Something good out of tragedy

February 18, 2021February 18, 2021Leave a comment

Y’all know that we want to milk our goats. I’ve bought all of the supplies I need so I’m completely prepared for it, minus having the experience. I’ve watched countless YouTube videos on the subject. Watching is how I learn. We got our dairy goats, a couple that are in milk and one that would … Continue reading Something good out of tragedy

I said I wouldn’t, but I did

I can hear your snickering all the way over here in New Mexico! I know I said I wouldn’t, but I did it anyway. I got more goats AND we added sheep. BUT THIS IS IT! I PROMISE! Don’t hold your breathe on that though, because I promise you tomorrow if I find another great … Continue reading I said I wouldn’t, but I did

Bonnie Update

This girl has taken us for a ride the last few weeks. She started showing us signs of being in distress. I thought, well maybe she’s in labor? She had vaginal discharge, looked uncomfortable, constantly pawing the ground and yawning. All normal signs of labor for goats. When nothing happened, I knew it was something … Continue reading Bonnie Update

The start of our dairy herd

January 5, 2021Leave a comment

When I first thought of having goats, I thought of milking and all of the wonderful dairy products we could make. Our first goat as you know was a Boer with traces of Nubian. From there I just jumped into the Boer breed because there is a market in our area for them. I still … Continue reading The start of our dairy herd

Moving animals, plus two Goats

You read that right. We moved the goats and pony (mini horse) to a new patch, plus we have two new goats! I came across a fair deal for a wether and doe dairy goat who seems to be an older gal. They are both very friendly and very large. The goats probably weigh as … Continue reading Moving animals, plus two Goats

Our Herd of Boer Does

December 1, 2020December 1, 20202 Comments

This year we decided that Goats were going to be one of the livestock we raise. Even though goats can be a hand full, they thrive in our area. I used to have a battle the weeds mind set until I observed firsthand that there is almost no weed that grows that can escape the … Continue reading Our Herd of Boer Does

We will be upgrading our property FINALLY with a barn, shop and fencing! These three things, as you all know, we desperately have needed! Not to mention, we were able to purchase our dream tractor after many years of it being part of our goal! AAAAAAND we purchased a lofted cabin for yours truly, to … Continue reading Tractor, New Structures and Fencing

Free Pallet Goat Shelter

November 18, 2019Leave a comment

Our wannabe farm is starting to feel like a farm. We've added another goat to our place and she is such a sweetheart. The farm we got her from use to show her, so she has been handled amply. She may also have been bred and will be due in March 2020 if the breeding … Continue reading Free Pallet Goat Shelter
