And now, straight from the goat's mouth.......
Hi, my name is Violet, and I now live at Wrensong Farm. Two doelings, Daisy and Roca, made the journey from Elfin Acres in Creswell (which is south of Eugene, OR) to Wrensong last weekend in some dog crates in the back of a truck. It wasn't fun at all, it was a long drive and was raining the whole way. At least we were able to stay pretty dry because as most of you probably know we goats do NOT like the rain.
I am a big girl, a first freshener, and a princess...so I guess I'll make the introductions.....over there....the buckskin girl is Roca, and the spotted girl is Daisy....
They're not sisters but they are good friends.....
And over there, is little Opal. She just recently joined our herd from Schoonover Farms.
We have a good size paddock that we have to stay in for now.......
Because someone else that came to live with us is an Anatolian guardian dog, name Degerli (pronounced DARE lee) which means most valuable....well I'm here to tell you she is not near as valuable as say....a peanut..or some raisins (at least as far as I am concerned!).
Anyway, Degerli is only 9 months old so she can't be trusted with us right now, so she has the whole rest of the pastures to wander while we are stuck in this paddock.....
See you next time.....Violet
