Sorry It’s been so long since I posted… again. We’ve been kept really busy the last few months, selling soap at craft shows, as well as buying, selling, and showing goats!

      We did really well at the last two shows and came away with both Alpine Best of Breed as well as a Reserved Best of Breed in the Nubian category and a Best in Show for our Alpine doe Fiona. I also got to help show goats at the Oklahoma State Fair! It was fun to be out there showing and I learned a lot about judging and showing dairy goats!

    We’ve also been having a lot of fun choosing bloodlines for our 2009 kids! Mostly we’ve used our awesome buck Sam on the does, but we’ve also had the chance to use some really nice Nubian bucks for what should be outstanding 2009 kids! Unfortunately, we won’t be able to keep most of them because we’ve got to keep our numbers down. 

      The newest addition to our dairy herd are the Toggenburg does, Margarita, Klassique and Dazzle. I am so excited to have them in our herd, and I hope to show them this coming year (2009). I also got the opportunity to borrow an awesome Toggenburg buck, so I’ll even have a few purebred babies next spring!

Well that’s all for now, thanks for reading!
