Our newest kid

Like most kids, Emma had her own plans as to when she joined us and it wasnt according to ours or the drs plans. Emma was born two weeks ahead of schedule and weighed 7lbs 9ozs and 21 inches long.
Here is her first message to the world,
Our newest kid - Goats

Thank you!
shes a doll, and thankfully been a very good, but spoiled baby but of course thats of no fault of her own.
You know shes my kid when shes barley over a week old and has already been in TSC more than shes been anywhere.
I introduced her to the smaller goats while outside, i wish I had a camera with me as the expression on their faces was priceless and they all ran off doing the jumpy dance after a quick sniff

Ok, this is driving me crazy, I know two Tonyas with goats in monroe, but the farm name doesnt ring a bell, and I know I have told you both about this site, so, Which one are you?? I feel bad for asking but Im going insane trying to figure it out.

Well, if you are what you eat, shes getting some nubian/alpine and Nd milk, so I guess shes a mini nubian

I'm the lady with the Saanen Milkers that you talked to not too long ago. I think my dad told maybe your dad about us. I'm sure you will recognize us when you see us. My hubby comes in TSC , he's short and jolly His name is Michael. You probably remember him coming in buying goat food one time and he didn't realize he was not buying the "sweet feed." I think you were the one to suggest he go and change to the sweet feed. LOL. We have Nubian doelings also that are in the process of breeding so hopefully we will have some babies next spring. By the way, I would love to come visit your farm! And you are welcome to come visit mine. I have a crazy story to tell about this past week and my goats but I'm off to town so will post later.

Blessings, Tonya

Congratulations; such a beautiful baby. I must admit, though, the title led me to believe I'd see photos of a four-legged kid!

That was the point I dont know many other people on the forum and I just thought it would be something different.

Not my dad, but it was a customer of ours that I have befriended. If Im not mistaken he told me that he was talking to your father and you where cutting back?
Anywho, Im selling all the boers I have and going to dairy, theres just not enough profit in it and the thrill of showing is gone, at least with milk i dont have kids crying because they liked that goat, and i can do more with milk than meat. So far I have one nubian and three NDs but am thinking of getting a heavier milker.
Cant wait to hear your stories, to say Im bored is an understatement.
