WOW These really are dairy goats!!!!!
I never knew bucks had such developed utters???
I'm sure you will fix it. Looks like one of my screw-ups.
Good looking goats whether they are bucks or does.

I guess you are kind of new to this...

If you look at most folks websites, you will see that the bucks are always represented by their dams - sometimes their daughters and/or sisters.

Because the udder is what folks are interested in and we can't see an udder on a buck...

Genetics tell us that you have a strong likelihood of getting an udder similar to the dam's udder, providing of course you have some decent genetics to work with.

Oh, so much eye candy! I love Pizzazz.

The website looks/functions great, just one suggestion... adjust the aspect ratio of the picture of Copper Penny Mr. Right(on the main page). The distortion makes him look short bodied. It would look better to crop out some of the background on the sides than to be so scrunched.

I would think a different picture on the "Welcome to the Ranch" homepage. I don't know that 3 scrawny scruffy kids represent your farm well. Everything else is great!

Yep, I have to agree there, definitely not representative of your herd. Although I must say my eye jumped immediately to all those adorable puppies!

New to this I am. I was expecting to see a buck when I clicked on a link that represented a buck----learn something new every day.

Yeah....the picture of scruffy Saanen kids....this is what happens when your "web guy" is a business associate of your DH and doesn't understand ANYTHING about the goat world...

Need to talk to DH (who in now my web update dude (super handsome tho!) and see if we can change that.

Maybe the pretty puppies and pretty goats make up for it?

Y'all have no idea how hard this website stuff is...but onward and upward!!!

I did a graphic design stint with web design for 10 of my younger years. That image is no biggie for him to change. Just find a good, interesting image of your goats in a green pasture at your farm with plenty of open space on the right hand side for him to replicate that fade. Good lighting and color are a must. Keep it simple, just a few goats facing the camera. That image is perfect if it weren't for the condition of the goats.
