"Goat Dreams"


"Spring Dreaming"

 Spring days are getting longer and warmer at High Meadows. After a morning of games and a belly full of mom's milk the kids settle down for a nap. What
do little goats dream of ...green fields, king of the mountain, other little goat girls and boys ? Who knows.
One thing is for sure...nothing is more peaceful than a pile of goat babies sleeping in the sun.

"All Things Bright and Beautiful"


 The 2013 kid crop is on the ground and looks very promising. We are using a new junior buck and he is throwing color like crazy. The nice calico twin doelings shown below will be going to the AKI Sale in September.

"School of Hard Knocks"

"Is This To Close?"
This is the first kidding season Sam and Badger have been allowed to be in the same pasture with the does. The learning curve is pretty steep and there are lots of anxious moments as the dogs witness and attend the kidding. The dogs must
learn to be attentive without getting to close to the does or they
may get knocked to the ground. Watching the kids play without joining in is tough and the desire to chase kids must be overcome.
