GOATS
We have 2 goats (Aesha - Oberhasli cross, and Danny - purebred Kinder); Aesha is confirmed pregnant, and I'm hoping she'll drop a doe kid that we'll keep with her momma. They will be the producing pair moving forward.
They have access to 2 IBC totes that were converted into goat huts, with pine shavings and waste hay (too stemmy for the goats to appreciate eating) as bedding, and metal roofing that provides plenty of shelter from sun, rain and snow. They have a heated water trough, free choice hay and loose minerals, and get alfalfa pellets, especially in the colder months or when there are milking does. They roam our "farm yard" at will, and enjoy foraging on the surrounding blackberry canes.

AESHA (ay-shuh)
(Heart's Quest Aesha) DOB: 4/29/2019 SIRE: Fajita (Kiko x Boer) DAM: Heart's Quest Maya (Deadpool x Ramya) Aesha is a gentle and quiet girl, and loves getting attention from her people. She went through a bit of a chubby kid phase, but is now growing well and has sleeked out beautifully. |
DANNY
(Dogwood Acres Kinders Danny Boy) DOB: 5/17/2015 SIRE: Dogwood Acres Kinders Elvis DAM: Dogwood Acres Kinders Dixie Danny is a little unsure of people, and prefers to keep his distance, with the clear exception of breakfast time. He is a polite powerhouse, and seems to have no voice, which is a plus as far as I'm concerned. |
