Like many people, we started out two doelings, and after they had their fluffy bouncing babies.........you know what happens. Goats are addicting y'all! This year we bred four does and ending up with 11 cute, big-eyed, snuggley, little fuzz balls.
Our herd had: Twins: 2 Triplets: 1 Quadruplets:1 This is our first set of quads! Aren't they adorable? I sure think so.

As I see it, when you raise goats, the seasons are not divided into traditional spring, summer, autumn and winter, but are instead divided into
kidding, showing, breeding and waiting. Depending on your herd and location, the proportions of each season might be a little different, but in northern California, our show season usually runs from May through September. We recently went to the 1st annual Mother Lode Dairy Goat Association show, and we had an absolute blast! Showing is really exciting, especially when you have nice animals who place good, but even when our does place not-so-good, we still learn a lot and have loads of fun. |
