Poor Nala is really missing her kids today and she's been crying for them hoping they answer her 😢 I hate this part.

17/04/2024

Well that's it Nalas kids are gone to their new homes and Bo peep and her kids have gone off to their new homes now too. 😢. All seem like they will be wonderful homes and love and care for them as they should be.

This last baby American Mades little buckling is gonna be my heart breaker as he is just the sweetest little thing but I'm very happy to see him go on the 24th to his new home and bring back our final addition from her herd. We will be welcoming in this gorgeous silver boy named Winship Farms WALL-E.

16/04/2024

Rz Acres Valentino!!! He's so stinking handsome already and only a few weeks old!!! Can't wait to see what he produces for us. Bonus is he is polled too!!!

14/04/2024

Well its gonna be weird for a while Cruz has been gone for over a week at her new home and today Jasmine and Dottie left for their new home!

I am super happy to hear how quickly everyone has settled in though and how quickly they all became as sweet as they were here with their new owners!!

Whats funny is everyone says bottle babies are the only sweet goats yet all 3 of these girls were all dam raised and warmed up very quickly with their new people!!!

Loving the updates 🥰🥰🥰
They will be missed though 🥹

08/04/2024

This weekend is a big one here.

Jasmine and Dottie are pending for a very nice new home 🏡

Nala and Bo Peeps little bucklings are going to be named Bert and Ernie also leaving for their new home as wethers

Bo Peep, her doeling and Nalas little doeling are going to their new home 🏡 early next week as well.

We will miss them all dearly but feel we have vetted and picked wonderful loving families for them all to live out the rest of their lives with!! 🥰

💥Nigerian Dwarf Goats 👀 Responsible Homes

Welcome to our farm, where we take pride in raising Nigerian Dwarf goats of exceptional quality. Our commitment goes beyond just providing registered goats; we prioritize every aspect of their care, ensuring they receive the best nutrition, health checks (disease testing for CAE, CL, & Johnnes), attention and socialization.

🌿 Comprehensive Care and Investments:

• Daily care involves providing high-quality hay, loose minerals, fresh water, and comfortable bedding.

• Our personalized feeding regimen considers each goat's specific needs, including gender, pregnancy, and lactation, costing a healthy amount.

• We maintain a fully stocked medicine cabinet to promptly address any health concerns, as veterinarians often lack specialized knowledge in goat care.

💡 Devotion and Responsibility:

• Raising Nigerian Dwarf goats requires dedication, time, and financial investment. It's not just about selling goats but ensuring they are placed in environments where they can thrive physically and emotionally.

• As responsible breeders, we prioritize the well-being of our goats above all else, and we seek owners who are equally committed to providing the best care.

🏡 Finding the Right Homes:

• We're looking for individuals or families who understand the responsibility of goat ownership and are prepared to provide a nurturing environment.

• New to goats is fine as long as you're willing to learn take recommendations regarding care and health and know that we are always happy to assist with questions or concerns years down the line.

• Serious inquiries are welcomed, as we want to ensure our goats are placed in loving and knowledgeable homes.

🐐 Goats:

• 2 two-year-old bucks

• 2 bucklings from proven dairy and show bloodlines (can be wethered)

• 3 does ranging from 9 months to 3 years old

• 1 nine-month-old doe from proven dairy and show bloodlines

If you're interested in welcoming one of our Registered Nigerian Dwarf goats into your family and are ready to provide the care and commitment they deserve, please reach out. Let's work together to ensure these wonderful animals find the perfect homes where they can thrive and flourish.

Update on day 4 of baby goat adoption to miss American Made!

06/03/2024

Today so far!!

06/03/2024

Our beautiful American Made recently gave birth to three babies, but sadly, one doeling was stillborn despite our efforts to revive her. Made, in her grief, has been a wonderful mother to her two surviving kids but hasn't quite been herself. Physically, she's fine, but it's evident she's been feeling down, and I believe it's because she knows she should have had three babies, not two.

Fortunately, just two days after Made kidded, a friend of mine, Amber from RZ ACRES Nigerian Dwarf Goats , had a doeling in need of a mother. Knowing Made's personality well, we thought, what if Made could foster and adopt this doeling as her own? This way, Minnie, the baby I intended to keep, would have a friend her size and age.

Today, Amber brought over EVE (pronounced Eva, like the Wall-E character), and we decided to give it a try. Made is special; she knows Eve isn't hers, yet she's gentle and sweet around her. She hasn't licked her yet, but she's allowing Eve to drink from her without any fuss. With my assistance and watchful eye, we successfully fed Eve straight from Made all day, and she's adjusting well from bottle to teat.

I'll post more updates and better pictures of Eve tomorrow, but for now, I can say that even though Made hasn't fully embraced Eve as her own, she seems happier overall. It's as if Eve is the missing piece she knew deep down she needed. 🥰

Babies!! It's been a long day babies are doing well. I have been having to help them latch on momma every 2 hours so hopefully before bedtime tonight they get the hang of it. Mom is being great and attentive to them and they all seem super tired.

Little update on Bo Peep. She's definitely close but currently still holding these kiddos hostage in her belly. I will update when she pops them out! She's 4 days past her due date so she can't hold them that much longer.. can she? 😅
