Remember Sparkin' Sparta?
Been through a spell of jumping and climbing over fences?
Couple of weeks ago we found him in the big pasture with the donkey standing over him.
Not sure what happened, coz i wasn't there, but figure either Sparta got caught on the barbed wire coming over the fence, or Sancho thought to taste the goat.
Either way, he was traumatized and his lovely pendulous ear got hacked up.
Quit jumping the fence, stayed real close to the hay manger.
I thought this was fine, small price to pay to teach the stinker to stay home where he belongs.
Rather tear up an ear than loose the whole goat to the predators in the south field.
And thank goodness he was hung up on that end, and not the other.
Sparkin' Sparta didn't learn his lesson, though.
Guess he got over the shell shock.
Back to hanging out at the girls gate.
Guys.
Whatta ya gonna do?
