Science is Fun & Genetics are Fascinating!

Please keep in mind this information is primarily for me. I’m posting it publicly in case others are interested. However, I don’t claim to know all the things. This is my method for keeping records of the genetics because I find it fascinating and I’m trying to educate myself.

Claire is Bunny’s kid and was born on our farm. She is a bit stand offish and is very vocal. If we had a contest for the loudest goat in our herd, she would definitely be the winner.
