Fainting Goat Bucklings for Sale
Even though we have thus far been unable (well, at least unwilling!) to sell any of our babies, it is really past time for us to let Hagrid and Dumbledore go on to new homes where they can fulfill their studly destinies! These two were born January 20th, and have received their standard vaccinations. They are 100% pureblooded fainters, the offspring of B's Barn's Kris Kringle and our (still-waiting-on-her-registration-paperwork) Lola. Kris is an excellent fainter, but Lola is not easily surprised! Both the boys are nice and muscular, growing very well, and healthy.
We spend a lot of time with our goats, so they are very friendly, accustomed to being around children and adults, and just all-around loveable. If you have any questions, comment here or email me.
Since we have been lax on their registrations, I would be willing to sell them for $150 each plus transportation costs.

Skunky's First Birth -- A White Doeling!
Meet Rudolph, named for her red little nose.
Here she is with her proud first-time mama Skunky . . .
In truth, I think she was hiding in one of our small dog houses all along, but she evaded my eyes and had me very worried! I spent most of my son's nap outside in the rain, looking around like a crazy person.
Rudolph's mama is one of our best fainters, so we are really excited to see how this little one turns out. So far, she is the 3rd doeling born on our farm, and like the other two, we don't think we will be able to let her go.
And here with the two-legged kids . . .
This little one was born on Wednesday, May 7th, and already she's given us a scare -- disappearing for a couple of hours this afternoon.

Annabelle, Our Newest Addition

New and improved, now with pigs!!
Today, our farm acquired two pot belly pigs, Oliver and Penelope. They are adorable!
They were both sleeping when we got home to play with them, but they woke up quickly and were wandering around the pen, terrorizing the goats until we decided they were better off living separately until they got used to each other.
I have wanted pigs my whole life, and so this is like a dream come true. We are expecting piglets over the summer, assuming these two get busy soon!

Fainting Kids Playing Outdoors
Lola Introduces Hagrid and Dumbledore
48 hours after Sassy gave birth to her doe twins, lovely Lola welcomed twin bucks, Dumbledore and Hagrid. True to his name, Hagrid was a half giant, and he and his brother were both born larger than Spaghettio and Meatball. They too began nursing very well and started showing off their bouncy personalities almost immediately.
Lola is a second-time mama, and this is her first twin birth.
