I didn't forget my fodder in the excitement over baby goats!
The first day's oats have lots of roots and a goodly number of little green shoots popping up. The roasting pans don't have drainage, so I am misting the shoots with a spray bottle and have the tray covered in plastic wrap to keep it moist.
The wheat seems to have germinated a little better than the oats. We will see how it looks after 5 days compared with the oats.
My friend sent me a picture from University of Maryland where they are researching fodder for sheep. I'm interested to look up their results.
They are so cute and it will be interesting to see if they have "Silly's" personality. We need names!
ReplyDeleteMama named them for me this morning- Cash and Cara. Kris, we may be stealing some of your names. Their ADGA names will be "Hammock Haven Cash 'n Carry" and "Hammock Haven Cara Bleu".
