Found her new home 😍

Her buckling is being weaned tomorrow and she can leave at any time.

Roles Ranch S Cappuccino is looking for a new pasture. She can go once her buckling is weaned on May 25th. I would like to see her as a family milker or pet, potentially a 4H project.

She is a first freshener. I am hand milking her once a day and getting about a quart. Her udder is well attached, but her teats are smaller and further apart than I’d like to see in my herd.

ADGA registered FF doe in milk
Can go with or without her buckling

Dam’s udder in pics
Sire’s DNA contains Alpha Casein B/B, meaning he passes on the gene for the best milk for cheese making.

This doe has smaller teats than I’d like for hand milking, but her udder is nice and her dam is my best milker.

Buy eggs from your neighbors with hens!

Fun fact Friday.
Let’s talk about eggs.
(Pictured is a chicken and duck egg)

For one did you know that a lot of commercial chickens have their beaks cut to not allowing pecking of each other in confinement? This is considered “ok” (have you ever watched a chicken try to eat with a messed up beak?)

Cage free - this simply means they don’t live in a cage. But what defines a cage? Packed in a metal building with limited space still feels like a cage if you ask me.

Free range - sounds good but this simply means they must have access to the outdoors. But how much access?

Antibiotic and hormone free eggs - no eggs contain these. Just like meat is not run through a processor without proper withdrawal time for antibiotics same with milk.

Organic - honestly all this means is they are getting organic feed. What about their well being?

Vegetarian fed - we’ll then they for sure aren’t free range nor are they eating their natural diet. I’m not sure how this label is even a thing since a chicken will eat a mouse, lizard, bug, anything that walks past it that it can catch. How could one be sure s chicken never ate such thing? (Confinement?)

Now the whole orange yolk ordeal - if you raise chickens you can tell when your birds are foraging well based on the color of their yolks. One would think the same about store bought eggs but egg producers have caught on and feed dried marigolds to enrich the color of the yolk without actually enriching the chickens lives.

So what’s the best option? Buy from a neighbor who’s raising hens in their backyard. Even if they are confined to a coop and run i still would almost bet they are more humanely cared for than the ones being mass produced. I’d almost bet money everyone has someone within a reasonable distance of them that would sell some of their eggs it just might take some looking depending on the regulations where you live.

Three truckloads of mulch later, and the garden is ready for planting! We will surround it with a fence next weekend to keep the deer out.

We hope to have enough fresh vegetables to share with our customers in the summer/fall!

Friends! I know winter ❄️ just ended so most of you aren’t thinking about your plans for thanksgiving, but we are raising free range turkeys 🦃 again this year. We have been raising them for several years and last year we didn’t because of the move, so I bought a butterball, and let me tell you - there is NO comparison.

Our thanksgiving turkeys typically weigh between 10 and 20 lbs (though we have had a 26 pounder in the past) and we charge $4/lb. They will be processed and delivered to your door 🚪 FRESH never frozen a couple days before thanksgiving.

Because we don’t feed organic grain 🌾 , these turkeys are not considered “organic”; but rest assured they will not be treated with hormones or antibiotics like your average butterball.

Thank you for supporting your local farmers! We love knowing where our food comes from and how it is treated before it hits the table. Our turkeys are treated like pets, they free range on 5+ acres of sunny 🌞 pasture and are super happy for their entire lives.

Let me know if you’d like to be added to our list 🙂
