Wild Feather Ranch

This was our giveaway buckling this spring. We receive updates all the time and we know that he is so loved. That's what makes this all worth it

Chores with our Wild Feather CAS-P LEO

He’s my baby even though he belongs to my daughter (who loves him more than me; so she thinks 😏) this boy is going to be amazing and can’t wait to see his offspring.

Well I broke my rule again... Last night our mini Nubian Rocky Road was in heat and we attempted to breed her earlier but the young buckling we wanted to use wasn't quite ready so we missed her heats. He has gone through another growth spurt and last night he got the job done!

I guess if we're going to have one out of kidding season, what does one more hurt? Here's to April kiddos 😵‍💫😑🫠🫠

Before you come after me, in future when these goats come home.. you should know: these girls are ones I've literally told their owners I wanted if they ever parted with for literal years now. I'm excited the plans are finally coming together for them to make their way home. These girls are either someone who fits nicely into our genetic puzzle or someone who I've admired forever. These are the "my girls" in other people's herds if you've heard me talk like that..

I feel the need to explain myself because I swear we aren't adding more nigies, we aren't! We are cutting to make room for the big girls.. So when I got these calls this fall to start prepping for these ladies.. it just means we are going to have to be a little more strict on these cuts we've been planning. And maybe sooner than later. Our nigie group has been cut heavily the last two years and it's about where I really want it and some of our foundations have been made as well, so these will not really be culls but deep cuts. And this isn't happening real soon, but by spring.

So please understand, when you see these girls being announced this was all part of the plan in the first place. 🖤

Yesterday while we were working around the farm our original Stella, yes now there's kind of two...went into heat again.

She's been a tricky one so I went ahead and bred her out of my best judgement and sticking to my timelines 🫣 I need to see her get that second freshening in!

Who did we choose?? She was bred to our very own wild feather ha Donald Duck, an exciting jr yearling, maternal half sib to Ms Daisy (hence the Disney theme). He's going to be used quite a bit on our jr and yearlings for summer kids this year. We are really liking him so far! This breeding will be a line breeding on our Celtic Pride Farm blue moon boy who we love so dearly and is one of our foundation bucks. 💞

I don't have any good pictures of Donald except for baby photos so I'll try to add them but blue moon stamps nice HIGH very well attached udders on his progeny and nice clean shoulders. He and his kids have been commended on their shoulders many times over. Bringing in Harry (Donald's sire: redside CCQ Heir Apparent) should add some general appearance, length of body and has already corrected leg placements on his kids.

We hope this proves to be as exciting of a breeding as we are thinking. 💞
