Moulins little buckskin boy was king of the ‘mountain’ this chilly morning. 🙌

3 bucks for Wild Child and Paper Boy 🙃

I’m not sure about the teensiest one, and the ‘middle’ size ain’t looking super thrifty to me either.

The big chonker mom is smooching will most likely be staying though, as Wild Child is one of my best girls.

MooMoo loves her babies so much 🥹

MooMoo, aka Moulin, had twin bucks by Paperboy today. (I definitely ordered girls 🤣)

Her udder is lovely, and I would consider the swiss marked as a possibly herd sire to retain, but I’m not allowed to retain anything currently sooooo- He will be 👀 for a 🏡.

Can go with his buckskin brother as wethers as well.
I’m happy to pull them after next week and bottle break them if the new 🏡 wanted them as bottle kids too.

It’s a girl!
This is my Exotic x Instafamous daughter, who I’ve been eagerly awaiting kids from.

This little girl is a Paperboy daughter 🙂
She’s staying

****they have both found homes****

I keep putting this off, but things aren’t getting better yet, so I have to be realistic. 🥺

Of course, Callie scuffed up her leg this morning, and while awaiting this (surface level but still aggravating) cut to heal, and finalizing paperwork for her foals- she is seeking a new zip code for a heck of a deal due to impending job loss on my end and her bug allergies.

PRE Buckskin mare 15.3 HH Colemana II, is a 2014 model-
She is sound, loads, clips, ties, baths, lives barefoot and has great feet- she does need treats if you need to give her shots, but is otherwise good for the vet and farrier.
(Unless you are my old favorite repro vet who retired from large animals, she truly had a grudge against her 🫣)

She is an Excellent broodmare, catches the first time with AI, uncomplicated foaling, and wonderful mother who makes HUGE correct foals.

She sadly has developed a major allergy to Florida bug life, and with my department being totally collapsed in Jan and on the job hunt, I’ve got to move her along.

Lightly started under saddle, she’s been bitted up and worked with saddle and bridle - and that work will continue as I have time.
She’s sensitive, but very sweet, and eager to please and remembers things well, and has been really fun to start under saddle.

She is not a horse you can bully into what you want her to do however, she gets anxious and will try to leave.

Does have history of right hind inner hock degloving, which she is and has remained sound on, but the area remains difficult to totally remove proud flesh and get it too totally hair over due to location, exacerbated by her itching. 😬

Lowest on the pecking order, comes when called, and enjoys attention and pampering, and will run to you when you call for her.
Highly food motivated.

Fly sheet is current photo, and how she has to live down here in Wellington/Loxahatchee area now, could stand to add more weight, but she spends her time itching instead of eating despite multiple interventions, and her 💰 reflects that.

Other two photos are of her with one of her previous fillies, and her lovely coat when she’s not trying to itch her life away.

She will be in the high 4’s / OBO to the right home, and is currently open by my choice. Current coggins, shots, and feet done last week. Her 2024 double cream filly, ‘Pringle’, is also seeking a new zip code.

Thelma and Louise are heading to their new forever home today.

I’m so sad for me, but happy for them.
They are sweet girls and will have a home here if ever their new mom can’t keep them.

Freckle nose here is still looking for a new home however, and will return back to the farm once weaned.

10/19/2024

And Thelma had her baby! It’s a boy! 💙💙💙

I had ‘ordered’ a girl, but he’s big and strong and so pretty I can’t be upset.

Thelma and Louise most likely have a wonderful home lined up, but the new owners only want them.
I’ll make a decision in the next few days, but realistically, I don’t Need to keep him, so he will also be 👀 for a 🏡.

10/19/2024

Better pictures in the morning, but Fayde and Paperboy had Buck/doe twins tonight.
Both will be 👀 for new 🏡

****sale pending****

Thelma and Louise, roughly 5-8 years old. (Age speculated off teeth and history of sale.)

Bonded pair of paint mini donkeys jenny’s, can Not be separated.
Both unregistered, and pregnant. 🤰

Thelma is the mostly white one, and she is also the slightly taller (approx 34 inch) and also friendlier of the two. Will halter and lead, but isn’t thrilled about it unless food is involved.

She is due ✨ any ✨day with a foal by our NLP Jack, Henry.
Excellent mother, foals unassisted with no complications, trusts people with her babies and makes very friendly foals. All have been spotted/painted as well.

Louise is the one with more darker coloring, and is smaller, (aprox 32-33 inches) and she is shy and worried unless cookies are involved.
Even with cookies, she is difficult to halter, and leads like an anvil at the best of times. Louise also foals easily and is a great mother. She gave us the most Beautiful Jenny last year that I still regret selling a little 🤣. She is confirmed pregnant via ultrasound, and looks to be due either early Dec or late Jan, but exact date is difficult as they are out with the jack 24/7.

I do not wish to sell them, but recent job loss forces me too. I love both of them, and they beg for treats and attention every night and complain if I skip out. 🤣

I am offering them as a pair, and including the (literally due any day Soon) teensy cute baby doneky for 💵4️⃣5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣- however, they can’t leave until she has the baby, as I don’t want to stress her out with a move and risk her or the baby’s life.

Would also consider discussing with new owner a lesser price if she has a girl that I would retain.

In return for me keeping the girl foal from Thelma, the price would be 💵3️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ for both, and would include service to Henry or our new Jack depending on the new owners wish.

Looking for new pastures, Matilda and Henry-
They are bonded NLP (no light point) mini donkeys. They are not registered, and age approx 10 years old each.

We have had them for 5 years, and are only offering them now as a pair because we would like to keep some of Henry’s girls, and therefore need a new jack.

Henry is an excellent little farm jack (boy), and is attentive and protective of his little herd. He is friendly, and leads and ties. He can be caught easily and comes when called and loves to be scratched and petted. Approx 33-34 inches at the shoulder.

He’s fine with any animal (we have mini goats, mini horses, chickens, and full size horses as well as dogs and barn cats) as long as he’s introduced to them first.

He will absolutely stomp strange dogs/animals on sight. (This includes newborn baby goats, however, once introduced, he is a good protector of them.)

Matilda is a jenny (girl), and is smaller than Henry, and is also much shyer. Approx 32 inches at the shoulder.
Excellent mother, she has foaled once a year with no assistance needed and always has big healthy babies. She isn’t mean or nasty, just afraid. I use a stall to catch her, and once caught, she will lead, but can be like walking your pet rock without another human to walk behind to encourage her forward.

Can *Not* be separated, they are tightly bonded. Matilda last foaled in May 2023, and while they are in a herd setting, so I don’t have exact dates, she is pregnant (confirmed via US) and should be due again around May 2024-July 2024 with their next foal.

Asking 💵3️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣.
Open to offers- sorry no trades on anything that eats 💁‍♀️ (per my husband 🫣)

While these soaps have no goat milk in them to be able to offer completely vegan soaps, our hard working girls have lots of milk in the rest of this release.

The release will go live tonight at 8 pm EST at www.cheekygoatsoap.com

Hooray! It’s the day of the Summer Release!

Sneak Peeks are still up for now on the website, I’ll take them down around 6:15/6:30 pm est to prep for the Cheeky Charm Gertie folks to have their first pass at 7:00 pm est.

From 7:00-8:00 pm EST the page will be password protected, after 8 pm it will open for everyone 🙌

I don’t have liquid soap on this release as I didn’t have a chance to make more with all the JFTS soaps I’ve been working hard on, but it will be back in the fall.

Pictured here are the Vegan Grapefruit and Mint salt bars. They smell fantastic and are the perfect hand size!

This is Patches.

She is delicate and smaller in size like her mom, she is polled, and her base coat under all that white I *think* is cou clair, or a combo, and she’s very friendly.
Her mom came from Flat Rock farm, and her sire is an Exotic son. (I’d link pedigrees here but apparently ADGA is down this second.)

I apologize for picture in the messy ground feeder - but every other time I try and take a photo she’s up in my business. 🤣

However, her small stature makes her low on the pecking order in the baby pen, and so she is looking for a new zip code in a herd that is less boisterous.

She will go with her ADGA reg application in hand, and she is fully weaned, and UTD on her vaccines.

She is 6️⃣0️⃣0️⃣
