I am focusing more on the bigger goats - Kinder and Kiko with Nubian still in the mix. I hope that within several generations that I might have a bigger, meatier, milkier goat that serves several purposes. I have found over the last couple of years that most of my customers are of certain ethnic groups and they like the bigger goats. Young goats - but bigger goats.

I think there will always be a market for the cute little guys, but it's a real pain to keep them separate. (even though they are much easier to handle)

(But by next week I might change my mind and go in a totally different direction, lol!)

Now you've got me talking goat-I brought up my conundrum on my journal!

Sounds good to me! Will you get a kiko doe too?
I've tossed it around - and I may - but it will be a little down the road. I really want to do the crosses with my Nubian does. My fantasy is to have moon-spotted Kiko looking goats, lol. Wouldn't that be a hoot!?!

(Having some kiko does to cross my Nubian buck on might be fun!)

So glad that your sweet husbands eyesight is better! Poor man has had a tough time. Of course that means you have too. Conan is adorable, I’ll bet there will be a market for his kids.

Sitting in the doc office waiting to get my shoulder looked at and a referral to an orthopedist, hopefully, for a cortisone shot....ugh.
