REMY

This guy was born in 2016, stands approximately 16.1 and raced 52 times. He won 12 of them for around $400k. He ran in stakes races and is what we call a war horse. He does have some jewelry and is priced accordingly. But he’s got his head on straight, and will be a fantastic partner for someone that appreciates one who has been there and done all of that. Newly shod, newly vaccinated, with a new coggins. Can be seen on the farm after 7/2. You can schedule your appointment now. Located in brogue, pa. Two five zero zero 🥕

Just FYI to anyone waiting on me for my June 20th route. I am at dinner, will be sending out info soon. I’m still on the road. Enjoying an evening out.
And anyone else that is fairly local to me, I have MANY routes this month til the end of June. If you have something that needs shipped (and is easy to throw on), if you can get to me, I can probably do it. 😊

We have finally finished kidding with Feathernscale Baby Puddin 2*M AR FSVVEE 90 giving us FOUR bucks to choose from by Dragonfly TAL Leopold. One is being retained, as Pud is very special. One will go to my good friend Kelly Walsh, once Kyle picks out which one he wants. And hopefully the other two will find herds to be equally appreciated soon!

And, in two weeks I am making a very anticipated trip to Kansas. We absolutely cannot WAIT to welcome our new herd members!!!! Thank you to 𝒮𝓌ℯℯ𝓉ℯ𝓇 𝒯𝒽𝒶𝓃 ℋℴ𝓃ℯ𝓎 ℋℴ𝓂ℯ𝓈𝓉ℯ𝒶𝒹 for allowing us to add Old Mountain Farm Leopardite, Old Mountain Farm Caprice, Sweeter Than Honey Feta James, and Sweeter Than Honey Sonata.

Fun fact! I initially HAD to have Sonata because my first win with one of my own racehorses was with a mare named Sonata Gold, with my friend Natasha Santmyer up, in Boston.

Lots of excitement happening here! Pictures are my new logo, and our new buck Leo’s sire, who I am absolutely obsessed with! Old Mountain Farm JustPlainEd, photo credit to Old Mountain Farm. (Screen shot from American Jewell farm where he now resides!)

We are also super excited to find out that our 3 girls that came down from Cheryl at Denbow are in fact pregnant and due soon! She thought they were, UNH said they were not (via blood), their udders said they were, so I dropped bloodwork off today at Precision Diagnostics in New Holland... and now kid watch begins!!!!
Melanie and I will more than likely retain all does from Windy and Meadows doe. And due to Pud's age, I'll be watching her like a hawk and likely retain anything she gives me and love it dearly! ❤️. All 3 crosses should be phenomenal!

Here I thought my spring kidding was over!

What an amazing kidding season we have had!!!! We made some incredible upgrades to our herd this past year, and I am truly blessed by the additions that were made. Some of my homebreds have found new homes, others were bred to the new bucks, and lots of new blood found its way here. Look for the posts with retained kids, doe info, and buck info coming soon.
I have been making soap and goat products to get started for a few events and markets this year.
If we have interest, we will do some goat cuddling sessions.

I will likely not be offering many hatching eggs or chicks this year, as I have downsized that portion of the farm for now to focus on the goats!

Happy 2024 from us here at the farm!

Nigerian Goat Express Transportation will be making a trip from maine down to PA in mid March. If he is able to line up a few more trips he can move us up (our girls are anxious to move into their new digs!).
If anyone needs their animals transported I fully and absolutely recommend Dave. He takes it seriously and they won’t even know they’re in transport, so they’ll have no stress from it.

02/02/2024

Lots of bottle bucklings (wethers only) ready for their new bottle holders soon!!

Thank you so much Sinai Thunder for our new buck! Can’t wait to add his genetics.
I now have some phenomenal bloodlines to use and am so excited to see what will happen in the next few years!

Troy and I wrestled goats last week and drew blood on about 25… testing everyone that was 6 months and over (minus one that had recent testing).
I sent one whole pasture off for only CAE, one random buck off for only CAE, two bucks for full biosecurity screening, and a bunch of does for full biosecurity screening also.

Happy to report everyone came back negative. 😊
Disease free herd confirmed again! We have one really exciting new doe coming into the herd that we honestly are so honored and thrilled to be able to bring home.
❤️❤️❤️

Troy Lutz finished my first new chicken coop…. Only 7 more to finish now! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ it’s so beautiful! It of course isn’t to his standards (he has to fix the roof, he needs to stain it again, and the roosts aren’t in for the LF)….
It’s definitely been a labor of love… I think he’s only worked on it when it’s been days over 90 degrees 😵‍💫

Several laying hens… consistently laying. Available NOW! $20-30 each.

14/06/2023

It’s been a slow start this year! Lots of family stress…
Making some changes to the farm and much to everyone’s (my mom, Troy) happiness I am going to cut a few breeds from the chickens again. Mostly because I’ve made some exciting additions to the goats! We attended our first show and learned a LOT, we are beginning on milk test, and it’s a HUGE journey! We partnered with another farm and added a really nice doe and also a fantastic buck that we are both really excited about! look for posts soon introducing the new goats!

Need a stress reliever? Want to reward your kids for a great school year? Just want to get outside?!?!

Taking reservations soon! 🤗

07/04/2023

The largest outbreak of the highly contagious bird flu in American history continues, and Pennsylvania is at the epicenter.

21/01/2023

I have been down with Covid and Covid side effects since 12/22, so I have not updated.

But as of now I do not plan to offer chicks or pullets this spring. AI is still of great concern in PA, and I don’t plan to move many.

Look for an update when I have finally recovered fully. At this point who knows when that will be.

FYI going forward I have found out I will not be taking deposits to get on a waitlist, and will not be using waitlists. You will place a NONREFUNDABLE 25% portion of your total to guarantee your spot.

I have, as a business, gotten quite tired of being run over these past few years. 😅

02/12/2022

So excited to be back again this year! Bringing all sorts of lotions, sugar scrubs, milk baths, and lots of other surprises!

We are excited to welcome back Racing Feathers Farm 🐐 Offering goat milk soaps and a variety of gift ideas 🎁

12/11/2022

The Holly Fair opens in exactly 24 hours and we couldn't be more excited!! Start making your lists and planning your route through the halls and rooms filled with our amazing vendors. We can't wait to see everyone tomorrow!!

Fresh from my garden… and
Drying now to infuse in oils to be used in my soaps and lotions. Do you know where your products come from?

***Calendula benefits :
Calendula oil has antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties that might make it useful in healing wounds, soothing eczema, and relieving diaper rash. It’s also used as an antiseptic.
It may also delay the signs of aging! It’s been around for a long time, and it’s pretty safe to use.

***Chamomile may provide benefits for:
wound healing
inflammation
redness
eczema
hyperpigmentation
acne
free radical damage

And again! It’s all natural!

13/08/2022

Stay tuned… reducing my flocks as I’m focusing more on the goats and business. Will be reducing poultry breeds to have less work, and less cost as feed prices are very high.
My favorites will stay.
I have a few orders to get out that got delayed by the heat and those will go out this coming week if all goes well!

16/07/2022

Come see us this weekend at Downtown Westminster Farmers Market and Main St Market, Glen Rock PA!

25/05/2022

This weekend we will be at Field Fresh Farmers Market with soap, lotion, hand made wooden crafts, cut flowers and some select herbs from my garden to yours on Saturday!

I’ve got some extra Opal legbar and cream legbar pullet chicks as well as some easter egger straight run chicks. Straight run self blue and black Ameracauna also available. Alllllll the pretty egg layers.

Some a week old, some hatching right now.

Must pick up ASAP. Of course, NPIP AI clean and healthy, hardy chicks.
