    Kidding season at sweet horizon minis

    I personally like cold creek minis and cold creek farms. Are you just going to be doing minis or do you do other things? If you do chicken,cows garden ect. It would make more sense for it to be farms or acres

    Cami is getting big and her udder is starting to fill pretty good! While I was out in the pen I saw her stretching and pawing some. No up/down, ligaments are still there and easily found no signs of labor. She was bred 3 times last year so she has 3 "due dates". March 6th, March 12th and April's...

    Sorry for the goopy hind end. Here is her udder with a 10.5hour fill at 8days fresh. She was easily the most well behaved (besides yelling) doe I've milked. Especially for a FF! She also has much easier teats to milk than any of my other does that I've milked! (Her teat is fine it's just post...

    Kidding season at sweet horizon minis

    I tried that with her and my doe Cami. Both will only come for food (atleast that's how Lillie was prior to kidding) for the longest while Lillie wouldn't even eat out of my hand and I spent a minimum of an hour everyday with her since she was 8 weeks,offering apples carrots the occasional...
