LKM Farms-2019

[lkmartin1230]

It has been a while since I updated on my herd! Summer 2018 was terrible. We had someone feed our goats something they shouldn't have without our knowledge and lost several does. I then sold 9 more and got my herd down to 7 for the summer/fall to start college! All but one of my does kidded in December right before Christmas. I have so far 7 kids total: 1 set of triplets, 1 set of twins and 2 sets of singles. 3 bucklings, 4 doelings. Waiting for the last doe to kid anytime now. I also added a new nigerian dwarf buck to herd on December 30th(my birthday goat as I have been calling him haha). I also was offered to buy back two of the does I sold over the summer and bought them back. Hope everybody has a great 2019!

Was it fed intentionally?

Sorry for your losses. Hope school is going well for you. Grats on the new herd sire and new kids.

I have a relative that threw in black hay with them while I was at work and they had eaten it before I knew what happened. He knew better than to do it, but did it anyways.

Pic 1- Snowflake my 20 year old welsh cross and one of the babies.
Pic 2-"Skye" the new buck.

So Skye had to be sold not even 2 weeks after arriving because he was jumping fences, no matter how tall they were and getting into the road. So I'm officially looking for another buck once again.

Love the pony picture with the tiny baby goat. That baby doesn't even come up above the pony's pasterns! LOL

Hope you find a new buck that doesn't jump fences.

 

[lkmartin1230]

Thank you. I'm most likely going to get that picture printed and frame it
Oh me too....it took me a year to decide on a buck and now it'll probably be another year haha
