Today I took Caldi to have a romantic interlude with Beeducked's Max. She seemed to like what she saw and he definitely did. Until, that is, Max's brother, Arthur, complained loudly about being left on his own. Caldi must have thought he sounded far sexier because she promptly ran from Max. Determined not to be thwarted, Max ran after her with Beeducked and me in hot pursuit. Caldi is one determined goat though and jumped in the pond to get away.


When she realised that Max wasn't that keen, she stop running and just stood there while we said things like, "But goats don't like water." Max was returned to the stable with Arthur and Caldi was happy to come out onto dry land. We put her in with the other girls to give her time to calm down while we went inside for a cuppa.


Half hour later we introduced her to Arthur and it was lust at first sight. The deed done, we were about to put her back in the trailer but Beeducked let Max out again. Just to show there were no hard feelings, Caldi calmly stood for him as well.


If she's not pregnant after all that, she and I are going to fall out.


It was an entertaining afternoon.

Thought  animals going to another farm or holding had to stay there for six days or 21 days if pigs

 They can be so funny,
Student -If you have an seperation agreement with isolation facilities you can return them home, not 100% sure what rules in England, but in Scotland we have a 13 day standstill but we have option of filling in a form for  seperation agreenment with map of facilitys/isolation field /shed and inspection of it for approval so you can move animals off within 13 day standstill which is essential for things like shows moving females to males. We have one for mainly going to shows and  some years to a male. So in show season the show team is in isolation shed/field for the summer

Talana I didn't follow that to well the mad goat woman is in Telford and as the goats were running around with others there was no isolation Im off to learn about isolation pens for mating

Student it doesn't have to be a pen it can be a field.
