Nice Mel I haven't been to a Rodeo in many years, I always liked going but I think when they rope the cows it's cruel, I know it may not hurt them but I dunno it just bothered me. But normally there is a lot of hot cowboys wondering around..LOL

I do LOVE the pig pictures, I love pigs and I've always wanted one! (besides Mike) LOL.

Little goats -

(with ears)

Sleepy goats -

(with ears galore :main_laugh: )

Can't say I've ever seen a goat without ears...:main_no: :main_huh: Very nice pictures, so thanks for sharing.

But out of curiosity, what's the deal with "Elsie the Cow"? Any special story on her due to the way she's all dressed up? Just curious.

Elsie is the Borden milk cow silly! Borden is sold all over the country right?

And, umm, I've never seen a goat with no ears either. It looked like they had been cropped at some point. Maybe he used to be in one of those underground goat fighting rings.:thinking:

Great pictures guys! I love the Wallabies . You know, someday I'm coming down there to visit, well, we will have to make sure the Rodeo is in town so we can all go together.

WOW...That cow would have to be like REALLY old! Borden's been on the market for years! :main_laugh: Not sure why I didn't make the connection!? :main_huh:

And, umm, I've never seen a goat with no ears either. It looked like they had been cropped at some point. Maybe he used to be in one of those underground goat fighting rings.:thinking:

LOL...Underground Goat Fighting? You folks down in Texas must have some strange activities you partake in to pass the time. :main_laugh:

Why don't the goats have ears???


Those piglets are too cute!

 

[Mel&Keith]

I honestly have no idea why the goat doesn't have ears. She wouldn't tell me.
