The Newest Gotta Have Item of the Season...
No, don't worry, this little critter isn't dead...it's just pretending! It turns out in the wonderful world of livestock oddities, there is a breed of Fainting Goats. When startled or scared, these little cuties will just freeze up and faint. I find this absolutely hilarious and a must have for our future hobby farm (since it looks like hubby will win the battle on that particular subject). Hey, the bees need a friend or two, right? And imagine the label possibilities for fainting goat cheese. Yummy!

SCAREDY CHEESE! i'm sorry it's all my fault. i never should have told you about fainting goats.
yes, it is all your fault!! gene is thrilled about this, by the way!
i was told that if you scare them too much, they'll catch on. i don't know if that's true though.
I sure hope not! Everything I've read on them thus far states the fainting is really more of a genetic mishap...a stiffening of the muscles more than a 'faint'. Oh well...I've been warned! Hey, maybe I could run a fainting goat resuce and therapy where we would scare them so often, they would never faint again. Bring on the goats!
