Mainly, just a heads up, I forgot I disabled the maximum size for uploads for testing purposes, I was sitting and waiting for this thread to load and I couldn't figure out why the heck it was taking so long, till I looked at the size of the pictures, the constraints should be 500k 800x600, if you have big ones you can just reduce the size in mspaint

I went and downloaded the pics from the server, minimized them and reuploaded, should be easier for it to load for the people on slower connections

Well I am a stay at home dad. I have 5 yr old twins and they started full time school this year. So I decided to start prepping and homesteading.  I figured the obvious place to start as far as animals went were to get chickens. Then I decided that Nigerian Dwarf Goats fill a meat and milk need and are small and easy to transport. They eat half as much as full size goats as well. So then I was like " How can I get meat in the freezer quickly and on the cheap. So I decided on rabbits.  They say with 2 does and one buck you can produce over 200 lbs of meat a year?

I am really enjoying the trial and error of what works and so on. Its been real enjoyable working with the animals.   :)  

 

As far as getting your wives on board........lots of baby goat pics!!  Ill tell you one thing I have learned and that is intact Billy Goats STINK!!  They piss all over there face and in there mouths and such.  The does love it though.  Had my wife known that I probably would have never been able to get a intact male.   LOL  But you cant bred em without him so he stays!  haha
