Kids for Sale!!

So far this year I have had 4 kids born, all boys.  Look below for adorable pictures and details if you are interested in purchasing one or more kids! Come meet the kids to choose which one you would like!  Just email me and we can set up a time. 

Snicker and Doodle - born March 2nd

 The kids I am selling are $90 for a pair or $50 for one.  They are all the sweetest little things and LOVE people.  They will make great companions, therapy pets, or showmanship goats.  They will be weaned and ready to leave the farm the beginning of May. Both Snicker and Doodle are disbudded and wethered.

The kid pictured below was born on March 12th and will be weaned and ready to leave the middle of May. He does not have an official name yet, although each of us has our own name for him :-)

Once again, if you would like to come over and meet them, just let me know! Warning, they will steal your heart and you won't be able to leave without one :-)

What am I passionate about?

I have entered an essay contest, our prompt question was 'what are you passionate about'?  Watch my video to hear the answer!  The video is only about 3min long, I hope you enjoy it!!  Also, while you're over there watching it, I'd love your vote!! :) http://scholarships.collegeplus.org/essays/30-passionate

Fiasco Farm

If you are interested in learning about goat care, breeding, feeding, almost anything goat related I would encourage you to visit FiascoFarms.  This is a great resource and a very easy site to navigate!  I get most of my information from her websites.  Once I tried to just google my problem and get advice from someone else, her blog came up first on the search results!

After a month of literally dragging Lark around she now walks wonderfully on her halter! 

Fern was born on Tuesday, February 4th.  

 She is growing so fast!...both Mirae and Fern :-)

 One of our turkeys is bigger than the smaller goats! 

A chick right after hatching

I just set my first hatch of eggs for 2014!!  Hopefully, we'll have bunches of chicks in about 21 days!  This is the first time I've tried dry incubation, I have heard lots of good things about hatching rates rising considerably with this method.  I'll let you know how it goes!  

 And...a picture of my adorable little helper!  Mirae got up early with me and went out to help milk Penny and feed the other goats and calves.
