A Whisker Away

Having beards on female Nigerian dwarf goats are normal, but some of my does were sporting new whiskers today. Upon closer inspection, these whiskers were not new fur growth, but rather cacti needles. Lovely. 

Do you know how difficult it is to get a goat to stay still while getting those things out? It took me awhile, but I think I got them all out. Well, out of Scotchie and Sundae. I don't think the others had any, but I'll look again tomorrow. Farm life is never dull!

The barndo is coming along inside. I finished the China cabinet today which pleased my heart. Some other boxes were unpacked and other boxes filled to donate, but we're getting there!
