Morning barn report: Alice, the loudest, bossiest goat, is in heat. Instead of happily walking to the stanchion like she usually does, she sprinted for the buck's pen and I had to go catch her (she is not limping anymore, yay!) Still a bit too early to breed them. Poor Alice.

Spook, the new barn cat, likes hanging out with me while I walk the milking goats back and forth to the stanchion. Today he hopped up on my lap during milking, which was sweet, but not very helpful.
