This is Cassidy!!
I love goats! I'm a farm girl who began raising these amazing creatures 4-5 years ago. Someone had recommended goats to us to help keep our lagoon down...so we bought three. Well...let's just say that eventually one of our does got pregnant, had a baby girl, and the goats haven't been in the lagoon very much ever since! Here's to goats! :)

Goat News
So far no new babies yet. We've been expecting some here for a while from Cassidy, Essie, and Valorie once again. Don't know when they're going to kid. For some reason those mothers never weaned their babies they had back in February and March (6-7 month ago!), so we had to separate them from their babies. It's going to stay that way until they kid (who knows how long that will be!). I think it's because the mothers were "first-timers" and they didn't know exactly how or when to wean the kid...so we're gonna do it for them. :) Anyway, June and July babies are growing! We wethered Brownie and Hosea a couple weeks ago. Cocoa is becoming a little "lady" as she is almost 3 months old. "Hosi" (as I like to call him") and Brownie have good size horns coming in as well...they are very manly boys I must say. We have 5-6 goats we'll be selling for sure when that time comes. Probably more once these new babies are born. I'll have a post of new signs of labor and kiddings when things start happening...can't wait! (also...should be having goat pics soon!)
