Happy Saturday. We are still in a drought here in SETX and it’s DRY. There are more wildfires in TX but not close to us, thank goodness.
We fenced off a new area for the ruminates to graze. The goats were much more adventurous than the cows and found the new expansion first. This will help with rotational grazing as it opens up around 7-8 more acres to graze. I’m trying to keep the girls low maintenance as possible by feeding them less grain but having them rely on the pasture as much as possible. Majority of them are holding their condition well just on pasture and minerals. Their main field has been grazed down and needs a rest especially due to the lack of rain and high temps.

Texas was either a flood this year or a drought so you have to roll with the punches here. Hope you all are doing ok!

Breeding season begins late this month for alpines (Oberhasli), Nubians, and NDGs for spring 2027.

PSA SETX folks. Monday morning update.
We need the rain. Not so much the flooding. So plan carefully!
You never know if the storm will get worse or dissipate but we really could use a good, long rain here west of Houston. Get your feed and supplies early on!

A beautiful evening refilling hay bales for the cows.
The jerseys are lovely but mischievous - Bubbles stole the twine from tractor and tried to eat it immediately.
We don’t usually have to feed round bales in summer but it’s been dry this month and the grass has gone dormant.

We were on vacation a week in the lovely state of Maine and came back to Texas playing the Sahara.

We had to put out some of our winter round bale stock !

That’s why in early spring it’s best to stock up on that affordable, abundant fresh hay to get you through not only winter but a summer drought too.
Stay cool y’all and happy Sunday!!

Happy Sunday, all.
It’s been non eventful here- but in a good way.
I am working on slowly flushing the girls for the 2028 kidding season. They are staying pretty well conditioned primarily on pasture with some supplementation- which we will gradually bump up over time.

They have t minus 60 days before breeding begins. You cannot flush them too fast otherwise you’ll cause founder and laminitis if not worse.

Hoping we get more triplets and twins instead of singles this season. The goat market has been steady and we are optimistic that it will hold strong in the spring.
We also would like to build onto the herd next year and may add on different, outside genetics. It’s been YEARS since we kept our own or brought in new dairy does.

We would like to begin the kidding season in mid March so if anyone wants to add on some RCR genetics, keep us in mind!

Happy Friday yall!

Remi posing while the duck feeder helps feeding the water fowl. This is our upgraded set up for the water fowl before they get to go to the big pond.

In Waller county Texas, it actually feels nice in the evening- cooler breeze, drier air, no mosquitoes.

Super weird for the summer! Especially for an El Niño happening.
I can get used to it. Stay cool for the weekend you all!

Happy Sunday.

It’s a lovely and calm morning in SETX but the flies are back at it. No screwworm but the usual horse and biting horn flies.

The girls mostly enjoy their fly preventative. They are loving the summer grass and staying thicc with low feed demands.

Here comes big Bertha!!! The tropical depression everyone in the gulf is talking about. So far no crazy winds- just more rain.

We were getting JUST dry enough to start mowing the fields and doing more ditch work… the place is overgrown with nutsedge and small brush trees.

It looks like none of that will be happening this weekend.
You all stay dry and safe and take care of your family and critters!
