| My Goat Story |
| My pygmy goat story started about 3 years ago when I was reading about them on the internet. I could not get over how "cute" they were. I continued to read and learn as much as I could about these interesting little creatures. I was very attracted to pygmy goats for a few different reasons. First and for most they would be pets to enjoy, I knew they were small so they would be great projects for my children to enter in 4-H, they don't require a huge area (pasture) and they won't eat you out of house and home! It sounded like a match made in heaven for me, so I started my search for breeders in my area. We started with a few does, that led to our own buck, and the rest is history:) My competitive nature wanted more then just 4-H shows, so we started looking for animals to improve our herd, which led me to Linda Morningstar(Spring Vale's Pygmy's) Jill Conklin(Dreamcatcher Pygmy's) and Wayne and Penny Clark (Salt Box Farm Pygmy's) We acquired some key pieces to the puzzle thanks to these folks. Jill and Linda both have been more then kind to me, answering my thousands of questions and really educating me on the pygmy goats itself, my very good friend Jenny from Trestlecreek Pygmy's has also been such a guiding light, not only is she knowledgeable, but a great friend too. I would not be where I am today without them. Everyone needs someone like this in order to improve your herd. They're willingness to share really made all the difference. This past year we finally have kids the ground. We bred two of our does Wildfire and Neka to Mighty Influence, he has already made a huge impact on my herd. The kids he produced are better then their mothers. This is crucial, everyone wants to move forward! I look forward this spring where I hope to have kids on the ground from both Mighty and Lady's Man. We are planning on spring babies, if all goes as planned:) I would highly recommend these animals to anyone, they are truly wonderful!! |
