Pumpkin Head

This post would be so much better with a picture. Really. I have one on my phone, and if I can get a cord to get it to my computer I sure will.

Tuesday morning when I went to get the goats out of the hut and fence to go on their feeding frenzy, I noticed that one was missing. It was my favorite, Frank. So, I was looking all over and was calling for her.

Finally, she ambled out of the hut, with this crazy pumpkin necklace on!! First, I'll explain that goats, like deer, love pumpkins. After Halloween we put all of our jack-o-lanterns out for the goats to eat.

So, Frank stuck her head in the top of a jack-o-lantern. In the spot were you dig out all the guts. She must have eaten her way through the face part, you know, where you carve out the eyes, nose and scary grin. Then she was stuck. So, this large pumpkin was stuck around her neck. Apparently it was there all night! Hysterical. I called for Eric to (a) see it, and to (b) remove it. We laughed for a while and then he broke it off of her. She was shaking her head and walking sort of strange. She was also yawning and moving really slowly. I suppose she had a hard time sleeping with that on her head!!!

Silly goats.
