A couple of weeks ago, I had promised Alvin his very own photo shoot. We did that and since he wanted to be right in my face the entire time, this is the best picture that we have. :)
On Wednesday we moved Alvin to the big boy pen. The other bucks are in the back pasture with the breeding girls (which hopefully means that we will have winter milk this year) so at least he didn't have to deal with the pushy big boys yet, but Alvin let me know quite clearly that he is NOT a "GOAT" and he absolutely does not understand why we are treating him like he is. We went ahead and put a couple of the older girls with him so that he would have some company, and although he is adjusting he is still somewhat less than impressed.
Hopefully we will be able to use Alvin some as a herd sire this next breeding season, if he is big enough. Definitely he will be ready for the following year.
Alvin at 3 months.
