Well, we have managed to get through the holidays without much fan fare - and unfortunately, without any "kids"! We are waiting not so patiently for the arrival. We currently have 7 does bred and 3 of them should be kidding sometime soon (that translates to, we didn't keep close enough tabs / records on when breeding occurred to know EXACTLY when!) This will definitely change next year.
While we're waiting, we've been working on upgrading the feeders and trying to find new and improved ways to keep goat feet dry in our very "wet" world! For those of you that may be geographically challenged, we are located in the northwest part of Washington state (the Olympic Peninsula) just 16 miles across the Strait of Juan de Fuca from Victoria, British Columbia. Keeping feet dry in this climate is more challenging than trying to corral goats without feed!
Stay tuned, I'll make sure that we get baby boer goat pictures posted as soon as we can!
Just things to share about life on our farm.
