This is such a great idea. You can even get the same tree each year. ❤️

These 2 amazing mini-nubian doelings are ready for their own herd!

We are a small homestead located in Southern Colorado.
These 2 sisters, Ginger and Ginseng, have been disbudded, vaccinated (CD&T), dam raised, and are amazingly friendly!

We focus heavily on:
🔹️milking genetics (udder, udder attachments, teat size & placement, ease of milking, quality and quantity of milk)
🔹️Conformation
🔹️Personality

This beautiful Mini-Nubian boy is ready for his new (pet) home! He is absolutely stunning with his moonspots and will make a wonderful pet (he even doubles as w**d eater)!

He is disbudded (de-horned) and banded (castrated), so he will stay cute and playful forever! He won't ever turn into a stinky buck who humps everything and pee's on his own face 🤣

He will stay under 100lbs, so he is legal within Colorado Springs city limits. ❤️

There is something so amazing about going back in time and making food for your family using recipes that have been used for hundreds and hundreds of years. ❤️

Believe it or not, this is my 1st ever loaf of sourdough bread! I've been homesteading for over 10 years but I've never made sourdough!

It's never too late to learn a new skill!

Meet "Magnolia" and "Marigold"!

These sweet mini-nubian girls are from my absolute favorite doe, "Millie Rose" and they are ready for their own herd! They will be stunning milkers and come from top-notch genetics. Their lineage is jam-packed with milk stars, including both their dam and their sire. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
(Check the comments if you're interested in udder photos of their dam.)

We've got fresh, raw goats milk available! Each share is 1/2 gallon per week.

It tastes JUST like cows milk, so don't be scared. But it's so much better for you than cows milk. There are so many health benefits to drinking raw goats milk. In fact, many people with a lactose intolerance can drink goats milk. ❤️

Did you know that sinking your jar of fresh milk into an ice bath helps keep it tasting fresh longer?

Are you looking for an amazing milker to add to your herd?
Look no further!

Are you looking for an adorable pet goat or a companion for a goat that you already have?
Look no further!

We have some babies who are available to take home!

Another sweet reunion between the babies and their Mama's this morning ❤️

We separate them at night so that I can milk the mama's in the morning. I do this for a few reasons:

1. It bumps the Mama's milk supply because they will suckle for milk when they are back together. Since her udder is empty and they are suckling, it signals to her body to make more milk.

2. It encourages the babies to start eating some hay when they are hungry, which (in my opinion) helps make weaning a bit easier for them.

3. It helps them gain a little independence while still being within eyesight and earshot of their Mama's.

4. For those of who who milk test, it helps set up a routine of separating Mama's and babies so that when we have to do so for milk testing, their supply doesn't plummet from stress.

💙 This is our friendliest baby boy this year 💙

He'd make the perfect pet or companion goat! He has already been disbudded and banded, so he can live in the city or on a farm!

Coming soon! Raw goats milk soap!!!! (These will need to dry for about 6 weeks)

My sweet Millie Rose is SUCH a great mama ❤️
Come to think of it, she's amazing in every single way. She is friendly, she gives us so much delicious milk, she hops right up on the milk stand every day and stands so nicely while we milk her. She doesn't even care if we hand milk or if we use the milk machine! And her udder is absolutely beautiful.

She is a dream goat!
(PS: She has 2 daughters that will be 8 weeks old on August 17th. But, just a heads up, we are most likely retaining one because they are pure perfection!)

All babies have been disbudded, and boys have been banded!
We have some extremely sweet babies this year. So, if you're looking for a doeling who will grow to be an amazing little milker or a sweet little wether to be a pet, we've got you covered!
