What beautiful pictures! 😍 Madilynn is such a cute little baldy. 😘

So I know you've said in the past that you are terrible at selling goats, is the plan to just keep hanging onto all those babies you've got running around? Don't get me wrong, I can see why you'd want to, but I'm just wondering what the plan is. 😄

The goat “kids” are huge!! 😂
Lily is especially chunky. She’s always STARVING. Just ask her. 😆

Oh my gosh, no. It was never the plan. It just seems to be what’s happening. I would sell quite a few if I could find a good home but I gave up because the market is flooded around me and with really good quality goats too. And the only buyers I was attracting were ones that I wouldn’t sell to for any price. I’d let some good goats fairly cheap if I could trust the person they were going to. I’m not even advertising now and just hoping some amazing buyer stumbles in to my life. 😆
Oh my goodness, beautiful pics with the grandkids. Hard to believe little Maddy is walking around, able to visit with all the critters 😍
Great pictures of Jelly Bean and Lavenders families as well. They really are growing great!

Both Thistle and Clovers pics made me laugh 😆
Maddy is quite the character and wants to do everything her brother does.
That’s what I love about goats, they are always making me laugh (or scream…but it’s never boring, lol).
 
Oh my goodness....Carter is a little man now!😮Madilynn is 1? Wow they grew so fast! And Little Jelly Bean, she is soooo cute. All the goats, kiddos & turkeys look great! Thanks for shareing the pictures! Beautiful family💗

I gotcha'. 🙂 It's great that you have the space and resources to wait until the right opportunity arises. You'd think there'd be someone out there that would love to buy from you! 😊

I honestly didn’t try super hard because I got disheartened by the buyers that thought goats could live in a tiny pen in the backyard, or that thought they only need one. I need to actually give a good try at selling them.
If I need some new does (or a buck) in the future I would love to get them from you! Unfortunately this year is about focusing on what I have and selling down to a reasonable number. Maybe next year 😏
If you ever need one, let me know. I know I’d sell to you and not worry. 😄
