Dahlia May's Farm

The “epic” storm really wasn’t all that epic, but when it moved in I milked in record time! Sid wasn’t impressed and refused to eat in the pen, wanted out to his feeding area, immediately turned back around, so I brought his fancy dinner plate to him and hand fed until he started eating on his own 🤷‍♀️. Then today I’m out shaving goats, hear thunder, tracking the lightening on my app and well, let’s just say the doe I was shaving and I ran in epic sp*ed to the barn as it started hailing and lightening just above our heads. She had to go potty after being on the stand so long being shaved and couldn’t p*e quick enough and run at the same time 😝

Goats will eat anything, my goats disagree! Goats won’t eat anything and everything. They’re just as picky as my children 😜. This is actually their “waste” left in the feeder from their morning feeding. We try to be sustainable where we can, so the cows will get all waste hay to support their growth and they act like we are giving them candy 🤷‍♀️.

Had a great time Clark County Goat Association - CCGA Barn in the USA show over the weekend! It takes a village to make a show happen and for exhibitors to be successful! Thank you to the show committee, thank you to folks who helped me handle, and thank you Mike and Kellie Brant who let me use her husbands strength and who took the fall for me with my buck who was a total a$$hat the first nights buck show! He’s bigger and stronger than me and by day 2, he’d left the building, literally jumped out of his pen to let an old Alpine buck know that he was bigger, smellier and better than him! Thank you Pam Gailey Iselin for letting me shove him in your trailer as it was closest to where we corralled him 😂

Kidding season is wrapped up for us FINALLY! I’ve never kidded into June, let alone the end of June. Eleanor gave us two doelings yesterday!

I do have Nubians available! I’m looking at my numbers and have to reduce the number in my barn. These animals aren’t culls, I simply need to readjust my time some and lesson workload to allow me to do some other things with my family. If looking for show quality kids or a new herd sire (young or mature), please reach out to me!

Everyone out enjoying some sun! Adi kept holding her nose up in the air admiring the warmth 🥰

Skipped the show this weekend to go to a regional race with my boy! Nothing like freezing cold, rain, hail and mud in a summer sport 😝. Many hauled out before awards, but he won second!

06/08/2024

This is what I do in all my “extra” time! I’m the sideline cheerleader for team Hafey!

06/07/2024

Clearly you forgot the directive in place with your employer! No kids before January, preferably February and kidding season hasn’t ended yet! Get back in the barn Princess 😂

We had a great day at the NWODGA District VII INBA Nubian Specialty Show.
My show string is very young this year, but despite that they did wonderful! I am so in awe of all the work work of the show committee for a record Nubian Specialty with 79 Sr Does, and just as many Jr Does! I’ve never seen so many Nubians in one place, except at Nationals! I feel very blessed for how well the girls did! Thank you everyone who jumped in to handle when I needed help! Your support is invaluable!

My son and I went to the Udder Spectacular yesterday in Monroe and had a great time! I only took a few milkers and kids with me. Dahlia May’s Farm LG Cara won junior GCH! This is a dry yearling I almost sold as a kid cause she walked funny 😂. Goes to show that you have to trust the growth process sometimes. She wasn’t impressed being at the show without her sister 🤷‍♀️.

Additional highlights include
Dahlia May’s Farm Y Lotus first in class 2yo in two rings.
Dahlia May’s Farm FN Rhapsody first in class yearling milker in all three rings.
Dahlia May’s LG Genesis first intermediate kid in all rings
Dahlia Lay’s LG Firebird first senior kid in class in all rings

Left for a show yesterday afternoon knowing a yearling was due Wednesday. She didn’t look anywhere near kidding! On my way home my friend who’s milking for me sends me a message to call ASAP! She found these two up and dry and mama standing over them talking to them. Luckily she kidded on her own and had no issues! Buck and doe twins from Dahlia May’s Farm WA Wren.

05/23/2024

I am heading to Monroe this Friday and Salem next weekend! Happy to throw in a wether companion for anyone looking to add milk, gorgeous dairy conformation out of one of my best dam lines in my herd! Contact me for more information! Located in Olympia, WA

I’ve always wanted a creme nubian, but isn’t it a little off 😂

05/11/2024

I used to live in Alaska and wished I could see this more with the naked eye, but it was amazing!

05/09/2024

Jokes on you lady! Celeste says she knew Corvair was playing me when she kept coming through the grain line and apparently slipped her pregnancy at some point. She sure does look healthy and happy though 😂. I’m disappointed I won’t have any kids from her this year.

05/08/2024

When most are finishing kidding season, I’m now all set up for the rest of kidding season 😂. I’ve never had does kid so late. It’s going to be a long drawn out season, but I have some exciting breedings coming up to kid! I still do have a new herd sire available and transport heading east in a couple weeks!

Yesterday we loaded up early in the dark and headed to the second annual Kitsap Dairy Goat Show! Several of us teamed up to put the show on and it went well! Thank you to all my team members who made the show a success! Thank you to all the ring sponsors and herds that put together prizes for ring winners and BIS! I do so enjoy smaller shows!

The girls did well!

I can offer transport in the coming weeks to Monroe, Salem and as far south as Roseburg.

My view after I finished milking this morning. Valentine decided the grass on the other side of the fence was greener, fresher, and better tasting! I have no clue how much he weighs, but certainly weighs more than my fence can handle 😂🤪🤷‍♀️. Took me awhile to convince him to go back into the field. He did do a little hike through my husbands sod lawn, the front yard, over the compost pile, and back around again. Grain wasn’t worth it to him to entice him to follow me 🙄
