Spicer, my rare San Clemente Island Spanish goat was joined Friday night by two other Spanish heritage goats that are also from an endangered strain of historic goats. Four year old War Admiral and Sea Biscuit, a weanling, took up residence with us through Wendy's efforts. War Admiral is bigger than I expected. I had intended to use 60 gallon barrels for housing. This is great for Sea Biscuit, but War Admiral could wear a barrel as an ear ring.
These goats are the next step in our efforts to preserve and promote the Corollas within the framework of a reconstructed 17th century small farm to be known as the Gwaltney Frontier Farm.
(Oh yea, if things go as planned I will ride 100 miles this weekend. No, not on a goat, on Colonial Spanish Horses).
