Well, since I shared pics of the girls (chickens), I thought I would share pictures of the boys, too.

Mutt was gifted to us as he was bothering the pregnant mama goats at the farm he came from..since we don't have have goats, it wouldn't be a problem at our farm. But he is just so ornery....Mutt was his name before he came to live with us.



We got Shaggy so Mutt would have a friend, after we noticed he would hang out at the end of the property as close as he could get to the Neighbor's cows. He was less then a year old and still all wooly and shaggy, so they is how he got his name even though he is not very Shaggy now.



They keep the back pasture picked, saves my husband hours of mowing in the summer.

They are so cute, Michelle! The farmer next door has two boys as well. When we first moved here, I remember I was scared to pieces the first time I heard them bray across the field. Now I love it!

We are in West Tennessee. What part are you from?



Blessings, Lea

Adorable! I would love to have them, ornery or not! I'm glad they have each other to keep company.

Well, they do get along pretty well but they do tangle once in a while, Shaggy actually agravates Mutt alot, but you can tell when Mutt has had enough ears go back and he bites Shaggy! But I am thinking that is typical for animals to play and aggravate each other at times!

Here is Shaggy's best friend, the neighbor, if either Shaggy or Eeyore get out of each other's sight the other one is braying like crazy until the "lost" one comes running to the fence! haha

They were watching Baxter bark at the Bluebird house, like what is his problem?!!
