Been in your shoes - it is never easy losing one.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had a Sadie that I lost in 1983 and it still bugs me. It wasn't a good ending. Now I have another Sadie and she ended up with a precocious udder just like my 1st Sadie. I hope your Sadies daughter will follow in her footsteps.

((HUGS)) I found out the hard way, goat diseases strike hard and take them away quickly, almost before you can get a handle on what is going on.

She is beautiful. I am so sorry for your loss.

You know that is really funny. My Sadie had a precocious udder as a yearling and now her yearling daughter Penny has one :P. Sadie will live on in our daughters in our herd. It is weird not having her in the herd with our girls. Her kids are doing awesome though going to the bottle and I have a home lined up already for the two boys. They are going to be pets and it sounds like the new home is going to be AWESOME for these guys. I am so thankful. I normally am not to attached but I REALLY wanted these boys to have a really amazing awesome home as pets. God answered my prayers!

I'm so glad you found a good home for the boys. You needed something positive at a time like this. I actually got my girls from Marissa and Sadie sure has some nice FF teats, so easy to milk. They're sired by her Fir Meadow buck.
