Butthead has been staying in the barnyard, keeping BAD Boxcar Betty and Callio-Pea company. Butthead has a bad knee (we think maybe it was injured when he was younger...) and when it's rainy and muddy, he has a tough time getting around in the pasture.
Betty and Callio-Pea think it's GREAT fun having Butthead in the
barnyard with them. They help him with his snacks. For some reason,
Betty thinks the best snacks are on the bottom of the feed tub. Who knows... maybe they are.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb ... I'll let you decide which is which.
Any time Alan is even near the treat bin, he has Betty's attention. Betty doesn't ever miss an opportunity for a treat.
Alan's by the treat bin... Betty wonders if he's going to open the lid...
She's having hay, but she really loves animal cookies ... and that's what's in the treat bin. Here she is pretending not to watch Alan, behind me. He's still dangerously close to the treat bin... and the lid MIGHT open!
Looking the other way changes perspective, but he's still not opening the treat bin, Betty! Eat your hay!

How can you not love BAD Betty's facial expressions?!? LOL She should have her own comic strip.
I am curious, how did she break/lose half of her one horn? Knowing Betty, there has to be a story to it :0)

These pictures are a hoot. Betty is one busy little goat! She reminds me of my son. Every time I hear the freezer open I wonder what he's looking for, usually ice cream. Love the photos, happy 4th to you, Alan and all your critters.

Great pics and story line! Have you considered a children's book with real pics?

Haha, sorry Betty...no treats this morning! hehe She is SO funny! What a character...I'd love to meet her! :D
I'm sure she gets plenty of treats...she's probably like my puppy: she thinks whenever she's AWAKE, it's time for treats!LOL

Love the pictures of butthead and betty. As far as Betty, I'm the same way, if somebody is near a treat I have a hard time thinking about anything else also! LOL!
Happy 4th!

A hilarious, yet well photographed series. Thanks for the belly laughs. Say - are Buttheads horns cut? If so, how do you cut them? with a hacksaw? I can't imagine using a ripsaw, compass saw, or Skillsaw. Enquiring minds (are too lazy to Google it) wanna know.
