In 2023, 7 kids born on our farm – all bucks. That is a first for us. Four of the does were bred to our new guy, Ronald and Betty was bred with Milo. CLIFFORD 1 gold buck GEORGIA Two bucks CLAIRE Two bucks WILLOW Willow is 12 years old and doing amazing, but IMHO too old to be bred. It wasn’t planned, but she was bred. The birth did not go well and we had to call the vet for the first time during a kidding. My daughter noticed Willow was in labor, but that it didn’t look right. Sure enough, she had birthed the placenta first. As time went by, Willow occasionally tried pushing but nothing ..read more

2021 Kidding Season

In 2021 we had 11 kids born on our farm, from 4 different dams and 1 herd sire. Note for 2021: Typically, I do a yearly recap of kidding season. It helps remind me later of a few things specific to that year. It’s my journal. However, I didn’t write a recap in 2021 at all. Then, we didn’t breed in 2022. So, this quickie version was created quite a long time after the 2021 kidding season and is only noting the dams and how many kids they birthed.

2020 Willow & Tam Breeding

Willow is amazing! She had quads again. Tam’s sire is light buckskin, while his dam is a medium buckskin. Tam also is buckskin. Willow is a solid cream color with random spotting and roaning. She must be a carrier of the recessive black gene because she has birthed a number of black kids. Willow’s dam is dark gold with a belt and roaning. Her sire appears to be dark brown with random spotting. Willow has no issues, health wise. And, she has never had issues with birthing. But, it feels right for this to be her last kidding. She births so many kids at a time, and they’re good sized. It seems l ..read more
