We have our new buck! Tails for short. He's got some amazing genetics behind him with show-winning conformation, excellent udder structure, and great milking ability. Tails should really improve our lines here as we get rolling. So far he is pretty sweet and friendly and loves playing with the other kids!

He has been a great addition and has been busy adding some very nice resilient and sturdy genetics. We love his robustness and his ease of keeping weight even through rut. On top of that he's very well mannered and easy to handle and work with. I am just loving how his daughter (Poppy) is turning out this year. She's good looking and I think he added some good things. Can't wait to see what he's doing with udders.

Billy has been a good herdsire. He is currently for sale, however. We have two does out of him we've kept. Iris is the first and she's pretty and petite and is developing as a milker very nicely. I love the improvement in the udder on her compared to her dam. Ruby from this year is the second and she is also gorgeous. With the nicer udder he seems to throw on top of the pretty nice udder Gem already has, we're excited to see how she turns out next season. If he's still here this coming season, he may get used to try to get another polled doe. Paired with Tilly if she makes weight.

Daisy has been a great doe. She had twins last season and gave us a lot of delicious milk. This year she gave us one pretty huge doeling on Jan 5th that we're keeping. Daisy isn't the most correct, but she does produce a lot of milk. And for a dam raised herself, she's pretty level headed and easy to handle. She's currently giving over a gallon a day just like last year as a 2 year old 1st freshener. This is her 2nd freshening.

Iris is out of Daisy and Billy last year. She made weight right before breeding season so we were able to include her in this year's season. She's very pretty and petite and I'm liking how she is developing as a milker so far, though she's not producing as much. She is smaller and being a yearling 1st freshener, she will probably pick up in production next year. She kidded two polled bucklings December 22nd that have since found a home together. Nice easy birth and healthy babies.

We bought Gem along with Axel and Buddy. We didn't breed her as a yearling as she wasn't quite big enough. She is going to be coming on 2 years this year for first freshening. She kidded on December 10th and gave us one pretty little polled doeling. She has some good genetics and we are absolutely loving how she is developing as a milker. She's up to just under a gallon a day and has a nice udder that's very easy to milk. She is probably the most level headed, calm, and cool tempered doe here. I am happy she passed that on to her daughter this year. She did have some issues adjusting to the the stand and being milked, but stands perfectly now.

Ruby is the product of Gem x Billy and was born December 10th 2024. She has her momma's cool, calm demeanor. And she's polled on top of it. She is definitely here to stay! Seeing the change to the udder Billy put on Iris and Gem's nice udder, we're very excited to see how she does next season. I don't think she'll have an issue making weight, she's growing like a weed just like her friend. She has a such a pretty face like her mom. She's just hitting that awkward stage, but should even out soon.

Poppy is this years product of Daisy x Axel, born January 5th 2025. They gave us one gigantic 10lb 6 oz polled doeling. She is definitely here to stay! We can't wait to see how she develops over the year. I don't think making weight for breeding season will be an issue. Her and her friend are both growing like weeds and, both are gorgeous and very friendly. They're maturing nicely. I think we made the right choice in bottle feeding this year. And I just love the darker color she's developing most likely thanks to her sire.

Tilly has got some nice genetics and should really help improve our line of goats here as we get rolling. I am really liking what I'm seeing so far, and on top of that, she is just the sweetest little thing. She's the only one here that likes to come and just snuggle. Everyone else is pretty friendly and likes scratches and pets, but she wants to put her head on me and just closes her eyes. If she makes weight this year, we will breed her this year. Usually the ones born early in the year like this make weight, but her momma looked a little small, so we might hold off until next year. I like them to be at least 70 lbs before we breed. Some lines are a little slower growing and I don't mind waiting.

Fox On Fire OBR Tilly Jane
He is Gem's full sibling and they share a sire with Axel. He is wethered per breeder's request. We have him to keep anyone company that would otherwise be by themself. He's a sweetheart and will probably have a permanent place with us being everyone's buddy.
