I swear when it rains, it pours..My son mentioned to me this morning, that yesterday when he was out w/the goats he thought he noticed that one of our Spanish/Boer Cross's who will be 1 yr in July seems to have an extra teat growing off of one of her two?

I have not had a chance to go outside and check yet, but has anyone heard of this, and is it bad? He said he thought he read that this would make that side unuseable as far as feeding her kids. I am concerned that it might be a health thing. I tried checking on goatworld, and unless I missed something I did not see any reference to it.

I think today I am going to go shopping, that always makes me feel better (smile).
