Goats Are Great

There couldn't be a better way to greet 2011 than by adding two beautiful dairy goats to our family (just role with me on this one...).

We are thrilled to welcome Amaya and Zoe to our crew of animals! 

These girls are really friendly and love to play.  It isn't easy to take pictures while being chewed on by several goats at a time, but here is a shot of Ella snuggling with Amaya.  

The most exciting part is that they are both pregnant and due to freshen (birth) this spring!  Although goats don't need a labor nurse (who does really?), I am pretty excited to have some birthing mamas on the farm.  And talk about the need for a lactation consultant.....these goats will make a gallon of milk per day!  I'm back in business. 


Anyone need some cheese?  Ice cream?  You know who to call.
