Time for another random goat fact with Broken A Ranch

Goats are natural browsers, not grazers! Their diet should include a variety of browse like leaves and twigs, high-quality hay, fresh water, and a good mineral source to help keep them healthy and thriving.

Good nutrition = happy, healthy goats!

We woke up this morning to find one of our big trees down after last night’s storm. Thankfully, everyone at Broken A Ranch is safe, and none of our animals were injured. It could have been much worse.

It’s always amazing how quickly things can change. One minute everything looks normal, and the next a tree that’s stood for years is lying on the ground.

Unfortunately, cleanup will have to wait until after we get home from work tonight. Until then, we’ll be checking on things and counting our blessings that the damage was limited.

Did anyone else get hit by the storms? We’d love to hear how everyone made out.

Goats are naturally curious and playful animals. Play isn’t just fun for them—it helps kids build balance, develop coordination, and learn important social skills!

Never underestimate the power of play!

Goats are social animals and form strong bonds with their herd. They can actually become stressed and depressed if they are left alone for too long.

A little updated pasture picture of our three babies. ❤️

These three are getting bigger by the day, two heifers and one bull calf, and they have officially hit the stage where they spend more time running, playing, and causing trouble than standing still.

Seeing healthy calves out on green pasture with their mommas never gets old around here. This little group has been doing great, and we are pretty proud of them.

Which one would you pick as your favorite?

Broken A Ranch is extremely excited to welcome 8 new ducks to the farm. 🦆

We were so happy when someone asked if we would be interested in them, because of course the answer was yes. 😂

They are settling in well already, and we are excited to add them to our growing crew here at the ranch. Around here, there is always something going on, and we would not have it any other way.
