DesertHardt Dairy Goats

Whew!! 😥

Was March a blur for anyone else or just us?? Somehow we were able to sneak in TWO milk tests (23 daysys apart). Our goal is to smash out as many tests before our busy show schedule & awful Arizona heat arrives!

You’ll notice a few does did drop quite a bit between tests, I had a few go off feed for a few days and because of it it took a toll on milk production. Happy to report they’re back up and eager to get another test in to make up for the drop. Few does also need to be added onto our next test, they were to fresh at the time.

Flashy kids are always Lil Miss B Haven Gold Strike's specialty!! I've got two of his daughters in milk currently and, oh boy, are they nice! Solid bone structure, wide rumps and yet nicely balanced, so dairy strength isn't lost.

Doeling is retained, potentially one of the bucklings is too. I don't need another buck🫣😬, but come on!!
Trouble x Gold Strike, match made in heaven; their 2023 2F daughter is stunning.

💙Second buckling is available; message me if you want to add insane milk production to your breeding program!! I'll get stacked photos later this week!!

Only 20 days fresh & sporting a 15 hour fill🔥 It’s always exciting when a FF shows up with this udder & you knew exactly how it was going to look WHEN I BRED THE DAM & SIRE! Ohh little Sami, I’m excited for your future. I can’t wait for her to be a few months into her lactation👏🏻😮‍💨

(SGCH Desert Bounty F Trouble 5*M VVEE91 X Lil Miss B Haven Gold Strike)

Showcasing an honest, working 12 hour fill at only EIGHT DAYS FRESH🥵😮‍💨 Might I add she only had a single…

**I included her FF udder from last year, at only a few days into milking. Don’t give up on the first fresheners to quickly.

First milk test for our 2025 season took place back on February 7th👏🏻 So excited to have the girls back in milk & back on test for another lactation!

Pleased with our somatic cell count🙌🏼 was a bit worried with Kenya (Upper Hand) being so fresh but she proved otherwise.

Had blood drawn & tested on the herd last week, & as expected the herd came back NEGATIVE!! Q-Fever results will be emailed to me next week, I missed that test by one day but it’s being done👍🏼 Find those results later on my website.

February Check-In🥵

The days are becoming a blur tbh, working long days & then coming home to tend to the herd, kids & all the chores. We’ve got two more does due this coming week to close out our February births. Then we get a nice break until our anticipated March kiddings.
