Banjo has a new home

After leaving work a little early, I packed the trailer and headed to Haugen with Bob and Lisa to get our new baby. Banjo loaded like a pro. When we got him home, we put him in an enclosure separate from Sparkler. There was some squealing and kicking, mostly by Sparkler but we left them alone and got some food.

We watched them from the deck and could see Sparkler pawing at the gate and still kicking occasionally. I didn't want to see her foot get caught in the gate so thought it would be better to just put them together. It was obvious that Banjo was the submissive one so I wasn't afraid of him hurting her and was pretty sure she wouldn't hurt him. So after an hour and a half, we opened the gate. Out they ran into the pasture kicking up their heels. There was a short time of nuzzling, then squealing and a little kicking, but I could tell they were going to be buddies.
