Park your BUTT for a minute, & visit RUMINATIN' ACRES, 'cause the BUCKS stop here, & so do the DOES. WETHER you have goats or are just thinking about getting some, we're sure you will enjoy your visit! So grab a bag of croutons, & COME ON OUT TO THE BARN! |
THIS SITE IS DEDICATED to the "generic goats," "brush goats," "garbage goats," - the outcasts, the misfits, the unregistered ones, the ones not destined for the show ring. You'll find no champions here... BUTT - they are special & wanted & spoiled & LOVED ANYWAY! |
They may be a bit funny-looking - too long-legged, too slender; their horns may be irregular, their fur an odd color, their hooves a bit uneven. They may need glasses or hearing aids. BUTT - they are healthy & happy & well-fed & LOVED ANYWAY! |
MEET MY MOWERS: * Simplicity (pygmy doe) * Toro (pygmy wether) * Murray (pygmy cross wether) * John Deere (pygmy wether) * Black & Decker (pygmy doe and wether twins) * Cub Cadet (pygmy wether) * Husqvarna (pygmy wether) * White (Nigerian dwarf wether) * Poulan Peanut (Nigerian/pygmy doe) * Simon Ryobi (the foreigner - Nubian mix) |
WETHER you have goats for fun or profit, or both, the important thing is that they are well-cared for and loved, & they will pay you back many times over. They have added much pleasure to my life, & now I can't imagine how I ever did without them! |
TAKE TIME TO STOP AND EAT THE FLOWERS! @--{------ |
Our 5-acre farmette, located in lovely east-central Wisconsin, is owned and operated by Rick & Eileen Lankow. We moved to this small rural town (pop. 2029) in 1992, and the goats took over the following summer. I knew we'd "gone country" when my Mother's Day gift that next year was a hay-fork, which has seen MUCH USE since those early days! |
