This is Deery giving his mom Pumpkin the nigerian dwarf a kiss. He is going to be released soon. I hate to separate them. :sigh:
Thanks for all the compliments. I saw Deery sleeping next to her yesterday but I did not have my camera. I will be posting Pics of kids soon. Isabella's Ligs are gone! :dance:
What a special bond. Have you ever released a deer before that was attached to one of your goats? I'm wondering if the deer will hang around your place after being released? Or, do you take him a long ways away? It's a great picture.
Thanks again! He is the first one I know of ever raised by a goat. Deery & Milley were going to be released this weekend but a three legged deer kept by anouther rehaber hasn't had his stitches removed yet and we had planed to release them togther. I think the plan is to wait for now. That is fine by me & Punk (Pumkin's nick name). We love him and will miss him alot! Oh and the reason I did not reply sooner is Isabella had twins yesterday!
What a sweet pic.....and Pumpkin is a very special girl to have adoptd him and raised him, I know you will miss him, but it is for the best. A buck in rut is so much more dangerous than a goat buck. He may stick "close to home" for awhile, but once the natural instinct kicks in he'll be one regal boy!
