Even with our small herd it’s difficult to remember all the identification and medical records for each goat. To keep track and stay organized I created a few worksheets to help me manage our goat family. I am offering these sheets as free downloads that you print at home. You will need the latest version …
Wingman comes from the first goat kids born on our farm, which means he’s also one of the first goats to be registered with our Plentywater name. His dad, Crash, has good lineage so I kept Wingman as a way to carry on such good genes. I also love his tan with roaning coloring. He …
Wyldestyle is quite appropriately named. I love her. She has a lot of personality and is a favorite of most everyone who comes to visit. But, she likes to escape. She was a tiny thing, weighing only 2.4 pounds, when born. She was raised by her mama, but also bottle fed. Her coloring is somewhat …
Moon is one of the newest additions to our herd. She’s fitting in well and is very mild mannered. Her only flaw, as far as I can tell so far, is her constant need to want to escape every time I open and close the gate.
We were looking for a herd sire. Tam’s family history seemed to fit what we were in search of. We haven’t had him long, but he’s getting along with his pasture mates, Sven & Vern.
Bunny is our second milking doe. We recently brought her home, so we are just getting to know each other. So far, I love her. She is very mild mannered. She had never been hand milked prior to coming to our house. You would never know it. She gives me very little trouble at milking …

When I realized Willow surely was pregnant I began researching the items I would need for the birth. Willow had kidded multiple times, but this was a first for me. So I had to purchase most everything we would need.
Last week we had our first kidding on our little farm! Thankfully Willow is an experienced mother and everything went perfectly.
I brought home Crash with the hopes to breed him to Willow, and later Georgia. He’s a very easy going fella.
