My head shop turned into women created and supported products in a boutique.
Not really gifts but clothing and clearly none to fit the Average woman.
I think they could have support both shops.
If i ran the world there would be delivery from dispeniaries and bongs on BOGO all the time.

Our ole girl passed away in the middle of the night!!! She’s been with us for years and came to us already a few years old. This is Graces first Grand Champion Doe! And has produced amazing babies!!! Two of the Does in milk we have out here are her babies, on top of one baby doe and one Billy! We are extreme saddened by this lost! Knowing it’s coming and it coming is very different!!! We will miss her very much! But so glad her legacy will live on at our Farm!!!

One week ago we had bit on surprise in the field!!! We thought she was breed by our new male which would put babies due beginning of February! Even though we kept telling oher males away from them they must have gotten sneaky! Momma barely had a bag a few days before giving birth since we check at least once a week! Her bag is still small but babies are growing and eating well! Still no need for bottle feeding. Though we have it all ready when needed! Momma is a yearling and is first time momma and doing amazing! And yes all other momma's are now on watch to see if they will drop Nubians or drop nubian/dwarf crossbreds lol

We have added a new billy to our farm! Very excited to see the kids that come next year! ❤️

The last 8 hours have been rough. This morning I found our sweet little celestial on the ground crying out. I got on the phone with the vet and we figured we knew what it was. Ran her immediately to the vet and confirmed she had goat listeriosis. We knew the survival rate wasn’t good but we hoped we had caught it in time. Gave the medication to treat it We brought her home put her in the house with a warming lamp. About 2 hours ago she was lifting her head and trying to stand and was doing much better. Then about 10 min ago I came over to wash her bottom and give her the evening shots and meds and she was having issues breathing. Within minutes she had past away. This is extremely devastating! This was faiths last goat that survived the rough summer. She was also our surprise baby! And we loved her dearly! Keep faith in your prayers as she processes this lost.
Also pray that our others do not get it. It is not contagious but it is found within the environment. We have to wash the water buckets out in hopes it clears it away. And pray that it’s not within the field.

Just like human kids when they like to play hard they have the chance of getting hurt!
Miss Celestial jumped off one of the items out there to play on and broke her leg!!! She is locked up for 3 weeks to keep her leg safe and dry! She is allowed to walk around for a little while so her joints don’t get stiff.

So this happened at our 4H livestock show this past weekend. Grace won Grand Champion of overall dairy goat female!!!
