These does, mostly maidens, just finished 35 day mating to six different bucks.
Finished weaning our 2024 born bucks today. This group are 12 weeks to 7 months. Pleasingly they all get along with no bullying or intimidation. Amazing weights for the reds. 6 to 7 months 50 to 61.5kg and 5 months 44 to 53.5kg.
Just weaned bucks are introduced to the older brothers and dad's.
Cleveland Ziggy and Cleveland Zach's five month old daughters. With an average weight of 39kg and top weight 44.5kg they're off to a good start. CLVRUR301 CLVRUR305
Baled some hay yesterday and the bucks got to pick at the leftovers. They're one to two years and looking good and are now available. (We are in Australia.)
Finally we have had some good rain. 35 ml of gentle soaking rain then winds, hail and torrential rain. The goats were all safe in their shelters.
Young red does first encounter with quad bike.
The bucks are looking great now they have some good feed. The big fella is Cleveland Loki (3 1/2 years).
Really taken with these recently weaned bucklings.
