The girls are happy. We brought our daughter’s buck “Bison” for a visit. Tired of listening to them whine in heat. Looks like we’ll be doing another kidding. They all got well acquainted today. Gestation calculator says we will be as busy on Memorial Day weekend as they were today. 😜

UPDATED! Oh to be a carefree “kid”. These are some of this year’s crop of two to three week old bucklings expressing their morning joy. We have available 2 polled (one is king of the mountain at the end of this video and another is the light one running); also one birthing on the way. Contact me here or by private message for updated pictures and info!

UPDATE! All moonspotted have a home. We are in Lancaster County, PA. All pictured are around 2 weeks old. See other post for polled non-moonspot offering. All are registerable Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats with nice lines in their pedigrees but can be made available as discount unregistered. These bucklings are third generation in our closed herd. The only introduction to this herd in the past 4 years is sire service. We are downsizing to the two old matriarchs because of personal family health reasons.

It's a goat-day-afternoon. Baby Mo still available and he's sitting there pretty with mama lookin' right at ya! 150 w/o papers or Best offer! (Midge on the old desk with last year's retained doeling M&M (emmy) behind her and this year's twins Molly and Mo in front). Olive (top left) did not settle. Mygoat (center) was deliberately given the year off, and she is quiet, not noisy like the others when in heat and not bred. And Myra (top right) had no trouble loudly proclaiming her heats every 21 days, they just came at times when I couldn't just drop everything and load her up to run for a date with the buck. Hope to breed her this fall for next spring. Pen breeding is way easier than driveway breeding, but just don't want them all kidding annually with my work schedule. Midge's doe this year is also being retained for a family member, but her little buck Mo is still available! Good genetics. Great udders. Good conformation. But alas, no fancy coloring on this buckling and no blue eyes and he's not polled, so he's gotten zero interest. Midge is polled and so is M&M, but Midge's twins this year are both disbudded, not polled. Anyone need a disbudded, vaccinated ready to go healthy little buckling or little wether buddy? Born 5/5/18. Dam is very long and deep. Great udder with real capacity. See original post on Mo below

This bit of news made my day! Wow! Something in common with the President I most admire. I met President Ronald Reagan at a Newspaper Farm Editors invitation to the White House in 1985, handed him a Livestock Reporter (newspaper that I wrote for at that time) and he said he'd read it on the plane on his way to the ranch. Always knew he had cattle, but to know THIS and that he was also a dairy goat enthusiast is just awesome!

Did you know this American President and ADGA Lifetime Member proclaimed the 2nd Saturday to 3rd Saturday in June "National Dairy Goat Awareness Week?" The First National Dairy Goat Awareness Day: https://go.adga.org/2sP41wx

Midge had twins. They look almost the same except the doeling has frosted ears and some black on her face and the buckling has tan ears, no frosting and very little if any black on his face. She had her choice of two sheds but chose to step into the old sandbox under what is now a goat-jungle-gym to have them outside but protected and somewhat private in terms of the other girls bothering her. All are warm and doing well in the shed before the drizzle turned to rain. We missed the first one, got out in time to see the second one land. Good girl!
