Heidi, our little queen goat, LOVES Cheerios.
I mean, seriously LOVES them. See?
The other four girls are really not so interested in them. I have some ideas from here that I'm going to try with them now, though, so I'll report back! :)
Thank you, Henrietta23! I must admit, although I have a love of all things vintage/retro, it was not my original idea. The farmer we bought them came up with the idea - Ginger had two sisters (she was a quad, had one brother named Gilligan) and they were MaryAnn and Lovie - but they were already...

She's spunky and is a quad, and a cousin to MaryAnn - their...
Our little girls (Togg/Alpine and Togg/LaMancha mixes) are 9 and 10 weeks old. They self-weaned over the past week or so - just not interested in the bottle any longer, because they are filling up on grain ration and alfalfa hay. They are drinking water really well, too. Yay!
We are in the...
I've been on BYC for a few months now, and we got our first goat kids about a month ago. We live in Tyrone Township, MI, south of Fenton and Flint, on 14 acres, and plan to grow our herd over time through acquisitions and breeding. For now, we just have two girls, one is a Togg/Alpine mix named...
I'm clearly late to the game here, and perhaps you've already located a class, but we took one over Valentine's Day weekend at a farm in North Branch, MI. Not sure if that is a viable option for you or not - but you can contact Melissa at mejay57@aol.com and see if she has any upcoming...
