Sharing a few photos from our buck collection with XCell Genetics. It was a morning full of learning and laughs with some great local goat breeders. I've already had interest in a collection next year so contact me if you'd like to join us.

We are having bucks collected by XCell Genetics today so let's hope our baby buck, Ilene's Rascals Winning Ticket, delivers for us! Watch for photos of the big event.

RETURN TO OFFICE SALE
I have to reduce our herd significantly due to return to office requirements. My commute is 2+ hours/day so I have to part with goats that I would really prefer to keep in the herd. Yearlings, Does and bucks available. Will be adding more this week.

Unfortunately I have to reduce our herd significantly due to return to office requirements. Working from home has been a joy and has allowed much more time to care for the herd. The commute for me …

We didn't get to go to the Bluff Country show this weekend because our truck had transmission issues and we had to turn around and come home. 😭 But there is always work to be done so Clayton spent the evening mowing pastures.

We have a few openings for weekly pick up of our fresh premium Nigerian Dwarf goat milk . Our Nigerian milk is so sweet and creamy that many people prefer it over cow’s milk. And if you are a cheese maker, you’ll find the higher protein content of Nigerian milk gives higher cheese yields than other dairy breeds.
$7/ half gallon.
