I absolutely love this picture! Every time that I look at it, this picture just makes me feel good. The sun was spectacular that day. Since then we've had rain, rain, rain... But this is Oregon:) We are well into the winter rainy season now. Our last yearling does are in the breeding pen. And soon, we will hopefully be having happy and healthy babies from our older doe, Dutchess. We are praying for a successful kidding and some baby doelings to add to our herd.
Also, we will finally be participating in the ADGA's Linear Appraisal and starting on milk test this year. My own babies are slightly older and time is allowing me to put our does to the test! The wonderful thing about both these programs is that they can assist us with our future dairy program. Our plan, at this point, is to essentially grow our own, with only the occasional new buck addition. We might also try our hand at AI in the future but that is in the distant future for sure.
Thank you for all your support over the years. We hope to continue to bring you excellent goats for both milking and show. Take care and Happy Holidays!
