Just got my kinders today

My wife and I just bought a kinder buck and two kinder does. The buck came from Kinder Corner in South Illinois and the two does came from Harmony Hill Farm in Missouri. I am very impressed with the goats and the people who raise them. We are very excited!

I'm not really sure how to post pics. I'm a bit of a computer moron.

You need to get an account at someplace like photobucket (its free), upload the pics there. Once they are uploaded, if you hover over the pic a list of links will appear under the pics. Select the IMG link, copy it and then paste it into your post on here.

Congratulations on your new goats. Now, go get those pics!

Congratulations!

Now, if you don't want your wonderful new goats to fade into nonexistence, you need to go to photobucket, upload pics fast, and post the IMG links here. Your goats lives DEPEND upon this!!

Suuuuuweeeeet! A fellow Kinder owner! We were feeling a little all alone here.

We hope you enjoy them as much as we like ours. We have a sturdy little milker and her three kids. Mom is pretty agreeable to being worked with so long as we stick with the routine. She's affectionate and well mannered. Her young wether is a real clown. He's a sweet fellow, with just a slight Dennis the Menace streak, always sidling up for scratches or to chew on a button or tug on the strap of your overhauls. His sisters are a bit shyer, but curiosity always gets the best of them.

Mom is a very easy milker and she has been producing very well for us. We've had no health problems, with the usual maintenance, and ours are not very noisy either. (usually complain about dinner time to remind us that there IS a schedule and THEY'RE on it.

We're beginners and these have been perfect for taking us around the learning curve.

PM me if you're having trouble posting pics. We can exchange emails, you can email them to me and I can post them for you, and/or give you a quick tutorial.

Congrats.

LF

Congratulations! I would really love to see pictures too please! You can do it, just go to photobucket & upload photos there then copy the img code & paste here in the reply box. I am computor illiterate too & I can't even tell you how many times someone had to help me post pictures until I could do it on my own. Thank goodness for nice people here or my goats would all be nonexsistent too! Hahaha!
