Lol. I think I'm going to start a thread on castrating mature bucks. See what experience everyone has. I dont see him going anywhere as a buck =/

Bambi is completely unrelated to everyone. You haven't seen how many bucks we have?! Lol...its a bit ridiculous. ...... imagine how bad this place stinks at rut time.

We literally have something for everyone-
Long/short hair
Blue/marbled eyes
Coloring
Moonspots and Marbling
And amazing gene pools

Yeah its a bit overboard.......why I'm looking into so many more does!

Everyone thinks I am just crazy. :(

Told Dh I want to add 2 more bucks next year... he ask who for... I told him... he asked how much for Ai start up... I told him.... he said when do you want to get the bucks? :lol: :lol: :lol:

What I didn't tell him is I will be retaining some does this year. :gig

Your boys are handsome and if they are lovey and not jerks than why wouldn't you keep them... right :hu

Lol!!!!! I love boys. They are the best. And always seem to be the cutest ones!!! Even though our girls were all futurity nominated and would've been fabulous to retain, a great home came over and i was fine with them going. Lol. I have SO much interest in the boys and im just like, ummm thats nice! Lol!

Soooooo everyone got out into the BIG pen today. It was Beyond awesome. Kids are the best. Idk who wouldn't just melt into a big puddle of goo watching kids play. Also seeing Bambi with her kids, and her daughter Shadow with her kids, and my kid loving Marilys kids...melts my heart.

Pics of the boys for us boy lovers. Last is Marilyns doeling we retained. Bald face and blue eyes.

Ill take some pics for you this afternoon. It is a Beautiful barn. I will be honest, i am just a resident, i do not own it. The owners own the 11 big warmblood horses, their babies and retired TBs that i take care of here.

its a 7 stall barn, we added on the outs for the horses and goats, tack room, hay shedrow, 3 cross ties, horse stock, and abundance of storage. The inside is actually featured in the MD Barns ad. Its so beautiful. Were just putting the finishing touches of flagstone on the pillars and its done. The owners have invested over 200k in this barn.....yeah. their custom ranch signs are here ready to hang once we re-paint.

When we move goats new housing will be much more modest as it needs to fit in our budget. But both my husband and i love to build and design and that includes homes for the kids ;)

Sorry it's been a month since i updated! Life has a way of doing the darndest things and making us a little overwhelmed!

So here is where we are-
Luna and Astrid (both doelings) already went to their new home
Moonpie (now a wether) goes home on Saturday
Marilyns twins are retained DiMaggio (Joe, now a wether) and Lorelei (doeling)
Adonis (Bambi Buckling) retained to replace his injured dad, now himself had an injury GAHHHHH!

We need more boys like an absolute hole in the head. But i couldn't let Marilyns boy go, my daughter LOVES him and he looks like his grandSire, who made me fall in love with the Myotonic breed. Adonis is the sweetest little guy just like his dad, but amazing confirmation like his mom. I had offers to sell him as a buck, and now I am kind of regretting since he is hurt =/ but he also loves my daughter and knows how to push her stroller!!!

Most importantly we have kids due in 2weeks!!!!!! From Fantasy and Praline, our senior does who are twins!! And Fantasy is bred to our up and coming buck, a marbled and moonspotted!!!! Weeeeeeee! And she is big as a house! Idk how she will last 2weeks! I will post updated photos of them this afternoon!
