This is a terrible picture of me, but it's the horse I'm tryin' to show you. Isn't he magnificent!
A few years ago, our grandsons had a couple of goats, Gizmo and Fred. We learned then that goats will eat ANYTHING including the siding off your house and window screens!
One way to tell if a chicken (or rooster) is healthy is by the comb on the top of their head. If it stands up straight and strong, he's a pretty healthy rooster. Would you expect anything different from a Biltmore chicken?
I don't know why these sheep weren't out in the pasture with the rest of them - maybe just so we could get a close up look at a couple of them. This was actually all set up so we would be reminded that George Vanderbilt wanted this estate to be totally self-sustaining. With over 100,000 acres, there was certainly room for any kind of animal he might want!
This is my daughter-in-law. It's one of my favorite photos of her because she is not just a horse whisperer, she's an animal-of-every-kind whisperer. Their goats aren't housepets, but this one came in for a hug anyway.
The End
