Mormon Fork Creek Ranch We raise Spanish and Spanish/Boer goats in Bates County, Missouri

10/09/2026

Throwback to when we built our first barn. Long before we even got our first goats. Build it and they'll come, as they say, and it worked ☺️ Here we are now with many goats and many more barns to fit them all into. What a journey it's been. Full of blood, sweat, and tears. And a lot of swearing πŸ‘€

But also a lot of love and joy and gratitude πŸ™πŸΌπŸ’•

This one's for the people who claim goats will eat literally anything. Goat farmers know that goats are actually very picky about what they eat, as demonstrated here by Luna nosing through her feed to select what she wants πŸ˜…

Only a few months ago my babies were little roly poly teddy bears πŸ₯Ή

Volume up for maximum cuteness πŸ’•

This is what happens when the bucks are done servicing their ladies.... They start trash talking across the fence πŸ˜„

Is it truly breeding season until a buck gets out and tries to kill the other one over each other's ladies? πŸ˜…

Here is Kenny being kept at bay by me till Mr Mormon Fork comes to help me get him back in his pen where he belongs 😁

Does anyone have any idea what this possum is doing? He/she shows up every night to clean up any food leftover by the stray cat I feed on the deck. I've never seen this odd behavior before though πŸ€”

Here's a quick look into the life of a goat farmer in the summer...

We have one idiot bucking who insists on getting his head stuck in the fence at least once a day. So when I came home from the grocery store and saw him stuck and bawling yet again I stopped just long enough to switch my shoes for boots and ran out to get him unstuck.

Not thinking about the consequences of non-farm wear dress in overgrown pasture...

And so now I'm spending the better part of an hour removing stick tights from my dress 😭

On a positive note, idiot buckling is now wearing an idiot stick to keep him out of trouble πŸ˜πŸ‘πŸΌ

It's been a long time since I've posted so I hope my dear followers haven't given up on this page πŸ™‚

It's been over two years since I was laid off and about a year since I decided to give up the search for a job and focus on the farm and family. Some days it's still hard to accept the abrupt end to a career I loved. But on days like this I'm grateful for the opportunities that change has brought me.

This little man has been so sick for the last week or so. There were days we thought he wasn't going to make it and we were going to have to do the merciful thing. Even as recently as an hour ago.

And yet here he is up on his feet, with a little occasional help from me, grazing, wanting to stand, wanting to walk on his own. And I have all the time in the world to stay with him, picking him back up every time he flops down, moving him to the nicer parts of the lawn, giving him round the clock care like he needs...

Sometimes the universe does know what it's doing πŸ₯°πŸ’•

Videos in comments, photos are nested with random farm pics so don't scroll if you don't want to see tapewormy p**p at the end πŸ‘€
