Sad Days

 Sadly, on Thursday evening when my daughter went out to separate the bucklings from their mommas for the night, she found little Banjo dead.

We believe he got overheated.  It has been really hot for the past month, and I did see him panting the day before.

Poor Fiddle is still calling for him.

Pumpkin Spice Time is Coming!

 Autumn is almost here!  
The evenings and mornings are cooler.  
The days are getting shorter. 
And the goats are getting frisky!

Fall breedings begin late this week! I can hardly believe we are here.  
Primrose will finally be bred to Ivry. 
Bettina is also in with Ivry.  
Prayerfully, she will be bred this season.

 

 

Three does, four bucklings, five days!

 What a whirlwind!

After Fiddle kidded with the cutsie little Banjo, Faith followed two days later with twin bucklings, Honor and Curiosity (Curi, for short).  Then two more days later, Onyx kidded with a single, adorable buckling named Flint.

All mommas and bucklings are doing very well.  Fiddle and Faith made it our with their boys to graze today, but Onyx stayed in her pen.  I'm certain she'll be up to grazing with the girls before the end of the week.
