I have some sweet little boys that will be ready after weaning!

All have been disbudded and can be weathered if desired. They all also have flashy white spots and at least a couple moonspots.

Dam raised but handled daily.

Annually clean tested herd and will be up to date on CDT before leaving.

Posting something a lot more vulnerable (and long) than what I had originally planned today…

I don’t share a ton of my personal life here or really anywhere online so a lot of you may not know but I welcomed my first (human lol) kid into the world this January. The beginning of his life out here came much earlier than expected and I got to learn how to be a mom for the first month with my baby connected to wires and IVs while also trying to recover from a major abdominal surgery. Thankfully he’s well and healthy and amazing

On top of that, either from the stress of all that plus the sleep deprivation or maybe just the postpartum hormones, I ended up having a pretty bad flare for some autoimmune thing that I never knew I had. It’s resulted in me struggling to breath with pretty mild exertion (about the same as when I was pregnant), joint pain in most joints but especially my hands and knees, and some other random but less bothersome issues. I’m currently in the stage of trying to figure out what’s going on.

And even though this has made life extremely challenging sometimes, I keep pushing through because it’s what makes me happy. I know the products that I make here are things that can keep me healthier as well. So if I seem a little less involved, I have good reasons. I may still end up downsizing some in the near future

I know I’m not the only one who continues to homestead at some level with autoimmune or chronic pain conditions so please leave a comment for tip of how you get through the hard! Is there anything that helps you keep going through a flare? Is there anything that helps you stay present with your young kids while still taking care of your farm?

Fresh delivery!

Vanta delivered 2 little buckling. She kindly waited until late morning when the sun was up and shining ☀️ Both are very strong and up nursing quickly. I also love the cute brown moonspots on the black one. When I saw her udder this morning I knew there had to be more than one in there even though she was pretty slim.

If anyone is looking for a new dude for their herd send me a message! Their dad Waterloo Pond Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats Cadbury has some great genetics behind him and is throwing stunning kids. 4/5 kids this year are bucklings 🙃 but at least there will be lots of cheese and ice-cream!

What a great way to end the day. Loving on baby goats and listening to the birdsong.

As mentioned yesterday here is more of Twix and her ADORABLE little triplets who are all doing great.

Twix has been a great mom again and kidded with no assistance needed. She had 2 little bucklings and an adorable doe (the darker one). All with dark moonspots like their dad and white from both parents.

One difference I have noticed from last year is how much of a difference genetics play on temperament! I am so thankful for Waterloo Pond Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats for trusting me with Cadbury (the buck I bought from them last year)! These babies are incredibly sweet, calm and easy to handle even though they are being dam raised. Last year I remember chasing around the little ones even days after they were born. I can’t wait to see how they grow and he helps with not just temperament but body and udder structure!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the hard working moms out there.

Twix had her triples yesterday (I’ll share more of them soon) and already had the face of a tired mom lol
