really spoiled, and are always wanting someone to go give them a "Carrot Popsicle" :-)
Yes. I have a recipe! Lol! :)
Puzzle is "supposed" to breed her this season, but Velvet's a big pill to the buck, and the buck is a big pill to velvet, Lol!

Recipe:

1 measuring cup, (or something to freeze it in.)
1/4 cup of water, (for each one.)
3 small carrots, (or some other vegetable that will not become soaked from the water when it is freezing)

a pop sickle stick, (I re-use mine!) :-)
some plastic rap, (for the popsickle stick to "sit" in the middle. (or aluminum foil)

First, cut the carrots into small pieces, then put them into the measuring cap with the water, stir, put the plastic rap on top, poke a hole into the plastic, then stick the "stick" in and freeze for a couple hours. Done!
(if you want to make one for yourself) You can also make lemonade pop sickles, and other interesting flavors!

Just now, I found out that a couple "Bad" coyotes got into the goat pen last night and tore up the fencing. Grrr... 
Oh well... at least they are not hurt, and i guess the goats get their own stall tonight!
:-)
