Well it is weigh-in time. To keep in the spirit of changing things I think I need to change their milk to add more fat.

I might need to go to the store and buy some butter milk and add that to the milk to make it richer but it is so darn expensive but they sure are worth it.

Oh and yes Kim a new doe wait till you see her LOL

Well I went and got my new doe today. I am really excited to finally have a full blooded doe. Some of you make know her. I got Freckles from Kim Or her registered name is Newtown Farms Eileen. She seems to be fitting in pretty well with the herd. Here are some pictures of her and the herd today. She is the biggest doe we have. She was born 2/12/2006

She is the one alone on the left. This is my goats summer camp at my dads.

Give her a big old smooch and tell her I miss her.



That is really a nice looking group you have, Rog.

I actually got her to sniff my hand today so that's progress and I am pretty happy right now with my herd. I am done getting any goats now. I told myself I am out of space I am not aloud to get anyone new till someone else gets sold.

In other news we actually cut some hay today and this is by far the earliest we have ever done that. I think my dad just wanted to be able to say we have made hay on April. Well Have a Happy Easter.

So I was interested to see the farm where my new doe freckles came from. So I looked the breeder up online last night. She is from illinois and I ended up emailing the breeder last night. He seems really cool and was happy to hear she was doing well and I sent him some pictures. He said she was originally sold with 4 other does and a buck as a breeding group and out of his first buck that lived to be 12. He said she has some of the best genetics he has ever had. He has also had some amazing show goats with some becoming ennobled so the fact he likes her genetics makes me feel even better. So it was fun to hear from him.
