In 2010 this darling baby goat
was born here at Kessi Farms...
After seeing her gorgeous, long, white, ears,
we named her Long Ears
Even in a crowd...
those long ears stand right out!
Here she is a few years later:
Again....those gorgeous long ears stand right out.
Long Ears is left of the center goat
in this photo.
Long Ears was part of our commercial
Boer Goat herd for several years.
Two years ago we brought her home to live
here in our little, red barn:
Here she is standing up waiting for her dinner.
Every evening she greeted me
as I came into the barn.
Long Ears was the lead goat of her little
family of goats.
Each morning she would lead them out through
the pasture and decide where they
would browse each day.
Here is Long Ears
with her Daughter Little Lotta
She has been a good mama goat for us.
We will miss you Long Ears.
We gave Long Ears back to the earth...
Good Bye my sweet girl.
p.s. Long Ears struggled with health problems since January. We spent lots of time trying to mend her with lots of help from the vet, but we just couldn't save her. Her daughter, Little Lotta, has taken over as lead goat of the herd. There are still lots of sweet goats waiting for me each morning and evening when I head out to the barn....that makes me happy.
Many thanks for your very kind comments,
