  • WTF is THAT?!!

    First foray outside for the latest goat kid, and Pringle the cat isn’t quite sure what to make of it. Aren’t they gorgeous? And finally, a kiss <3

  • Welcome to the World, Little Chap

    There’s something about cold, wet evenings that seems to encourage goats to give birth. Welcome to the world little chap.

  • Stuck Kid

    Goats, when left alone, spend their time plotting new and ingenious ways to escape and frustrate me, trapping themselves in ever more inventive ways in the process. This youngster is no exception, and has managed to get himself stuck in between these fences. His brother was in there too when I was alerted by their more »

  • Goat kids 2017

        All say Awwwwwww!                 The little chaps above belong to Schneckle, and we’re glad to see them safely arrive as it seemed to have been the longest pregnancy ever! The downside of keeping Mr Goat with the ladies is we don’t have a expected due date more »

  • Scout Camp 2016 – Milking the Goats & Feeding the Pigs

    One of my favourite activities with our annual Scout camp is teaching the Scouts to milk the goats. This year we’ve also had the pigs so the braver Scouts were hand feeding them. All fingers still intact 🙂 Lots of photos, proof for the Scout’s parents that they really were on a farm and not more »

    We’ve bid a fond farewell to this year’s goat kids this week. Lovely though goats are, I was finding that I had too many to manage alone when it came to walking them. So the kids, along with some of the adults, have been rehomed elsewhere and I’ll be concentrating on a smaller group for more »

  • Pygmy Goats For Sale

    All sold now, thanks.  With this year’s kids coming along well, we’ve now got more goats that we need. So I’ve decided to concentrate on the larger goats, selling the pygmy part of the herd. I have available – 2 x adult milkers, both proven mothers who have each produced two sets of healthy twins more »

  • Schneckle’s Surprise

      Schneckle has surprised us with an unexpected pregnancy, and gave birth to a pair of beautiful twins in the the early hours of yesterday morning. Having only arrived with us at the beginning of October, Schneckle must have fallen pregnant within a very short time. Go girl! With a busy summer ahead I’ll be looking to more »

  • Kylie’s Kids

    In the manner of goats everywhere, Kylie has again surprised us. Horny and Misty have been wandering around like overstuffed sofas for weeks and weeks, but Kylie just started looking a little more solid than normal about ten days ago. I’d realised she was pregnant, obviously, but not appreciated quite how far along she was. more »
