The Herd and the New Herd Additions

It is amusing to me when pictures come in sequence. The picture above is an amusing picture of the herd. As we drove in from grocery shopping Monday night, all the goats jumped up and came running to the gate to tell us how starving they were. Oh course you can all see the lush clover behind them. Ah well, it gives you a glimpse of the herd as it was Monday

And now, because we are all a little insane, I would like to introduce the two newest members of the herd. Lanney, on the left, is a 5 year old doe who stunned us with her General Appearance when she walked over. Keegan, who we loved on paper when we saw her pedigree was an easy choice once we saw her live. A very correct little yearling milker with a smaller but extremely strong udder she was by far my first choice.

These girls were so sweet once we got them home. Lanney acted like a perfect show doe as Jenn clipped her and clipped her hooves. Keegan is not as familiar with the milkstand, but even she is quickly adapting to the milking routine. I probably didn't need another goat, but honestly I am really glad to have these girls and will be happy to see what they look like come spring.
