In the barn...

a little goat is chewing dada's shorts. haha.

This is my first time seeing goats.
I was told that goats belong to a family of animals called Caprines. They are called ruminants because they have a four-part stomach and chew their cud, like cows or deer. Goats are different in appearance from sheep because they have shorter tails, beards and hollow horns that are generally directed upwards. Goats are lively and curious creatures, and are kept as livestock, as well as, pets in certain parts of the world. There are about 440 million goats worldwide.

Looking at papa goats.


Feeding a baby goat with grass. Had a wonderful morning. The weather was hot but I enjoyed the outing so much that I would be heading home for a long good nap.
