Happy Easter!!

Willow has graced the farm with two beautiful little girls! Both are thriving and spunky. They nursed in less than an hour and are quickly learning to use those legs.

Couldn't have asked for a better way to end the day 🥰

PSA for new goat owners - a cautionary story.

A little over a year ago we bought registerable twin F7 doelings from a large, well-reviewed breeder as bottle babies; the dam and sire are both registered. This year both doelings kidded and each produced a set of twins with double teats, this is a disqualifying defect for registration with MDGA and future breeding. After reaching out to the current owner of the dam, they confirmed the dam herself has double teats. She should never have been registered or used for breeding. These doelings were intended to be foundation stock for our herd, so this is a big loss emotionally and for our breeding program.

We thought we’d done our homework, but this taught us to be even more thorough: always inspect dams in person when able, confirm teat/conformation and health records, ask for registration papers, request references, and get written guarantees or return agreements. Breeders are responsible for knowing their animals and breeding to standard.

Be cautious this kidding season.
