It's been a busy 1.5 weeks kidding the fall bred does! Thankfully all the does delivered smoothly, assisted with 1 delivery, all the kids were born alive and healthy. Does are all healthy and great moms! After hefty losses last fall, this has been rejuvenating! Downside the blue buck stork landed hard this fall! 12 bucks, 4 does total.

Naughty Goats Acres Firecracker sired all the fall kids.

Crow River Fainters Maisie- 3 bucks
Naughty goats acres Reese- 2 bucks, 1 doe
Naughty goats acres Kerfuffle- 1 doe
Crow River Fainters Zulu- 1 buck, 1 doe
Crow River Fainters Zara- 3 bucks

There are 4 more does left to kid. Anticipating November thru January kid timing. We will be monitoring does closely as we don't know exact due dates.

Negative screen results for CAE. CL, and Johnes once again! Yay!

Our last Oeltjenbruns Farms Zac baby arrived this morning. Matinee had a very nice single doeling.

12/17/2022

We got the pens pushed clean from the snowfall and shelters re-bedded bracing for the cold heading our way.

10/16/2022

Had our first fall kidding yesterday. A rough delivery for Maisie and had to assist pulling the black one out as he is large and was very stuck. Both bucklings and mama are doing well.

The rest of the does should be due late November to early December. For now these boys will get abundant snuggles and attention.

Once again I am terrible at remembering to take pictures for a show!

The North Star Myotonic Classic was a huge successful event this weekend. Thank you to all who have supported Sarah Oeltjenbruns from Oeltjenbruns' Farms Myotonics and myself along the planning, set up, show and take down. Our herd did decent within their classes, along with Crow River Fainters Ambush winning a Reserve Junior Champion Buck and is now on his way to Texas with Janice Foster (thank you again Janice!).

It's been a busy 5 days and looking forward to quieter days and prepping for fall kidding to kickoff in October!

We have 2 myotonic wethers that are looking a new pasture before they go to market. Contact us for more information.

The quads were doing well this morning after their rough entry to life yesterday. They all had good birth weights at 4.8, 5.0, 5.4 and 5.6 lbs. Poor mama Creed looks so thin after dropping over 20 lbs of babies.

04/02/2022

Early start to the morning. Creed started sign of labor yesterday evening and was continuing to have troubles delivering through the night.... so 430 this morning I stepped in and helped untangle/twist and reposition kids to deliver. 4 healthy,live, good sized quads and mama doing well. 2 bucks 2 does. Better pics later as im off to work for a 12 hr shift.

03/31/2022

Long awaited arrival for new kids on the farm this morning. Woke up to first timer CRF black magic having twin does unassisted and dried off. Sired by Oeltjenbruns Farms Zac. Still patiently waiting on 3 more does to kid..... at some point.

03/27/2022

Well it happened again... we added 3 new does to the herd..... introducing Oeltjenbruns Farms Oxana, Zyaih, and Rhonda. Sarah needs help with naming goats in the future lol. We are excited to watch their growth and development as we bring their bloodlines into the herd.

02/22/2022

We have 2 wethers available. Please pm for more details.

02/19/2022

We added some naughty goat acres girls to our herd today. Thank you Bob and Colleen for the opportunity! Reese and Kerfluffel are settled in for their adjustment period before joining the rest of the herd.

12/16/2021

After a rough batch of fall kidding and a few tough losses to our herd, Buck Creek Hope delivered triplets..... of course all bucks... but we are thankful kids and mama are all ok.

The junior does lineup for a spotlight shot. Maisie, Caroline & Moxie

Baby Arrival! A few days ago hottie blessed us with a set of triplets. 2 bucks, 1 doe. Smooth unassisted delivery!

09/23/2021

Fall kidding started the other day. Fantasia kidded 2 doelings..... unfortunately we had a very rough delivery and lost our doe and doeling, but saved the 2nd doeling. So now we have a bottle baby. Farming is not always happy endings, but we are thankful that we did not lose all 3.

04/03/2021

Happy to say biosecurity screens for cae, cl, and johnes all negative!

We confirmed that our first freshener, Creed is due for May kids. She was supposed to kid in December, but the breeding didn't take.

02/14/2021

Happy valentine's day. Guys, hope you got your special someone the right gift this year! 🤣

01/30/2021

These little does are enjoying life in the cozy warm shed.... until they get moved out to the herd.

Late night yesterday. First time mom flirt had a rough delivery and needed assistance delivering 2 bucks. Seems like mom is doing OK this morning but we will be watching her closely.

Hope finally released her hostages as I have been monitoring her prolapse struggles and toxemia for the last week. Hope had a nice delivery for 2 doelings and 1 buck.

01/01/2021

Happy new year! Someone is not ready to get up and go for the new year just yet 🤣.
