I have, at present, a toggenburg nanny, a 1/2 nubian-1/2 Boer Billy (Whose a Major pain), and a 2 month old buckling. The billy came with the place when my father died. My brother gave me the nanny. It was only recently That I realized that trying to teach a 5 year old nanny to milk was a lost cause. My wife and I have decided to get rid of the billy and nanny and keep the buckling. 1st I'll wether the kid so he'll stay gentle and keep him around for shrub and weed control.
You're right about them wanting to hop up on the hives. I have my beeyard fenced from kids of all kinds.
Whethers are great, they don't smell and they are great pets, just like a dog, only it eats brush and stuff. I used to sell mine to people who had horses that needed company. Standardbred rescue took a few from me, I think I donated those ones. This tread is still on topic as long as we stll mention BEEs and LAWNMOWERs in it  |

I love the way the threads weave in and out of different topics. I love the people on the forum. I love how everyone is so kind to each other (well, 95% of the time, loll), I love to spend time here when I wake up. Hmmm....seems like a happy place to be!!!!! All you have a wonderful day, great day and wishes of good health to all. Cindi

There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold. The Arctic trails have their secret tales that would make your blood run cold.

I mowed in front of my hives with a tractor/shredder the first year, right up until one hot August day. I ended up with over 50 stings in the head and neck. Any hive can get cranky. Want to get your adrenalin going, try getting a diesel tractor stopped with a cloud of hot bees on your head. Suit up, it's safer.
