Happy Goats. . . and Chicken :)

Happy goaties and chicken lounging in the autumn sunshine. This was too cute, I just had to run for the camera! :)
The little hen's name is "Chicken Noodle" and she is snuggling next to Claribelle and our newest babies out of Cordelia, Pierre and Jacque.
Yes, I know, Claribelle needs to go on a little diet. Anyways, just wanted to share this cute photo! Have a wonderful day everyone! :)

Goat Babies!



I completely forgot to blog about Cordelia's kidding last Friday. It was a "textbook" delivery with two adorable blue-eyed boys. We were hoping for girls but they are both healthy and cute! So, we are all happy!

These little guys will be available to good homes as bucklings or wethered pets. If wethered, I would prefer to sell them as a pair. They are being raised by Cordelia but are super tame, sweet, and people-friendly. Ready for weaning about mid-November.

Some photos of the boys at 28 hours old. I actually took some decent pics! :)

New Additions!

On Monday, I drove down to Lebanon, Oregon to pick up a new doe and her month-old buckling. They are both really nice animals and have wonderful genetics and potential. And they both have blue eyes to boot! :D

I am loving the doe's FF udder. Her teats are soooo long and her fore udder is super smooth! I can't wait to see it with a 12-hour fill.

The buckling's sire is *B NC PromisedLand RB Rampage (a GCH/ARMCH GoodDay SunShine *M, 2*D E91 son). I am hoping he will be a teat and foreudder "fixer". Unfortunately he is a wild little bugger. His dam, Spring, is very sweet and is a loving, doting mother.
I will be taking more "official" photos soon. Anyways, just wanted to share!

I just love this doe!!
