Changes with My Little Goat Herd

My little goat herd changed again last Sunday (10-26-14)... long story short I sold Tulip & Star back to my friend Sarah over at Life At Goodwife Farm, visit her blog I know she will sharing the news soon. Tulip and Star have been with me about 3 years, I have learned so much from having them start my herd... my Cocoa & Chloe are Tulips daughters, they are my main girls now.  Cocoa was born May 2012 and Chloe Dec. 2013. I still have my two Nubian bucks Ringo & Silo.  The day Tulip and Star left they both were in heat they went on a date with Silo, hopefully they are bred and will be due to kid around March 2014... I will be getting two doelings from them. I plan on breeding Cocoa to Silo the next time I catch her in heat.

Comet went to his new home today...

Comet was goin to another farm but things changed as of last night... I was wondering what I was gonna do with him, I couldnt keep him so I thought Rachel would love a nice sweet surprise... she was wanted Comet just about since he was born... guess it was meant to be.  (Plus Rachel does nice things for me too... like letting Flicka live at her farm right now.) I took him to her farm this morning... and she just thought I was surprising her with a batch of brownies or something, lol

Silo is Ringos shadow

Silo came to live here 3 days ago, he still cries but not as much, each day is better. He has really takin up with Ringo, that makes me so happy.  He really is Ringo's lil shadow.  Its so cute to watch them munching in their area, I hung out and took pics of them today.  Ringo will pull down tree limbs to eat the leaves and Silo nibbles too.  

Something must have been pretty yummy they didnt even notice I left.

My whole for now herd... plus one

We've had some goat breakouts in some of my other areas so this morning I just put the whole herd together... they're loving it and everyone is being good. Honey & I will have to do some repairs in the other areas this weekend... I hope.  Lets see theres The Queen Tulip with her 3 kids Miss. Pearl, Comet & Clover (Miss. Pearl and Comet will be leaving to go to their new homes around May 21), then theres my bottle baby Spirit, then Tulips doeling from last May Cocoa, I have her sister Dolly here too (she'll be goin back to her farm soon), then theres Stars May 2012 wether Boots & Feb. 2013 wether Willie (they will be leaving to go to their new home tomorrow), then theres my new doeling Itty Bitty and then theres my two bucks Ringo & Peanut... I decided this morning I'm giving Peanut to my friend Rachel on the term that I still get to use him for buck service if I want.  So by the middle/end of May my herd will be: Ringo, Tulip, Cocoa, Itty Bitty, Clover & Spirit. Thats gonna be a huge change and a nice, peaceful slow down til next kidding season.
