This is Stanley
disclaimer: this information is from a multitude of sources, hopefully more of it is fact rather than fiction.

With a belgard towards my herd of Guernseys I rush to the mailbox. Our Association Manager stated the impediments have been removed. Guernsey registrations will be free flowing from the ADGA office. A self-imposed four-month time period has our office staff in rush mode. The nine year wait is over, the excuses are gone, the Guernsey breeders are rejoicing.

Starting Monday Natasha will be working nonstop on Guernsey Registrations

This part is fact:
Make sure your contact information with ADGA is correct. Phone number and E-mail address. If you receive a phone call from a North Carolina phone number answer it.
Make sure you have money in your account to pay for your registrations. Any delays may cause you to lose your place in line.

Today I got the Ultrasound out and confirmed pregnancies on: Jassy, Josie, Sophia, Jolene, Fiori and Julietta = TAKE A LOOK AT THE BREEDING SCHEDULE!
http://www.hillsideacrefarm.com/2025-breeding-schedule.html

We retained heavily this year on guernsey doelings so most of them will be available for reservation! If you are at all looking at the Guernsey breed these are the reasons I love them!
Gentle, quiet, uncoordinated therefore easy on fencing lol, get along so well with my Nigerians, sweetest personalities in the world!, sweet milk like the Nigerians - all my customers LOVED my milk this year and 50% of it all year was guernsey and later in the year it became 90% and no one noticed!

We will start breeding in September for February kidding

We are breeding 18 does this year - so far that will be the most kiddings in one year. 5 Guernsey does and 13 Nigerian Dwarf Does. We are preparing our year for ADGA Plus DHIA testing and Linear Appraisal! I will be a host herd so let me know if you would like to be added to our stop. We have PLENTY of room for trailers and have a nice covered concrete pad for excellent scoring!

We will start breeding in September for February kidding

This right here is why I love the Guernsey breed! This is Sid, 4 year old mature buck in full rut! As gentle as can be while I placed a camera over the fence he is on to monitor who is in heat. He just wanted to be touching me, resting his head on my hip while I worked and never did anything rough or being a nasty buck. Just a very gentle giant! Love this breed so much!!!!
