    How rare are Fiber Goats?

    I have a rare bloodline of Spanish Goat called "Morefield" Spanish goat. There's not more than 200 or so left and I have 10 of them. My herdsire is so rare that he has DNA saved in a rare heritage breed conservatory in Rhode Island and I purchased him from this conservatory and had him...

    Rare Spanish Goat Bloodline

    Linebreeding

    A geneticist once told me, "It is only inbreeding if linebreeding doesn't work". LOL! Seriously, a great great relative is not really that close. I would breed this mating but then breed those offspring to a completely unrelated buck. The higher the inbreeding coefficient, the greater the...

    Prayers Needed For Our Farm Matriarch

    Homesteaderwife, It has been so very difficult here on the farm seeing everything that mom has had her hands on and she is no longer here. Time heals all wounds though and we are all moving forward. It is a new normal now. Thanks so much for your prayers, thoughts, and kind words. God bless you!
