Well we picked up our two kinder doelings today. They're kinda freaked out and the lighting in my barn is rather bad for photos, so I will try and get you some good pictures tomorrow. Their names are Belladonna (or just Bella) and Primula (or just Prim). Bella is all black, and she is real...

About a week ago, I finally got my goats! They are pregnant and are due late December/early January! Can't wait to have some new babies on the farm :) Luna is trying to get the treats and Diamond is in the background.

Alright, as some of you might know I was going to wait until spring to get my first goats, but I should have seen this coming, turns out I am very impatient and once I have started something I like to complete it before I move on. So getting goats is all I really can think about right...

Hello! My BF and I recently got our first goat, a Nigerian Dwarf doeling. She is adorable and sweet and we are in love with her. In our research prior to getting her, we read that while getting at least 2 goats was recommended - it was possible to get just one if enough attention was paid...

I recently brought home 2 myotonic (fainting) goats. They are wethers that are 4.5 months old. I have no experience with goats and am following what the breeder told me to do. I currently am feeding them 1/2 bucket Chaffhaye in the am and 1/2 bucket Chaffhaye in the evening with a 1/2c...
