Dare I say that our high for the day was 67? It was like fall! But yes... Heat will be back here too later this week. I don't know how you guys all handle it down there. I melt at 85 ;)

I was feeling happy that we only got to 98. Supposed to be 100 tomorrow and then low 90's for the weekend. First time below 95 for a high in weeks.

I figured since we have started breeding for next years kids, I would post some pics of this years kids.

Pearl was the first kid born, last week of Feb to Opal a FF.

Should probably name her Moose, she's 40 lbs.

This is her and Tira. Tira is 17 months old and Pearl is 7 months old.

LOL- Know I am catching on to why you say @Goat Whisperer 's goats are "fine" :lol::lol::lol:

Looking great! Exciting time going into the breeding season.

Have to ask... do you and your other half go back and forth and agonize over who is going to be bred to whom? And then change your mind every other day?

Not too bad. We were in agreement on Moonpie and Forchiny. Molasses looks so nice out of Moonpie and Fortunato we are hoping for something similar.
We are going to breed Zamia and Rosie to Valiant. We don't think they are good candidates for AI, they have this weird come in heat twice thing.
I think we are going to try AI on Taffy and Cocoa with Buck Finn.
