Alana is a 50% Kiko. She has about 45% Boer in her and about 6% Nubian.

Yeah he's a heritage turkey so he's big but he can still run and fly real good. And he follows you around. Most of the time a real good kick (if you can hit him. It's hard because he's quick) keeps him away.

Loved the pictures, they are all great, I don't even have a favorite, Hope the girls give you twins, and the dogs are so easy on the eye's, I sure wish someone would give moses a hair cut..:lol: as his bangs are so long, I wouldn't dream of letting my boy run around with that much hair in his face..:plbb, I really like all the color you have, keeps it from being so boring. Lots of birds in pictures too....all your missing is a pig :D, Bacon and breakfast sauage is great.

Love the photos!!!! All beautiful animals, and really...two sheep in the mix makes these photos more balanced, right? ;)

So sorry I have dog allergies and not enough acres to justify LGDs...yes...plural...I could never just pick one breed :p

Love the photo of Moses and the other goat watching those dogs play...too cute!

I am pretty sure I'll get twins from all. Well at least twins. Arianna was in pretty good condition and was over a year when bred so no excuse for her even though it is her first kidding. Sis already has her one strike against her but I KNOW she has more than one in there so she should be good. Alana has had triplets all three times but she was a bit thin when bred so I would not be surprised to have twins. I think they will all have more than one. Really hope so too!

As for the color, I really love all the color here and color makes pretty goats but my favorite colors are actually all black and all white. But Moses is the most handsome I've ever seen. ;) And Sis, when she stands in the sun at a distance, she is so pretty. Really beautiful.

Yep, lots of bird. Somewhere around 200 I believe. And yes! A pig! Not really the room here but one day I'm getting me a pig. Would love some LB's like Royd and Heritage.

bon - Yep. Balanced. When are you going to be balanced? ;)

I can't even do that. In a perfect world I would have Anatolain, GP, Kengal, Akbash, TM. I love love all those breeds. LGD's are the best dogs in the world. Such a joy they are.

LOVE LOVE LOVE all the photos! Moses is as handsome as ever! LOVE his hair!
That tom turkey can sense the "man" in you! My Boris would chase/attack this local boy around here everytime he'd come NEAR our yard. Boris NEVER had a problem with me. Although he DID chase the Evil One around. I guess he just liked me cause I fed them! I MISS MY TURKEYS!

Now you have to post some photos of the new kids! Oh...and is that cashmere (downy undercoat) on Ariana's neck? It looks SOOO soft (& curly). I think Arianna and Kiko Joe (Bridge's boy) would like each other! ;)

And you're YOUNG?! Man...I AM getting old! No wonder the panty hose and pink heels aren't your "thing"....just wait! :th

Well what time does Straw get off of work? Maybe you can talk SWEETLY to Arianna and convince her to wait for "daddy" to come home! Good luck!

OH that would be a shame if Straw missed it! :fl Hold on there Arianna!

I LOVE the pictures! Everybody is so cute> I love C1, Badger, Gwen and Lil Seh. Those are my faves. Gwen does look like the lilac color. The dogs are a hoot! Especially the pics with them wanting to go into the "birthing station." :lol: Nice job on those btw.

Alana is what our Kiko Joe/boer goats will probably turn out like. Pretty cool! :thumbsup

Well I just checked Ari... she is rather Large in her parts but not really seeing much else...I don't think her udder is "ripe" yet either.
Her and Sis look like they have dropped though.

I'll check her later... if I get too tired I may just bring that goat right on in...she acts like a dog anyway. ;)

Straw should be back around 10:30-11 I guess.
