Daisy has gotten a bit leggy as she is growing pretty fast. Hard to believe she is 13 weeks now. The other day she decided to mess with poor Cloud who was being relentlessly chased by Phoenix the Peacock. Cloud was not in a good mood at all. Daisy wanting to play kept sticking her big head in...

Well a few weeks ago I added 2 new goats to my herd. I just could not resist getting Fainters. I was only gonna get a whether so Abel could have a perminant buddy to hang out with,,, then I spotted the cutest doeling in the pen for the goats the lady had for sale. Some of the goats there were...

I am desperate for a good dog as I am under seige by a very stubborn fox. Would this be a good mix around goats and chickens? Choices in my area is very slim for lgds. Especially with a tight budget.

About what month in pregnancy do goats start to show a baby belly? Bella is driving me nuts as she broke into the Buck pen in mid-March for a fun day. Normally she is very frisky when in heat. She has not shown any signs of her usual frisky heat since, however, I did notice her acting half...

Looking pretty round here... Already showing dangles.....(:lau ....snort.... :gig) Sorry I just could not resist. Abel is just under 4 months and is truly trying to help the girls with baby making. Bella broke into his pen Saturday for a Cougar session with him. She has learned how to...

I love my goofy Fiona. She is the silliest sweety. Hard to believe that when I first brought her home she was a shy gangly 4 month old with bad mineral deficiency. Fiona turned out to be very friendly and loves to follow me about like a puppy. She is much healthier, even though she still...

Well got home from work to hear how my girls had an adventure today. The back is completely fenced and gated since this weekend. Had 4 days of the girls playing with no hiccups til today. Bella decided to get Oreo to go with her on an outing. They tested the gates and found the weakness. One of...

The girls were happily munching on hay n alfalfa when suddenly they noticed something amiss. Why their toy slide had moved! This was not good as Queen Bella does not like anything or anyone out of their place. She sent Fiona and Oreo to check to see why the toy was in the middle of their pen...

Yep, I am having the other kind of delivery. Just purchased a ND bucking and doe (unrelated) from Prairiewood Farm. Can't wait for them to be shipped here, still got to get the shipping details ironed out. So excited... :weee :weee :weee All this baby watching got me thinking about bucks, the...

I just got a new doe to add to my little herd. She is a pure Nubian doe even though she is not registered. I have had her since yesterday evening and she has been crying for her old mates this whole time. Oreo likes her but Fiona is not sure about Oreo. Right now she is pretty stressed about the...

First weekend for little Oreo and it has been raining something aweful. Our property has transformed into a swamp, the goats are on a high spot that looks like an island. Bella has kept little Oreo inside their house; but, Oreo is restless as she just wants to play. (Bella's pen has a roof that...

Last month we got some bad rain and the goat pen flooded so I had to move them. :ep I had noticed that Bella was getting rounder but just thought she had a big hay belly. Well upon having to catch my wild child to carry her safely to high ground I noticed a plump udder. Oh boy! :hide So I feel...

Hope this is in the right spot. Rufus has an appointment to be castrated the Monday after Thanksgiving. The vet said that they put the goat under anesthisia during the procedure. My dad was telling this to a friend that has goats and she said that the anethisia would kill Rufus cus goats do not...

This morning Dad and I loaded the 2 up for their trip to the Vet. Rufus has had a persistant cough and I noticed Bella sneezing the other day. I decided to take them to the Vet for expert help being I am such a noob at goats. Rufus was happy to walk with me until it was time to go in the...

The pen my goats Rufus and Bella live in is a 10ft wide x 30ft long chain link fence with a roof n tarp on one end. The pen is made up of 2 dog kennels and can be broken down to move if we decide to change spots. The spot we put it up on was very heavy in underbrush so Rufus and Bella had fun...

Not sure if this is the correct spot to post this. I have been really nervous about trimming my goats hooves for the first time. I ordered hoof kit on line along with a DVD so I can see someone actually do it as I am a visual hands on type learner. (got books too but needed to watch someone go...
